The music in this remaster is so absolutely mythical and beautiful... I will say, as many others have already noted that the end boss of the game is ridiculous in this port of FF and you might just want to go out of your way to emulate an older version instead. Because the way it ends up screwing with the near-seamless upward gameplay progression of the game REALLY takes you out of it. I'v never minded grinding in a game before I actually think its pretty relaxing. In this case however I couldn't stand it cause it felt weirdly placed with the rest of the game. There is not a singular other time throughout where there is a sudden need to gain levels. It ends up contrasting in a way that pulled me out of the immersion. The end boss (Chaos) being completely RNG in this version of the game ends up stifling the enjoyment of a cool final boss a lot too. The game could also really use some general balancing on both money and XP because its a bit silly to be able to max out on money that easily...

Still its a really fun title..Its adventurous and heroic in the original way. Cast off the veil of darkness and bring the world into light! ill say the NPC are a bit one note but its able to feel so incredibly vast with all its different locations and creatures..
