I feel like this game kind of came out of nowhere. We got a few small announcements and then nothing major until close to the release date, unlike the insane marketing blitz that was FF15. Maybe I was just out of the loop.

Anyways I'm curious if anyone has any thoughts or opinions about it? I love Final Fantasy games but this one seems so different. Tbf I haven't played the demo, I'm planning on trying it tonight, but I'm curious what everyone thinks about such a major release.

Demo blew me away. Last time I got chills like that from a game was the intro to Last Of Us back when it launched on PS3. Been craving a narrative driven game but didn't expect this one to be so "mature." Really loved the intro and if it reviews well gonna pick up a copy on launch day.

Also I come from frequenting reddit (sorry for the trope), but I saw tons of coverage for the game the last several months. Yoshi P and crew have been pretty good at showcasing what this game entailed. Partially why it's been on my map as someone who usually isn't interested in FF.
