I love FF6, but it has its issues.

All character development and interaction is gone in the WoR. You realize you have to gather your party members again and you recall that Sabin, Cyan and Gau have a relationship? Neat. Maybe if you take Sabin and Gau to recruit Cyan you'll get some extra dialogue. You don't. It's the same thing for finding Locke with Terra in your party. There's just no real satisfaction in regaining your party members since all interaction was written for any and every character.

>But muh technical limitation

Please. Loop through the party array to see if character X is present and just spit the line out.

Also, magic is just OP. Magic should have had limitations based on class the way it is in BNW. i.e: Locke can only learn some minor healing and support magic with some fire spells up to Fira. Make Relm be the goto character for healing, support and buffs. Make Terra have access to every offensive spell, etc.

[Anonymous No.4443770]

I played it right after FF2/SNES and it felt like a downgrade to me. The only improvements were seeing your battle meter fill up so you could attack, and it gave descriptions of the spells.

It's a great game but,

> First few hours of the game you are swapping characters and storylines and it was interesting at first but gets annoying not having everybody in one group of 4-5 characters

> A lot of cutscenes. Most RPG's on the SNES just have you talking to everybody in town and eventually you get a small ten second cutscene that tells you what to do next. I didn't like having a five minute cutscene, and then I regain control and start moving just to have another cutscene trigger or a bossfight trigger that's super easy and scripted.

> I actually liked everything with Kefka and the Emperor but the octopus could have been done a little better. I really wanted him to be the final boss or be involved more than just the few boss fights you have with him, I think it was 3 fights?

> A lot of the "minigames" sequences felt a little time consuming and boring.

What I would have liked:

> Explore Narshe a lot more. Go into the mines and work with the Moogles and one of them joins you early on in the game.
> You can actually travel to the Esper world and learn more about the story

The magic seemed really poorly done compared to FF2. I didn't really use any status ailments in FF3 and the magic attacks did a little bit more than regular attacks but I would keep running out of Mana so I just used normal attacks in every battle except for bosses. In FF2 I was constantly casting Haste and Blink on my party just to survive some tougher enemies. In FF3 I kept forgetting what the Espers special spells were so I never used them and I never had the main girl (I called her :ZOOP:) transform because she did the same damage as her regular attacks so what's the point?

I think I missed a lot of this game and how the mechanics work because what people are posting is that magic is OP.

The only JRPGs that I can really get into are ones that are different from the typical turn-based linear JRPG formula. Like Romancing Saga, Sweet Home, or strategy-RPGs or action-RPGs.

There are a few major exceptions to this though, like half of which are the old school 2D Final Fantasy games. They really were operating on another level from most other JRPGs at the time, with only a few being able to equal them.

This board gets more and more fucking embarrassing every single day. You shitheads probably haven't played more than a handful of JRPGs yourselves.

[Anonymous No.4447812]

FF6 is one of those games like Metroid where its hardcore fans fell in love with its failings and imperfections and embraced "It's not a bug, it's a feature" mentality. I mean, there's just so many things broken in the game that you wonder if they even fucking cared to begin with. Sure, the game still functions more or less like any other JRPG, but the polish is nonexistent, any remote level of scrutiny reveals this.

It's not just that though, it's the care they put into the characters. Like sure, it's fun that they put in all these weirdos with unique skills. But like with every other FF from 1-8 apart from 2 and 4, they made certain that none of this remotely matters because all your members converge at the same point sooner or later. Especially since every character only gets HP on level up naturally, so you have a fair amount of difference to begin with because of starting stats, but in the end Strago can hit just as hard as Sabin if you want. Who gives a shit?

"Let's make it so Terra and Celes are the only people blessed with this unique ability to cast white/black magic. Then, like a third of the way through the game, we'll nullify that point entirely by making every character capable of learning every spell." After that, you're left with a number of characters whose remaining idiosyncrasies are the only differences left. And that means you might as well just roll out Terra/Celes/Locke/Gau every time, because there's no situational benefits, only raw power.

>It's not a bug, it's a feature
Tell that to the over hundred individual bugfix patches.

[Anonymous No.4447848]

Then there's the story, which has exactly one interesting major plot point—the struggle of the half-Esper Terra in coming to terms with what she is—that it tries its hardest to bury beneath a cavalcade of retarded trope characters like Sabin, Cyan, and Setzer, further burying the only other interesting thread (Shadow/Relm) through the semi-obscure method of resting at inns, provided you knew what you had to do to make sure Shadow didn't die on the Floating Continent.

The romance is awful, though I concede that the Terra/Locke/Celes love triangle is the best episode of Three's Company that never happened. The mere thought of the opera segment makes me think long and hard about replaying.

I say all this not to say that I don't like FF6 for plenty of other little reasons, but "single greatest?" Not even a little.

Nah, it's less about being liked by more people than other games and more about having been played by most people than other JRPGs (particularly of that era), so it had more of a chance to make an impact.
Remember, this industry is almost pure marketing and hype.

Well, has been more than 20 years since 6. If the hype around it is bigger than with other jrpgs, it might mean something

People tend to value A LOT the first JRPG they played.

I live in Europe where FFVI wasn't originally released and VII was the first of the main series to even get localized. And you know what? You barely hear about VI and it's full of VII praise and nostalgia.

this nigga is trolling and rolling.
>blitz is useless
who the fuck spams espers when several characters have mp free special abilities? also its easy to set up strong physical attacks with genji glove.

Nah, he's just stretching a bit. Blitz is pretty good, though I don't remember if it scaled well up until the endgame compared to magic or regular attacks

I rarely used magic except for healing. Using Blitz to pummel one enemy or use fire on every enemy or use wind slice on every enemy was always the best move. Using the TOOLS command with Chainsaw/Drill or Crossbow was also totally over powered and better than magic.

I saved him and found him in the cave but never got him into my party. Same with the Yeti guy, I killed him then got Mog afterwards.

>Espers
This bugged me. I thought only the two girls would be magic users and make the game very interesting but it took a shitty turn and now even Gau can use magic despite being some inbred abandoned child?

The best JRPG is Legend of Zelda.

>muh “first jrpg people played” argument
This list compiled from Japanese gamers ranks FFVII far higher than FFVI (#6 to #50). By your argument this means FFVII is that popular in Japan because it’s the first Japanese RPG the Japanese themselves played.

If the sales of 7 were notably higher than 6 than that would be a hint at the “first rpg” argument ringing true.

Question;
If you want the Woolsey uncensored patch, I see there are several options;
>patch
>patch plus bug fixes
>patch plus bug fixes plus add-ons
>patch plus bug fixes plus add-ons plus undated opera
Is it best to go with the option that as the most stuff in it, i.e. the last one?

The majority of jrpg players won't hoard gamefaqs to spot the bugs. I'm always surprised to learn all the ways there exist to break a game.

>>4449670
It may've been the first for a new generation as >>4449693 suggests due to its huge number of sales

>>4449389
I last played FFVI 8 years ago but I do remember at least Edgar's tools becoming underwhelming by the end (while at the beginning they were OP)
