I wanted to like this, but something felt off the whole time. Not just that the graphics and spell names had changed, but it just felt way too easy. It wasn't until I hit level50 on Tiamat's bridge trying to find "WarMech" now named "Death Machine" I guess that I realized they had changed the leveling and the XP. 50 was no longer the max level, and hitting level50 took 30+ hours in the original. I hit 50 in 10 hours on this version of the game.

When reading guides online, that's when I realized this is some weird frankenstein version of Dawn of Souls. They took the tech, like the graphics updates and the balancing changes with leveling from Dawn of Souls, but then removed stuff from Dawn of Souls like the extra dungeons and end game content present in Dawn of Souls! But they the leveling in place! So the game is way way way too easy with no end-game content like Dawn of Souls.

So besides the disappointing partial updates from Dawn of Souls with no extra dungeons, and the bad balancing feel making the game unrewarding and challengeless, they made it so you can supposedly change your spells but you can't. You can forget a spell, but it won't let you learn any other spell than the one that was previous in the slot. Again, a feature from Dawn of Souls which looks like is broken on this implementation.

I'm down voting. They should have included full Dawn of Souls content or none of it at all, because they broke the balance of the game with what they did.

This was my first Final Fantasy game I’ve ever played and I was not disappointed! Shout out my friend from work who recommended me to start playing the games, Honestly I thought it was really fun and enjoyable despite being an old game! Even the background music was good! Was stuck on the final boss level for a bit and was driving me crazy but I still loved it! Final Fantasy 2 here I come!

Yes.
