@Jayce_Alexander 3 жыл бұрын

Not entirely, but it's similar. But the influence is even clear in the bestiary and even the art. FF1 used so many D&D monsters. Not just monsters from mythology, but also monsters specifically created for D&D. It even ripped some of the monster art straight from D&D books.

Still blows my mind that my dad, not the brightest crayon in the box, beat this game with a party not meant for beginners. He had 2 Fighters, a Red Mage and a White Mage. Still, he slogged through the game and made Chaos look like a clown, rarely getting a Game Over. Of course, we're also talking about a guy who beat Dragon Warrior 1 and 2 on the same system and Final Fantasy 4 (then released as 2) on the SNES. Amazing either way.

I was the one who gave him the game indirectly during his time at Too Many Games 2019. I gave it to Ryan from Brainscratch Commentaries and said to him that that game was for Johnny. It was also the same game that I gave to Caddicarus during his time at Too Many Games 2018.

This ought to be fun. Personally, I began loving Final Fantasy again after playing XIV: A Realm Reborn. The game has some connections, be thematically or small details with the Tactics Advance, which I bloody loved as a kid. Since then, I'm nearly finishing the base game post-content and getting closer to jump into Heavensward. The game writing, character devepolement, music and even playerbase is so damn good. Nothin' beats the feeling of sitting in a campfire with a random player, emoting "sit" and havin' a small conversation about our characters. THIS little detail I love to death, and the game is filled with it. This made me seriously consider giving a go to the main line Final Fantasy games, but I'm so glad you did this. I don't think i could compromise to play such a vast number of games, and your perspective and opinion sure is good. So thanks, Johnny. For the gift of Final Fantasy reviews. Also Paladin looks bloody pleasing in ARR.

For some reason i managed to watch all of your Final Fantasy reviews in reverse and ending with this one. It's the first time i watched your channel and it's been a blessing for me. You're funny, great at explaning the gameplay mechanics and to re-tell the story. Just what i needed when I've been feeling a bit down lately so thank you.

Spell Charges work a fuck ton better in DnD where everything is a little bit more tailored to party strengths and weaknesses, and there isn't necessarily a combat encounter around every corner. In Final Fantasy 1 at the very least where you are fighting every 5 steps, it isn't a good use of a spell charge system.
