My next stop in my Final Fantasy journey took me to Final Fantasy III. FF3 was another step forward for me, as I feel like they FF3 continued to expand on the first two games and add more interesting features and elements to FF3. For starters, the job system in FF3 is a very nice addition to the game, I was not the biggest fan of the leveling system in FF2, so the change to the job system was a nice one for me. I really like how many different types and options of jobs there are, as this adds a bigger variety of gameplay options that will vary depending on a players preference of class/job. You are basically required to use certain jobs like white mage for survival and a thief to open locks, but overall it was a nice change. The music was also really nice for me. The first two Final Fantasy games had a more limited musical selection throughout the game, and in FF3 I felt like it had the best variety and quality of music in the NES pixel remasters, which can be expected as it is the sequels. The music is really good in Final Fantasy III. The overall world is interesting too, as I felt like the world and the fights were the best out of the OG trilogy. The multiple continents was something I was not expecting, and the story was decent overall, although I do have one problem with it. The issue I have is that the main cast of characters went back to placeholders like it was in the original Final Fantasy. I liked how in FF2 your party were actual characters, and while it was not the most in depth thing ever, I prefer that style alot more over FF1 and FF3. I was not a big fan of that. Overall, I do not have a ton to say about FF3 as I do feel it is a improvement of both the first and second Final Fantasy game. While I do prefer the storytelling style of FF2, basically everything else is better, as the job system, the music and the overall world design of the game feel like an enhancement. Playing the first three NES was more fun then I thought, as it was cool to see the roots of the Final Fantasy series, and with the pixel remakes, they were all a better experience then I would have thought. I would recommend FF3, as well as all the first 3 FF pixel remakes if you want to play a fun, simple turn based JRPG or just want to see the origins of the Final Fantasy series. For me, FF3 is the best game out of the first 3 Final Fantasy games. 7.5/10

The "Open World" map in FFIII is my favorite part, super creative for its time. Still enjoy FFII more, but this does feel like a more faithful sequel to the first Final Fantasy.

Like the first two games, Final Fantasy III delivers a solid 8-bit era JRPG experience. The pixel art is great, the locations are interesting, and the soundtrack is amazing. The story is simple and very similar to the previous games, though it does introduce a few new mechanics. I was glad to see the progression system from FF2 gone in favor of traditional hero levels and job levels. That said, I found the job system to be almost a nonfactor during my playthrough. Once I unlocked the Black Belt job, I just rolled with four Black Belts stocked with potions for the entire game and never felt much need to experiment further. It's been interesting playing these games in order and seeing how the series evolves from one entry to the next. Up to this point, FF1 is still my favorite of the 8-bit era games. Even so, FF3 was a fun experience and another enjoyable step through the franchise's history. I'm excited to move on to FF4 and see what the jump into the 16-bit era brings.

Final Fantasy III is a solid classic RPG that improves on earlier entries and introduces some important features that would become staples of the series. The gameplay is most notable for its job system. Being able to switch between different classes adds a lot of flexibility and lets you experiment with different playstyles, which keeps the game interesting. The overall experience feels more polished compared to the previous games. Combat, progression, and world design are all more refined, making it easier to get into and more enjoyable to play. The story is simple but works well for the type of game it is. It doesn’t go too deep, but it gives you enough motivation to keep progressing through the adventure. Overall, Final Fantasy III is a strong step forward for the series and a fun classic RPG that still holds up. Gameplay: 8/10 Very Good | Overall: 9/10 Great

I was originally going to be kind of harsh to this one but then I heard the map screen song and my entire body kind of relaxed. Final Fantasy 3 has a lot to offer. I would say this is the game that first nailed that sense of adventure quite well, rather than offering a "mission" like the other ones. Being the first game that introduced the job system, it's quite clunky and sloppy. Despite how big this system is to the game, there's not really an overview of what each job can offer and some upgrades are obtained stupidly early meanwhile others can only be used in the last hour of gameplay (cough cough, Eureka, cough cough). It's.. a bit all over the place and it just reminded me of Pikmin 2, getting frustrated because I didn't know beforehand what jobs to bring cuz some can open doors and such and I didn't want to miss out on that. For me the highlight came with the exploration. I loved having to cast a debuff on myself to become miniature and be able to enter the eye of a gargoyle or something and that there was a miniature dungeon there, it felt really, really cool. If you're coming from FFXIV, you're gonna see - First instances of Leviathan - Eternal Wind (G'raha's song) - The Labyrinth of the Ancients - The Crystal Tower - Eureka, The Forbidden Land
