I just finished FFXII. Were they planning to have a final dungeon and ran out of time or money? All the elements are there for Bahamut to be it, but nope. I have to say, the game feels a bit strange to me as an FF just by how... straightforward and not wierd the plot is. MikeJF fucked around with this message at 12:29 on Apr 12, 2018 |

Everybody who whines about the port of VI has never played it. The town graphics on the overworld are wonky, but that’s it. It’s the same drat game under the hood. Everything else is just fine. In fact, I think the battle graphics are BETTER. You drat babies. I have FFVI on my phone, whenever I want. I live in the future and it is great.

I've never felt like I needed FF6 on my phone because I'm not a goddamn nerd. Now here's why I think Tidus/Yuna is a good video game romance... 1/244

I appreciate the fast forward options in the phone releases of FFV and FFVI. I was able to pass a slow winter season at work by power building my parties in both games, it was pretty fun to do between work activities. I liked the cleaned up monster sprites in FFV, I had heard they found and rescanned the original drawings for it. The FFVI monster sprites I had heard were just the original sprites with the resolution turned up in that way that just makes them look fuzzier than the SNES version. I have no idea what they were thinking with the character battle and world sprites, those all look dreadful. There, that’s my anecdote about the phone ports.

But they were kind of unfitting and also the only good thing about that port.

Oh drat that is not great. I guess this is their way of getting around the game being a SNES port right? It's probably remade from the ground up in a new engine so they don't need Nintendo's permission for anything?

When 12's director stepped down, the new producer, Akitoshi Kawazu, had to cut everything that wasn't working and get the rest of the game into a shippable state. Pretty much all the major FF games since 12 have had to make significant cuts due to tumultuous development cycles.

Hell, CT on PS1 is (basically), a new executable that reads all the graphics and sound data from a SNES ROM. Pop the disc in your PC and load ROM.BIN in SNES9x and hey whaddya know, it's the SFC version of CT. Then the English version is patched into it at runtime via a horrible assembly hackjob, because TOSE suck.

Also in Finland, I got a used SNES with a bunch of games back in the day, and one of them was a US Link to the Past in a PAL box. It wasn't the only US game of the bunch so there was an adapter included for playing them, but at least the other games were in their original US boxes. Hell if I know what was up with Zelda there.

You straight up have to do it on purpose, really ACES CURE PLANES posted:You're guaranteed to act before him, but if you wait for too long, he'll attack you and you'll just counter attack. I had my battle speed cranked to the max for pre final dungeon grinding. I didn't realize this. I essentially waited for the limit bar to fill for Omnislash, got attacked, and countered. I was able to select Omnislash between getting hit and countering but the whole thing took less than 10 seconds.

FF sprites are like reverse flatworms. Both eyes start on the same side of the head, and then one migrates over as they age.
