XIII trilogy was a clusterfuck, but at least it was emotionally stupid, felt sincere and unique. I remember the scene where Serah yelled at some huge monster and defeated it that way because her tantrums reached monster's creator in another timeline in the past and scared him into not making it. It was really dumb, but at least it was fun and original.
XVI, on the other hand, spoke of the most obvious things with such a serious face that listening to the story was like listening to a retarded person perched on a podium, pompously strutting like a wannabe smart about the most obvious truisms in this world. Not only is everything they tell you obvious, but it's also all very verbose, filled with fluff, with a dreary rush through the most pathetic quests in the series, and other dull activities. It's as if the game's creators were tasked with inventing the most dormitive adventure in history.
