is it really "much" better, though?
For Popo, I’m sure it is. I knew going in how to abuse the growth systems, but purposely tried to not do it, to see how long it might be viable. My verdict was that it wasn’t for very long. All that really happened when I made my party into near super beings was that I was able to beat it. Otherwise, I didn’t find it more enjoyable, and just the fact that it’s essentially a requirement to break the game made me more upset with it. Story’s pretty uninteresting for how much work they put into it, too. I think Phantasy Star II pulled off a way better story, and around the same time, even.
