Recently played a big chunk of shadows. I enjoyed it but the modern day stuff is still stupid and there was a severe lack of variety in activities. Bring back hunting and gathering in the wilderness

99% of the wilderness in shadows is completely empty, and just something you sprint through to get to the next thing. That double sucks because the woods and stuff themselves are super well made

This is what I remember about the game

No status effects besides a couple buffs. No elemental weaknesses. Only one weapon type. Giant empty world. No agency or even stats for party members. No traditional spells in the FF spirit. Items very loosely based on FF. Awful side content

The main quest was sometimes interesting and cool stuff did happen, but this very much was not a final fantasy game. It shares the name, a few summons, a few themes, but that's it. The 7 remakes have been far more like FF despite being action than this was
