    Not true for Final Fantasy. They made a prequel/sidequel of FF1 called Strangers of Paradise, and it was actually really good.

      Stranger of Paradise is good? It is mocked by the FF community and even within it’s own game. That is a FF staple though.

      I would say the job leveling tree was what was intended in Tactics or FFXIV, but the rest is really not that great. The battle system is no different than FF7 Remake. The story is not really engaging. It’s was fun for a few weeks. If it’s at a discount. Sure.

        I had a blast with a couple friends. I’m not saying it’s Shakespeare, but it wasn’t bad like people who only ever saw the trailers think it is.

        Either way, the fact they tried something new means they didn’t forget about FF1, and technically FF2 if you played enough of the DLC 😉
