I forced myself through the corridor-fest and found a passable game beneath the layers of turds when the game opens up and you get to
The plot was pretty hokey and really should have ended with the first game. There was more than enough closure there.
I did enjoy the combat system - again, when it started becoming less handholdy and linear, which was way too late in the game. FF13-2 did a better job with this and was pretty enjoyable, but still suffered from a bad overall plot.
I couldn't play Lightning Returns for longer than a few hours. At least on PS3, it ran poorly, was a massive visual downgrade from both 13 and 13-2, and had an utterly ridiculous premise that makes the original 13's plot look like classic literature.
Thankfully, the updated demo of FFXV is extremely promising and, in my opinion, stands to redeem single player Final Fantasy after the crapfest that was the 13 trilogy.
