So far I like the fight command options. It's far better than just selecting Fight and choosing the target. My favorite one has to be the Laser eye one, I loved that one.

How long is this? So far I'm at Spalding Factory so I'm just curious how far (or not far) I am in it.

I'm going more by FF1 NES rather than GBA. Also, it's been some time since I played, so I may not be accurate, I'm more going on my memory which tends to fail me.

Chaos Shrine

Masamune is nice. I never really had problems except for Chaos himself, who loved to Cure4 himself and take us down easily. This was on the GBA version though. I think I didn't have a problem with the NES version of Chaos.

Marsh Cave

Blah, Marsh cave. Despite there being a few things you can get once you have the key, I never bothered. It takes too long to get there, overabundance of poisoning enemies, and the treasures there aren't really great. Maybe not the most annoying, but certainly up there. And having to fight Ogres/Creeps for enough money to afford Silver swords, Fire2 and all that is another annoyance, because you know you have to do that for the Marsh Cave anyway.

Cave of Earth

Hall of giants is pretty good for levelling, plus Earth elementals in front of chests. Unfortunately that Steel armor costs so much. It's pretty big, and at lower levels Cocatrices/Perilisks can kill you in one hit. I didn't consider it particularly annoying, plus it was nice to finally be away from Elfland and that area.

Volcano

The fire damaging can be annoying, but other than that, I wasn't particularly annoyed with it. I dunno why.

Underwater Shrine

I sometimes get lost here. Other than that, mermaids. That's about it.

Desert Spire/Mirage tower

Sometimes get lost in here too. You get some pretty nice stuff in here. Too bad WarMech's around. 1 in 64 chance. Heh. I'm unlucky enough to pretty much always run into it.

Temple of Chaos

If you mean Temple of Fiends, it is the simplest dungeon ever. Go straight, fight Garland, hope he doesn't knock you all down. The treasure isn't really worth it in my opinion.

Ice Cavern

Between armies of undead, Sorcerors which either stun the whole party or 1 hit kills them, Cocatrices (I believe they're there, I could be wrong and maybe it's Perilisks) which 1 hit kills you, Eye which one hit kills you (Although gives great EXP), and just getting lost falling into holes makes this one my most annoying. Plus I think you need to take a canoe to get there, which makes you fight monsters that poison you.

Nope. But I still do take influences from it. My first RPG was Final Fantasy 1 for the NES. I'd use a Fighter, Monk, Thief, Red Mage party and complain about everything poisoning you in the marsh cave and Sorcerors 1 hit killing you in the Ice cave.

Betcha next week he comes back with a new account asking for forgiveness

Who is this by the way?

No Tifa or Lulu in the poll? Because I want those 2 in the game. Otherwise, Terra.

The last RPG I played was Oblivion. Just an hour ago or so. I'm halfway through Shivering Isles, and I beat the Main/Fighter/Thieves/DarkBrotherhood/Mages quests. I like completing quests quickly with my 255 speed, acrobatics and stuff (Cheat mods... I can't get away from them). Too bad the Shivering Isles quests tend to take longer to complete. I like using mods to get nice looking hair, weapons, armor and other modifications for my character.

The last RPG I beat was FF6. Not a bad game, but things like the 2 team dungeon and slow spell learning kinda bored me. I eventually cheated in that too. Too bad only Mog could use the Moogle charm.

The things on my wishlist are rather expensive, so I think I'll probably get giftcards, which is fine by me.

What I'm doing for Christmas is instead of buying people presents, I'll take my family and close friends out for dinner and pay the bill, letting them and encouraging them to get whatever they want on the menu. I went to Charlie Browns steakhouse last year for this, I think this year I'll go to a brick oven pizzeria. I haven't decided.

the Final Fantasy Legend series (Game Boy) ; I think they were part of the Mana series in Japan, and translated to the FFLegend series in north america, nonetheless, one cool series (3 games, that I know of). You had a team of generic joes and janes, and depending on the game you could pick your race/class/whathaveyou, then throughout the game, eat monster meat (or metal junk) and change into different monsters etc to aquire new abilities. It was a really cool series. I enjoyed them.

Final Fantasy Legend series were part of the SaGa series, not the Mana series. Final Fantasy adventure was part of the mana series.

I played all 3 of them, and I found my favorite to be FFL2. For some reason I liked how they pulled off the weapon use system there. I found FFL3 to be really boring though, and FFL1 not as good as FFL2.

2-2 now. I find it more fun to play Hockey than Soccer. I don't like watching sports so I'm not voting based on that.
