I mean it. They're only releasing 1, 2, and 3 at first, and I want to get this replayed in preparation for Endwalker. Time to experience the original The Burn!

I'd like to finish IV and VI for a change.. i didn't get too far in neither. I tried playing the FFIV 3D remake on the phone but it runs like crap... should be playing a different version and the steam one should be fine.

yeah, i tried the 3d version twice and couldn't finish. but i played the snes one before. it's got an amazing story! and endwalker is themed from it. the paladin is cecil. the lunar whale mount. going to the moon
btw, the last boss of cutter's cry is the antlion from ff4. and the doll boss at the end of antitower is also from ff4 -

I played through IV once upon a time. I wasn't overly invested - it just wasn't my thing - although I am aware that it's many people's favorite. Personally, the one I'd like to see get a major, jaw-dropping remake is FFVI. For one thing, FFVI was the first video game I ever played where you lost. Yes, you defeat Kefka, but you've really been defeated at that point - you're stopping him from annihilating all life, but he's killed most of the world's population, enslaved/exterminated the last of the Espers, and forever altered the map... and there's nothing you can do to right that ship. In many ways, FFVI is the darkest game in the series... and, IMO, it also has the best cast, most emotional plot, and most impressive setting (love the true, pure steampunk; Narshe is amazing).
*Edit* Wait, the pixel remaster... is this the one you can only buy as a $72 bundle on Steam? Geez... that's a little ridiculous for what amounts to a port. I'd happily buy just VI, but I'm not ponying up the better part of a hundy for a bunch of games I'd never play. -

Somewhat cautions about these remakes.
No clarity if definite content is included in them.
And for some reason they didn't just port the psp versons of 1,2 and 4 to pc as well as remaking 3,5 and 6 with the same art direction. -

All I ask for square-enix is a remake of Final Fantasy VIII... don't see it ever happening though, oh how great it'd be to see those characters, atmosphere and story in HD like the 7 remake.

They already did 1 and 2 ten years ago for the PSP, and 5 and 6 don't need it...

I'm just curious which version of FF4 it will actually be since there have been a bunch of different region specific releases, re-releases, translations, etc. over the years (not to mention a pseudo-sequel/expansion that was included in some of them). It's at the point where there isn't even what most people would consider a definitive version of the game and if you asked 10 people "What's the best way to play FF4?" you'd get 5 different answers. I have hopes that the pixel remaster version will be that definitive version.. but I highly doubt it.

FFVIII was the biggest single letdown I have ever had in a video game, just surpassing Chrono Cross. Wooden characters (including the single worst individual in a FF game: Rinoa), a difficult-to-follow, disjointed plot rife with long flashbacks and sudden, inexplicable tonal shifts, the outright, unambiguously bad junction system that ruined magic, and an antagonist that - while she possesses people - doesn't actually show herself until the very end of the game, together make for what is easily the worst main-series Final Fantasy game (and this is including complete garbage like XII and X [and X-2, if it counts]). This anthology has given me some of my highest highs as a gamer... but it has also offered distinct, brutal lows, and FFVIII will always hold that nadir in my heart.
To be honest, I'm not convinced that they can ever create a satisfactory stand-alone Final Fantasy again. XIII wasn't a good game, and neither was XV. The FFVII remake has been really engaging (although it has me worried - I don't ship Aerith/Zack, and am enormously concerned that the reintroduction of Zack will make for a third wheel) so far, but it's built on a pretty solid nostalgic foundation, and would have been difficult to miss with. I dunno... I don't have high expectations for the eventual FFXVI, although at least it appears to be set in a semi-traditional fantasy world, so that's a minor plus. -

I just hope that they're released on consoles in due time. I'd like to play the older Final Fantasy games again but not on my PC. I'd like to do it on my Switch or PS5 instead.

I'm confused to why this is posted in a FF14 forum though.

The removal of the added content, stripping it down to what I could play on my snes if I wanted, makes me sad.

07-30-2021, 08:34 AMcheolsudo you mean the original post? because endwalker is ff4 themed and i'm replaying ff4 in preparation for endwalker. if you mean the follow up replies about other ff's, that's just a tangent off of ff4Quote:
