I used to play this game a lot while traveling with my grandpa, I was young with a Gameboy in the mountains of Virginia, and this game will always be a reminder of the times I got to spend my granddad. Miss you grandpa, rest well.
So in this game you start off by finding a sword, armor, and a shield, pilot an island to go underwater by inhaling air from seeds, join multiple resistance organizations, build a computer and put uranium in it to blow up a bird, kill god, and then kill the guy that made god by using a chainsaw or pudding. Honestly that's probably as high fantasy as you can get really, it's pretty nuts.
Always travelled to visit grandparents this time of year, and this game kept me very quiet in the back seat. Wild to see how quickly this game goes when ya know what you're doing! ❤
I loved this as a kid. Was utterly addicted to it. Still own the cart and my original gameboy and play it when I need the nostalgia. I never knew about the saw thing until I got online. As a kid in the 90s, I used glass swords on the creator and my party was usually a human, 2 mutants, and a bot.
What a blast to see Puwexil blazing through FFL! This game was my first RPG ever, back when I was 12. Since it was untranslated, it gave me the incentive to learn English, which is a language that has become very dear to me and that I now teach to 12 year-old kids who love videogames. Quite a trip down memory lane. Thank you Puwexil!
If you never talk to the Top Hat man in the tower, then after you've defeated Ashura and dropped back down to the starting town, when you re-enter the tower the game will load the original 1st floor of the tower from the beginning of the game instead of the endgame final climb.
@@ICountFrom0 I haven't tried it myself, but I've been told that if you go into the glitched 'normal' tower, talk to Top Hat man somewhere (which can be sped up via the Teleport skill or Door item), then leave/re-enter the Tower front door, the game will load the proper endgame map.
Awe, if it was the entire tower, reset to start, being able to collect a king set, another army hat, and all the other one time drops would be worth going up the tower again. Still, being self correcting sounds good.
This was my very first game on the classic Game Boy. I was in early elementary school. First grade, I think. Obviously there are better games out there, but this one is special to me regardless.
I'd never heard of this game, but watching this I'm realising that the questline I'm currently doing in final fantasy xiv is actually a reference to this game, neat.

Fun fact, fleeing is a flat 50% chance in this game. I admire the runner's saving technique, that must be so annoying lol. Giving that emulated sram a workout

same. different state and grandpa though.

Old style D&D was more like this and less like a soap opera than the new style
I miss old Square. They were balls-to-the-wall full of innovation.
Asura isn't God. Nobody made God. Should change kill god to kill Asura, then kill God with Chainsaw or pudding.
They don't write fantasy like this anymore. God bless. Jesus loves you!
Come on, people. We all know that Big Papa Puwexil's favorite Final Fantasy is the SNES classic, Shaq Fu.
My favorite game of all time. Thanks for running it!

If Puwexil is on, its worth a watch.
Pocket or wrist?

I like catching runs by Puwexil. What a neat dude.

Great show! Thanks Puwexil, Gyre, Caeshura, and crew behind the scenes!
It's nice getting to listen to the music between the runs with Limit Break.

I'm a simple man. I see puwexil and I click.
Puwexil said if you don't talk to Top Hat at least once in the tower then bad things happen. This is the first time I heard of that. What happens?
If you never talk to the Top Hat man in the tower, then after you've defeated Ashura and dropped back down to the starting town, when you re-enter the tower the game will load the original 1st floor of the tower from the beginning of the game instead of the endgame final climb.
@@puwexil I've played through this game at least 10 times and I never knew that. Neat
Does it loop properly, if you fight your way back up again, or are the flags just shattered and you'd never progress?

New puwexil run!!

I love Puwexil’s FF runs.
That intro is tight af, good one Fuzzy
Puwexil never fails to entertain. Love to see him running something :)
a strange game, but gave us some killer tunes.

It's the 4 Saint Beasts.. awesome!
Full house for this run, damn. Standing room only.
Awesome!
What happened if you never talk to creator before the end of the game
If you never talk to the Top Hat man in the tower, then after you've defeated Ashura and dropped back down to the starting town, when you re-enter the tower the game will load the original 1st floor of the tower from the beginning of the game instead of the endgame final climb.
one of the main inspirations that caused the birth of pokemon... yes, it is that important.
What was his favorite final fantasy?

Isn't this played on real hardware? Most of these marathons use real hardware when they can.
@@jemmabean That's correct, the setup for this run was original FFL cartridge>Super Game Boy 2 adapter>SNES console>HD upscaler>capture card.
The pokemon before pokemon
I absolutely despise the game, but Puwexil is great as always.
after so many years puwexil still cant pronounce ryu right. So invested in japanese games
Who cares. It's not the end of the world.
