Final Fantasy: Mystic Quest
Why???
A lot of people still believe that this game is completely not worth it, think again. Here is a list of all the postive ends of the game.
* The music is fantastic. The Fireburg music will have you
dancing, and the Doom Castle music is one of a kind. The Battle music is
also a great piece.
* Although the graphics aren't up to par with todays standards,
they were fantastic back in 1992. That's right, Mystic Quest was made in
1992. Impressive, huh?
* Straightforward storyline. This was probably due to the beginner
element once again, however, I hear most people nowadays yelling things
like "non-linear sucks!". Mystic Quest is about as linear as you can get.
* For those of you who like hack-and-slash, there's lots of that
in Mystic Quest.
Mystic Quest was also great for beginners in more ways than one:
* No complicated equiping of items, armor, weapons, etc. You just
had a weapon, and several pieces of armor that auto-equiped themselves.
* No random monster encounters. Good if you need to leave a
dungeon and go back to a town, and not worry about any monsters what
so ever.
* Your second party member could be set to fight on his/her own,
thus allowing the player to concentrate on his own method of attack,
rather than confuse the player with many options at once.
Lastly, Mystic Quest is -fun-. If you go to play Mystic Quest with
a negative attitude about the game, you're not going to have fun while
playing it. Play it with a positive attitude and you'll have _alot_ more
fun. Trust me, Mystic Quest is great!
