Reviews from

in the past


Why was the main character's name localized as Butz...

Jobs are back and improved, the ost still being a banger and characters are ok.
Pretty solid game.

Backlogged ate my review of this and I don't have the strength to talk about ff5 twice in depth. It's fine. Bit bland compared to its pedigree. Worth playing but don't get bent out of shape trying to.

The job system does most of the heavy lifting here. Builds aren’t as flexible as they would eventually become in 7, Tactics, 12 etc. though you can get pretty creative in 5; there’s still plenty to sink your teeth into.

I would say everything else is just varying degrees of decent.

The story is serviceable (with some funny moments peppered throughout, at least in the GBA localisation), the way it’s structured is perfectly adequate, the visuals are functional, and the music is good—sometimes great—albeit not quite up to the standard that Uematsu set for himself on many other games, and there also just isn’t enough of it; perhaps it’s to be expected for a SNES game, but you’ll encounter a ton of repeating tracks.

That’s about all I have to say about FF5. I like it. I’ll replay it some day.


termine Final Fantasy V! probablemente el mejor de los Pixel Remaster a los momentos, el sistema de los trabajos es demasiado adictivo :'v y la verdad me gusta cuando los JRPGs son queseables

- Good rpg even if it feels a bit derivative of the previous game.
- The plot is serviceable if sadly a bit forgettable.
- OST is actually better then FF4 and has some memorable tracks in it.
