Final Fantasy Origins

Released well after the PS2, Final Fantasy Origins was the third and final collection of Final Fantasy games to be ported to the PS2. At that point, all Final Fantasy games except Final Fantasy III were available on the PS1. It would be the first time that Final Fantasy II would be available in the US. The games contained enhanced graphics as well as a couple of FMV cutscenes. In a move that was both hated and loved by the fans, an "easy mode" was included, which reduced the strength of enemies, increased your party's strength, and reduced the amount of experience needed to gain levels. They also contained the "quick save" feature of the other compilations, allowing players to save anywhere.

Final Fantasy Origins contains two games:
 * Final Fantasy I
 * Final Fantasy II

Please see their specific guides for walkthroughs and information.

Final Fantasy I

 * Graphics and audio have been updated and are on par with the SNES games, which are based on a previous Wonderswan Color remake.
 * A new FMV sequence has been included, replacing an in-game sequence.
 * Various music pieces have been replaced with new tracks.
 * Remodeled maps with controller shortcuts have been added.
 * You can now run in towns and dungeons.
 * Auto retargeting prevents characters from attacking nothing if their selected target is already dead.
 * Easy mode reduces prices, increases levelup stats, and reducing the amount of experience needed to gain levels. (Normal mode is still available.)
 * Save the game anywhere, not just on the world map.
 * Encyclopedias of items, enemies, and places, as well as records of audio and visual files. (Unlocked as you go through the game.)

Final Fantasy II

 * Like Final Fantasy I, an FMV sequence has been added, the graphics and audio are updated, your party can run, and your character will auto retarget.
 * Combat is more balanced: Your accuracy is much higher and status ailments are far less effective.
 * Unique music for each boss replaces the generic boss music.
 * Aside from the graphical update, various sprities have been redesigned.
 * The maximum number of items is now 63 (it was 32 in the original).
 * Icons denote items, equipment, and spells.
 * Encyclopedias of items, enemies, and places have been added. (Unlocked as you go through the game.)
