yeah certain stats go down as some will go up. But if you keep an eye on what is going up and down it is possible to have them all on max if your actions in battle warrant it.

I like it that your speed never goes down though. Dead handy when trying to become godlike in the fact that your evasion is gonna get so high that nothing can hit you.

As for ff1 I hated that titans hall bit and all the other forced battles. What about the final dungeon where you had to fight all those chaoses again and if you walked on the same spot you can fight them over and over again. I hated that lich with his flare spell.
