Short review but honestly the game is pretty solid. -Pros -Class system is fun to experiment with and make builds - Music is AWESOME -Back to a traditional level system after playing FFII (UGH lol) -Random encounter rate is not as brutal as FFI and FFII. Even still you can turn off Random encounters whenever you want but that was a nice change. -Fun and interesting methods you have to do in order to progress through the game like casting mini on yourself to fit in a small hole. -CONS -There may be times you HAVE to change classes in order to fight a boss or clear an area. Im personally not a fan of always changes classes but the pixel remaster does not penalize you for doing so which is good. May take you out your comfort zone. -The start of the final dungeon is a point of no return and i didnt KNOW THAT at the time. So be carfare and prepare for this. -Very simplistic and classic story which does not bother me but dont expect much here. Overall very solid old school final fantasy game. I dont have much to complain about honestly.
By Far, the Worst FF game I have ever played. I'm playing the ff games in order and I couldn't finish 3 because they TAKE AWAY your Magic if you dare to try a different job. My Red Mage wants to advance and become a Scholar? Well Guess you also wanted to also give up ALL your spells so you can be left with libra (something my red mage was doing before the job "advancement') I can NOT recommend this game to anyone who likes magic. 1/10 i'd rather play ff1 again.
playing in order, this one is definitely my favorite so far. literally finished it in one day.
