In

terms of production alone, "Final Fantasy 15: Sword of Kings" as a live-action CG animation looks majestic at first glance, but in terms of finished film, I don't even think that such a game drama It can be called a movie, with weak narrative techniques, embarrassing characterization, and a fake plot. If there is no external decoration, this is almost a mediocre work that can stand side by side with "Jazz".


The extremely excellent CG production is amazing in this "Sword of Kings". Whether it is from the natural facial expressions of the characters or the creation of the most realistic and gorgeous scenes, it seems to have achieved the point where it can be faked to the real, and it is majestic and magnificent. The history and reality highlighted by the ancient city and the desolate and cold frontier make the film always have a grand and epic feeling, but what does not match with such a perfect painting style is the film's plot, which is full of nonsense. , the logically chaotic story and a heavy epic are just as incompatible as fire and water in the movie.


Why do I feel that this can't even be regarded as a movie, because "Final Fantasy 15: Sword of Kings" is not actually positioned to create a fascinating story, the fact is that the original intention of this work is just a foreshadowing of a game, although This kind of foreshadowing has been made by the director and the screenwriter in a concise and comprehensive way, at least allowing ordinary audiences to understand what he is talking about, but he wants to build a perfect tragic hero, and also hopes to present a particularly grand world view. But it is impossible to do it, because the film has almost no space to make all kinds of foreshadowing, and it is even more impossible to use the limited time to shape the characters delicately.


If you can understand this, you will actually know that this story has an extremely gorgeous exterior, why is it so ragged inside, the intention of Xiang Zhuang dancing sword in "Sword of the King" is to use this movie to sell his game well, yes A marketing that envisages a win-win situation, how can such an approach create a magnificent chapter comparable to the picture, that is, the limitation of this kind of thinking makes an overhead epic that can incorporate too many elements into the competition between the two countries, and finally What is visible is just an American hero that is all too common in Hollywood. It is full of routine settings and has no sincerity at all.


The advancement of technology may establish a momentary milestone, but it will eventually be buried in the rising tide of technology. A fantasy with a superficial appearance may also explain why this company with such technology is. So far, it is still only a game that shows off visuals.

Kingsglaive: Final Fantasy XV quotes

  • Regis Lucis Caelum: Forgive my delay. A bit of unforeseen trouble.

    Iedolas Aldercapt: Nothing too vexing, I hope.

    Regis Lucis Caelum: A simple theft, nothing more.

    Iedolas Aldercapt: A daring thief, to steal from the king. Perhaps magical walls and castle gates do not keep all things safe.

    Regis Lucis Caelum: Perhaps. But no matter. That which was taken will soon be returned.

    Iedolas Aldercapt: Impressive. You are a paragon of kingly composure. But I must ask, how can you be so sure?

    Regis Lucis Caelum: Because this thing is not a mere trinket. It possesses a will all its own. Enough to break any thief's grasp.

    Iedolas Aldercapt: Hm. That sounds a very fine prize indeed.

  • Clarus Amicitia: It's been a long time since I fought at your side, old friend.

    Regis Lucis Caelum: Yes, but this time it is not your fight. If you wish to leave, go now.

    Clarus Amicitia: And abandon my king? I think not. Besides, our magic is bound to you. If you fall, Lucis falls.

    Regis Lucis Caelum: Then let us once more into the fray, old friend.
