FFXVI ending stuff:

Yeah, there's Clive telling Harpocrates that he'd write in the fiture. The clearest proof is with Jill though. In particular that when the dawn breaks you will come back to me part. This is clear if you have played the flower field sidequest with her. The star disappearing would then mean that her wish was finally granted. Her reaction also says it all and is the reason it can't be Joshua. She would not have the same reaction to seeing Joshua coming back. Also I don't see why Clive didn't just lose a hand maybe arm like Cid did. The whole game is also narrated by Clive so it ending with a book from him to what is likely his descendants makes the most sense. But yeah the symbolism stuff is the big proof, there's is no way that would be there if it was not specfically Clive coming back to Jill.

I thought he died too until the postgame credit scene where I didn't even consider he could be dead any longer and have been very surprised at how accepted that is around the internet.

Also I agree with most points about FFXVI in general. The story and cast is the game's strongest point. Combat starts out pretty promising but ends up being a bit dull in the end. I think it's a shame that you can make a good set that works for anything. Nothing good comes from trying out different stuff for different battles, same goes with weapons. I thought the eikon battles were very repetitive, in particular the one against Titan because you have very limited fighting opitions and it lasted for half an hour, there was little to no variation. It's very pretty, but I think half length would make for the better impression. On the other hand, the one against Bahamut was extremely well done.

Yeah, Bahamut was definitely my favorite Eikon battle. I would say that entire section in the Crystalline Dominion might be the high point of the game in general.

Active time lore mentions something about a shrine Ultima placed in the sky above the origin and I'd guess it's that since it fades at the end. As for symbolism though it's what Jill prays to for Clive to return and it disappears as there is no need to pray any longer with him coming back to her now. I've seen people on the internet say it "communating Clive's safe return to the heavens" and while it disappearing also would make sense if he died, that feels forced and doesn't work as well.

Really though, the symbolism part about daybreak meaning Clive's return and Jill's reaction just straight up isn't there if he dies. It would not make any sense. Everything is explainable with Clive surviving, not the other way around.

Yeah I think so too. I did initially think that the conclusion to their mother's storyline was a little bit sudden and fast but good regardless.

Got the last Dragon's Tear in Zelda and the bonus one that appears after you collect them all. So Zelda became a dragon in order to use her powers to restore and enhance the Master Sword over an extensive period of time, far beyond her Hylian lifetime. I'm guessing the Master Sword is on that dragon. Now I just need to find a way to reach her!

I also liked the touch of having that final Dragon's Tear be surrounded by Silent Princess flowers.

Clawed enough time to finish Part 1 of my Gerudo region exploration. Left the parts of the desert with the sandstorm alone but otherwise went everywhere else. That just leaves the Goron Region to go!

135 Shrines, 849 Koroks.

not liking that korok number, not gonna lie. Hard to imagine it stops at 900 so the next even number is 1000 and no way there's even close to that amount in one region. Sure, there's the section of Gerudo Desert I left alone but I wasn't finding many in the part I could so I don't think there's gonna be like 50 over there lol. Unless it ends with some wacky number like 927 or something. Well, we'll see where I end up I guess.

I've seen this said a few times but it doesn't have that though? Unless you only go some years back maybe.

Like: Ocarina of Time is for sure sitting on that until the end of time.

I think you may be looking at opencritic, where it is indeed 1, but that opened mid 10s.

On Metacritic it still falls short of OoT, GTAIV, Tony Hawk, the Galaxy games, maybe some stuff I've forgotten. Still incredibly impressive.
