The Video Game Trophy Room: Episode 91: Final Fantasy

NES: Final Fantasy

The game that started it all! Didn't take me much time to beat this, but I did get lost quite a few times. The level griding is really a pain, but in the end it was worth it. I ran with two fighters, a white mage and a black mage. Normally I'd have a red mage but I found the two fighters to be a lot better in the long run.

Though I enjoy going back and playing older games, I found this one to be a bit of a chore. Being the first it has a lot of annoying quirks (aka magic related ones) that really make it annoying at certain parts of the game. The fact that each level of spells can only be cast a certain number of times for each level add to the challenge to be sure, but at low levels it is just frustrating.

Another thing that was really annoying is having to fight enemies when I haven't gotten items that make me immune to their abilities. There were a few times where an enemy would just waste my party with bullshit spells or attacks that would just kill them outright. It's really a lot of luck in boss battles and dungeons.

Either way, not a bad start to an interesting series, but I won't be playing through this one again any time soon.
