As always, this is such a tight little experience even if the two thirds is more or less walking from point A to point b. Lots of great moments that never get old for me coupled with a great cast makes this something I can easily return to almost anytime. There were a few hiccups with this version like a turn bug that sometimes let characters go twice in a row, an amusing quicksave bug that made farming flan princesses' far easier, and the usual lackluster music common in all the GBA Final Fantasy releases. I'm not a fan of the added dungeons in these releases either as I prefer the vanilla experience but I did read up on the one offered here and it did pique my interest even if I didn't follow up. The randomized floors made it sound like a very interesting experience and maybe something ahead of its time. That said, I do want a more difficult FF4 experience so no doubt I'll be turning my attention to the 3D remake before long.
