Final Fantasy 16 has been all Final Fantasy fans could have hoped for and more. However, your new pet companion, Torgal, has been a fan hit with many looking into how to get the Final Fantasy 16 Torgal plush. Fans have also been taking to social media to share their love for what seems to be the game’s best character.

It’s not an outlandish statement to say that people love cute, adorable puppies in video games. Torgal doesn’t seem to be any different as fans of Final Fantasy 16 have been taking to the game’s Reddit to share their love for the fluffy companion. User hey07rsu says, “I’ve only had Torgal for a day and a half but if anything happened to him I would kill everyone in this room and then myself.” Another player chimed in saying, “I got the trophy for petting him almost immediately.”

One fan even took to making their own Torgal fan club Reddit page and while it only has single-digit members I can imagine more people would be interested in sharing pictures of their favourite boy.

However, the Torgal love has changed some players as they’re now openly, in a jokey way, of course, chastising people who have not yet petted the beloved character. User Bitter_Oil_8085 posted, “I’m extremely disappointed in this community.” They pointed out that while players have completed a wide range of other tasks only 10% of players have petted Torgal over five times. Scandalous stuff for sure.

This has led to other users questioning whether these players should even be allowed to play the game. One player who hadn’t yet gotten the achievement did apologize for their actions saying, “Sorry only petted twice. I will correct my actions as soon as possible.”
