It's been at that point for a while, but the annual Four Job Fiesta pretty much sealed it. The jobs aren't all even in strength, but it's such that you can pretty much run with whatever assortment of jobs, and make things work in battles. Some just require a bit more strategy than others. As a result, there's just so much variety in how you can go through the game. There's a special bit of fun in playing the game for the sixth time, and just realizing that you can equip some accessory or item with an elemental affinity, and now a tough boss is totally trivialized, but really only due to some certain support skills you were able to throw on your jobs. For a while, I was playing the Ancient Cave romhack too. It's a randomly generated set of 99 floors of dungeon, and in treasure chests along the way, you'll find items, jobs, magic, etc. It's all random, so you can get some total crap, or some great stuff, but it really leads to making up strategies on the fly and experimenting with what the game's job system can do. To top it off, the game's script takes itself way less seriously than any other Final Fantasy. It has some good humorous moments, and just some oddball stuff as plot points. I embrace goofy things, so all of this is right up my alley. And then with characters, Gilgamesh is one of the best villains in a game and really adds a lot to the game when he's in it. Galuf is one of my favorite Final Fantasy characters as well. Why can't we have more good old man characters in RPGs? (and not those, grizzled old man battle veteran who also is 25 years old, but he's an old man because he teams up with a gang of 16 year olds) The music is great, as is typical of Final Fantasy, but I think I'd put it in the higher part of FF-music rankings. Battle on the Big Bridge and The Decisive Battle are absolutely fantastic and full of energy. I love the second and third world map themes. There are a lot of other good choices here. The Final Fantasy Anthology version on PS1 came with a CD with a few music tracks from the game (not the best selection, but it had some good ones), and I listened to that more than I should have back in the day. --- ONLY FIVE CAN LADDER.
