The Final Fantasy V Pixel Remaster was great, but it kinda sucks for getting the Platinum. It had me vexed for a few months despite the other games on the Pixel Remaster list taking a matter of days at most. I think IV and VI both took me 3 days, 1 took me 1 day, and 2 and 3 each took me 2 days. but V? I was stuck on V from June to like October or something. Trying to juggle the Blue Magic and maximize all the jobs took forever EVEN WITH the boosters. 

Great game. Truly great game with an amazing story and great characters. Not fun to get the 100%/Platinum Trophy. I'd say it's on par with IV, overall. 

Man, I'd never played all the way through II before (Didn't care for the levelling system) and had never touched III, but having done the entire gauntlet of 1-6 via Pixel Remasters...I can say that there wasn't a dud in that series. 1-10 were all bonafide classics, all amazing games. Any franchise that can maintain a 10-game streak is damn impressive. 

I also love 12, but 11, 12, 13, 14's original version, and 15 were all pretty polarizing for different reasons. it wasn't until 16 came out earlier this year that I felt the same way I did during the franchise's best day. I legitimately liked XVI as much as VII, X, and XII, and even more than VIII and IX. 

Jachol Cave has the silver squirrel and brown squirrel enemies - at 4x booster, the brown ones give 5 ABP and the silver one gives 20 ABP.

I mastered half of all the jobs for all the characters in about 3-4 hours , pretty much all the major ones I wanted (Knight, Monk, Ninja, Berserker, Ranger for Bartz and Galuf ---- White Mage, Black Mage, Blue Mage, Red Mage, Time Mage, Summoner, Geomancer for Lenna and Faris).

I finished FF1, 2, 3 and 4 Pixel remasters back to back on Switch, will play VI next.

I've been a fan of the series since the 1990s (through emulation of IV, V and VI) but didnt get into the series until the 2000s. I've played pretty much at least 3 versions of each of the mainline FF games from 1-9. I've only finished the PS2 versions of 10/12, PS3 versions of 13/13-2 and PS4 version of 15.
