FINALFANTASY XV POCKET EDITION Reviews

Disappointed

Going through the App Store I saw this app I have the game on console so I was interested to try it. After downloading and opening the app it would not go past the loading page. On the actual store to download the app there was an option for apps support so I clicked it and followed the instructions and did everything on the list none of which were able to help me try to even start the game at all. Very unfortunate for a game editors choice on the main App Store for current games.

Crashes

Well after I deleted the game due to the infinite loading bug it would seem they finally came out with an update addressing it. I wish I could verify but unfortunately now the game crashes to my home screen within 5 minutes of game play, which it wasn’t doing before this update. It still pops the “restart game” window if you accidentally or intentionally swipe up or down on the bottom and top edges (notifications, control center) or if you have to switch to respond to a text message. This is a game on a smart phone in 2018. Why do I have to restart the game even if it was to adjust a control center setting or check a notification. Even weirder is that it would seem if you just hit ok on the window it goes away and you can keep playing with no problem...so why have that restart message? They don’t ever explain why anywhere. The random audio language switching is still happening. Most of the time characters speak English. But randomly during gameplay they will start speaking German. I’ve found I have to quit out of the game and reopen it to get the issue to go away, until it happens again. Also the audio has this intermittent clipping, static, popping sound when I’m moving my character around on a map. The saving is still confusing, which they could have addressed. Why not just have all saves go to the cloud automatically. I mean you only let it overwrite the most recent one so I only ever have the one save so it wouldn’t be a space issue on your servers. No individual is ever really going to know how frequently they should have to go into your settings and do this random, manual, move your backup to the cloud crap. Typical Square Enix on mobile..the minimum amount of work on their end while they cash in on people’s nostalgia.

A really fun game but....

This game is a lot of fun and i would give it 5 stars if it didn’t have the infinite loading screen issue. I realized I’m not the only one having this problem, so hopefully an update will come soon that fixes this! Edit: So glad that they fixed the loading bug, however there’s now an issue where the game just completely crashes. It would also be nice if the game kept the screen awake. It’s annoying when I’m watching a cutscene and the screen goes dim or shuts off. Yes, I know I can change that on my phone’s settings, but I shouldn’t have to do that each time I play this game.

Money back.

Phenomenal!

I absolutely loved it. It was super fun and gave me a lot of hours of gameplay. The ONLY reason why I gave it 4/5 stars is that it would glitch pretty often and close out (so I would have to start back at the title screen and load again). I am not overly annoyed by it though because I understand that it is amazing as a phone game. Oh, and it would sometimes switch languages too. I set it to English, but other languages would play occasionally. It threw me off, but I found this glitch in particular to be hilarious. Overall it is one of the best games (if not the best) I have ever played on my phone. Highly recommend. I wish I could give it 4.5/5 stars.

The Most beautiful Game ive played in a while

The story is just so boring. Whatever happened to good final fantasy games with a good story? The battle system is too easy and the magic system is terrible. I’d prefer a turn based battle system with a memorable story to be honest. I think they tried too hard to make XV an action game. It’s time to leave Final Fantasy behind sadly since they’re transitioning to more action games.

Deal breaker?..

No virtual controls, which means your finger is ALWAYS in the way of where you are currently going. For me, this is a MAJOR pet peeve. Aside from that, it’s pretty good, but if you have already run through it on ps4, don’t bother, save your money for one of the other classics SE has brought back.

Crashes a lot after Ch 1

Chapter 1 ran smooth on my i8, chapter 2 and on crashes so often, it’s becoming a chore to play, as I know I’ll have to do most sections 2-4 times. Lestallum and the Chocobo Wiz zone were particularly bad. The game’s recreation of the FF main story is well done, though the lack of camera control was as disappointing as the car on was for the Xbox version, and nearly as frustrating sometimes as the constant crashes. Subsequent chapters also do not seem to offer the same level of freedom to explore that Ch 1 did; feeling to me, much more linear. I’d say wait for updates and crash fixes before buying the additional chapters; they do not run as smoothly as Chapter one does.
