Well, if DQ 12 is the FF 6 of the franchise it means we are getting the best RPG of the generation so I'm all for it!!

Off topic, how is FF VI on Switch and it compares to other releases? I'm thinking of replaying older FFs after XVI, I have a playtrough of XIII I want to finish, and also want to replay VI and IX. I have IX on Switch, bought some years ago and played for like 5 hours before stopping to play another thing (I think it was Animal Crossing launch)

FFVI on Switch is great - the PS4 version is pretty much the same, only difference is the PS4 ver has trophies while the Switch version has the ability to play it portable.

The Pixel Remaster version (specifically on Switch and PS4) is the best version, even better than the PC version mainly because it includes additional QoL features such as "No encounters" option and 2x/4x EXP and Gil bonuses (so you dont have to grind as much).

Additional QoL features include a map that shows where treasure chests are so you dont have to mindlessly explore around (this only works if you use full screen map, not the mini map) and Auto-battle (a first time feature for FF1-6).

Other than that, different visual design, remixed music and new animations.

The only thing that Pixel remasters lack that previous versions had were the extra bonus dungeon and extra summons which were introduced in FFVI Advance and re-used in FFVI Mobile remake.

Its not a deal breaker but loses points imo for the lack of the extra content (which I had a blast doing when I played the GBA version - currently playing the PC version of the mobile remake right now lol).

Thanks for the detailed response 

I don't care for trophies. QoL improvement are welcomed, I don't want to expend time with grinding
