Final Fantasy V is my favorite game of this FF era. It’s less epic than IV or VI, the story is simpler, but I love the gameplay a lot. Its plot simplicity gives it a special charm. Also it has an evil tree named EXDEATH. Seriously, top tier FF.
I love the party, as well: it’s a very small party but their personalities are well-defined and I like how they all relate to each other. It’s a relaxing time.
I was left unsatisfied by what little we have of their post-canon life. I love their tragic backstory and how they begin to rebuild their relationship after reuniting. So I’d love to see more of that! I adore Faris and her cool, brash attitude mixed with warmth. And otoh I like how impulsive Lenna is.
