The best part about this game is exploring and exploiting the Job System... I think the next Final Fantasy should be an open world game where you make your own character but go on adventures with the other characters of the game, even with the bad guys. What you do in the open world and who you do it with will shape the open world, even ruin it. Pretty cool idea, huh?

Dec. 2024

The fifth entry in the Final Fantasy franchise, this game feels like the point where the franchise really started to get more complex, and it shows given how much it took me to beat it compared to the previous games. Being part of the Pixel Remasters, there's not a lot of difference in the graphical aspect to that of the previous games, although it does look very good, and the sprite work is really nice. Gameplay wise, its fundamentals are what you could expect from a classic Final Fantasy game. You control a party of four characters, there's an overworld to explore, random encounters, dungeons to complete. It also incorporates mechanics introduced in previous entries; the job system from Final Fantasy III makes a much more improved return, as well as the ATB system present in IV. I'd like to talk about the job system in particular, as I found it to be an excellent addition to this entry. As you progress through the game, you'll unlock new jobs, each with their own abilities and such, and as you gain experience in said jobs, you unlock their abilities for use in combination with other jobs. A pretty cool mechanic to mix and match abilities to your liking. There's also several new jobs introduced in this game, giving even more options. The story, I must say, is very good. I will admit, however, that my experience with the Final Fantasy franchise is stiil a bit limited, having played VII over a decade ago, and only getting into the franchise properly with the Pixel Remasters, I can't accurately compare all entries. However, I will say that of the FF games I've played, this one comes second in terms of my favourite Final Fantasy stories. It's a rather long story, with a nice cast of characters and several fun interactions, as well as dramatic moments. It's all a bit cheesy if we want to get fair, but honestly that's part of the charm. It begins when Bartz, one of our protagonists, encounters a meteorite while exploring, and there he meets up with Lenna, a princess, and Galuf, an amnesiac old man. As the crystals powering the elements are weakening, they set out to find the cause; meeting up with Faris, a pirate captain along the way. From there, their adventures take them on a quest to save not only their world, but much more than that. Sound design is, of course, fantastic, having new musical arrangements for the original soundtrack, and you can toggle between the orchestral arrangement or the classic soundtrack. All in all, it's a pretty solid entry in the franchise, as I wrote above, and I can easily recommend it.

Final Fantasy V is one of my favorites of the franchise, so I was already a bit biased buying this new version. The story and characters are pretty meh , but the job system, battle system and world exploration is very fun. The way that you can unlock abilities and experiment with different battle setup is very addictive for me. This new version comes with quality of life that is quite important to note: [*]You can toggle ON/OFF the Random Battle Encounters [*]You can toggle the music from Rearrangement to Original (the new music is very good) [*]You can adjust the EXP , GIL and AP multiplier, making grinding slower or faster [*]Have the choice of 2 Fonts (Classic Style and what I like to call "Out of place Style") If you liked FF5 back in the day, just buy this version, you won't regret it. :) If you have never played it, well, as long as you like good music and like the old school battle system of this franchise, you should have a good time. However, if you want good story-telling and highly developed characters, this game may disappoint you.

I've been playing all the Final Fantasy games for the first time recently, and I've fallen in love with FFV in particular. While I *liked* the previous four games, FFV did everything right for me. The job system is fantastic, the world is fun to explore, it's just a great game. The story is great, and in my opinion doesn't get enough credit. Yeah, it's goofier than other FF games - but that's part of WHY it was so good! We get to see these knuckleheads pal around and just hang on, and that makes them feel like an actual group of friends - so that when the heavy emotional stuff DOES happen, we're already invested and we care about them. So to me, FFV has the *strongest* Final Fantasy story so far. The characters themselves are great too. My favorite is Galuf, just an all-around awesome dude. If you're on the fence about FFV, I say give it a shot. I had so much fun with this one, and spent over 30 hours on it. I'll definitely be replaying this one in the future (maybe I'll try the "Four Job Fiesta" challenge run next time).

I really don't have anything bad to say about any of the six original FF games, honestly. Merely having them updated to be played in 4k made the bundle worth it five times over. A no-brainer for a JRPG fan.
