bullet points since i have too much to say:
• open world aspect was done well, fun exploration + pretty environments (it’s insane when you compare it to the og visually)
• characters felt so fleshed out and full of life, their interactions were so cute
• main cast had incredible voice acting as always
• beautiful ost !!!
• sooo much extra content with side quests/protorelic missions/gathering intel
•mini games were fun but if you are a completionist it feels like too many especially cause some of them are SO difficult to master
• different chocobos for each area… need i say more
• as someone who hates card games in my
video games - queen’s blood was so much fun
• aerti costa del sol outfits <3
• also barret in his sailor suit
• gold saucer was just as whimsical as i dreamed
• chapter 13 & 14 were masterpieces
• story changes were very cool and interesting to me… also so much foreshadowing, they are cheeky af
• no playable vincent + cid is kinda evil
• i ended the game with 1800 screenshots

this game was ridiculously annoying to get ahold of and idk why they had to make it so difficult but it was fun and charming as expected - if you love persona and rhythm games, it’s perfect for you!! i think this is the only persona dancing title with an actual canon main story in there so that was… interesting, it was long winded but i thought the VN style was cool at least. also if you get the dlc you can have THE hatsune miku join you, do i need to say much else?!

it did kinda suck that there’s no option for jp audio cause that’s how i played p4 originally so the switch to en voices was a little… jarring.

adachi voice i’m rockin’ it huh?

i expected more than what it gave in terms of story but i appreciated that it was light & silly (until it wasn’t) and that fit with yuffie’s character very well.

her play style is fun, fast and versatile and i thought the synergy mechanic was pretty cool even though i kept forgetting to make use of it. the music was outstanding as you would expect from any ff title :) also i loved the ending scenes - they made it so worth playing!

i became the fort condor champion from fomo but i hate that mini game so much, i was getting war flashbacks to the og LMAOOO, never again!!
