YMMV / Final Fantasy Legend III

Go To

  • Awesome Music: Both the Talon's theme and the Palace theme (also used in Pureland). A lot of the themes are basically pure ear worms.
  • Contested Sequel: While the game's translation and leveling system is very much improved over previous installments, it lacks a lot of things that originally made the games feel unique and has been criticized for being "just another Final Fantasy game''. Having party composed of preset characters rather was a major turnoff for many, and the confusing Time Travel plot doesn't help either.
  • Funny Moments: Minor Video Game Cruelty Potential - you can intentionally jump under bridges and examine fires to get "Ow!" messages.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight: Faye's Japanese Artwork depicts her as looking somewhat like a nun. Her weapon in-game is a rune axe. Fire Emblem: Awakening features the Battle Cleric class, which has been memetically referred to as "NUNS WITH AXES".
  • Inferred Holocaust: The heroes frequently talk of liberating the people of The Floating Continent and Pureland. Then both areas are eventually destroyed and the obvious Fridge Logic is never brought up.
  • Narm Charm: Jorgandr and Xagor is strong against Damage!
  • Nightmare Fuel: Any of the Entity's Elite Mooks and Xagor.
  • That One Boss:
    • Chaos. He starts off with an unexpected attack - which is usually Quake. He also has the ability to turn your party members to stone - and at this point of the game, it's basically a One-Hit KO.
    • Agron. Two reasons - one, by the point in which you fight him, having only four characters is actually somewhat of a handicap to yourself, as you've gotten very used to having a fifth party member to eat hits and deal damage, regardless of how many Mystic Swords you have. Two, Agron also enjoys casting White on you, which hits the entire party and has very little ways to resist it meaning that you're in for a very rough time.
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Not a lot of people are happy with the original boss theme being replaced with a completely different song for the DS remake.
  • Woolseyism: While possibly not intentional, the word "The" is often omitted for space constraints. This refers to some characters refering to Talon as "Talon" rather than "The Talon" on occasion... which actually fits. Talon has the brain of Arthur's father in it.
