I would say I wish I could have gotten into Phantasy Star more. It wasn't until later on that I started playing Phantasy Star 1 on Sega Master System and normally I love a challenge. I also loved the concept of the game. However, not exactly sure why but going through the mazes and hitting an enemy every 2 feet in front of me kind of got irritating even with loads of HP.
Use a walkthrough and/or look at maps on Gamefaqs or a similar site.
I really want to like the Elder Scrolls games. I love the lore and the look of the games, I love the races and the concepts in the series. But the interactivity with NPCs just feels very shallow and MMORPG-ish which coupled with the lack of mission directions makes them usually just feel like big empty confusing worlds.
