The story of Final Warrior Quest is criticized for being a low-effort, cliché narrative typical of RPG Maker games, resembling a poorly written fan fiction rather than a serious attempt at storytelling. While some players express curiosity about the plot, technical issues like crashes hinder their ability to engage with the game. Overall, the narrative is seen as lacking depth and originality.
“Final Warrior Quest is one of hundreds of low-effort retro-pixel JRPG ripoffs spamming the Steam catalog, made with the RPG Maker video game construction kit. In their own words, 'our easy-to-use tools are simple enough for a child.' Like all RPG Maker 'games', this is essentially a bunch of low-quality/canned assets from RPG Maker coupled with a cringeworthy high school anime club fan fiction.”
“Final Warrior Quest has a 'joke' theme as it wasn't written as a serious or genuine attempt to create a game for gamers (although the fact it's an RPG Maker asset/template flip already tells us that).”
“This game looks like it would be a lot of fun and I would like to see what happens in the storyline, but if this could be fixed it would be nice. Until then, I can't get myself to play a game that will keep crashing/booting me out.”

The graphics in this RPG Maker game are criticized for their low quality, particularly in fullscreen mode, and the lack of full HD support or graphics customization options, which many modern PC gamers find unacceptable.
“As with all RPG Maker games, the poor quality engine displays badly in fullscreen and doesn't have full HD support or any graphics tweaking options, making this unacceptable for any dedicated modern PC gamer.”
