Well, it can't be worse than FFXV: A New Empire!

In all seriousness, this is a very strange choice. There's actually a lot of potentials, but I don't see this living up to it. The combat looks mind-numbingly simple and the lack of warp strikes in the trailer is worrying (as that's the one element that could make the tap gameplay at least a little fun). Gotta admit I love Gladio's new design though.

It could be SE's worst and it'd still top a certain other FFXV app...

EDIT: Seeing some other gameplay videos of it, I'm actually kinda hopeful for this one. Might be an easier way to experience the FFXV storyline... Wonder if that'll be changed any?

I liked regular FFXV. You don't need to bolt the cast onto Game of War or Candy Crush.

Edit - You know what this is? Thankfully it's not GOW with a new skin, but it feels like Nintendo Wii Ghostbusters. The big boy systems got essentially Ghostbusters III with Bill Murray, while the Wii got a game with a cartoony art style but the same story. Seems to be the case here.
