How far did you get the first time...

[Hazzard]

Come to think of it, I've never gotten a GameOver ever.

You should try it. It builds determination and character.

...before everyone in your party was KO'ed?
I just started playing FF1 this weekend and I was dead before I fought the boss in the Temple of Chaos.

I can't exactly remember how, but the same thing happened to me. That was the only time my party was wiped out, though.

I definitely got lost en route to Pravoka and died at least once or twice. Fun stuff. The NES version is really quite difficult compared to the GBA version.

I played none stop to the Temple of Chaos, when you fight the Young Garland aka Chaos.
And now I keep dieing.

The cave near Elfland was a nightmare for me. I also died when I was going to Pravoka for the first time.

I never have these problems, because I exp grind a LOT. I like being over powered. I guess depending on your play style that might sound cheap, but for me it makes it more enjoyable. I like just ripping through mobs.

[Creeping Shadow]

The first time I got KO'ed was against chaos at the end.

[ljkkjlcm9]

most definitely the Marsh Cave. I think I lost two characters against the wizard, and on the way back, two got paralyzed and slowly widdled down to nothing.

On following journeys, my Fighter would be the only one to live, and even fight a GrOgre and two Ogres on the way back and win the battle lol

Fighter ftw

FF1 was indeed the first RPG type game I had played (besides CT along time ago) so I had no idea what I was doing. I'm pretty sure I died more times than I can count but the problem was since I didn't know what I was doing, I had all the time in the world to level up.

So by the time i actually figured things out I was already massively over-leveled. Which makes for a kind of boring game for the first bit of it.
