    A classic masterpiece comes to Steam, but this release isn't satisfactory at all: the visual style is too old, but the gameplay stays strong.

    The fact that this PC version is a massive downgrade from the original, or any previous version to be honest, speaks volumes. As a fan of RPG’s I whole heartedly recommend FFV, just make sure you play any other version than this embarrassing PC port.
