    That they arrived so quickly on the Job System &nbsp;- which one way or another would define the franchise as a whole - is remarkable. You have AAA games today with years of development and millions sunk into them that don&apos;t have the same level of thought put to into their core mechanics.

    Please keep this up. Most retrospectives of games from other creators are just elongated reviews. This is a proper history lesson. <br><br>If I may, I would love this format for a FFV. I hear that was when FF finally exploded in Japan, and if true I&apos;m curious of its impact in Japan in the 90s.

    Final Fantasy III is far and away fhe most underrated game in the series to me. Barely anyone talks about it, and yet it&apos;s a solid game start to finish and some peak retro RPG goodness

    The Onion Knight is a real knight for protecting Terra in Dissidia. Also he helped in killing Chaos!

    My Final Fantasy journey started on 2009-2010 (i almost cant remember now) with a hacked PSP and Final Fantasy III, i swear on my life i&apos;ll finish every main line Final Fantasy someday

    To this day, this is the only main line FF game that I still haven&apos;t played, though I intend to now that the Pixel Remaster has been released. I was extremely upset and frustrated when the Nintendo DS version released for two main reasons:<br><br><br>1. I have a very difficult time playing any video games on small screens including mobile and handheld due to eye strain. Past handheld games had been playable on full sized TVs through officially released accessories (Gameboy, GBA, PSP), but the DS never offered one.<br><br><br>2. The changes to the game. I loved the 16 bit conversion that had been done for FFI and FFII on the PS1 and GBA as the games were otherwise mostly the same, but it looked like FFIII had been much more drastically changed from the original and I didn&apos;t care for the 3D art style that was used for this or the DS version of FFIV.<br><br>I&apos;m very glad to see that this game finally got something of a faithful release for consoles and I&apos;m looking forward to playing it once I get caught up on my gaming backlog.

    Another wonderful video. Love this series. As someone said in the comments, I highly praise the historical context that is included in these retrospectives.

    Maybe because it was locked away from the English market for so long, but III holds such a huge spot in my heart and still sits somewhere in my top 5 favorites. Easily my favorite game from the DS
