      I have not played I, II and III, but all main line single player Final Fantasy games after. It's fascinating to see where lots of the later shenagigans originated from. And even though the story seems neglectable at first glance, from your presentation alone it feels like a classic epos of good versus evil, with a few smaller twists to keep it interesting. I propably doesn't get much more classic than this one.
      Also, your presentation was, as usual, not only rock solid, but most pleasent as well. Nothing like hearing someone talking over a beloved something.
      Thanks for your work. :)

      It ranks pretty low story wise but i did just finish it and the fighting system was not bad at all.
      Regarding the story, look at how it started in the world. 19:07
      "Here my 3 students, for my final departure i will give the 3 of you a gift.
      For you, you get the gift of almost endless magic, making you as powerfull as a minor god. For you i give you the power of the dream world, a whole new dimension no other person has set a foot in. And for you my last student, here you have mortality..... fxxk you, you will die in 50 years"
      How can that not go bad?

    Final dungeon wasn't that bad if you know WHERE to save. So a quick run through the Ancient Maze (get all items, gain a few levels), SAVE. Do the Eureka section, clear everything, teleport out, SAVE. Run through the Crystal Tower to 8th floor, get everything, level up a few times. Teleport out, SAVE. Now blast through the Crystal Tower (takes 5 minutes) and then all you'll have left is Xande and the World of Darkness with the 4 bosses. If you get to the final boss and die, as annoying as it is, you're only out about 20 minutes. Just thought I'd share that as it's always worked for me!

    Im playing this now on the pixel remaster and its been a treat! First time for me to experience this in more or less its true form. You know what... it gives me some Dragon Quest vibes a little bit. Something about how you just sort of aimlessly wander around doing good deeds and helping towns. Lots of creative things going on here! My favorite part is when you shrink yourself down with mini to visit the gnome village! I also love the tune that plays in Doga and Une's shrines.

    Final Fantasy 3 is really great.
    Mainly due to the technical limitations back then, I can't compare it to later and more recent FF games.
    But, I will say, with what they had to work with back then, they had a really ambitious vision and pulled off something very impressive.
    People still appreciate and talk about today (2024).
    This has been a personal opinion.

    Ugh, that last dungeon. Takes a good hour or so, with no save points. You level up a few levels getting to the Cloud of Darkness, which is one of the harder final bosses in the FF series, and if you die you have to start back at your last save with nothing to show for it. That's what I remember from this game.

    • @Xygor

      and it doesn't help for the DS/PSP remake that you still can't save IN IT you can QUICK SAVE on the Pixel version but if that Quick Save IS in the final dungeon and you're still not strong enough to KILL the last boss the only way OUT of that dungeon is to DIE and LOSE OVER 2+ hours for your MAIN save file.

    I actually really like Final Fantasy III and think the Pixel Remaster is the best way to play it, followed by the PSP version (I like both versions). Never tried the DS. Pixel version will only take about 13 hours, PSP definitely requires some more grinding and takes longer but is still a fantastic game. Final Fantasy 1-10 are amazing and I adore them all! 3 is a solid game and I highly recommend it!
