Absolutely must play! FFV has quickly become one of my favorites in the series. It's incredibly hard and has an awesome job system. I've played it through many times!

i absoultly love the job system in this FF and again like FF4 it has quite the challenge! but i love challenges

yes it is one of the best

anyone here like gilgamesh i know i do


as for challenge i really have no clue what you guys are talking about i found this game way to easy i really didnt have any trouble with omega or shinryu either


it also has a high replay value and its cheap you really dont loose there

If you’re a serious FF fan, then it’s definitely worth at least one play through, whether or not you want to add it to your collection is up to you.

+ The story is alright.
+ The battle system and game play are challenging as well as fun.

- The characters were alright, but there’s very little in the way of character development.

Other than that, this game is much simpler in terms of complexity as compared to the later PS1 titles, but still worth a one play through, in my opinion.

i'm playing the GBA remake myself, i think its worth getting. There are lots of jobs to choose from and i hear its a very large game too. The story may not be as indepth as VI but it does have its funny bits

Definitly worth playing. Job System allows a flexable team all the time and each character has their own unique look for each job so doesn't look tacky like FFI and III. The story, despite the slack it gets, is actually pretty good and intresting though parts can be highly annoying. Humore from IV has been retained so it's not terribly seirous. Fairly hard for new players to the game and you don't use guides as some parts of the game (such as certain monsters and bosses) can be a bit of a trial and error kinda thing, but thats a good thing in my opinon. If you like collecting Blue Magic then theres a fair bit to find, with some actually usefull though ofcourse not entirly necassary. Has quite a few side area's and quests to do so if you like exploring and find ing secrets its a definite plus. and Galuf's exit rivals that of a certain Aerith in a later game

Oh and it has Gilgamesh.

I never really viewed as hard, but I usually end up grinding hardcore when I get the first set of jobs...but I definitely think this game is worth it. The job combinations allow for so much customization and strategizing, or you could go the simple route and not worry about it. I find myself playing it and VII most often when I break out my PSX Emulator.

I've played through FFV on the PSX and NES, and am currently working on the GBA version. So far the PSX version has my preferred vote, but apparently the GBA version has improved mega bosses which is what i'm after.
At any rate, get FFV for sure, it ranks second in the classics behind FFVI imo.

I am sad to say ( as I consider myself a hardcore ff fan) that I have never played this one all the way through. I really need to go back and play this one again, all the way this time. You have all convinced me it is worth doing.

*I personnaly think this gameshould be obtained by every final fantasy lover! why oh why you might ask? well ....

-the story is interesting and each character has a role to play in the game

-the battle system is great,you can try out new strategies and techniques.

-Job system is awesome,there are various ways to customize your characters abilities its really fun

-monsters are more than just level up tool,they can become allies and have valuable abilities to aid you in your quest therefore making the game more interesting

*have fun and enjoy the final fantasy V expirience weeeeeeee
