I can accept no minimap. I don't even know if a minimap would help the reasons why it's so easy to get lost in these areas. Despite how beautiful and varied they between different zones, they're very, very samey WITHIN the zones, and sometimes it's difficult to even see paths until you're on them.

No NORMAL map for the areas I do consider unnaceptable. Major game flaw. I should be able to pull up a map screen, that's not gonna ruin your "vibe".

And yeah, should be able to add markers and objectives to the world map when you're on it. Really, really frustrating that you can't. The game gives you no tools whatsoever to keep track of anything, which I imagine is going to be fucking hell on earth when I do go in for all these Act 3 sidequests since it was annoying enough beforehand.

Also the Picto screen really is a fucking mess. Favoriting Pictos doesn't actually do anything, and isn't even character specific! No loadouts is insane for how huge this list gets.

If I wanted to be super fucking nitpicky, I have enough issues that this is like a 7.5, 8 at best for me right now.....but again, I just like it so much I can....I don't forgive the problems, I'm just able to ignore them. It's like when you love a movie even though it has a huge plot hole and you guy "eh, whatever, I can ignore it". It's not that you don't admit it's there, you just don't care.

It does however mean that all the "best game of the decade stuff" continues to rub me the wrong way. I can ignore these problems because I love the game so much, but I can't critically ignore them in direct comparison to something. Even withing the recent genre, do I like this game more than FFXVI? Yeah probably, unless the rest of the last act side stuff sucks or something (which I doubt). Do I think it's actually a better game? No way.
