[QUOTE="RedNEXUS"]I've completed FF1 and have now moved on to FF2, I'm on the 'Destroy the Dreadnought' mission and I have to say that this game is great! Its a complete improvement on FF1, It has better depth, story and playability. I'm still finding my footing with the new magic and stat levelling system and sometimes the game punishes me for not saving but those are the only negatives in what is a great FF.Amnesiac23

LOL I'm in the exact same place in Final Fantasy II (yes, I've finally moved on in my FF marathon lol) It's amazing that in one year they made FFII which was SUCH an improvement over the first game. FFII is fun no matter what anyone says :P

Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of FF2. For one the stat progression system is a real chore to work with. On one hand, it allows for a lot of variation on developing your characters, but on the other hand it can lead to a very unbalanced party. I play the game every now and then as I'm attempting to beat every game in the series, but I don't really have too much fun playing it. The characters aren't very interesting and the story and dialogue is pretty bland. Upon it's original release, the game was probably seen as an innovative addition to the world of Role Playing games. For me, presently it just can't compare to ANY of the other titles in the main series.

On a further note, I beat FF3, I'm close to finishing both 7 and dirge of cerberus, and I started FF4 last week.
