FF3 is good. I can imagine how amazing this would’ve felt playing it on a Famicon back in the day. Great moments and better gameplay and flow than 1 and 2. 7 out of 10.
This is the last FF that has generic protagonists - There a princess who really wants u badly - Cid! Has a wife - Same story as FF1 & 2 - The combat system is straightforward. Jobs overcomplicate it a bit - Exploration is really good; there's stuff to find - Side Content that's fun! - Pacing is good at the start, bad at the end
English Version (french below) : Very close to the first game, with nameless main characters, a relatively light story (even if still more present than in FF1), with a much brighter / more comic tone, more childish characters and a rather short character with a music as good as expected. The main thing of this game is the introduction of the job system : basically, every character can learn several "roles", with a level attached to each of them. All jobs are rather diversed, even if some are clearly better than others (but the platinum does make you engage with each of them). It's very nice but I just feel like it kind of removes a lot of character identity. Maybe that's just me. I like it as a whole, I just feel like it removes something FF1 had that was kind of cool It's not a game that really left a huge impression on me or anything but it's still a nice experience. Definitely worth checking out ! Version Française : Très proche du premier opus, avec des personnages principaux sans noms, une histoire relativement légère (même si plus présente que dans FF1), avec un ton bien plus léger / comique, des personnage plus enfantins et un jeu relativement court avec une musique toujours au rendez-vous. Le principal ajout du jeu est l'introduction des jobs : le fait que chaque personnage puisse apprendre plusieurs "rôles", avec un niveau pour chacun d'entre eux. les jobs sont tous assez divers, même si certains sont clairement bien meilleurs que d'autres (mais le platinum pousse au moins à tous les essayer). C'est sympa mais ca retire un peu l'identité des personnage je trouve. Peut être que c'est juste moi après. J'aime bien le principe mais je trouve que ca retire quelque chose que FF1 avait de particulier. C'est pas un jeu qui m'a beaucoup marqué mais c'est une expérience sympa pour le temps qu'elle dure. Ca vaut le coup d'y jeter un oeil !
