Final Fantasy V - another one of those "finalok" that did not reach the English-speaking countries at one time. True, unlike the third part, had not to wait 16 years, and some seven: the 1999 English-speaking Final Fantasy V appeared in the collection of Final Fantasy Anthology for PS one. Another seven years - and former high-tech game for home consoles has registered on the weakest of the pocket.
Compared with the fourth part five good strong all. The dialogues are witty and sparkling with humor, much tidier graphics, music Nobuo Uematsu is still gorgeous (which stands alone Clash on the Big Bridge!); In the actions of the characters start traced the logic, the plot got rid of the glaring inconsistencies; mode ATB has brought to mind and the organization of classes grew out of diapers. Play finally was nice.
Final Fantasy V - is the summit, which entrenched episodes before the arrival of the "great" - the sixth and then seventh parts. The plot is still weak (again, four of the hero rescued four crystals, and fight with the world evil), but the flow and the number of possible detail leaves behind all the FF-predecessors. A really well written characters in the dialogues simply did come to life. Despite the primitive graphics scene sketches, FF V can be well feed and funny moments, and the dramatic scenes - and to arouse interest in the player even if not the best, but history.

As in the story, the combat system, FF V to maintain continuity third part - in other words, again in your wards for more than two dozen jobs to choose from. The development of the boevki is acquiring new skills, characters used in their professions and the subsequent "free" their gear. For example, if the hero has reached the second level as a white mage, then change the profession to, for example, a hunter, he can, equipped with appropriate skills to use white magic in the second level. And it is nothing to prevent switching to any other profession, from which to apply the already hunting skills. In fact, each character available capacity of the two classes at once - and on your choice of career of the hero depends success in battle. Final Fantasy V - the game is not easy, but it is particularly difficult, too, did not call.
The fighting at the expense of refinement ATB-system is very dynamic - a match for the entire game, which is compared with the same FF III for the DS simply is "flying". Yes, the gameplay in FFV ported significantly better than in a converted FF III (that's understandable). A supplement in the form of four new professions, new dungeons, and all melochovki like "bestiary" good spur interest. Final Fantasy V Advance - best reincarnation of the classic RPG from Square, and deserves evaluation "excellent".
 | Lost in translation |
Initially, Square did not want to transfer FF V, as the American focus groups (except for the hardcore, which is essential even liking), it seemed overly complicated. At first it was planned to release it after FF VI (when she brings the audience more) under the name Final Fantasy Extreme - but, alas, has not developed. Translated versions for PS one person also did not come out: dialogue and heartless, and the names of distorted. And although the Advance-name version of the hero and remains crippled (Bartz instead of the original Butz), cleaned up the other sins, and translators can safely praise. Moreover, it is impossible not to mention the fact that the new translations are found magnificent "Easter eggs". For example, the description of the skill Finisher (available second level of the added class Gladiator) is as follows: «Powerful strike that whenever hits an enemy, attacks its weakpoint for massive damage!» Giant Enemy Crab, hello!
