" Tokita: it's true, only used about 25% of the original scenario due to cart space limitations. But it was a good thing because we refined that 25% and put a lot of thought into it and let the players imagine a lot."
I agree with this a lot, I played FF4 very late (post 2000), and greatly enjoyed it. Short, sweet, fun. Stupendous music, lots of cool characters, interesting encounters, and didn't overstay its welcome.
Mildly curious about the remake, thought FF3 was shit (and I finished it, so I'm the big retard here)
