If you can get it on GBA instead, do so. It isn’t bad at all on PSX. The delay to open the menu is almost game-breaking, but otherwise it plays just fine. It’s the only way I’ve ever played V.

I’ve only played the GBA version, and I must say it has some nice graphics.

The graphics on the PSX release are the super famicon graphics as far as I am aware, and there is nothing "wrong" with those at all. You might be the type who is spoiled by PS2 generation graphics, but that’s a debate for another thread entirely.

You hate when you need a walkthrough, but you play Final Fantasy games? Sorry, but that made me laugh quite robustly 😉

V is a good one. I’ve ragged on it in the past, but a replay is definitely on the cards. Hear me, Agent? I said it. I mean it.

I never needed a walkthrough for any FFs. Except for FF X-2 (to get it at 100%) and for FF XII (to know how the hell I can get that stupid Zodiak Spear).

Other than that, I never needed a Walkthrough for any FF game.

I was of course referring to getting every secret, sidequest, etc. Yeah, that is a seperate goal than just finishing the story, so yes, you got me.

I found a lot of secrets by myself too. Without any guides. Most secrets in FFs are possible to find without the use of walkthrough except for the 2 games I mentioned.

There is one particular part in FFV that’s notorious for giving the player absolutely no clue as to what to do next. Apart from that, a walkthrough probably won’t be needed.

And I would definitely go for the GBA version or fan-translated SNES version over the PSX version. Apart from having horribly load times, it also has a very mediocre translation.
