You're right, my reply was rude and unhelpful. I don't really understand the confusion because I wasn't confused and I didn't pay attention to the remakes until I decided to try Remake specifically after being immensely disappointed by XVI. Apparently this confusion is wider spread than I thought and at any rate I could've been nicer about it.
Totally understand, and that makes sense, and i can appreciate the clarification and sentiment. I'm just starting XVI and the story is interesting, though the combat is not what i typically look for in a final fantasy game. I guess we'll see how it progresses..
I preordered XVI after playing the demo, but the story started to drag IMO and the combat never really evolves much. I quit soon after a fight where I beat down a gang of raggedy refugees with all my Eikon abilities, then after I won they all got back up as if they just got hit with a Nerf bat.
Oof I'll be on the lookout for that, thanks for the explanation without too much spoiler. I really haven't been fond of combat for the last several final fantasy iterations, but i have some hope that XVI at least delivers on story.
