I found similar. This is the most disappointing final fantasy game I have ever played, and I have played all the mainline ones outside of the mmos.
The combat was meaningless and the story was a bit much. It went way too hard into action adventure vs the RPG elements for me, and was too big a departure from previous games. At least there’ll be ff7 next year which will return more to its core.
Yeah I can’t wait for that, now that IS a good combat system in my mind, I really thought they’d take it and build on it for 16 but instead it’s quite clear the two teams developed separately and one struck gold while the other hit regular old rock.
I just hope next gen only fixes the million corridor sliding loading screen moments, the pacing of FF7:RE was so slow wandering around, the open world (or semi or whatever it’ll be) from the trailers looks very welcome
