Final Fantasy XVI was a really great time, its definitely a step in the right direction on where the series should go in the future. The combat and story are the highlights of the game. Although the sidequests can be overwhelming and sometimes monotonous at times, they really flesh out the world and characters, you learn a lot about the world that you wouldn't get just going to the next objective immediately. The music in the game is top notch and always has throwbacks to the old games.

I am happy the PS5 finally got its big third party exclusive and it really gives the system a defining game. The cutscenes and action in the game take full advantage of the system and make it a must buy for the console.
