This. Very much this. PS1 is so much better than FF1. And IV is better than every FF period.

That's a decade and a bit, and during that time there were as many if not more of the style commonly associated with JRPGs. And remember FFIV came out in 1991, that's one of the hallmarks of the JRPG format.

I can't tell if you're pretending to be dumb to get responses or honestly never heard of it, but you just described Phantasy Star to a tee. It's a much better game than either DQ1 or FF1 as well.

In the first couple of hours you're flying space ships to other planets. I think it will suit you well.

I shamefully passed over PSIV when it came out and only played it for the first time a couple of years ago. I think it's probably the best rpg of the 16 bit era, everything about it is just about perfect.

Recently looking for something else to play I've started on the first game and have been really loving it. Still quite early, I just revived Odin and am looking for what to do next but it's been really impressing me so far. A much better game than either FF1 or DQ1 in my opinion.

It is interesting in the fact that they put strong enemies like owl bears and fishmen just a stones throw away from town in the beginning of the game. There is no way a level 1 Alis could possibly fight them, but whatever.
