I loved it's philosophy of "The story and backstory will be provided by in-game comments made by characters and bits of information spread around that you have to actually look for." No spoon-feeding, no plethora of heavy-handed cutscenes that take you out of the action constantly (Army of Two, I'm looking at you!), no reams of plot exposition thrown at you.I've found Final Fantasy 1 to be an excellent game to turn into a two-tier (Epic to Paragon) campaign. Not story-driven like other FF games, so you don't need to account for certain character-based plot elements ([spoiler]like Kain betraying you every 10 seconds[/spoiler]), it's easy to adapt to any kind of D&D party. It's also giving me a chance to create some encounters in the Floating Fortress (depicted as a space station in the original version) that use my Star War Galaxy Tiles, and feature a de-leveled Tiamat (though I do need to double-check on the FF1 Tiamat stats to see if there's any special schtick that needs to be represented).I'm in the process of turning the whole world map into a giant hex map (thank you Hexographer, you rock).</blockquote>
