I don't know if this is a situation of great game bad time or if it's a game that's generally not for me even tho I don't really like open world games in general.

The highs are really high but the lows impact my enjoyment ALOT.

Easiest thing to say is that the graphics on this game are incredible, I genuinely stop playing at times just to take in the environment amazing work by the devs.

Gameplay is pretty much like rebirth but more fluid and mostly improved as I miss the original weapon skill tree system.

Music is pretty banger what else do you expect from these guys.

Now the open world.. yeah I hate it it's just the outdated Ubisoft system with 9999 icons disrupting your UI even if you don't plan to go near them. It's not fun it sucks and is full of bloated content that ends up being more tedious then it does fun which chadley and the girl version of him constantly popping up.

Story feels like it's going nowhere and if the idea is to take in the journey and the adventure well that aspect of it blows too. I'm over 50 hours in now and I just don't care and feel no urgency to continue. The journey doesn't even feel great as the characters don't seem as good as they was in the last game, plus you have aerith constantly going AAAA GIRL YOU LIKE?? AHH LIKE A GIRLFRIEND like no go away it is very annoying.

As a game it is very well produced with content everywhere, a great battle system and banger ost to go with it but the story and open world aspects just really hurt my ratings for this game.

I will finish this game but it's gonna require me to really do a PUSH on it.
