FINAL FANTASY BE:WOTV 12+

I'm blown away by how highly rated it is... because it shouldn’t be... I've played for quite a while now since launch, I have 99 Orlandu, 99 Mediena, 99 Sterne, 89 Ramza to name a few. This game could have been great, but I feel like I'm just playing some sort of game developed by EA. The game is heavily Gatcha and RNG reliant, not to mention some of it’s party walls. There are no freebies here really... From characters that require copies to advance, to making sure you effectively choose who you want to awaken because the Rainbow Fragments are one of the rarest materials that is essential to levelling up your heroes. Weapon crafting is very complicated with some fixes in JP but not brought over on launch. Honestly the game is an intense grind. When Auto battle was introduced I had my phone running almost all day 12-15 hours on average. I was addicted with The FF franchise with FFT being one of my favourite games of all time. I played FF1 on NES and still own the cartridge for it also. Playing this game made me feel initially amazed to see a nice tactics game come out finally and see my old FFT characters truly come to life with their skills and limit breaks. But honestly it’s not an easy game to get competitive in. The drop rates for characters are abysmal with a horrible gem economy and no pity system to even attempt to get your desired heroes even if you drop 47K gems. F2P is impossible in this game truly. You’ll always be behind and you’ll never be able to feel like you can enjoy the competitive side of the game. I’d imagine it’d be no different for whales too if they have bad luck. I played FFRK for a number of years along with FFBE and DFFOO( this I’m still playing some launch) and this game feels completely butchered... I’m honestly heart broken because I want to continue to play the game but honestly it’s just not worth ruining my social life and relationships because I’m trying to keep up and grind on a second phone basically dedicated to this game. I hope this game falls off and square Enix learns from this and doesn’t ruin another great game that honestly created a lot of amazing memories for me. It’s awful feel like I was prey to the nostalgia factor here. And on top of that basically see that the negative feedback prior to global launch was all true.

This game is a clone of “The Alchemist Code” and the monetization is the same or even worse! The rate to get a ULTRA RARE (arguably always the best characters) is 2% PER PULL. To make these units even META, you need multiple copies of them! ALSO keep in mind you can get “Cards” in your normal pulls so your chance of getting the UR you WANT us even slimmer! Don’t play this game with their terrible monetization! they will powercreep until your starter units are useless and they have split pulls for “paid” and “free” gems and they’ll make exclusive content to incentivize paying.

A bunch of the banners you can ONLY USE PAID CRYSTALS! It's only day one, but Square should be ashamed of themselves for this.

Play Dissidia Final Fantasy : Opera Omnia instead. It is very generous with crystals, the devs care and the community is helpful. Save your time and money.
