Nothing wrong with trying an older game though |
It's very much a "had to be there" game. Not saying it's bad, but in addition to the battle system of questionable quality, the original game's script suffered from atrociously bad translation and retarded AI partners, most weapons are obsolete, the charge attacks for them are obsolete beyond a certain point, and most boss fights come down to two of the characters spamming magic while the main character sits around and watches. As someone who missed the boat on the time and played it later via virtual console, I'll say that I can see why people love it, but you very much need nostalgia goggles to get into it now, or a deep love of 16-bit era RPGs.
That said, I'm looking forward to the remake if it fixes these problems.
