Clunky system with bad bugs – FINAL FANTASY II (Old Ver.) Review

I should go ahead and report the fact that my game froze at a black screen after a battle at the tropical island where I took the enemy's mace. Plz fix. Resumes are very inconsistent, while they used to be set after or before every battle, this game seems to choose really random quick save points. I'll be at the dreadnought and the resume will take me back to the ice caverns. The idea of actions being taken to increase a specific stat is just stupid. It can force you to partake in very repetitive and tedious actions in every battle and makes characters lose their individuality when it comes to skills. I like the darker story and music, but the gameplay just fell flat on it's face. This is probably one of the weakest titles in the series next to the XIII trilogy.
