This was my favorite blast from the past, but after playing the other three remakes, the first Final Fantasy at this point feels like the freshest one with the changes. Always loved this Final Fantasy the most in terms of story, character, class, magic and leveling. I noticed compared to the Super Nintendo games of old that this game's battle system is alot easier as well and alot smoother. The introduction also of the RTA system makes taking turns very fun and with a better idea of the turn order compared to the older games without it.

That being said, though, this game is the first of the four that shows some actual flaws: The repetitive nature of the games. I personally started noticing that battles, magic, dialogue and menu choices start to show their repetitive side alot more when compared to the oldergames, so hopefully the future games don't fall into this trap as much. When compared to the SNES era of music and sound as well, you'll notice that even with the remastered music that it's not a huge leap compared to the other three.

Still, the game is a joy to see in it's format. While not the best out of the others in terms of updated graphics and music, it still does an outstanding job and newcomers will see how spectacular the game is in it's current age.
