Movie - Final Fantasy: Terra

Congrats. That was more cringeworthy than SE's recent live action commercial for this game. YEAH I SAID IT

Of course a fan trailer is going to look "cheesy", you shouldn't go in expecting Iron man 3 quality, this is fairly impressive for a low budget trailer. No reason to insult their effort.

This alone should be proof of the insane fandom for this title, serving as more than enough incentive for 6 to be remade on a modern console, even if the game is so large in scope that it has to be broken up over several episodes. They went crazy mad on 7 and made upteen different versions and spinoffs and for some strange reason only remade kiddy versions of 6 on the PS1 and Nintendo DS, still mimicking the 16 bit graphics instead of translating these characters and their stories into the modern video game medium.

If money was the reason (and it always is), FF6 isn't even on the radar. 7 and 8 are the most successful titles by a fairly huge margin (FFX coming in at 3rd). 8 likely did so well because it was riding the coattails of 7, the single most successful title in the series, which is why you see so many spinoffs for it. I know people will argue back and forth about what their favorite title is, but there's no denying the legacy 7 had on the RPG genre, and why SE decided to capitalize off it.

I too would love a re-make of 6 as it is also my favorite. God knows we don't need another version of FF4.

I also fail to see what's so "kiddy" about the FF6 re-releases. They used uncensored content from the original JP release in the PS1 version (though, the GBA version re-censored some things). They're essentially the exact same game with slightly different localizations.

That was poor word choice on my part. I was only speaking in reference to another 16 bit chibi graphics port instead of a complete "from the ground up" remake for a modern machine. I was not referencing any diminishing of the content of the story.

It is gratifying to know that the game has a strong cult following after 20 years and even now the XIV:ARR devs are considering modifying the magitek mount to play Terra's theme after fan outcry here on the forums, so don't count a VI remake or future brand new VI spin offs out just yet. We can always hope.

Pretty impressive for a fan film!

Final Fantasy VI is my favorite game of all time. I would definitely watch this.

Locke looks less like a world class treasure hunter and more like he got thrown down some stairs in high school.
