Zack is an extremely lovable protagonist and getting to see how the other FF7 characters came to be was a delight. The new cast was also a good time. The combat in this game was addicting. I weirdly loved grinding the missions while having youtube/a podcast play in the background. my main gripes with the game are the writing and voice acting being very hit or miss, and that Genesis as a villain was a complete cringe fest. Towards the end of the game I couldn't really stand him. Overall, I was going to give this a 3.5, but that ending bumped it up a half point. It's THAT good.
