Be warned. When SE makes a direct sequel of a FF, the gameplay is completely different.

This 100%, Many say that this does not happen with Rebirth, but they forget that Rebirth is not a sequel or "part 2" it is simply the continuation of the game that SE decided to divide into 3 for some reason.

Try FFVII Remake, Rebirth, and FFXV. You won't be disappointed. If you are really into FF visuals and world building, you can give a try to FFXIII, but keep in mind those are acquired taste a bit.

This right here 👆

I like how OP said he wants a FF16 part 2 or content related to it and then people come in and basically say "but no, muh other FF games because I like them more". How about people just stick to the main topic instead of saying others have bad taste because they love this game in particular (be it for it's combat style or story).
Bottom line, we want more content for FF16, not something resembling it.

"You're not allowed to comment unless you agree 100% with the OP."

Nope, sorry. You're wrong. This is an open discussion forum, not an echo chamber.

As for the justice it deserves? Unlikely to ever occur... considering how screwed over it got. For anyone wondering let's just go with a story originally written to be a trilogy, then cut to 1 game, then pushed out the door with like 1/10th the map initially showcased a year and half prior (after being cut down to 1 game at that)... and the immense number of leaks / out of bound stuff found like super high quality cities that didn't make it into the game,

You know, I like this game but I was wondering why I never got to freely roam any of the big cities. Except for the very brief, very scripted, 'the city is falling apart' sequences that seem to happen every time you get to enter one :/

I wonder if it was for performance reasons. I mean just look at how many people complain about lostwing, a freakin' village. The most city like city you actually can freely roam is probably northreach. And still, its more like a town.

Not agreeing and changing topics are two different things. OP said he enjoyed the game, not that he is searching for similar games. Maybe I am mistaken, but this is the only FF game you transform into a giant monster (Eikon) to battle other giant monsters, which seems to have been one of the points that make the games enjoyable for OP.
Also, I fail to see how you can "disagree" with someone that enjoyed something. You dudes come in like "you can't enjoy this game, because I find this other game better". Imagine people actually liking other stuff. “Comparison is the thief of joy.”

Oh my don't turn this into a free speech issue. Its a staying on topic issue. The thread wasn't "what is your favourite FF game' or 'What FF do you recommend?'

Mind you, without a direct question to answer, I suppose its only a matter of time before the discussion starts meandering.

No idea. I was pretty bummed that FFXV had that incredible city https://www.neogaf.com/threads/ffxvs-cut-content-volume-is-worth-bringing-up-again.1634268/

and yet all we got was some gas station/truck stops, caves, and two cities that were heavily restricted from going anywhere (Altissa is so much more built up but due to cut content most of it is blocked off and the other one you only get to access the front part of the town).

A real bummer. I wish we could have more to explore in 15/16 the game's cities like FF9's Lindblum or many FF8 cities.

Nobody turned it into a "free speech" issue.

I see you are only capable of arguing with strawmen.

Literally zero people have come in and said, "you can't enjoy this game, because I find this other game better." Zero. Not a single one. Nada. Zilch.

You, on the other hand, coming in with "you're not allowed to disagree with me liking this game."

It's easy to disagree with someone who likes something. You just have to not like it. Easy peasy.

Nobody is saying, "you're wrong to want more FFXVI." Lots of people are saying, "I'd rather they focus their time and money and effort elsewhere," and you should be able to handle that opinion if you're a mature adult.

So when are you going to release or magically conjure up Final Fantasy XVI part 2?

No?

Do you at least have a pending release date from Square Enix releasing it?

Okay...

Do you even have a leak stating they're considering "maybe" working onit?

Nothing?

Then what were you expecting from these posts exactly? Yes, OP enjoyed the game and wants more basically, but done fresh with another cast/story. Since that cannot and likely will never be provided the best responses are those advising games that might fit what they mentioned in their post. Besides, they didn't even specify it had to be more FFXVI, exactly, just another universe, story, characters, and more experiences like the Elkon fights and music.

Yes, you are mistaken.

They didn't specify exactly what context of "Elkon battles" they liked just that they liked them. Did they like controlling them in an action game format? Will Final Fantasy X's Aeon's be epic enough in presentation and a non-action based combat system? Do they want to see a story based around something similar like FFX or, frankly, an alternative but similar approach with FF8's Garden forces, Galbia military, and the multiple sorceresses which fit a similar thematic atmosphere despite not being Elkon's, itself?

Further, they didn't only state they wanted more Elkon fights. They mentioned music (which Nobuo is largely considered the greatest in the video game industry, and within this very series is THE most reknown composer) so they might appreciate the music of the other games they've yet to hear. They also mentioned another realm, story, characters. Maybe they just want another fresh interesting adventure, perhaps one with similar themes of some sort or at least just as good (in their opinion)?

However, we wont know for sure what precisely OP wants until they respond. Further, as mentioned prior odds of FFXVI part 2 is non-existent and it is highly likely OP would prefer comparable experiences based on what they said rather than day dreaming about a non-happening. Besides, it is their first Final Fantasy game. Why would you NOT want to recommend others they might like? I'm not sure why you made it into "these are better than FFXVI" because that isn't what I was seeing in this thread. Recommendations were made and reasons for recommendations were given. OP can decide from there.

Further, that was not said... and the irony of you stating "Imagine people actually liking other stuff" but then trying to prevent OP from liking other stuff is quite deep. Why would there need to be a comparison, either? Why can't OP just find multiple games they like? Again, they're new to FF and there are a lot of good ones. FFXVI is quite possibly going to remain their favorite as their first experience with the franchise and one that shone through well, even after they try others but it doesn't mean they can't enjoy checking out the others as well.

Or were you just expecting everyone to drop in and +1 nice post. /end discussion?

Honestly, looking back over the entire thread not a single person said "This FF is better than XVI". None. The ones that did make recommendations definitely did no such thing and merely commented recommendations in a totally neutral manner. Only post I see really being an issue, aside from yours, was ****** post. The other posts weren't off topic or trying to change the topic, contrary to what you're claiming.

No offense, but I just find your post very bizarre in so... so... many ways.

There 100% WILL be more ff 16 content.

If you disagree, you're being naive.

How can you be that sure ?

If I remember correctly Square Enix were disappointed with FF XVI and FF VII Rebirth sales (probably due to PS5 only release) so I doubt they will continue to release content for FF XVI or making a sequel.

[Thor]

I strongly suggest to check FFXV.
I don't think XVI is bad, but XV is very very similar in many aspects, but implemented better in everything,from being open and not streamlined, to character growth, depth , story, environments... really that is a masterpiece that can definitely satisfy your love for XVI.

this is not bad, but it's very simpler and lacking details and action freedom, the story have some issues too imho, a lot of lucky coincidences ... too much plot armor

I believe this is aimed to an audience of "grown adults" with less time on hands than the previous games

Because it's 2024 and there's more money to be made from this.

They WILL release additional content.

It isn't impossible, but while the game didn't do poor it didn't hit the figures they wanted it to. Also the way Yoshi has been handling the game with no optional dungeons and stuff it is unlikely to see the kind of update/event content that FFXV did.

Yoshi P did say the possibility "isn't zero" though... but he also mentioned that "no more expansions have been greenlit" yet and the team is interested in working on a new game.

I think the odds aren't favorable, unfortunately, but we'll see.
