    FF has always been cuturally tropey.

    Fantasy France is about castles and catholocism, fantasy US is about cowboys, fantasy Mongolia is about horseback nomads, fantasy South America is about tacos.

    The only difference this time was how poorly written it was. They introduced it to us slowly, in voiced cutscenes, like a Sesame Street episode exploring Peru, without abstracting it, adding fantasy elements, or giving it any narrative relevance. And you can thank the fanbase for at least some of that--remember how WILD everyone went about Raha eating a taco? That's signalling "Yep, that's enough, please give us more of that!"

    If you get bored with the story, you're supposed to go play some KOF while the cutscene plays out.

    Yeah that is true...but FF always had an engaging story so most fans just brushed it off

    This time its the boring cringefest that is The Wuk Lamat Show so people are starting to notice all sorts of problems it has
