Despite its clichés and occasional lack of direction, many players find the charm and nostalgia of the story enjoyable, especially for fans of classic JRPGs.

“With updated graphics, improved gameplay mechanics, and a captivating story, Square Enix has successfully revitalized the third installment of the legendary Final Fantasy series.”
