Same overall opinion as for AITSF: on the positive side I prefer Somnia over escape rooms, on the negative I find the mood of the game too silly goofy. Man, I miss Zero Escape.

Gotta say, the cast of characters and the Somnia has improved since AITSF.

AITSFNI + ZTD spoilers ahead

Sorry, I don't buy "that", it's the ZTD bs all over again. It's too excluded from the narrative for me and I feel like it doesn't really serves a purpose besides an afternote at the end (which isn't that deep anyway). I wish Uchikoshi stopped trying to implement the unreliable narrator trope this way, it just doesn't work. I know that the mistery would be too straightforward without it, but imo arbitrarily obfuscating the narrative as a "puzzle" loses a ton of value if it doesn't provide anything meaningful besides a twist and putting your brain to work for a while.

Yeah, guys... it's a good game.

Gameplay is Nioh and I fw that (a pretty good Nioh tbh, maybe a bit too easy), but I get why it isn't for everybody. The weapons have a nice variety of moves, the jobs system adds a good layer of customization and the Sekiroish posture bar + different attacks with specific responses compliments everything pretty well.

I was just expecting your average bs writing because of how infamous this game became, but it's just and enjoyable silly game, and that's fine. You get the goofiest and most unhinged scenes (and i mean it in a good way), you can have a laugh at the clichés of the IP, you get a healthy dosis of fanservice/tribute to the whole franchise, you get a compelling ending to nicely wrap the story (even if it isn't anything mind blowing) and most importantly, you get CHAOS. Did people just miss half the game being satirical? Did they expect a life-changing plot? I know FF has some dense fans, but c'mon, it's so explicitly meant not to be taken too seriously.
