Why is it so hard to find a good way to play FF6.
>Roms are too choppy
>PS version has lag
>GBA version has bad music

I JUST WANT TO PLAY IT DAMN IT

Play the SNES version.

How is that hard?

You must have one god-awful PC if it can't handle a SNES emulator.

pretty sure theres a prehacked gba rom floating around. Also in the time it took to make the post you could have patched the gba rom.

There's a sound patch for the gba version. That's the best version imo. Has a monster codex, faster movement, a bunch of extras and a pretty good translation.

If your PC can run a web browser capable of posting on 4chan you can run an inaccurate SNES emulator smoothly. Fix your settings and stop letting Windows run a whole bunch of shit in the background.

Is it me or does the game start a bit slow? I just got to the first town after the castle burrowed and we went through the cave and not much has happened yet gameplay-wise. Do the cutscenes stop soon?

PSP version is pretty good, but the look is pretty different from the SNES version.

It's really unnoticeable. The translation is more accurate to the Japanese version than the other versions, and there's maybe like one esper sprite that is slightly censored? I never used esper summons anyways.

But if you want the original experience I suppose the only way is to play the Japanese super famicom version with translation patch. Or learn Japanese.

You're not going to believe this, but there's even a little ROM-patching magic to revert this back to the original, if I remember correctly.

Final Fantasy really does get all the ROM hacking RPG love. :(

a solid 15+ minutes of action right at the start
>ff8
a couple minutes of talking then you can wander around or go right to the fire cavern

can't remember with 9, probably worse than those two though

>> No.2776589

>>2776563
Man, not even close. 9 and 10 are so much worse in the endless cutscene where's muh gameplay at department. And that's only venturing slightly outside retro territory, they've done it so much harder.

>> No.2776596

VII isn't too bad, but you're either forgetting or blatantly ignoring the big, huge, long, unnecessarily melodramatic cutscene at the very beginning of VIII. Just because they tried to pass it off as the demo doesn't mean it isn't "Yet Another Fucking FMV".

If he uses bsnes/higan/whatever it is called now, then he'd actually need a high end CPU.

If you want a Final Fantasy game with actual gameplay instead of cutscenes and DRAMA, then you should be playing FF V instead of FF VI.

Why would someone do that though unless they have a high end PC? Also he's talking about emulating the GBA one as well which has spottier emulation than SNES.
