I jumped on this game after enjoying what FF7 Remake had to offer. With the impending release of Rebirth, I felt that I needed to familiarize myself with the source material to experience the full impact of what that game will have to offer and I wasn't disappointed. The story is iconic with a great cast of characters and a classic turn-based battle system that's only made better by the Materia system in the game. There are some issues I have such as some objectives not being the most obvious for newcomers, multiple optional (and easily missable) party members, and a few areas that aren't the most enjoyable to traverse. With that said though, for a game that helped to bolster the JRPG genre in the West as well as being the first 3D Final Fantasy game, it more than makes up for those nitpicks with a great RPG experience and it's no wonder it has garnered the reputation that it has over the years.
