    i wouldnt say EO had tons of grinding(it did take ages to lvl up after hitting 45) just tons of unforgiving enemies. you were pretty much forced to get higher levels if you didnt get the materials to make things easier.

    I beat it on steam. I enjoyed it.

    It looks the same as the android version, however you can use a controller.

    The FPS is locked at 30.

    It's an old RPG, so prepare for some hard bosses that require strategies like turning everyone into your group into a Dragoon (you know who I'm talking about ) to make the battle easier. The game can be a little unforgiving on job changing, so I would recommend a little planning on what jobs you want your characters to have and stick to them and only think about changing once you unlock new jobs, because job level is different than character level, and you gain job experience by how many actions you perform in battle rather than how much experience the monster gives (that affects character level), so if you decide that you don't like a job once it's high level, you'll be doing a lot of grinding to make the new job catch up.

    It's a very charming old school RPG, so that entails grinding, no dungeon save points, unbalanced jobs, and difficulty spikes in dungeons and bosses. If you're into that, I would definitely recommend buying the game!

    From FFI to FFVI I'd say FFIII is the worst of them, it's extremely grindy and like it was said before it punishes you for switching classes, the last zones are the worst part, by the time you already beat almost everything and are ready to travel to Eureka you will still be 20~30 levels away from being able to kill the final boss, the last part is the grindiest.

    The game is otherwise enjoyable before you reach those "grind X levels to continue if you want to live" parts.

    Also the soundtrack is pretty good for the most part. I hated how this was only used once in the whole game http://youtu.be/5luGqEFYdLI

    you gotta do that bahamut cave grind

    It wasn't as bad because I played it on the DS, so grinding is waaay more tolerable when you're on the go and paying attention to other things, but sitting down and staring at a screen while doing it definitely sounds like more of a chore

    Lots and lots of grinding required with quite a few different jobs...so kind of like this game in a way.

    I played FFIII and FFIV in Nintendo DS, and imo FFIV is more hard than III. The last cave is awful and you need a lot of grind if you don't wanna to become overwhelmed against 2 or 4 mages pack.

    FFIII can be frustrating if you move away from the right path because mobs can kill you easy.
    Btw, i think the III jobs is fantastic, differents jobs and possibilities to create your group.

    Per example, white mage and devout. The first one has a lot low level spells but not powerfull. Devout, by contrast, has a few low, mid and high rank, but that high level spells are powerful.

    To leveling jobs, you didn't need fight against high mobs, just search a low mobs in a cave, battle and guard around 5-15 times and then end the fight. Using jobs abilities increase the xp earn
