The Complete Story of Final Fantasy I (Pixel Remaster)

  • Welcome to the complete story of Final Fantasy, the game that started it all and set the stage for much of what the series would grow up to become, especially in terms of how it emphasises the story aspect of each game. To a modern audience, it might not seem like much, but back in 1987 Final Fantasy’s story represented an ambitious attempt to convey a dramatically compelling narrative via the fledgling medium of video games. Originally released on the Nintendo Famicom, the game has since then been remade and re-released on several platforms such as the original Playstation, Gameboy Advance and the PSP, in addition to being playable on PC and mobile. Now, the most recent iteration of this classic title comes as part of the Pixel Remaster series of remasters, and this dramatic retelling of the complete story of Final Fantasy will be based on that version of the game - in all its pixelated glory. Join me, fellow warriors of light as we revisit the story, the tale, the legend of Final Fantasy.

    I wanna thank you for doing these, I’ve been playing the games in the series I haven’t beaten yet, and I always get to the final boss and watch your videos BEFORE I go into the boss room. As like a sort of recap, It has allowed me to throughly ingrain myself into the story and world before I finish the amazing games :)

    Been running a D&D campaign based on this story. I have to add alot of dialogue, new locations, and more realistic situations. How do level 2 PC's defeat *the finest swordsman in Cornelia*? They don't. Instead, Garland paralyzes them, finishes a ritual, and goes back in time with the princess(who will be the one who starts the prophecy). I also made it to where my PC's DONT have the crystals because the fiends guard them. The Lich, in fact, uses the Crystal of Earth as its phylactory.
    My friends have been having such a great time and I've really been enjoying giving them a retelling of FF1, my favorite FF.

It's been like 15 years since I played the 1/2 for GBA and I never played 3 so it all feels like a new experience. Auto battle is wonderful for farming mindlessly with one hand while watching TV. My only gripe with it is they are not graphically different enough and feels like a marathon of the same game just a different chapter if that makes sense.

    Boy the comment about Garland once being a respected swordsman sure hits differently in the wake of a certain darker prequel that came out this year that revealed Garland was a man named Jack who was consumed by such an urge to kill Chaos that he became its current embodiment. EDIT: Also, apparently he's still the good guy because he did it to break an endless cycle of suffering.

      To make an confusing (and honestly long) story short, the lefenians (the creators of the prophesy) weren't actuall extinguished and dominated the power of time and space, they went to a time beyond and along the "colaborator" and a fixation with achieving balance, developed the stranger project that sends agents to bring and equilibrium thats why garland and the fiends (his friends) came to be, but the lefenians soon realized that the humans and their hearts (yup) cand give way to chaos so they decided to eliminate them, so that's why garland decided to antagonize the lefenians and took the power of time travel from them (supposedly) and he decides to "be" the bad guy so the cycle can happen and the ligh and chaos can be balanced (then the dlc happened and the story become convoluted with the brave exists and the dissidia saga, since the jack garland of dissidia is no the same of the stranger of paradise)
