Added DiffLines:
* EarlyInstalmentWeirdness: Many fans will admit, it is very difficult to go back to the original game after playing the later iterations, especially when the developers refined and streamlined the game.
** There are little to no ways to restore RP outside of farming dungeons, thus you're managing your health not because of enemy damage, but because of the HP you will be spending trying to fight. In addition, the magic system in this game is non-existent due to the fact that you can't cast anything outside of your warp spells if you are out of RP.
** Character interactions are extremely limited compared to later games.
** You must destroy every monster generators in one go before the boss door unlocks, although it remains unlocked so you don't have to do it again if you did it before.
** You can only eat one thing that isn't medicine and you have to wait to eat something else.
