Final Fantasy is one of the biggest video game franchises of all time, featuring dozens of games, spinoffs, and even movies! It's hard to believe that back in the late 1980's Final Fantasy wasn't a sure thing. One of the reasons they called it "Final" Fantasy was because if it didn't sell well, it might have been the last game developer Square ever made...
Today we know that isn't the case, but even after playing all of the other games in the series, the original is still fun to play, and has an impressive amount of depth for an early NES title.
So how did this classic get made? In this guide we'll find out, and then we'll dive deep into the gameplay where we'll learn:
* How to build the best party - With 126 unique party configurations, we'll find out which ones are well balanced, and which ones are lacking!
* The SECRET Level Up zone - Stop grinding for hours and just play the game!
* Understanding the combat system - Knowing how the enemy AI works will put you a step ahead!
* Where to find ALL of the treasure! There's just a TON of hidden stuff in Final Fantasy!
* Hidden characters, and secret codes - they're all in here!
* How to avoid traps that guard treasures!
* Maps, Enemy Data, Item Info and MORE - This is a true video strategy guide!
* Why the order of your party matters - changing this can make a HUGE difference!
* The BEST strategies for defeating bosses - Even Chaos himself!

"He has all of that and an outfit that says 'I might manage prostitutes'." It's eight in the morning and my day is already made. Excellent video!
-
What if I told you I still want to see Guardian Legend!!! However, doing Final Fantasy is a massive undertaking, totally appreciate your dedication to us fans! Keep up the outstanding work!

I have never seen someone on youtube combine a historical breakdown of a video game well also delivering a full video commentary instructional walkthrough all with added maps/charts and statistical overviews. This is quite unique and ambitious for a content creator.
-
I would grind Ogres for hours for xp. I'm so glad you picked this game, a true classic. This channel is a flood of forgotten memories.
-
My daughter and I love watching your videos while having breakfast. Sometimes I'll randomly sing your intro song. I sing the dog part and my daughter will add the "meow" at the end. Thanks for doing what you do.
-
I always really enjoy the "history of the game" you do before you show how to beat the games. I beat this for the first time after watching your Dragon Warrior video and beating it when I wanted more of something similar.
-
Ever wonder why some NES games asked you to hold RESET while powering OFF? It was to keep the CPU from writing bad code to your save game corrupting it. It could sometimes happen because the circuitry that prevents it was left out due to cost saving measures and the NES wasn't designed from the start for saving games.

'With the mystic key our mission becomes clear.' yes, to make everyone regret storing their anything in any chest ever

When I was a kid I found the Nintendo Power strategy guide for Final Fantasy at a thrift store. I didn't even know what FF was, but still bought it and was fascinated. I read through that thing over and over, until I had to have the actual game. I loved it, and was a diehard FF for many years after. Still have that guide to this day.

THREE HOURS. I wish I could stay up to watch this thing, but I've gotta get sleep. I will be back later. This was my absolute favorite NES game growing up.
-
Holy crap I was literally watching your DQ one last night and was thinking "I can't wait for the day they do Final Fantasy!" This came as a surprise.. time to get the popcorn
-
I think it's worth mentioning that when you are leveling up at the secret level up zone at the finger, when you save the game with a tent, if you turn the game off rather than press reset, it resets the encounter RNG so your first fight will always be zombulls/trolls. Same with water fights, your first fight will always be kyzokus. Probably the best farming tip I figured out when playing this game as a kid.

UCBVG: “And with an outfit that says he might manage prostitutes, he’s a solid addition to your team.” Me: spits out coffee
-
I've played this through at least a half dozen times, and I still love, love, LOVE this game. I'm sad that I'll never be able to experience this game for the first time again.
-
This game is an all time classic. I spent so many hours dedicated to unsuccessful attempts at completing this one. You're video here is an absolute masterpiece. Well done.
-
My favorite party comp is fighter/red mage/white mage/black mage. You get some decent beatdowns, flexible heals in clutch battles, and all the fire a pyromanica could ever want.
-
Holy cow, dude. Your informational side panels are on point with this one. Excellent work!
-
Your guide is gonna help me beat final fantasy for the first time. I never really played it as a kid. So this will be great!
-
It always fascinates me how close this game is the dungeons and dragons. You even have towns of elves, dwarves and you even have representations of tiamat and bahamut, two very important figures of dragons in dungeons and dragons

About those weapons which are supposed to be effective against particular enemy types like the dragon sword and the were sword; these items are bugged in the NES version and don't do any bonus damage. Some other versions of the game, like the Wonder Swan Color, don't suffer this bug. Like so many Square games, FF has a plethora of bugs.
