Although the Final Fantasy franchise has struggled to deliver a satisfying single-player installment in recent years, Final Fantasy XVI released to widespread critical acclaim and quickly cemented itself as one of the best games in the series. Despite its positive reception, XVI's real time combat remains a contentious point among players. While many enjoyed its fast-paced gameplay, plenty of longtime Final Fantasy fans criticized it for straying too far from its turn-based origins. On the other hand, fans of hardcore action titles felt that XVI's attempts to appeal to a broad audience negatively impacted its combat. While the mixed feelings surrounding the combat have led many to view Final Fantasy's increasing focus on action as a mistake, one of the franchise's best spinoffs has already proven that this isn't the case.
