It's the most consistently good part of the game imo. but like a lot of the rest of the game there is a track or two that's just the worst parts of ff14

the side quests in this game are really bad and seem pretty pointless. lots of people seem to go missing 100m away…

I like a lot of the world building and character stuff in the side quests enough to forgive how dry the gameplay of them are

Harrow

Yeah I did all the side quests because just enough of them had actually good story in them that I didn't want to accidentally miss a good one

The late-game side quests are mostly really good. They're still dry from a gameplay perspective but they start to get actual mocapped cutscenes and stuff.

not a fan of the orchestral arrangement for the boss music in 5.

the story and writing in XVI does a bit of a face-plant toward the end.

the political intrigue and world building stuff of the start felt like it was building toward something and they kinda just burned right through it.
