This game is generally pretty fun and for the most part it's what you'd expect but the last few sections with the space station and the time traveling storyline shoot it up to legendary status.
I kinda love how despite being so early in the genre and the medium's life this game manages to convey a specific themeing of people coming together to fight against a higher power, which feels appropriate for a game where you control four characters at once - as the ending sequence says "the Four became One".
But it's not just the Four, it's everyone.
A lot of this game's story revolves around the player characters gaining favor with the people of the world and said people coming together to help them in return.
The game begins with the King of Corneria ordering the building of a bridge that the Light Warriors can use to continue on their journey, I don't think it's a coincidence that this monument to the cause built by the people the Light Warriors had just saved marks the game's opening text crawl and title sequence, as it's sort of emblematic of what the whole game is about.
Even at the end, when everyone has forgotten the deeds of the heroes, the legend lives on in the tales people pass among each other even when unsure of where it originated from, the propagation and survival of this story relies entirely on a community that's willing to share among themselves.
I dunno, it's kinda fun that the story here, despite being quite primitive and limited by the technology, still manages to have some cohesion and connective tissue - or at least as much of that as you're willing to get out of it I guess.
