People keep praising the story in 6 like it's its biggest advantage, but I thought that only applied to the overarching story. I DO think the basic story being told is stellar and actually relatively unique. However, most of the smaller story points along the way were so bad, so stupid that not even saying "video game logic" could fix it.

Then there were the points where you could choose your party, which is great, but their solution to this story-wise was to make the scenes super generic and bland since they had no way of knowing what characters would be present. In the second half there were so many potentially touching scenes of meeting up with characters that just had no impact at all because of this.

Yeah, the story in 5 is pretty normal, but at least it didn't make me cringe/face palm/whatever you wanna call it.
