I recently played Phantasy Star on the Master System (the original from 1987) and I really loved the game in general, story was fun and the characters (as little as you see from them) were cool. But I have two issues with the game
Both points made me drop the game about 2/3th in. I don't have the time for that kind of gameplay, I am not 12 anymore.
So yes, those old game mechanics are problematic. And it's in so many old JRPGs, Star Ocean, Phantasy Star, the early Final Fantasy games. Really sad.
