Is Final Fantasy XV Underrated?
Final Fantasy XV may not have been the perfect game fans wanted at launch, but it carved out something unique in the franchise. Instead of traditional parties and politics, it focused on friendship and a road trip adventure with Noctis and his crew.
Its real-time combat pushed the series forward, its soundtrack and visuals were breathtaking, and its ending remains one of the most emotional in the franchise.
While it may never escape the shadow of the series’ all-time greats, FFXV deserves more recognition as one of the most experimental — and underrated — entries in Final Fantasy history.
