| Anfebious said: If it's your first game in the series then it's understandable. The last portion of the game (as you point out) is bullshit and you have to grind a lot to stand a chance. Not to mention that there is no save point in the last area so you have to beat like 8 bosses without losing! Final Fantasy III was one of my last Final Fantasy games so I was burned out with the series anyway. |
Oh yeah I forgot about the save state crap 
I thought it did a decent job for the most part -not needing save crystals and such. But the one place where that would have REALLY benefitted would have been that damn castle. It's just a huge maze with cheap enemies and an even cheaper boss and so having to go ALL the way back outside to save was a hassle.
Oh yeah? That might have also caused you to dislike it more XD as much as I like 3, most FF games have evolved to be much better. FF5 DID improve the class system (as much as I hate to admit), and subsequent games in the series improved the battle system, though I thought they handled summons and magic decent. But if you went from 7 or 9 or whatever and went to 3 it probably felt ancient and bad. It's definitely very flawed though. However I feel like the worst one (in terms of BS thrown at you) is FF2. God that game can be a nightmare.
