I enjoyed XV.

As did I.

Especially after update added the endgame dungeon in Insomnia. Omega fight was epic if you didn't break the battle with the Prompto glitch.

The primary antagonist failed to evoke the hatred that we had for Sephiroth but that will probably never be reproduced. So I set the bar at Sin from FFX, feeling both anger and sympathy towards the antagonist.

I'm on my third playthrough right now after taking a year away from the game and loving it. Caught all fish, collected all "recipeh's", earned platinum trophy on first playthrough but still undertaking quests and hunts that I somehow missed the first two times around.

I'm pretty picky about wanting games to really make me feel like I'm a part of the world, and to me FFXV is second only to Witcher 3 in actually making me feel like my decisions, or lack thereof, made a difference.

FFXV isn't for everyone, and I didn't think I'd like it after 4 hours of gameplay, but I kept going and eventually loved it.
