If you have it on Switch , it comes with X as well.
I mean you can play X-2 if you want, gameplay wise it is good , just the story and characters....lets just say everything that was great storyline wise in X was messed up in X-2.
But coming into X-2 after playing X, soured a lot of the experience lol
| Kyuu said: I hated how slow FF6 was on the PS1 (load times before and after battles), I thought it was overall a slight downgrade coming from FF4 The Complete Collection which was so smooth and beautiful. But the game kept growing on me, and I ended up playing the superior SNES (my favorite) and GBA versions. Did the long ass load times on PS1 not bother you at all? I'm curious why you shaved off a point from FF5 PS1 (which I don't recall having the same problem) and not FF6. |
It was a oversight on my part. Loading times was an issue of course but at least from what I remember - FFIV and V loading times were worse compare to FFVI and Chrono Trigger.
Looking back at my reviews I made years ago - I dont see loading times mentioned in my FF6 review so it was a oversight but yes it is an actual problem and should deduct 1 point.
But ya out of all the versions of the games I played, the PS1 versions (aside from the CG cutscenes and Bestiary) were the worst versions. The SNES versions were put on "Easy mode" in comparison and are perfect for beginners (until the Pixel remasters came out).
The GBA versions were the definitive version for the content but still had horrible audio and visual downgrade due to the limitations of the GBA.
PC mobile remakes (V and VI at least) had it all but the visual changes were odd lol - almost RPG Maker like visuals with the sprites touched up a bit too much.
(Ironically playing FFV pixel remaster on Switch and FFVI Mobile remake on PC right now lol)
