    I hear people say all the time that it is perfect. It definitely has imperfections.

    However while I will insist on it being imperfect it has still been my number one favorite game for at least two decades.

    It is easily the closest to perfect I think you could possibly ask for with the hardware limitations and the fact that teams don't have magical infinite time or budgets. Anyone with even a slight interest in RPGs should play it.

    Plus it gave us the musical career of Yasunori Mitsuda

    The SNES library of RPGs will always be peak gaming. Chrono Trigger & Earthbound fight for the top spot for me, #3 depends on the day.
