the first time I've beaten FFII(via NES-Emulator), I was really angry about the "stupid" statsystem!
It took lots of hours to get your chars strong...

now, after I've beaten the game 4 times(3-times-NES, 1-time-WSC) I LOVE the game!!!
the story, characters + the leveling system are a nice, its challenging(if you don't level up too much!) and its fun to fight the Emperor without Bloodswords

but there is one thing I dislike!
extremely easy bosses! like in FF9, there isn't a special challenge because most boss monsters are alot easier than a package of hard monsters!

still, I like the game alot!!

it reaches Nr.6 in my fav-game-list

1:FFVI
1:FFVII(both unbeatable)
3:Chrono Trigger
4:FFIX
4:FFIV(both I like as much)
6:FFII
6iablo II - LOD

Wait till you play it on Origins, that's great I liked it on Origins, on the NES I just didn't have the willpower to play it(Although I did FFI alright, although currently I don't have the will power to take on FFIII that much)

I totally agree about the lack of hard bosses, to me, random encounters were a nightmare, and were harder than the bosses. I kept memo-saving it every few steps in case of a hard battle. But FFII is an underatted game, the only major problem was that most of the game's gameplay was "Now we need you to go to [location] with [character] in order to get [item], although in order to get [item] you'll need to go to the bottom of [cave] in order to get a [item2]" over and over again, which just left me feeling drained and demoralised - after dragging my way through one ordeal, I have to go through another one.

I still like it though!

Well Psychotic... you've GOTTA play FF III... I do understand about the lack of will thought.

I got through FF I... couldn't will myself well into FF II and FF III took me about 4 tries spanning about 2 years before I finally made it past some of the rather crappy early points and then I was just like WOW for the rest of the game. FF III rests very near the top of my list of FFs.

FF VI
FF IX
FF III
FF VII etc etc... (Yeah... it impressed me that much)

I had a great time playing it today - I was stalked by Cid for a period of time, before helping his sick wife. As a reward, he let me go into a treasure room, yet while I was doing this he decided to brick up the entrance, what a lovely man. I got my revenge my forcing him to levitate through the wall of his house, and refusing to let him back in.... Don't ask.

After lunch, I meant to select restore state, but selected save state. NO!!!!!!! I had to start alllll over again. I got to the same point where I started today, just before the Sealed Cave.

FF IIIj is such a great game. I hope they eventually remake it for the US.

BTW, has anyone seen or know if there is a FF3j WSC rom?

[DJZen]

For there to be a rom of FF3 WSC, a cartridge has to have been made. It wasn't. Square said they were planning on remaking FF3 for WSC but apparently they decided to remake FF4 again instead. Now that the WSC is pretty much dead in Japan, it seems unlikely that Square will ever remake FF3 for WSC. I'm hoping they do it for GBA at the least.

FFII & III are great games... I hope FFIII will come out for psx!
Why don't they do a FFIII, Seiken Densetsu III release??

[DJZen]

I can answer that with one word: money.
