I liked it. The Endgame job which is pretty much Monk+ was my favorite.
>>
Final dungeon was a pain but the game was pretty fun otherwise

>>319726012
I only played the DS version up to the battle with Hyne, but I enjoyed it.

The famicom version however is probably one of my favorite FF's. Loved the encouragement it lent to experiment with different setups. Trouble with a dungeon or boss? Change up the classes and see what happens. Also appreciate that it has just enough story to carry the player through the locations.

Exactly why I loved this game, it was so unique in that respect. I don't know how they fucked Bravely Default up so bad, all they had to do was FF3-2 + story, but instead they fucked it up.

Word.

Also, FF3 had one of my favorite airship themes in the Invincible

A tune to say: Yeah, we just unearthed this ancient, legendary airship with complete self sustaining facilities which is perpetually aloft and can clear mountain ranges. We're going to find that Zande dude and rule the fucking world, so go on and enjoy your submersible airship, I hope you find a mermaid to jerk off to.

I fucking loved the boss theme, by far one of the best in the series. I also liked how when you get to Xande it's underwhelming, as is his fight, bu then you see the real end-game.
>>
>>319726012
Honestly, I didn't like this game very much. Pretty boring and bland. Nothing about the story was exciting or new, the battle system was average and the graphics... I just don't like that chibi shit. Playing it felt like a chore.

While we're discussing music, I found this piece downright haunting the first time it played

You've just left what you've known is the world and discovered that it's only a fraction, and a majority of the surface world is desolate, empty ocean. This music really can tell the story better than the dialog can.
>>

FFIII definitely had a good OST.

Are there any mods for this game? Graphic or otherwise? I think I know the answer, but I wanna be sure.
>>
>>319726012
Great music in this game, one of the few FF games I've ever beaten

>>319728560
I've found three

Early game is pretty hard unless you know how to use items and scholar.
Melee become too fucking powerful at the halfway point, and generally everything becomes piss easy then. Also black mage and it's upgrades became utterly useless.
Changing to the jobs of the Earth Crystal wasn't all that a good idea because by that time you already have other jobs a level 80-ish, which highly improves your hit count/crit rate/damage and switching to a new job like Ninja would have to begin at level 1 again.

I actually quite liked it, don't know why everyone is shitting on the remake, I never played the original, though.
>>
>>319729253
But no one is shitting on the remake here, anon
>>
>>319729515
Not in this thread, but I have seem quite some posts on /v/ saying that the remake of 3 is much worse than the original.
>>
>>319729584
>the remake of 3 is much worse than the original.
How? It's the same shit, with shitty graphical upgrades. Why there aren't graphic mods for this I'll never know.
>>
>>319729584
Right. I also liked the original more than the remake, but that was because I didn't feel like the party characters really needed names or personalities. both are still fun.

We're also on /v/ where exaggerating awfulness is key
>>
Not related.

The only FF games I've played to completion were 7-10

Are 1-6 worth playing? I've played V and VI, but usually quit halfway through for one reason or another
>>
>>319729801
>How?
Not my opinion, so I don't know.
However, I know that it's not the same shit. The original didn't have job levels, only normal levels, it didn't force status mali for a job switch on you and the jobs Ninja and Sage were found separately and were powerful enough to literally make every other job obsolete.
>>
Absolutely loved this game as it's basically proto FFV. Too bad Scholar sucks complete shit and is only useful in one boss fight in the entire game.
>>
>>319729957
IV is probably the only one "worth" playing. III is great if you like job systems, but frankly does everything else very poorly, except music.
>>
Only FF game with a more boring grinding is 2
>>
>>319729957
having played 7-10, your approach to the older games might be gauged by how much you may or may not have liked 9.

FF6 would probably be the place to try first. It's a transistory period between old-school ff and what it would become, so it's likely to be the most familiar for you.

If you like 6, try 4 again. 3 is the best of the nes trio, and unless you like it and 5, I couldn't recommend 1 or 2.
