Final Fantasy III

May give this another chance with the Pixel Remaster.

This is the most *Yawn* Wait, what were talking about? Entry in the series.

I think the Pixel Remaster should be a separate entry from this. It's very different, a second remake even.

not a fan of the job system in the game mixed with the obscene amount of leveling required. Really cool to see the evolution in the exploration though from FF1 to FF3

The final part bumped this down from a 3.5 to a 2.5 for me. Besides being very long/boring, it feels like it's impossible to beat without mindless grinding, unless you use Sage and Ninja (and even then you need at least level 50), at which point you just steamroll the dungeon and pray you pass the final boss (which is just a glorified DPS check unless you go with 3 Sages casting Cure4 constantly, which makes it a slog). Horrible design.

Job system is great. If you use it the right way, the game is a breeze to play through! Playing this after FF2 was a pleasure, so many of the issues fixed. Only missing a deeper plot if anything, but we got the 3D remake for that.

this gave us ff5 so its okay
