Final Fantasy III has always been among my favorite entry in the franchise. I played this back when the only way to experience the game was through a fan translation romhack and going through it again for a second time sent me waves of pure nostalgia that I couldn't describe properly. This game is just so cute and adorable to look at, it manages to make me feel happy just by having it in front of me. Peak comfy game to play over the weekend.

A return to form after the clunky experimentation of the second game. While the story isn't particularly strong, the gameplay is a polished up version of the first two with some new series staples introduced for the first time, namely the job system, as well as special moves like "Jump". Overall a decent if somewhat forgettable entry in the series.
