I've played it twice now (well, the beginning part that carries over into the full game; I haven't touched the bonus battle stuff and probably wont; I want to wait until the full release to see that stuff) and I might be a little bit in love. Which, to be fair, isn't terribly surprising given the team behind it and their work on FFXIV, and various Ivalice and Ivalice-adjacent games before that. (Hi, Vagrant Story!)

Prior to this I had only seen the reveal trailer, some trailer from a few months ago and the one released a couple days ago, and I haven't absorbed much else about the game aside from seeing pictures of the various Dominants, hearing about Cid's hideout(?) and some lorekeeper npcs, and while that was enough to know the general trajectory of the plot covered by the demo, it still gave me a lot of Feelings.

So here's a whole bunch of notes, random observations and squee because hey, why not!

( There's only one Eikon of Fire! ... Right?! )

And there you have it. Is it (next) Thursday yet? I want to play moooooore.
