FINAL FANTASY 6 REMAKE!

Posts

Well that's one port I'm not going to bother with.

And wow, there's DRM? Seriously? You HAVE to have an internet connection to play it? That is such a dumb move.

I'm sure you all have at least two copies of it lying around somewhere, since you can get it on basically any platform that you want at this stage.


I still find it confusing that people buy new copies of games they already own for different platforms. I have never done this before, and I still don't see the point. To me it feels like buying 5% of a new game (however much new content there is) for the cost of a whole new game.

So, I guess we can forget about ever getting another good game from Square-Enix, eh? I mean, if this is what they thought a proper port/remake of one of the best games ever made is supposed to be...ugh. I..I'll be enjoying my games from the 90's now, thank you SE. :x

I'd really like to get rid of LockeZ. His play style is way too unpredictable. He's always like this too. If he ran a country, he'd just kill and imprison people at random until crime stopped.

Combat controls look interesting.

Nothing is actually wrong with that world map screenshot except that Figaro Desert is a boring section of the world map. You can't complain that they changed the graphics in some parts and then also complain that they didn't change the graphics in other parts, though. That's not how this works, unless you just like hating things for the sake of hating them.



Like exactly what part of that did they ruin

Mediocre graphics to match a mediocre game. Fair, next.

Are you just upset that it actually looks like a miniature version of Figaro Castle instead of some sort of Aztec pyramid

Are you upset that it's at a different resolution than Locke, even though that was also true in FF6, which used mode 7 for the world map and made everything on the screen unevenly pixelated

Are you upset that it tells you what to do next in case you quit playing for a month and come back

5% of FF6 is worth as much as a whole game.
why would you quit playing?

Once you install FF6, there is literally no imaginable reason to put your phone down until you beat the game.
As expected, the monster graphics and spells effects are really nice. I don't get why people have such a problem with the graphics that have been improved. I get the character sprites are awful-looking, and I agree with that.

People bitched about FFV's monster graphics and I just couldn't understand it, they were beautiful.

Yeah, but I'm not getting a new 5% of story or characterization or whatever, just some extra tacked on dungeons or bonus bosses or something. Plus, I can't get at the additional 5% or so without replaying a game which I've already played in its entirety.

The only context in which I could see myself buying a remake of a game I've already played before is if, the first time around, the game had crappy gameplay which put me off of the story, and the rerelease manages to make the gameplay non-crappy so that this time around I can enjoy it properly. But games with crappy gameplay usually do not become popular enough to get rereleased.

Those are the two best looking parts of the mobile games, FF6 included. Hell it's the only part of the aesthetic of Dimensions that I don't despise. Look at the sceenshot of the Behemoth and Ramuh posted by Kentona, I think those look great. It's the best looking style out of the mishmash used and it looks like an improvement on the originals.
I'm sad that the iOS games monster graphics are difficult to rip due to anti-aliasing, because I'd love to use some of the monster designs from V and VI in FFD.

Maybe one day someone will be able to pull the graphics from the app itself.
I hope the castle turns as you move around it horizontally, otherwise it looks wonky to me.

Why is the Figaro Castle icon 3D? Like what the hell? You can't just throw in random 3D-ness into your 2D port. It's either full 2D or full 3D.

....but yeah overall the only good part is the monster graphics.
