I say this game is worth getting because of the deep and innovating story line, the job system is incredible, if you dont get this game you have to be dumb!

i would say yes get this game but only from a collectors stand point. not a fan of the job system, takes away from characters personal development and can be tedious getting certain job abilities. i cant say this is the worst ff game but it is also not the best. some jobs are interesting some are worthless thing is its all up to the player to mix and match jobs and abilities which does make for some replay ability. basically boils down to your preferences that determines your characters. again, an ok game but thats it just ok nothing special here.

out of all the super nintendo final fantasies, V is the weakest. The story and characters are cliched and dull. The villian is 2d, and basically a Golbez ripoff. The bosses are cheap, with some being reused from earlier in the game, and copying bosses from FFIV. the music, while good, lacks the power of FFIV's. The job system is good, but requires a lot of work and kills off any characterisation in the main plot. The graphics are superioir to IV, with characters showing all kind of emotions and animations etc. So on a whole, as a stand alone RPG, V is pretty decent, but compared to the other Super NES Final Fantasies it just dosen't add up. It feels cheap and cliched. It's in between IV and VI, and thats all.

I'm about half way through FFV and I just can't seem to get into it, if you want to complete your collection then yeah, I'd say it's worth it, I'm not sure I can even bring myself to complete it, I just can't be fussed with it. I normally like jobs an' that but Im just not feeling it at all with this game. I like the characters and the story isn't all that bad but there's just something about it that makes me feel a little disinterested and I can't quite put my finger on it >_>
I left it unplayed for like 3 weeks and now I can't even remember where Im supposed to be going. Ugh.....Im sure other people love it but it's just not for me I don't think, I would have completed it ages ago if it was any other FF <_<

I have the GBA version of Final Fantasy V, and I'm waiting for the announcement of the DS version of FF5... =/
Needless to say, I really enjoy this game, like a more advanced version of Final Fantasy III...
