The Weekly Stuff #169 - Final Fantasy XV Final Review & Analysis

This week, we talk about a few random topics – Jonathan complains about the packaging for Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and extols the wonders of Terrence Malick’s Voyage of Time – and cover some recent pieces of film and gaming news – including the trailer for Spider-Man Homecoming and recent reports about the Nintendo Switch – before diving into our final, full review and analysis of Final Fantasy XV. We talked in spoiler-free terms last week, largely about the open-world portion of the game, but now it’s time to go in depth with the story, characters, and controversial second half. Jonathan loves it, but Sean has reservations – even though he can’t stop playing it either. Spoilers abound, so if you plan on playing the game and don’t want story revelations revealed, stick to last week’s episode for now.
