This or FFXVI?

I've never played Final Fantasy, so I'd go with Veilguard. :)

Final Fantasy, by far

I enjoyed VG, mostly for the combat, that I "platinum-ed", then picked up ff16 yesterday from the sale.

There are a lot of similarities in the combat style and both games are fully out.
So far, FF16 story is more interesting, just a lot of hand holding and linearity to it. (only 6 hours in)

Combat is about the only good thing in VG I found (100% have all achievements if that matters) FF16 has an actual NG+, waaaay better combat and a far better story, too.

Thanks, guys. I think I'll go FFXVI

This. I didn't even give FF XVI a first look. Square lost it's way with that series, and I don't know if I'll ever be returning.

God I hope they don't do the same thing to dragon quest.

Having played both to completion I'd have to say this.

For me Veilguard combat is more fun, FF16 felt boring, Granblue fantay relink endgame is the best rpg of 2024 ( Metaphor refantazio was fun to play too )

[Mermidion]

i played through FFXVI entirely, and can recommend it , better graphics/design, more cinematic. actual dark Fantasy moments. And the world isnt immersion breaking.
More likeable side characters too.

Good question. I've just finished Veilguard, but I'd played FFXVI demo right before I DAV came out, and I loved it so much that I bought the game and was seriously considering playing it, but decided against it and opted for DAV instead. But, judging from the demo, FFXVI seems like a more serious and better written game.

I couldn’t get into FFXVI when I tried it. I found all the early characters really repetitive and indistinguishable. I’ve heard it gets better, but I wasn’t gonna drop money on it to find out. Gameplay was fine.

DAV has more to explore and good pacing. The companion writing is unpolished, but the actual plot and set pieces have been fun.

We are the same. choosing between this. FF16 and metaphor during this sale weekend. I first leaned toward ff16. But now am leaning towards veilguard since I think there is more replayability with being able to play a difference class, race etc each playthrough. I admit ff16 visuals and characters are very tempting though.

[DaylightDemon]

both games are kinda similiar in terms of general gameplay loop. id say ff 16 is the better spectacle. both stories are not top notch but ff 16s is more unique. i also think ff 16s graphics are aestetically more interesting.

I've been a fan of both franchises. FFXVI feels much more shallow and scripted compared to DA:VG. FFXVI has tons more cutscenes and much less replayability. I got bored of FFXVI around the 20 hour mark. I am 120 hours into DA:VG.
