I can't remember where it is that I've gotten the farthest in FF1, but I think my biggest issue with it was the same problem with the old NES RPGs, where they throw you out somewhere and expect you to know wtf is happening.

Its not so much they expect you to just know; they expect you to pay VERY close attention and take notes.

But I definitely see what you're saying. At one point in FF1 there's, like, five different things you need to do all at once and about 15 NPCs stretched across the entire world giving vague hints about what those things are. Its pretty crazy.

That would be the part where bahamut is involved. Oh and the other stuff you have to do. it was at that point I was all "FAQ?" and I did it.

I don't like FAQs unless I'm just that desperate. Probably why I looked to one a bunch of times for Valkyria Chronicles. I sucked at that game a good portion of the time, it's a shame it's really good.
