Background: I've only played the FF13 series, not great I know but they were my introduction to the FF series.

I started playing this one as people recommended it as being one of the best. It was a bit steep at the start with the Sphere Grid and a few questions I had were answered by the good old internet rather than the game but once I got past the initial few zones I was ready and rearing to go.

In a way this is charming and nostalgic to other games that came out at the time. The voice acting I actually quite enjoy, the touched up visuals are good too and TBH this game is very enjoyable.

Characters are good - if not slightly tropey.
The soundtrack is fantastic.
I haven't finished the game but I'm looking forward to it and I don't think anything could happen that would make me not recommend this game.

Go for it, it's a classic worth experiencing.
