| Simply some of the best! | 2010-01-02 | 5 / 5 |
| one of the classics!
don't play this version, play the revamped versions that are not nearly as annoying to level up in.
This version will have you level up for weeks just to advance. This was fine 20 years ago, but not now!
still, a classic! |
| IN MY OPINION BEST FINAL FANTASY EVER | 2009-08-25 | 5 / 5 |
| | Im old school like that. I like old school Rpgs. I dont own new systems. I like NES SNES and sega genisis. I also like n64 that is the newist system i own. I love the old games. Dont play as much as I used to. though.But I love this game. I like the music. It brings me back to a simpler time. |
| | the game that started it all is still one of the best around. even with the fancy graphic of today, you just can't replace good gameplay. |
| Legendary for it's time and still good today | 2008-12-06 | 5 / 5 |
| | A solid game all around, for it's time this game ruled the world so to speak today it's still got respect. For those who haven't play yes this is actually the first Final Fantasy in the seris and it is a Final Fantasy! If you don't want the classic verision try the Gameboy Advance verision it's good! |
| Don't Let the Primitive Technology Fool You... | 2008-06-07 | 5 / 5 |
| Whether you've never played an 8 bit game before or you consider yourself an expert on the subject, it's very easy to underestimate the original Final Fantasy. Sure, the music, graphics, game design and battle interface were all cutting edge at the time, but the first thirty minutes of this game may not win you over right away.
I clearly recall beginning the game and finding it amusing, but somewhat dated and unimpressive. I started out on my mission, fighting enemies, building experience, purchasing better weapons, magic, and equipment, following suggestions from local villagers and, eventually, I got to Garland: the first big boss. After an impressive battle, he was defeated, and I smiled smugly, satisfied that I had overcome a major obstacle and gotten pretty far into this primitive adventure so quickly.
Then I crossed the bridge, and the opening credits rolled.
That experience defined FF1 for me. Every time you think you understand the structure, parameters, and limits of the game, from modes of travel to impassable land masses and dead end oceans, the rules change in the most fun ways possible. Canoes, ships, airships, undersea and above land levels, an ever expanding world map, robots and future technology (from the past), a gypsy market in the desert, a waterfall guarding a hidden entrance, a circle of wise men in a hidden clearing, and additional problems and challenges that pop up after you think you've done EVERYTHING you were supposed to do keep the game fresh and exciting throughout.
Finally, to those that have criticized FF1 for being too difficult, I must disagree. I have very little console RPG experience, yet my party never died, and I never spent time just trying to build experience before moving on to the next challenge. I beat the game while at Level 29 without a problem. Sometimes, it just takes a little strategy -- when to use heal spells versus heal potions, when to cure all hit points or just some, and when to let one character die so that the others may continue to live. I actually respect that the game requires you to plan like that. It makes the final victory more rewarding. My only advice would be to consult an online walk-through tutorial at certain points as there are a few confusing moments where you'll have no idea where to go next without a helpful clue. Also, stock up on those heal potions!
FF1 is an amazingly innovative game. It combines great design with an adventure that slowly and purposely unfolds in the most fun and exciting of ways. When you finally slap in that cartridge and give this old dinosaur a try, don't judge too quickly. You can be sure that it won't be long before the game starts shaking things up! |
