I guess you could say the struggle wasn't real. So the four heroes wander and protect the land with nobody ever knowing their struggle. After all, you defeated Chaos two thousand years in the past none of the problems the world faced originally have happened. All the terrible struggles you went through to save the world are wiped clean. When you return back to present time, nobody even knows your name. As you defeat Garland, who transforms into Chaos, you break the time loop that the game is locked in. Having to go back in time two thousand years to fight Garland at his most powerful shocked the hell out of me! In fact, this leads me to my next point: the story, while superficially simple, has a seriously bittersweet ending due to this twist. Then two thousand years later, weak and old, he is attacked by four young heroes and wounded. The loop is that you defeat Garland at the start of the game, and the four elemental Fiends send him back in time to hide and recuperate, allowing him to grow their power and send them out to take the Crystals’ light.

The fact that everything was a closed time loop absolutely blew my mind then and it’s still impressive to me even now that they thought of it back in the late ‘80s. I remember the first time I realized what was happening when I played this on my GBA seven years ago. Spoilers beyond this point!!! Skip this section if you don’t want to be spoiled! I was pleasantly surprised that they didn’t just go the obvious route. I wasn’t around in 1987, but I can only imagine that it was positively shocking at the time. Without going into too many spoilers outside the spoiler section below, I must say that the story does go in a very surprising direction.

Now, as you advance through the plot, things do end up getting a little more complicated. It’s your job to defeat these monsters and restore light to the crystals so that everything can go back to normal. Because of this, the seas rage, the earth decays, the winds stop, and everything just generally sucks. The light of the four elemental crystals is faded because of the four elemental Fiends. The whole plot revolves around your four young heroes going to save the world. You make your four characters from six choices of class, and you’re tossed right into it. The first game is extremely light on story, with cutscenes relegated to a few minutes at the absolute most. Four young heroes, each with a crystal in their hands, show up in Cornelia one day, and before they know it they’re on a quest to save the world! Yes, it is that quick. No frills, no real story beyond some splash text about the world falling apart. Story “When darkness veils the world, four Warriors of Light shall come.”įinal Fantasy starts you off right away. Sorry about that! Anyway, without further ado. Welcome to the Year of Final Fantasy!įair warning, I had no way to get direct screenshots from my PSP, so I may have some ugly pictures. My name is Connor Foss, and I invite you on this journey with me. That brings me to the game that started it all. Please be sure to check out other entries in the Year of Final Fantasy! This will end next December by the 18th, which will mark the 30th anniversary of Final Fantasy. Setting aside all love, hate, and prejudices about each title, I will play through them and come at each one with a clean slate to give each title a fair chance. Starting this month with the first Final Fantasy, I will go through a main non-MMO title each month and do an in-depth look at it.

It’s by far one of my favorite series of all time, and I thought that I should partake the coming celebration! So, in a flash of about 15 minutes, I came up with a roadmap of celebration.
