Final Fantasy XVI Is Like A "Playable Hollywood Blockbuster Movie," Says Producer

Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida has revealed that the game's PC port will begin development shortly after it releases on PS5.

oh come on dont kill the hype for FF XVI , 90% or more of todays Hollywood movies freaking sucks imo.

BlackDoomAx328d ago

At least they are not lying :)

GoodGuy09330d ago

Ugh. I don't like how some jp devs think so highly about hollywood movies. Most of it has been crap for over a decade now imo.

Ashunderfire86328d ago

You guys are looking at this the wrong way, and that’s what expecting everything to be woke does to the mind 🧠 They are talking about fast action scenes 🎬 you get from Hollywood movies with those summon battles. Final Fantasy 16 could easily be Game of the year over Zelda if everything is solid!

Flakegriffin328d ago

I mean movies HAVE been low grade lately. I’m not sure what “being woke” has to do with this persons comment. That’s a strange take.

SinisterMister329d ago

This game is getting hyped to kingdom come. Hope it turns out that way.

drizzom329d ago

Should have added *from the 90s. The Hollywood movies nowadays kinda suck.

Ashunderfire86328d ago

Early 2000s had a lot of great movies 🍿 and Minority Report, and The cop crime comedy The Departed, were among my top favorites of all time! Yes The Matrix is also on that list as well.

Transformers Rise of the Beasts is coming out soon.
Cheaper to watch than this game.
Maybe we should save money by watching that film.

P_Bomb328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

I’m not paying someone to butcher Beast Wars. Or for some teenager to beat Unicron.

EternalTitan328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

Then dont pay a MMO developer wannabe film studio reject to butcher Final Fantasy.

P_Bomb328d ago (Edited 328d ago )

Of course not, stranger from the corn fields! I always trust anons with an axe to grind over my own sound judgment! 🤪

EternalTitan327d ago

I dont have an axe. I dont need violent weapons to improve the world.

VincentVanBro328d ago

Or just do both and have the most fun

EternalTitan328d ago

The divide between the rich and poor are too much for the common working people to enjoy both.

Boy you are in for the most woke Transformers ever made! There is an non binary robot 🤖 that says he is non binary Nuff said! Nope I will go for Final Fantasy 16 instead!

BlaqMagiq1328d ago

Transformers Rise of the Beats looks like dogshit.

FFXVI is a masterpiece in the making. Day 1.

EternalTitan327d ago

Are there any cool transforming robots in XVI?
No.

raWfodog328d ago

As expensive as video games are, they’re still cheaper if you factor in the ‘entertainment per hour’ cost. And another plus is it’s all interactive instead of just passive.

I don't know about ''great'' rpg.

Most epic fight sequences and presentation? Yes

Worst side quests ever? Yes
Boring traversal? Yes
Empty worlds? Yes
Demo is infinitely more mature than the actual game? Yes
FF16=MMO side quests + Devil May Cry Lite

Alos881d 15h ago

I'd give it the great part, it's the RPG part I find dubious.

EternalTitan1d 17h ago

There is no Roleplaying/decision making in this game.
No crafting there isnt even character builds because just like Dante/Bayonetta Clive has all skills and loadouts available to him.

CrimsonWing6919h ago(Edited 19h ago)

What do you mean there’s no role playing? Also, I’m fairly certain I made builds with Eikon abilities and I’ve gone to the blacksmiths to literally select craft weapons and gear. 🤷‍♂️

CrimsonWing691d 16h ago

Let’s be honest, this isn’t a “great” RPG. I am in the camp that it IS an RPG, no DMC game I’ve played is designed like this… but in terms of being a great RPG… well, I much prefer the RE-Trilogy over this.

That being said, I do think the DLCs have probably the best boss battles I’ve played in a game. Omega was crazy and the battle theme just amplified that for me. In the other hand, I’m struggling to think of a game that has a boss battle as great as Leviathan. Like, I played it on FF mode and it was sooooo intense and just a gorgeous and fun experience. The music was also top notch!

However, I really disliked most of everything of FF16. The Benedikta arc was fantastic, but after that the game was boring and a slog to get through. I think the boss battles were the best parts, but also inconsistent for me. Bahamut was peak for the base game, but everything else didn’t surpass that experience until you play the DLC bosses.

VersusDMC1d 16h ago

The 2 DLC's were great. 2 new eikon ability sets (leviathan and...) and a survival/bloody palace mode with Rising Tide were great as well.

repsahj1d 14h ago

The Base game is already great for me IMHO and the 2 DLC will even make it better.
