Besides Forspoken being a giant black ho(le), FF16 turned out to be a bland and forgettable game, seemingly made to try to appeal to Witcher and Game of Thrones fans well after the hype for those IPs has died down, and BG3 comes along and eats everyone's lunch.

As much as I enjoyed FF7 remake, I still haven't bought Rebirth. Why? Way too many games to play, and the game is very obviously the same gameplay as the first, so I'm in no huge rush. Episodic gaming has been tried and always fails, because the sequel episodes pretty much by definition will only sell to a subset of the prior game's fans.
