I actually really liked 16’s main storyline. Not sure where I rank it, exactly, but parts of it were extremely cool.
What I did not like were the barrel-bin jrpg-tier sidequests where characters show up out of the blue because they’re supposed to be in this scene and “you really thought I wouldn’t see the two of ya’s slinkin’ off” was all I guess the project had the budget for.
I can’t tell you how many times it felt like a character would tell me to go somewhere to do a thing because they can’t go, and so I’d go do it, only for them to show up anyway so they could thank me with sad music.
It was just exhausting how shallow and uninspired most of the side content was.
