- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

Hopefully this will result in some early user reviews.
I'm really hyped up for it thanks to the amazing demo but I'm also skeptical because Final Fantasy really went from one of the best RPGs to utter crap, with XV hitting unexpected lows.
The FFXV demo was also amazing but then they decided to do a lot of changes and I'm worried it will happen again.
User reviews are my only hope to make at least somewhat educated decision here.
To be fair FFXV was in development hell. It went through many many iterations and was almost cancelled because the project never materialized. They tried salvaging it in updates and I think changed the final chapter twice.
I have a lot of hope that FF16 will be better. The demos and previews have been pretty consistently good, it's made by the same people who worked on FF14 and seems like management is way better this time.
