MODERATORS
FWIW, this is pretty close to how I feel about it. Compared to XV, this game is a masterpiece.
I'd add that the ability recharges make the later combat feel a little bit more ATB-like (to me at least), when you're relying more on those abilities than standard attacks.
Also, I personally think it's the most (or second most) well-told game of the franchise. They do a phenomenal job of setting up different situations with maximum impact. The sad and hopeless feels sad and hopeless, the enraging feels enraging, and the grandiose feels ABSOLUTELY GRANDIOSE.
So there's no MP and all spells have a recharge mechanism instead? That seems like a great way to encourage players to use them more often.
Yep, I'll use big powerful abilities on small mobs just to clear the area since it will eventually recharge. Especially once I have a couple big heavy-hitting abilities in my tool belt.
