Although it can't stand up to the standards of today, Final Fantasy 4's story was pretty good at the time.

BAH! Typing that in my post makes me sick, even if it wasn't serious. Who gets annoyed whenever those professional reviewing peoples say something like that, like it's an absolute FACT that the older Final Fantasies are obsolete and can't stand up to new RPGs? And they do, don't think they don't.
The games were definitely good for their time, obviously, but they're good now, and Final Fantasy 4's story basically PWNs the one in every other RPG ever made, even today. The only other story that rivals it is Phantasy Star 4's.
Hmm... I can't think of something good to conclude this topic.
Sheep.
