They're calling this harder than FF1, FF2, and FF4?

What FF4 considered very hard?

Yeah, the DS version in particular... though this was alleviated if you used Slow on every single boss

When they brought FF4 to the west they made it way easier than the Japanese version, that's why everyone on here is saying that it is so easy.  The Japanese version is more like the DS game, i think the DS one might actually be a little harder than that even though.

I think the GBA remake was supposed to restore it to its original Japanese difficulty, and the DS remake made it even a little harder than that (but tried to make up for it with all the crazy new skills).

I thought the crazy new skils were in the original japanese version and the only new addition player wise was that weird minigame character.  Can't say though, haven't played the japanese FF4.
