Now for a completely original take:

As much as I'm loving #FinalFantasyXVI #PS5, I do wish there was more to the RPG elements. FF has been moving towards real-time combat for a while now, but 16 feels like the genre has changed wholesale to Action.

It would be nice to be able to affect character builds, issue party commands, manage magic use, etc.

It's not fair in this instance to dismiss the ire of veteran fans as "stuck in the past". IGN even posited that #GodOfWar is more an RPG.

@sproosemoose what's funny is I loved the FFXVI demo, and God of War Ragnarok completely lost me half way through cause it was TOO heavy in the RPG department.

@FreiGuy86 I loved Ragnarok, but it was the side quests that almost killed it for me.
