An important innovation in Phantasy Star that would later become common in console role-playing games was the use of pre-defined player characters with their own backstories, in contrast to computer role-playing games such as the Wizardry and Gold Box games where the player's avatars ( such as knights, clerics, or thieves ) were simply blank slates.
Boys ' Life in 1988 predicted that Phantasy Star as well as The Legend of Zelda games may represent the future of home video games, combining the qualities of both arcade and computer games.
Critics and fans alike have also noted that Alis is one of the first female heroines in video games, alongside Samus Aran of Metroid and Chun Li of Street Fighter, who didn't journey for love or treasure but for personal vengeance.
She is widely seen now as a great example of a well crafted lead female character.
