Final Fantasy (1987): Four Warriors of Light set out to restore elemental crystals and save a fading world. It established the series’ core DNA: crystals, airships, job classes, and turn-based battles. AKA Final Fantasy I, FFI, FF1
This is one where word of mouth probably carried a lot of it through the early years. I know it was pretty easy to convince others once they saw the graphics though.
Yes. It is true there are so many talks and reviews that talk about this game. The reviews are positive. When someone goes ahead to play the game, he finds it very nice and therefore continues to play it. And this is the trend with all FF games. They attract a stream of playing towards them.
I come across FF1 , when i got bored with games i play, i kinda feel i want some new and much more interesting game to play. Then my friend recommend playing FF1, I thought this game is boring, but when i tried to play it, damn it was a good one. Since then, I play every series that comes out.
I am pretty sure that I thought it was gonna be a game that was not really for me but that changed pretty quickly. Never judge a book by its cover though, as they say.
We were a bunch of rowdy high schoolers back then and we loved to skip classes. Back then, billiards and jamming at the park were the usual activities of youngn's like us. Then someone put up a video arcade just across the street from my school and set up PS1's. Started out as a hangout for university students then we soon followed and that's when we stumbled upon Final Fantasy.
I have heard about the Final Fantasy series a long time ago, but didn't know what they were about. So I checked it out and started with the first one even though someone suggested a different approach to the game, I still want to go from 1. It was really fun playing the game and now I can't wait for the PC port of FF15.
Discovering Final Fantasy 1 was purely by accident or luck if you can call it that. I saw a friend play the psp version and I guess the rest is as they say , history.
I don't think that I would be leaving anything to chance as being the reason why such happened. I believe that there is a purpose for anything that happens. So my getting to know about the game Final Fantasy was a thing of chance but a calculated event that led to my discount of the game.
I am pretty sure that I thought it was gonna be a game that was not really for me but that changed pretty quickly. Never judge a book by its cover though, as they say.
I completely agree with you on this, never judge anything too brashly because you would be stunned on what that could turn out to offer and it's exactly what happened with the Final Fantasy games.
Most of the games which I play today are introduced to me by some crazy gaming friends of mine and the same thing goes with how Final Fantasy games was introduced to me. It was one of my old friends who happened to be my classmate that got me hooked up with playing FF games.
When I was young I used to watch my older brothers play with their friends. I used to cry for them to let me play. Unfortunately, I was so young and used to fail at it. My interest grew from there and I have never regretted having an interest in it.
