Absolutely freaking sad....

SE is sad. I won't be surprised if they went into the same situation that Capcom is currently in. (Financially speaking)

I am so sad at this news.

Not because FFVI is being remade for iOS, but because they are dumbing it down and also giving it that god awful look that FFV iOS had.


S-E is dead to me right now for doing this. They are so out of touch in terms of what their fans actually want.

 

Edit - Read Outlawauron's post about the difficulty being in regards to the original JP version. Still, I hate the FFV iOS look.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!

Release all this on the Vita, I have never finished 6 and never played 7.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

...is there a patch that also returns the old translation? And is there the same kind of patch for FF VI?

If there is, it'd be awesome... damn, I was disappointed when I heard it from my TV (GBA flashcart/Gameboy player for Gamecube). It was sheer horror.

^saved, thank you. I can't believe EVERYTHING was fixed.
Given the sites' policy toward roms and so on, I'd edit the post though :/

I am not against SE making enhancements and putting their classics on iOS but not making these ports available on handhelds and consoles is just a slap in the face.

The original English release was dumbed down for English audiences. They're talking about the much more difficult Japanese version.

Edit: Oh people in this thread dumb.

You're confusing Final Fantasy 6 with Final Fantasy 4.  The only two Final Fantasy games that have had major changes for English audiences was FInal Fantasy 4 and Final Fantasy 7. 

The first Mako reactor in Final Fantasy 7 was harder and there wasn't a boss in the Japanese version, just regular enemies that appear later in the game.  In the US version, a boss was added.  That's it when it comes to Japan's version being more difficult.  Everything else is additions that the US version had that the Japanese version didn't, not until the international version came out.  Example.  Ruby and Emerald weapon among other changes.

In Final Fantasy 4, instead of having items that restored each ailment separately, heal items were cure alls.  Special character skills like dark sword, remember, prayer, and charge were removed, as well as a few other minor changes like the removal of a summon or two, and some increased HP on some enemies and bosses. 

As much as was changed in both of those games, didn't really make much of a difference, because Final Fantasy 4's difficulty on the slightly easier SNES version is negligable compared to the same Super Famicom version.  The HP amounts really don't make a difference when one more attack, if that, will kill the enemy.

There's no roms on that site.  It's just a site with hacks and translations.

You never know with mods, really. I know there are no roms, but since it pertains to roms and such, I dunno.



Okay.  Well I edited it.

*edit*

I actually edited it again to make it better.  Funnier maybe?
