Yea I mean, when people say this game is held together by duct tape, they aren't wrong. It's pretty damn broken and unbalanced and also very simple, which is why I could see if being very hard to come back to for many.

However, this is where one of my favorite series got started! And it's still fun, even with it's problems! It's really cool to see how far this series has come, and a lot of this games flaws add to its charm. While definitely not a very rich gameplay experience, it's a very fun time that shouldn't be overlooked because future games outshined it.
