Final Fantasy XVI’s Ultima: The God That Weakens the Story?
In Final Fantasy XVI, the character known as Ultima is portrayed as a divine figure sowing discord from behind the scenes, causing conflict throughout the storyline. For Clive, the main character, his mission of avenging his brother’s demise merges with the destruction of mothercrystals – magical sources that grant power but also inflict pain on the continent. The early gameplay sets up a compelling struggle arising from the characters’ personal revelations and dilemmas. However, as player AlefZero00 contends, the introduction of Ultima transforms the complex, tangled human narrative into a clear-cut battle against an antagonistic force.
