An Overwhelmed Creative

My husband told me people were saying how the Final Fantasy 7 Remake game play was very similar to the Final Fantasy XV gameplay. So, after finishing FF7 Remake, I had to play FFXV. I must say it wasn't what I expected, but I enjoyed it thoroughly. The game starts with the protagonist, Noctis, going on a road trip with his three friends to go get married to Lady Lunafreya in another kingdom.
