#42Fans should also check out the Brave New World mod for the game (excellent changes to combat and gameplay, plus tons of minor tweaks and improvements) and the T edition (massive Japanese expansion that was recently released in English).

#44I've played a bunch of them, but never actually got to try FFVI... From what I hear it's quite a few people's favourite though, so I'm probably missing out. This looks like a nice ROM.

#45Can someone explain the issue here? I loved FF VI (US III), but I haven't heard of it being censored. Edit: https://finalfantasy.fandom.com/wiki/Censorship#Final_Fantas... Looks like the level of censorship is way below my threshold of what is "news", but a nice clean-up job nonetheless.

#46I don't really have much to say here besides "play FFVI", so I'll just sing it's praises: it's one of the most underrated JRPGs ever made, even though it's still pretty well-known. Despite being overshadowed by it's successor, FFVI has always sat in my heart as having one of the most fascinating stories, best music and greatest characters of any SNES RPG, or SNES game in general. I hold it in higher regards than I do…

#47I'm generally a Woolsey apologist, but the GBA localization of FF VI is pretty much definitive. Censorship aside, there are a lot of little details that were mistranslated or omitted in the SNES version, and the plot is less clear than it could be as a result. The GBA localization fixes a lot of errors and IMO retains a lot of flavor, even keeping or adapting some of Woolsey's jokes ("son of a submariner" -> "son of…
Sounds like something a spoony bard would say.

I don't know if this is a generational thing (I'm nearing my mid-30s) or what, but to hear FFVI described as "underrated" or just "pretty well-known" is so weird to me. In my circles it's always been considered the best Final Fantasy and the best 16-bit JPRG (or maybe second-best behind Chrono Trigger), maybe the best JPRG ever. Even though it's definitely exceptional, if I'm being honest I've always thought of it as…

but how many people are in this romhacking variant community?
I wanted to enjoy FF6 again, and am enticed by a better even more coherent story and stuff, but I know I dont have the patience for that turn based format anymore. when i played it originally - on emulator 20 years ago - I still held the fast forward key most of the time, but now I can only do action RPG. The Mana series and Tales series is fine though.

#50Surprised to see FFVI mentioned here in HN. That said, I HIGHLY recommend playing thru the recently released FFVI-T edition that's recently become available thanks to an incredible translation effort by Tomato. It corrects a number of mistranslations and adds a TON of content and scales up the difficulty. I thoroughly enjoyed the replay. The original release: http://tomato.fobby.net/ff6-t-edition/ Which now directs i…
Hadn't heard of this, but given how well done his translation of Mother 3 was it's got to be great
The Mother 3 English translation is unbelievably good, it kinda makes Mother 2's localization look like a hack job by comparison. Now I've almost got a reason to go back and give FFVI another pass...
