I believe it’s just the first chapter of the game. Your progress will carry over when the final game launches, so I don’t think you have to worry about spoilers, if that’s your concern.
YES!! i fucking loved it! it was so so good. it will be the hardest task in my life to wait for a discount before buying the full game.
i played ff7r a while back, and i just can't get into the hybrid combat system. it feels so awkward to me to actively focus on movement AND an on-screen menu at the same time. which is why i'm so incredibly excited about the new pure action combat system they're trying with XVI. it's so sick! and the story (at least what i saw in the demo) is completely infatuating. i'm so excited.
i also LOVE the "real time lore" (or was it called something else?) feature when pausing a cutscene. don't remember who a namedropped character is? just pull up the lore menu and refresh your memory. SO convenient and well-written. i loved the feature (and writing) so much that i just started pausing at random points to see if anything new had popped up on the lore screen for me to read
Yeah the Active Time Lore, i think is what it's called, is a great feature and I hope other games start doing this. It's hard for me to keep every character and location fresh in my memory for whenever something might be referenced so being able to pull that up and quickly get info is amazing. I'm pretty excited for this!
Not yet, that's likely on my menu for this Friday night (my weekly marathon game night) along with the Lies of P demo. I liked FFXV just fine, but ultimately burned out and never finished it because the world was just too big and the tone was a bit weird to me. Everything I've seen of XVI seems more in like with my tastes, so I am fairly optimistic that I'm going to like it.
I really liked the fantasy-modern direction of XV, but the pacing was certainly off. They tried to make it a piecemeal kind of experience and it just ended up feeling unfinished and weird. I still enjoy it, but yeah it’s weird.
