I don't know about playing through the game with multiplayer but it would be good to interact with other players. IT would be cool if you stuck 2 memory cards in the PS and you could fight with the other player, sell, trade items and teach spells. This could be of extreme value for example you could give your friend a mythril sword while he is dtill in Corneria and bolt3 to his Black Mage. :tongue: But I just don't think going through the story line with multi-player would work :confused: :confused:

well have you ever played the other ones multi player? it works in those i mean you control 2 chars and another person controls 2 chars everything functions normally just its harder cause you have to work with your partner to beat enemies. play through 5 or 6 multiplayer and youll understand why i am saying this.

I did this with VI, it was fairly boring. The problem is that there's no form of friendly competition unless you start casting Fire3 on yourselves, which makes you lose quickly. If there was some sort of dueling mode or something, that'd be awesome, but I'm not a fan of multiplayer RPGs.

No, I have a hard imagining ANY FF game being multi-player. (I've not played FF:CC on the Gamecube yet, so I'm not including that one.) For one thing, it'd only be in battles, and while I could see it being possible (though boring) with ATB system, I don't think I'll work too well with FF1. All the characters and strategies can easily be handled by one player, and all of the players would have to wait until a round of combat with the light warriors and the monsters attacking each other until they can go at it again.
It just wouldn't be fun.

I tried playing one of the games in multiplayer (2 characters each in battle). I think it was FF5 and it just wasn't any fun at all, I was 1st player and my friend got bored only controlling the battles and made me turn it off. So I can't say that I hope that they will ever include a multiplayer options that works that way again. if they however can improve it then sure go ahead and include it, but I seriously doubt it.

I'd like it if you could split your 4man party into 2*2 parties. Would make battles harder since your fighting each fight with half a party, but the exploring would go faster.

I think that option has potential, I just don't know how well it would boil down with keeping everyone interested.

It could work, but you would have to drastically change the style of game FF1 was to the point where it was like Secret of Mana (which was a great game, don't get me wrong, but it and FF1 are supposed to be different).
The only other alternative I see (in keeping it with traditional FF style gameplay) is to implement some sort of competition between players in the combat system. Something like the more kills/hits/whatever you register, the more exp you get. But that would probably become very frustrating and annoying. And that would still leave the problem of what the other player(s) do while outside of combat. FF stories are nice, and can be fun to watch, but a lot of the fun comes from that fact that they are interactive.
