Granblue Fantasy: Relink PS5 Deluxe

I’m in the crowd that’s been with final fantasy since the beginning and absolutely could not STAND final fantasy 16, This game is a love letter to the older final fantasy titles (it’s created by the director of final fantasy 6 and 10) and the 8 year development cycle was well worth the wait. It’s their first big title so the plot isn’t always cohesively placed and the side missions are done mostly in a countertop and you instantly warp to similar locations, But the story is honestly just the beginning, Once you beat the 15 hours or so of the plot it’s where the meat of the gameplay comes in. You quest and grind to become stronger and take on some seriously crazy missions. You have corny dialogue, beautiful graphics that make the ps5 really work for it, Amazing score, and just all around a blast to play especially if you enjoy co-op and are tired of being a 1 person party walking around (there’s always 4 of you depending on who you choose to go on the missions with you) honestly it’s a hell of a game that I personally hope does well. I purchase this and grand lie fantasy rising (the fighting game) on the ps5 so I’m deeply invested in the lore, I never played the original web browser game but you still can (although it truly shows its age) but if you miss the old days of RPGs and actually doing side missions with a plot that doesn’t take itself overly serious then trust me this game is for you, I hope it sells well so they can become a bigger dev team who can take on a much bigger/expansive sequel plot wise. All in all a strong 9/10 for this one, A definite purchase (The physical special edition is absolutely beautiful)
