I'll still try it out. It's my favorite game ever.

yeah I talked about this a few weeks ago in another thread. I'd obviously prefer a sprite-based port. But I'm still glad that FF VI exists in some form or another on Steam. I like knowing that it's there if I want to play it.

FYI...The GBA version of FFVI is releasing in Japan for the Wii U next week. That version has beautiful sprites, extra content, but somewhat shabby music, but it still probably beats the iOS port. I have my fingers crossed it will also receive a North American release.

Y'all can have it. I think FFIV is a better game. Certainly has a less nonsensical plot.

It... it does?

I didn't say it wasn't nonsensical. Just less nonsensical. I never encountered an FF game ever that didn't give me some kind of headache trying to make sense of the crazy. 'Cept maybe the first.

That's only because the NES version had such little text you didn't realize it had a plot on par with VIII's for crazy.

VI's plot was pretty straightforward. The Empire wants to control the source of all magic. You guys try to stop them. You fail. Now you try to get the band back together to defeat Kefka.

I think VI has one of the better plots in the series, though the whole "magicite" elements doesn't make a hell of a lot of sense.

If you ask me VI was the last FF game that was good.

Yes, I know about and have played VII.
