Playing a new Final Fantasy game often feels like slipping into a cherished pair of old sneakers for many gamers. The comfort comes from selecting traditional party configurations or strategizing combat techniques. For example, on Reddit, a fan shared their enduring attachment to classic teams such as Fighter, Red Mage, Black Mage, and White Mage, or a quartet consisting of two Black Mages and two White Mages. There’s a charming nostalgia in assembling a party reminiscent of the series’ origins, almost evoking the simplicity of early gaming days. Players like GeorgBG93 emphasize the significance of optimizing their team for adaptability, even going so far as to say, “I always pick a fighter, two mages, and either a monk or a thief.” Selecting a traditional blend allows players to feel they’re not just replaying a game, but revisiting cherished memories with friends who are no longer around.
