What are you talking about? The remake is much slower. Turn up the text speed and the Famicom version is quite snappy. The devs even sped up animations dramatically compared to 1 and 2, especially multi-target magic. DS version has incredibly slow magic animations.
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.
