Final Fantasy III Pixel Remastered is a fantastic revival of a beloved classic. The game's pixel art has been beautifully updated, retaining the nostalgic charm while enhancing the visual experience. The job system is a standout feature, allowing players to experiment with different character classes and build a unique party composition. This adds a layer of depth and strategy to the gameplay, making each playthrough exciting and engaging. The soundtrack is another highlight, with the original compositions beautifully rearranged to sound fresh and vibrant. The addition of quality-of-life improvements, such as autosave and a minimap, makes the game more accessible without losing its classic appeal. Overall, Final Fantasy III Pixel Remastered is a must-play for both long-time fans and newcomers to the series.

In my previous reviews of Final Fantasy I and II, I gave two recommendations. If you're a big Final Fantasy fan or an RPG fan with plenty of free time, I said go ahead and try them. But if youā€™re short on time, I suggested skipping them since there are way better games out there. Now, onto Final Fantasy III. Once again, if youā€™re into Final Fantasy or jRPGs and have lots of time to spare, this oneā€™s definitely worth playing. But what if you donā€™t have much time? Well, with all the improvements this game made over the first two, Iā€™d cautiously recommend it. That said, if youā€™re only interested in playing the best of the best, there are still better jRPGs to choose from. Hereā€™s my experience: I think the story is much better than in the previous games, but it still feels a bit generic. Unfortunately, character personalities are still disappointing, arguably even worse than in Final Fantasy II because the characters donā€™t even have names anymore! On the bright side, the terrible skill-based leveling system from Final Fantasy II is gone, replaced by the classic experience-based system. Additionally, the gameplay is much more engaging thanks to the introduction of the iconic job and summoning systems. I had a good time playing Final Fantasy III, though Iā€™ll admit thereā€™s some nostalgia at play here. Still, itā€™s a solid game thatā€™s aged better than the first two. Itā€™s not great or anything, but itā€™s a nice, enjoyable game in my opinion.

I didn't really like the first half of the game because of how you are forced to flee or use toad/mini on yourself, but the story and music were great, I found myself In a huge grind in early game and think I spent more time grinding on this game then actually playing it. I enjoyed FF1 and FF2 better then 3. Also this is only my 3rd final fantasy game, I am playing them in order wish me luck FF4 is next!

It may be a bit on the dated side, being an update of what was originally a NES game, but it smooths down a lot of the flaws of the NES original and is probably my favourite version of FF3 to date. :3

After playing Final Fantasy XIV for a quite a while now, I figured that it would be a good idea to see where everything started, and thanks to these lovely Pixel Remasters of the first few Final Fantasy games, it is easier than ever to do. Overview As all the other classic Final Fantasy games, FF III is a turned based jrpg with a huge open world and not too much guidance. Since itā€™s a rpg from the ā€œold daysā€ it expects you to talk to NPCā€™s to find out where to go and to explore its world. Which has its charm but can certainly be challenging if you havenā€™t played a game like this before. (But in case you get lost, there are guides, so donā€™t let this discourage you from enjoying this great game.) Story Chosen and blessed by the Crystal, you and your group of three friends were chosen to be the Warriors of Light, and send on a journey to prevent the world from falling into darkness. It's a classic of good vs evil story and the balance of light and dark. It wonā€™t win any story of the year awards nowadays, but it is still a very good fantasy tale which will keep you hooked through the entire game from start to finish. Gameplay After a brief intro and learning the very basics of the combat system, the world is yours to explore within certain limitations. Monsters donā€™t scale with your level (thankfully) so I can happen that you run into monsters which you arenā€™t ready for yet. Like in most classic Role-Playing-Games you level up through combat, find new gear, new key items through quests, and unlock new skills and jobs along the way. One of the benefits of this system is, that if you hit a little wall, you can always just go and grind monsters for an extra level or two and overcome the wall. You never really get stuck. I still recommend saving often and to do so on more than one save file, just to be sure. Features -A huge open world -Lots and lots of enemy variety -A huge selections of Jobs / the ability to switch jobs at any time -Tons of different spells, gear and weapons -Lots of dungeons with different themes and creative challenges, like needing to shrink yourself to reach certain places. -Modern, optional, comfort features, like quick saving at any point, and a menu to increase exp and gil multipliers from 0.5x to 4x and the option to disable random encounters Graphic/Audio/Tech For the Tech, I had zero issues, no stutters no crashes, the game is perfectly optimized for modern PCā€™s On the graphic side, if you enjoy pixel art, this game looks fantastic. The world is full of wonders, and the sprite art is great. Enemies, Combat backdrops, and dungeons in general offer so much variety in their optic. The spells especially look fantastic when used, and you wonā€™t grow bored of looking at them. The soundtrack of Final Fantasy III is still a feast for your ears, itā€™s really amazing how much they managed to do with the tools they had back in the day. Final Thoughts If you like older jrpgs or are a fan of the Final Fantasy franchise and havenā€™t played this game yet, I can only recommend it. The world is huge and offers a lot of variety, the combat system is a lot of fun and its all packed into a good story that keeps you hooked from start to finish. It maybe takes a while to get the hang on it, but it is absolutely worth doing so. And if you are a Final Fantasy XIV player like me, you will discover so many places which also exist in FFXIV, it will put some smiles on your face and provide a lot of ā€œahhhhā€ moments.
