Final Fantasy Legend 3
Jul. 22nd, 2010 12:08 pmI recently replayed Final Fantasy Legend 3, known as Jikuu no Hasha ~ SaGa 3 ("The Ruler of Time and Space: SaGa 3") in Japan, the last game in that series released for the Game Boy and the last one brought to the states until SaGa Frontier, five years later.
( I do spoil some plot twists, but I find it hard to believe you've heard of this game and haven't had them spoiled already. )
The game definitely shows its age, and the translation isn't amazing (but it gets the job done, especially if you've got a good imagination--and it was actually Ted Woolsey's first project). I'd love to see a remake with a more fleshed-out plot, but I suspect that any remake that was done today would bring it more firmly into the SaGa system, with randomized stat-ups and breakable weapons.
I'm not sure whether this or FFL2 is my favorite of the SaGa series, but I have fond memories of both.
