So I have had a chance to play a little bit of Final Fantasy Type-0, but I already can form an opinion of some things.
First off, it has one of the most overwhelming opening scenes I have ever watched. Final Fantasy games are known for their heartwrenching, gut punching drama. Type-0’s opening almost f***ed me up. No joke. I should start by saying it is the first FF game that I remember having blood in. And there is A LOT. Not only that, but right off the bat, it is pretty dark and brutal. I almost couldn’t watch some of the scenes just because of how brutal they were.
I can already tell you that this will not be lik
e any Final Fantasy game you have played before. Besides the storyline, the battle system is much more dynamic and interactive. It takes some getty used to, but I honestly think it’s one of the best (along with FFXII). The graphics, as always, are superb, not to mention the voiceacting (I am just saying this because I could listen to the moogles talk all day!)
Although I don’t know what FF’s obsession with timeframes and time limits lately. I know they have always had some role in FF puzzels, but lately, I feel like they do too much with them (think Lightning Returns). If I have to deal with timelimits the entire game, I refuse to play it.
Currently, I am not sure I am emotionally stable enough to pay Type-0. It’s just so intense and I am not even an hour in! I am definitely invested, but currently I need something more playful and lighthearted.
Look forward to future updates!
Have you played Type-0 yet? How did it compare to your previous expereinces with Final Fantasy
