• I'll play Final Fantasy III so you don't have to! Part 1



    Final Fantasy III is probably the most overlooked of the main series of Final Fantasy, most likely to it being released last. It has recently been released on Steam. Chances are you haven't played it and, with countless games now vying for your attention, likely never will! So don't worry, I'll do it for you!


    Luneth, the lead character of Final Fantasy 3 looks oddly like a Targaryen. Can the incompetence of the person playing as Luneth become any greater?

      Hmm, graphics look more polished than the DS version, especially the backgrounds in battle. Wonder if they've improved on the Android and iPhone or PSP graphics, though...

      I wonder, can you control the game by mouse?

      Smashing job, ol' chap! I've only played a little of the DS & NES versions, so I can't wait to see what lies in store for our heroes.

      I'm slowly but surely making my way through the DS version. This will be a nice way to compare versions as well as decisions made!

      Most likely death via random encounter.

      Okay my speakers really suck so I'm sorry if I end up commenting on or saying something that you already said. I can hear some of it but not all of it

      For now all I have to say is that the menu pic is pretty adorable . Also, I like how the giant turtle kind of just... appeared. And yeah I was wondering when you were going to use an Antarctic Wind after seeing you open the magic menu xD

      I played the DS version, but I remember not enjoying the final dungeon sort of area. I think there were really tough enemies with not very much experience so all the battles were really hard with no real chance to improve. I managed to finish it in the end though.

      I have never played this game! But maybe I will just to spite your LP title.

      It does look really clean and all that, particularly the menus. I got a bit of an RPG Maker feel from that. xD

      G-g-g-ghosts! Luneth's pal Arc joins the party, but things take a bad turn when the duo visit the town of Kazus and discover it is haunted by spooks! Luckily Cid has all the answers...

      Yeah I do love the use of words like rapscallions and raucous.

      Anyway I think I'm going to settle into a Wed-Sat update schedule until I have a huge stockpile and then I'll go for every other day.

      Things begin very, very badly. The middle also goes badly too. However, we manage to put together a crack team of retired criminals for one last score. Or just find rebellious runaway Refia and loyal Kingsguard Ingus.
