Early on yeah she’s really good. Later... kinda middling but still solid because she gets actual chaining abilities. I think we all get a free lightning because it’s from the Rookie rewards (so it should be a quest there). I hope that’s the case because I’d like to go ahead and lock in her STMR (176 atk non-elemental sword).

I do find it amusing that Lara is a Kelsus-level unit: Free unit that is extremely crappy(and doesn't even have a 7* form in JP haha). Except that Kelsus had a decent TMR, while Lara has one that is worse than most 3* units.

Have we seen her stats yet or are you fortune telling?

Yeah, that's blood. It'll get better before the show.
So, uh, got a Roy off my daily, but I've already got a fully enhanced Ramza. From glancing over his skills it looks like he requires a lot more setup and turns to get up to speed, but he's got a pretty amazing LB. Is he really worth investing in at this point when I've already got Ramza?

I'd keep him at 5* and feed him spare LB pots, his LB is 24% more of a buff than Ramza and his HP and MP regen should be greater due to higher base stats. Until his LB gets up I'd keep using Ramza, Roy's stats aren't that much higher. The break isn't great since if you can break something you'll break it with somebody else before Roy gets around to it in my experience.

Yeah, Roy is not good for the break but if you have someone that can swing the break while you get setup, it's awesome. Orlandeau or WoL are great examples as they can break ATK for a few turns while Roy gets going.
Also remember if you have Grim Lord Sakura you can so the back strategy where you sacrifice and reraise him on the same turn to skip levels quickly.

Is that so freggin much?! They got 2 Collabs already Gumi, 2.
The work is already done for you ya drat lazy fucks. Instead of giving us bogus and lameass crap no one asked for or wanted, like valentine's day crap, give us poo poo people want.

A Chrono Trigger Collab would be nice too. Too bad they'll gently caress it up and have lame poo poo like Robo suck or something and not be the Star Terry Tekkaman robot that he is.

I'd go for a GTA collab. V can be Michael, Franklin, and Trevor or III can be No Name Guy, Vercetti, and Carl (fat). Since they have that guy with the car crash limit break that opens up a Grand Turismo collab. For GT3 I'd go Nissan Skyline, Ford GT40, Mitsubishi Lancer Evo, and Suzuki Escudo.

Everybody hating on the IOS port of 6 has never played it.

The weird 3D field sprites of towns are bad but the rest of the game is totally completely 100% fine. It’s no worse than the port of 5, which also has dumb graphics but is unchanged under the hood.

Play it. It’s fine, I swear to god.

Basic Sora is 3*. Valor and Wisdom forms are 4*s. His Final Form is 5*.

Donald will be a healer with all the best healer spells and triple cast, but he never uses them no matter how many times you tell him to.

The updated graphics are hideous but the port of FFV is fine too. It's really really ugly and I'd happily rebuy a version that looks like the original, but both games are so good they can survive SE massively loving up the graphics.

Why would I play a version of something that just looks worse and is otherwise "fine", when I still own SNES/SFAM/GBA copies of the originals and also have those on my hard drive?

I could also watch 2001 on VHS instead of Bluray, and it would be "fine" and still be a good movie, but what's the point? Especially if I already own the Bluray and don't own the VHS?

People criticizing games is fine.

Sure is!

Wait though, the Blu-ray is the iOS version in this analogy I think?

Some people don't have their original games anymore because they were the oldest and their siblings claimed all the family consoles when they moved out, and we all know about :filez: but, you know? If I hadn't been able to pick up a SNES Classic for the price of two or three 10+1 pulls, I'd be playing FF6 on my phone when I got the hankering. I'm trying to go legit wherever possible, Hakchi2 aside, you know? Being able to appreciate what you do have is cool and good.

Anyway, my comment was mocking the disproportional vitriol for a video game port in general, not necessarily pointed at anyone here.

EDIT: Stuff like this:

The character sprites in FF6 looks like total loving trash which is a shame because the people who did the monster sprites and basically everything else did their parts right and looks great. I don't know why they're so attached to the FF Dimensions character art style because it is the laziest poo poo I've ever seen, loving RPG Maker looks better than it. The RS2 remake take on redoing environments and enemies while leaving the character sprites as their original SNES form looks leagues better than FF6 mobile/steam.
