From my understanding people complain about coop because its not ' proscene ' stuff and it caters to casuals . But as a coop player i ' m finding it a ton of fun with regular map releases and really unique commanders Nova has microintensive army with little to no macro level management but punishes losing units like mad due to the 5 min cooldown on each unit . Coop seems to get more balance changes than regular SC 2 multiplayer even . So I can imagine why they ' d be irked . <| sep |> Oh boy , this question again . No , you don ' t need to play the other Final Fantasy ' s to play 15 . That ' s the unique thing about Final Fantasy as a franchise , each numbered title in the series is set in their own universes and canon unrelated to eachother . Each is its own story with its own set of characters etc . One Final Fantasy could be set in a medievil DnD style world while another can be set in a matrix , scifi future world . They are not connected at all in terms of story . The things each game shares are things like naming conventions for spells and items , theming , recurring mythos yet heavily iterated on and recurring monsters redesigned to fit into thier respective worldAs to the title question , whether or not FF 15 is good , yeah it is . From everything ive played and heard it ' s actually pretty damn hype and is as good of a place to start as any .
