Final Fantasy 15 review: 'Humanity and warmth shine through even when the story leaves you cold'

But even when the story makes no sense, there's no denying what a gamble its final moments are, keeping you on your toes with a constant barrage of surprises. These final chapters are much darker and more bleak than anything that's come before, testing our heroes' friendship to its limits. When the lore is zipping past you faster than you can keep track, it's this struggle that will guide you through to the conclusion, largely earning the emotional payoff of their journey, even as the story itself bewilders.
