Part of the fun for me was how unforgiving some of the older games were. I’d always recommend starting with the original Final Fantasy, especially if you have access to a working NES. The non-MP system, the healing item limitations, not being able to save wherever you want...it’s all part of the challenge. Playing with modern conveniences after doing that feels like easy mode. The same goes for Zelda and Dragon Warrior/Quest. Just my opinion 🤷🏼♀️
