FFVII The First Soldier

The game is a lot of fun but it crashes quite often during gameplay. Fortunately the game does not throw you out of a match when this happens. You can just open the app, press start, and it'll load the match. That being said, the constant crashing is ruining the game for me, which is a shame because it gets many things right. Better than Call of Duty Mobile is many aspects. Playing on iPad Air (2021) with Xbox controller and a party of two, myself included.

Guns jump with careful fire. Only accepts 2 screen inputs at a time meaning you can't aim and shoot without standing Resident Evil style and accepting your fate. Even then... Magic spells are completely useless. Most spells take longer to hit with mediocre damage than if you ran up and beat them completely to death. Jumping is short, has a huge delay, and sometimes doesn't even work. You can run up walls but only in a way that feels conditional. Huge delays in every action.

I love the theme and nostalgia this game brings but I really wish they could work out the controller kinks. PS5 remotes have not been configured correctly regardless of how many different devices I've tried on (4). Between a Galaxy Tablet and an S9 Plus, neither would display the correct button layout. However, FFVII FS is still fun on mobile. I'd recommend for all the FFVII fans.

Middling at best. Better controller support would be nice, the triggers on an Xbox controller aren't detected. This game would be much more enjoyable if it weren't confined to mobile, the touch screen UI is cramped and messy. The game itself is nothing special, it's just another battle royale shooter. I enjoy it simply for the fact that it's a final fantasy title.

I pre registered for this, and initially wasn't impressed. However, I picked it back up and have been playing a little everyday for a month or so. The game is fun! I haven't played many battle royale games, but it's easy to win often on the regular game mode. I play with an Xbox controller. The touch controls completely suck, so if you download, I'd make sure to have a controller. Buttons don't map correctly on a stadia controller, so that one doesn't work.

This game seems like such a fun battle royal, but unfortunately it is mobile only. Playing a game like this on a mobile device feels incredibly clunky, you can only ever do 2 of move, shoot, or aim, due to the limitations of a touchscreen. I hope to see this title on pc because the concept is very nice and cool! It just feels like it wasn't designed with mobile in mind.

Currently my favorite Battle Royale game, and I don't normally like Battle Royales. The dual pricing for the Season passes are kinda weird though. Also I'd prefer to be able to pay the exact amount. Having leftover "tickets" is just dumb. I know why companies do it, and it's scummy. Refine some business practices, improve some animations, and refine the controls a bit and I think you got a gem here. The fact that I can use my Razer Raiju Mobile puts it ahead of every other mobile shooter.

Game is different than your average BR mixed with an empathesis on melee, spells, and summoning and fighting monsters. Though, what's wrong is bugs and glitches ranging from small such as not able to move the camera or randomly ejecting out of a vehicle while driving, to game-breaking like going through the map to crashing at random intervals. These are things that HAVE to been seen and decided to release the game in this state, stay away till the technical issues are fixed. *Using ROG 3 Phone*
