i beat the game. i guess there's no reason not to just buy out both strength and agility for humans except that it's tedious to buy and use the item 45 times, but i kinda specialized and never broke away from that. unfortunately in the endgame agility weapons seem pretty bad. i couldn't find one that my guy was doing comparable damage with, anyway. between that and most monster techs doing low damage or being nullified i really couldn't figure out how to defeat the final boss "normally" reasonably

so i used monster teleport and went to the hardware store. was sad there's no credits, but it's fascinating this game has the first implementation of the romancing saga thing where it shows recaps of your party fighting enemies in the ending, lol...

this was such an ambitious and wonky game i really can't wait to see 2 and 3. because they have to have tried to top this, right? i don't even know what that means right now...

omg now i want to replay ffl2/3 and also play ffl1… never played that i think… big part of “I remember a lot of video games feeling like fever dreams to me as a kid” lmao

i wonder if any non-saga games have saga energy nowadays..

in reply to @tinyvalor's post:

i used to have a copy of ffl3 but i lost it in a hotel room somewhere in the 90s.

i specifically remember kid me violently revolting against the class change mechanics and never using any of it, and instead just brute forcing my way through the game with magic and swords.

you'd enjoy it, i think

Congrats on beating FFL1!

FFL2 builds on the core of FFL1 - all the "classes" return, a new one is added, and the story is still about moving world-to-world but given a tiny more depth. I suspect if you liked FFL1 you'll like FFL2. Also, they change-up how Humans progress, so you won't have to worry about buying and feeding them all those vitamins, heh.
