That's fair honestly. FF2 isn't gonna win any awards for its story that's for sure. I just liked how it's more story emphasis than the other 2 and it's a bit of a darker tone which I admit, I am a sucker for dark tones. Almost all of my favourite games of series are games with dark tones or atmospheres xD. Also i just really appreciate its unique leveling system, I hope one day we get a remix of the system that improves upon it with modern day knowledge.

As for FF3, I actually haven't played much DQ at all, so I could understand if your a fan that something reminding you of it is a bonus lol.
