    Not obscure, but I always felt FF3 never got enough credit. Largely because it never got a western release at the time I imagine. It was incredibly ambitious for a NES title, the nested world maps was absolutely bonkers at the time and it was really the first real form of the iconic FF job system.

        5 is great, and also pretty underrated in my opinion. I recently replayed the first six and I think I had greatly underrated 3/5 and overrated 4.
