I love this game a lot so any excuse to come back to it is fine for me.
A rather short but still very fun side adventure with some challenging fights. Leviathan kicked my ass a bit. The roguelike Kairos Gate is super fun (and also kicked my ass) and bumped this up an extra half star for how good it is.

A sadly unimportant addendum to a story that felt ultimately conclusive in its message. The gameplay is as sharp as ever, the visuals remain top-notch, and it's hard to not get at least somewhat delighted to see that cast return.
I just can't shake the feeling that I'm not supposed to be back in this moment. I felt the same way about Echoes of the Fallen that released a few months ago.
I had my emotional conclusion with these characters. Playing as Clive again, speaking with Joshua, hanging out with Jill... I'm not supposed to be here, right? This feels like a great expansion for players playing through it for the first time, but as someone that got every second out of FFXVI as it was willing to give me, I feel like I'm watching a Weekend at Bernie's style performance of a cast of characters and a world that shouldn't look like this anymore.
Also, the Leviathan boss fight is some bullshit (even if the music kicks ass.)

Final Fantasy 16: The Rising Tide
La trama sin más, el gameplay guay cómo siempre, la OST suerte que no lo escuché en su momento y me gustó bastante. El mapa nuevo me ha gustado también.
(6/10)
Se acabó FFXVI, ha sido un placer Clive.

whatever you do just skip the sidequests or skip through them no amount of paying attention can make watching those point a to b cutscenes worth it for me
Mais uma luta épica pra conta do Final Fantasy 16, esse jogo é incrível.
There really is something to be said of this expansion and I'm not sure I have the words. It has all of the spectacle of the main game, and a story that intertwines effortlessly into the original scenario. Couple that with new equipment and move-sets, you have the making of a really entertaining time.
It is a little weird to think the movement feels clunky now, especially after sinking 100+ hours into Rebirth but the combat feels just as smooth as it was left in Echoes of the Fallen and that more than makes up for it.
It's good. Play it.
