The first Final Fantasy game still holds up today despite being outdated in many ways: the same cannot be said for this game. The gameplay was completely retooled and the new mechanics are not as classic as the original and aren't refined enough to be good. The SaGa series took the ideas in this game and improved upon them but unfortunately, they don't work here. Despite the lackluster gameplay, the graphics and music in this PSP version are outstanding and at least make the game worth playing. The story is better and more complex than the first game but because of the tedious grinding and monotonous gameplay, this entry is one of the worst Final Fantasy games.
