Tell me your favorite character and esper

Terra, Celes and Cyan are my favs

>>715145517 (OP)
I don't know their names because I input custom names like the game intended.

>>715149235
the game tells you their names in the ending

>>715145517 (OP)
Sabin and Edgar is objectively the best charaters in the game for how busted they are for mob fights and how early/often you need to use them.
I wish Seltzer was better because his story is one of the better ones but i'm not a fan of randomness in rpgs. Cyan is another one I wish was better but his special attacks are just bad and boring to wait for.

I liked Locke.

I always liked Mog in battle. A Genomancer/Dragon who can hit max defense and be rendered unkillable if you pair him with the paladin shield and a safety bit.

Green hair is always the best.

>>715145517 (OP)
Fav characters: Setzer, Locke, and Strago.
Fav Espers: I would say Gilgamesh and Cactaur but if we're talking just the original then Zona Seeker, Ragnorak and Crusader. God this game had so many cool summons that I wish showed up in later games, even if they were just used as bosses or something.

>>715149235
Based. That’s the real old-school experience-naming Terra something like “Mommy” and forgetting who’s who by the time the World of Ruin hits. Though I still remember calling Edgar “Chainsaw” because that’s all I ever used him for.

General Celes

>>715151107
PACK A MOTHAFUCKIN CHAINSHAW

>completely breaks enemy AI

>>715152137
Gau is the great filter.
Great base stats, and some of the Rages are absolutely busted. He's a fucking powerhouse.

>>715145517 (OP)
Mr. Thou. Terra is my favorite esper.

>>715154159
But I couldn't also go without mentioning Gogo.

>>715145517 (OP)

Leotard Fantasy VI

>>715145517 (OP)
Favorite character is probably Kefka overall, but if you mean among my party members I'd say either Cyan or Sabin. Cyan for his character arc and Sabin for his personality and banter.

Favorite esper is a tough one, as I haven't played in a long time. I always thought Maduin looked cool. Also Tritoch and Odin. If Terra counts in her Esper form then she is easily my favorite Esper.

>>715157527
I hate how much the amped up - dare I say Flanderized - the clown aspect of Kefka. He's too goofy in the modern media.

>>715157172
>one faces her worst nightmares, gets over a suicide attempt, chases an equally damaged dude she fell for
>another runs away to bumblefuck nowhere
Nah

>>715145517 (OP)
these girls look like nortubel characters

>>715157790
You know damn well that's an unfair summary of Terra's arc.

>>715152137
Gau was a good kid. Shame about his old man.

>>715157725
I could not agree more. I'd say Dissidia is the worst thing that ever happened to Kefka with regards to his design and characterization becoming way too far with his goofy and demented aspects, completely overshadowing the snarky, haughty, cruel Court Magician vibe he had in the original FF6. Like, fucking fart jokes?

i honestly don't care much for ff6 but terra and celes are very cool.
it's also criminal how little fanart there is of esper terra.

>>715157893
Terra believes that children are the future. Teach them well and let them lead the way

>>715145517 (OP)
Why the fuck did gestahl dress his top 3 elite knights in leotards and a clown suit?

>>715145517 (OP)
Did you photoshop their noses off

>>715158650
And yet she has no children herself. Curious.

>>715158705
Terra wasn't one of his elite knights. She was the empire's witch, more a magical weapon than anything. Kefka would cook you alive from the inside if you called his flashy and elegant garments a "clown suit". As for Celes, I have no clue lol

>>715158885
She's had a lot going on lately.

>>715158705
I always assumed Kekfa was already a bit excessive and ostentatious. Then when he went crazy it morphed into a jester appearance.
Leo dresses pretty normally
Celes is, despite her protest to the contrary, a floozy.

>>715151228
The Imperial General is a whore.

>>715145517 (OP)

glad six never get woke remake

>>715159043
At least you didn't call her an opera floozy

>>715159123
Locke rescued her from that fate.

>>715159324
Or any sort of remake judging by what happened with FF7. Truly for the best.

>>715159368
>>715159021
Gesthal is a gooner who mandates female soldiers dress like sluts.

Need 3d remake like FFIV

Terra casually hitting 9999 makes me penis hard

>She splits you in half since you pressed one of her 300 buttons accidentaly
Maybe she deserves a rest after the game

>>715159476
I like the headcanon that Kefka is the reason Terra dresses like a gypsy dancer.

Kefka is the first Magitek Knight, Gestahl dumps Terra on him to see if he can make something useful of her innate magical ability, Kefka doesn't wish to be seen with some wretched little ragamuffin so he dolls her up. Eventually he gets tired of trying to turn her into a psychopathic killing machine and just slave crowns her, problem solved. And she never stops dressing like a dancer.

>>715160446
Woman moment
If FF6 released today Kefka would be one of the definitive tumblr sexymen

The chad wild boy

>>715159524
I always thought 5 and 6 should have gotten remakes on the 3DS like 4 did on DS

>>715160636
You'd think they'd be more interested in Setzer, if anything. But all of Kefka's updates since the original have made him appear more comically grotesque. I didn't get that impression originally. He was demented yes but also narcissistic

>>715151228
It's lame how this outfit is never used in official art and such, it's so much better than that yellow pants thing they always give her.

fer da chirrens

Terra getting naked was my sexual awakening

>>715161160

>>715145517 (OP)
But who has the best theme music?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sxe71i8Hegg

>>715161098
She received some art for it, but they view Amano's as the true version I suppose

Terra should end up with Edgar.

>>715151228
>>715161098
I like all the sprite outfits better than the Amano interpretations. I've scoured lots of art over the years and nobody ever draws Kefka with this green and gold doublet and layered cape thing he has in his sprite art.

>>715161979
Edgar is taken

>>715145517 (OP)
I’m playing through for the first time and I don’t like it, currently in Sabin’s ministory (met Cyan and fought a ghost train which was honestly the highlight up to this point)

ATB puts me into this frenzy where I have to click actions asap and it’s weird to play a turn based game I can’t put down for a sec mid-battle, and I’m aware I can “pause” by going into the spell/item menu but that feels weird. And in that frenzy I don’t notice when people are low on health since the total Hp isn’t shown, I just might catch if one is in the double digits. Just feels kinda fucking bad all around and I’m sure it was cool at the time but between Sabin’s input commands, very weird event triggers (I tried leaving and going “south” to find the Veldte because the prompt didn’t show to jump down that cliff), shit like that cave section where you switched between Moogles to protect Terra… I dunno, somehow there is too much going on for me to feel like I can really strategize and engage with the mechanics. Apologies to anyone that’s a fan of this, I’ll at least go until I can get Espers

>>715162259

>>715162259
counterpoint tho

>>715159524
I wish we got those for 1 and 2 as well. Those 3D remakes actually had effort and soul and are just as worth playing as the originals.

>>715154159
Absolutely based and factually true.

>>715162167
It's the reason Nomura was chosen to lead 7's character design, he know how to design within the hardware limitations to make characters more readable and distinct.

>>715162704
I'm always surprised when I hear of someone having a hard time with FF6, especially the early game where you can just autocrossbow or blitz everything to death. Can't you just set the battle system on 'Wait' mode?

Anyway if you're miserable you might wanna quit after the Battle of Narshe when your party members all meet up again, because its gonna take you a while to get access to espers.

>>715162704
Vanilla FF6 is braindead easy your only problem in the entire game will be the Tower of Mages and the dinosaur if you are unlucky enough to find it

>>715163082
I had a friend who got hard filtered by the first fight with Sabin because he could not for the life of him input the Blitz command properly.

>>715163264
>me, with my mortal kombat/street fighter 2 experience

I got filtered in FFV by the Sandworm because kid me could not fathom not using Ifrit and Shiva on everything.

>>715162259
If you like FFVI, give this a read if you haven't already. The creator of Sabin & Edgar, Tanaka is my favorite bits, explaining how serious it is for them to tell anyone their middle names. Even Locke doesn't know Edgar's but Relm does.
I adore that they even put plot points to little things you might not notice, like how when you unequip Setzer's bandana, he'll never put it on again due to deciding that Locke wears it better.

https://shmuplations.com/ff6/
Definitely worth a read if you love FFVI.

>Seeing the lines I’d written actually spoken by the characters in-game got me really anxious, though. (laughs) “All the characters are good, except Sabin and Edgar”… I was very afraid to hear those words. (laughs)
If only she knew she made the best characters in the series.

>>715163082
I’m not having a hard time it’s just that all these factors combine to make me think, “I’m winning, but I’m not sure how” and I don’t get much out of it, you know? Like I stumbled upon the bio blaster which makes many mobs a joke, but it’s an item, when will it fall off with no recovery and what comes next?

Also regarding posts after this the Sabin intro did take me a few tries lol, I just didn’t know exactly when to do the left right left input. There’s no feedback until it either works or doesn’t so I kept trying to select the enemy with a second A press, or doing it as the turn started, etc. After I accidentally did the input for his aura beam (touchscreen emulator) I’ve just been defaulting to that

>>715163910
Phonezoomers definitely not beating the allegations

Is it possible to still get the ios version anywhere?

Everyone hates it but I have a morbid curiosity

For some reason I love Terra 100% platonically. If she was real I would want to be just friends.

>>715161160
it gave her life meaning

>>715164429
yeah same, she's been through too much and has an army of shotas and lolis to raise. now celes on the other hand

>>715145517 (OP)
Gogo
Golem for actually being worth summoning

>>715145517 (OP)
Kefka is my favorite character because he's literally me. Out of playable party members maybe Terra/Tina is my favorite, but only if she has green hair, if not then Locke. Gameplay wise, I'm partial to Mog, he's just fun to use. I don't really have a favorite esper, but I'll say Maduin, I like his design and his mini story arc, even if he's dumb.

Figaro Twins

>>715164428
Only the V edition is worth anything, since it has upgraded monster sprite art and the bonus stuff. VI's IOS Steam is notoriously shit with a metric shit ton of bugs and graphical errors. Like that bridge in Mt. Koltz before Vargas, the entire backdrop becomes worse than its SNES counterpart.

>>715164428
But to answer you, no, you have to download them elsewhere, as they're removed from all Apple and Steam stores.

>>715145517 (OP)
Fuck later releases in the series for giving Terra blonde hair

>>715164429
I can't lewd Terra. She's one of the last characters from my childhood that remains untouched. Celes too, but that's because she's boring.

>>715169881
Did they? It's still green on gba, and ios from what I've seen. Seems to be the one detail they bucked Amano on. Thank God, shoulda done it more. Guy draws cool monsters but should stay away from human characters outside of FF4.

Just finished this game with the brave new world mod, it was alright

Does anyone know the romhack where there's an Onion Knight and a bunch of other custom content in the game for some reason?

>>715170297
I mean stuff like Dissidia

>>715162845
How are the PC ports for those 3D remakes? Been eyeing them for a while, but those ports tend to have some issues oftentimes.

>>715158537
This is the exact same shit that hapenned to Wario in Brawl.

>>715145517 (OP)
>Character
Setzer. He's got a nice design, backstory, and Loaded Dice + Master Scroll is funny.

>Esper
I don't even remember what most of them do. I barely used them because of how easy the game is.

I like VI a lot, but it doesn't really live up to the reputation it has, at least in my opinion. In terms of SNES JRPGs I like Chrono Trigger, Dragon Quest V, and Final Fantasy V more. In terms of Final Fantasy, I prefer VII and VIII, on top of the aforementioned V. Chrono Trigger in particular does the whole end of the world plot better than FFVI did.
Also, I really don't care for Amano's art. It really doesn't fit my view of how these sprites would translate into artwork. It worked for the first 3 games, was tolerable for IV, but I really dislike his takes on the casts of V and VI.

>>715169423
>VI's IOS Steam is notoriously shit with a metric shit ton of bugs and graphical errors
Figures I would pick the bad one when those were still available on Steam... Fml

>>715160272
>She splits you in half since you pressed one of her 300 buttons accidentaly
fucking madcatz

Currently in World of Ruin in the T-Edition and came to a realization that Setzer is really great in it
>free party heal that doesn't get Runic'd or reflected
>chance to get clutch Esper summons
>regular attack is incredibly powerful across everything
>high MP pool so can be partnered with Seraphim for fully party heavy emergency heals

I think I'll try messing around with other characters I usually bench too like Strago and Relm.

>>715170675
The one I know that adds a lot of extra content is called T-edition

>>715170675
Beyond Chaos Randomizer goes pretty wild in custom content.

T-Edition adds tons of extra encounters and changes up balance of party members and world in general to get you to think more for each fight.

>Favorite Character
Celes for sure, some of the best moments in the game and her romance with Locke (who is also one of my favorites) is now one of my favorite pairs in vidya
Terra, Sabin, Shadow, Setzer are all definitely up there too. FF6 has a really solid cast
>Favorite Esper
Alexander as an actual summon
Raiden for teaching Quick which is the most broken spell in the game

>>715173270
Setzer is underrated, by the time you acquire him the cast is already getting pretty big and I think people overlook him until he becomes one of the first 4 in World of Ruin
He also has the prestige of being the first Gambler class in FF history which while can seem unreliable is as fun as it is risky, along with a very cool aesthetic in general.

>>715150178
>seltzer
>randomness
Oh fuck bro. You do not actually know how he works. He is the opposite of random

>>715171878
>Chrono Trigger in particular does the whole end of the world plot better than FFVI did.
I like them both because they both have a very different approach to the end of the world.
In Chrono Trigger it's about going through time to prevent the tragedy from ever happening in the first place
In Final Fantasy VI the tragedy is unavoidable and it's about picking up the pieces and moving on afterwards

>>715176285
how does setzer work?

>>715162167
Fun fact, you can get Kefka's dead sprite in the sealed cave battle if you proc Edgar's hockey mask chainsaw.

>During the end of the world in the original SNES game, they cut Metamorphosis during the shot from orbit as the world tears itself apart
>In the GBA version onward, it keeps playing.
I always hated this change, the silence added gravitas to it.

>>715145517 (OP)
>character
cyan, setzer runner up
>esper
terra (palidor/quetzali if i have to pick a magicite esper)

>>715170710
But that is her actual design

I also think Terra looks better with green hair
It just makes sense with her being half Esper to have some visual bizarreness to her and it looks more fantastical

>>715160446
I like this headcanon, accepted

Celes feels like she's belongs in an eroge
She actually has more porn than Terra

>>715178319
She can become blonde once she loses her esper half. Best of both worlds.

Setzer and Celes. Love how she gets him to join with the same coin Edgar used to give his brother his freedom.

I particularly love rom hacks that give Celes more utility by making Runic more useful than a handful in boss fights throughout the game. Really loving T-Edition so far.

In terms of favorite Esper, I don't think I have one. Never really viewed them as more than spell learning, stat rocks.

>>715145517 (OP)
Relm
Don't even remember the Espers' names really, beyond the ones that appear in all FFs.

>>715179313
I mean do you remember her introduction?

>>715145517 (OP)
Edgar. Alexander as a summon and Phoenix for teaching Life 3. Terra, Gogo and Shadow round up my favorite party, although I love and rotate everyone.

>>715157527
>>715158537
I got tired of correcting people about it myself. You ever played Final Fantasy 14 and do the Omega raids you see Kefka dropping pots and pans on players for "hyperdrive" like what the absolute fuck is this bullshit. It's because he gets compared to the joker and now suddenly that means clown because they saw Amono's art and white makeup suddenly he's a whole circus.

I think part of it is FF7 vs FF6 arguments relying on Kefka vs Sephiorth to sandbag the imagery of either villain (momma boy vs clown) and the Japanese inability to understand nuance. I don't even think the Japanese had a real idea of what he was, and we see some examples with FF9's Zorn and Thorn or Oscha from Final Fantasy Unlimited.

>>715180524
>Remove her chains?
>Wait a few minutes...

>>715182683
Yeah I agree. Kefka was kind of a bumbler at times in the first half of the game, and had some goofiness and some spontaneity to him but he wasn't a try-hard jester like it seems recent reimaginings have him acting like. He was just cruel and found evil things hilarious and no appreciation for life, but I think he'd have have pic-related reactions to seeing himself acting like a twat in Dissidia/FFXIV

I don't think I used the espers much, but I've always liked Carbunlce in FF games.

>>715191723
There's too many major characters and no clear protagonist that stands out ahead of them all, so it feels like a bunch of inconsequential characters are constantly interrupting your journey.

Yuffie is seen as annoying to many FF7 players and as an unneeded distraction from the plot; FF6 has an entire cast of Yuffies.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=260oetpb9mM

>>715183502
I think it's cope to be honest. The competency of Kefka cannot be understated and I don't mean this for his "finale" but moreso how he even got there. I don't people want to come to terms with a character with a nihilistic regard for life as someone capable of taking it.

Doma isn't our first interaction with the goof since that would be Figaro and he burned the castle forcing them to go under the sand, but it's an intimate demonstration of his command ability and problem solving. Kefka not only berates his underlings and view them as fodder, but he had an entire scene dedicated to poisoning the water supply of Doma which is unheard of in anything prior. There are instances where places that get erased in FF5 come back after Exdeath is dead and the void is sealed. Doma doesn't come back. He committed a war crime because to him it's easier than it is engage the people in Doma, and I don't even know if the Emperor gave him the idea or he acted on his own accord; but this is where it gets ominous, he wouldn't be in the position he was in with Geshtal otherwise. The emperor knows this because it might not be the first time either.

Sure he's been bested at Narshe but then you see him again in the Magiteck lab siphoning espers and probably gaping Shiva throwing her and Ifirit in a pit of dead espers. He knows of the warring triad, his ambitions are already said, and he even understood the magicite transference as it happened when you meet Cid. He even plants doubt in the group with Lock and Celes. He uses his magicite knowledge to neutralize espers in Thamasa and forces them to crystalize. The goofy antics and laugh distracts from what is a severely competent foe and his betrayel of the emperor highlights his own mechanical knowledge of magic involving the warring triad's position and negate/channeling fields. I think it makes people uncomfortable someone that competent and adaptive is wearing makeup and laughing.

>>715193935
I don't, though I think I remember seeing them on Danbooru, that might have the artist.

>>715196102
he's literally unironically me

>>715196523
yeah people make him out to be like a comic relief when in the actually story he's like the head of the secret police or something.

>>715186641
Shadow goes underappreciated because it's really easy to miss out on his backstory. I don't remember spending a lot of time in Inn's (it's easy enough to heal/rest outside of them) and least of all with Shadow in the party and that's the only way you get snippets of his past is by sleeping in Inns with him in the party. But it's genuinely really cool and it's nice they at least set up hints outside of those flashbacks like with Interceptor getting along with and recognizing Relm despite Shadow's warning he's not friendly.

>>715197372
honestly I always thought Shadow was just really fucking cool even without his backstory
>Badass mercenary with a dog
>Is just in it for the money, good or evil
>Cool name, appearance and Throw ability

Anyone else think Terra running an orphanage was perfect for her?

>>715198351
Yes. It was a great way for her to cope after the end of the world, a girl who struggled to remember and even understand what love WAS, suddenly having to be in a position where she has to provide it for many children who lost their homes/families and now is receiving it in turn.

>>715198728
That and it's appropriate given she lost her parents as well and was lost without a real caregiver for years, she knows how much it sucks to be left alone like that.

>>715145517 (OP)
Relm.
Diablo.

>>715198351
Definitely. I also really love her characterization in Dissidia and how her and Cloud are so alike that they just look out for each other. Doesn't have to be a shipping thing, either; they just really compliment one another.

>>715199627
I like to think that Eiko could summon Ozma to style on Garnet, but that's mostly because I'm not fond of Garnet's character for the first 85% of the game.

>>715200220
That would be hillarious and 200% in character for her, dabbing on her just because she stole Zidane from her.

Did Edgar ever score?

>>715203681
nah, he'd have to fall to his pedophilic urges to "score" anything

>>715186127
>Is the reward for finding/beating all eight dragons
>Is useless as a summon because it'll wipe out your own party
>Even if it doesn't there are other means of doing as much damage as Crusader without an heroing your crew
>Even the spells it teaches (Meteor) is not as good compared to Flare or Ultima
What were they thinking?

>>715196523
Huh, I honestly never really paid much mind to Kefka's characterization outside of FFVI, probably because of how long it's been since I played it, but reading this thread, it is odd how much they leaned into him looking like jester to write his personality.
That said, I can't help but find a vindictive sense of satisfaction seeing that bastard get reduced to some sort of comic relief clown.

>>715203857
Is he really a pedophile though, hes more of a retard than anything, think something like Jhonny Bravo.

>>715205684
>I can't help but find a vindictive sense of satisfaction seeing that bastard get reduced to some sort of comic relief clown
Today, in villains done right:

>>715151107
Chainsaw is not even that good
Too many enemies are undead/have death resistance in ff6
Drill is much better

>>715205327
Meteor kind of compensates by ignoring split casting penalty which lets you hit a lot of targets at no downsides. That and as difficult as it is to get all eight dragons I think it's still easier to obtain (or at least to find) than Bahamut/Ragnarok

>>715145517 (OP)
Edgar, Alexander.

I really like flash. Incredibly good for how early you get it, and it's stylish to boot.

>>715206654
Depending on how much you know about the game, maybe?
At least the dragons you know they're out there and if you're thorough it isn't hard to find them all. I got all eight without looking them up. I did not know Ragnarok as a magicite even existed without looking that up. Chalk that up to my being less than experienced or didn't explore as hard as I could but at least in my case I found the dragons first.

leotard terra

>>715162167
amano is the original, the sprites are the interpretations

>>715209254
>>715162167
Amano did the concept art and Nomura did the in-game designs.

The combat in FF games (excluding 10) is braindead, there isn't any strategy. I played it for the story, music and graphics. Literally, I finished it only to hear the final boss theme.

I recommend trying Chrono Trigger. It has ATB but it's better utilized with a bit more strategy. Short and sweet game too.

>>715169423

>>715209163
Dancing Mad is a cool song but it's a huge medley that merely includes an alternate version of his theme song within it. As you said, it doesn't suit him as his main theme. The tone and melody of his actual theme fits his dialog, his aesthetic and his actions to a tee

OMGERD THEY DID THE MEME

>>715210265
i don't disagree

>>715209254
I recently heard the exact opposite. That Amano came in and did his designs later which is why the overworld sprites don't match his art.

https://arch.b4k.dev/v/thread/711474468/#711477426

To be honest though I don't care which came first. I don't like most of Amano's designs outside of some of the monsters and I vastly prefer the sprite designs.

>>715193319
No, there is nothing wrong with wanting to wife someone who despite a brash exterior is in genuine need of loving affection and support.

he did a shitty job matching the sprites then, but that's amano for you. good art, bad likeness.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laTXGk7IqgE

>>715210869
>>715210687
Fun fact: Amano originally brought his designs to the team in literal pixel art form, because his misunderstood the assignment and thought he was to make the in-game designs for FF1. Sakaguchi then told him they wanted his real art instead because they thought having his wild vision that couldn't be done in game as the promo material would stir players' imaginations better.

They told him not to follow the in-game graphics.

>>715209668
Were the statues eerily resembling the main cast an intentional thing or just a coincidence?

>>715211543
I have never seen it addressed by Nomura or any of the other team, so I can't say. Maybe someone else has seen it in an interview I haven't.

>>715211613
you'd fuck anything

>>715210178
The combat is mindless, sorry if you can't face the truth. Fortunately old FF excels in other areas, like art and music, setting, sometimes writing.

>>715210687
Why the hell are so many monster sprites almost 1:1 with his art, then? Like, throughout all 6 games.

>>715211763
I don't give a fuck about SNES JRPG combat and if I replayed that game I'd probably just use cheats. The difference, though, between you and me is that I have self awareness. I know that I am lazy. I do not need to be a fucking faggot justifying it. I respect video games that are not necessarily for me.

>>715211904
>I don't give a fuck about SNES JRPG combat
gayest post i've ever seen

I still think it's funny that my favorite character is Edgar and my younger brother's is Sabin. Hasn't changed since we were kids, and 6 is both our favorites although my second favorite is 8 and his is 7.

>>715211904
Okay, looney

>>715211772
Why are so many of them not? It's bizarre either way you look at it. On the one hand you have No.128 and on the other hand you have Magitek Armors. I think it'd make a bit more sense if some of the non-Amano designs were put into the game earlier in development and the ones that match Amano's art came later when they actually had his art to work from. But that's just my gut feeling on it.

It's ultimately an academic question anyway; you either prefer one or the other regardless of which was made first.

>>715212119

>>715211772
>>715212221
That's actually really easy. At least, for 1 through 3. Amano didn't design every monster. For those he didn't, the graphic team did themselves. At least according to an interview with Kazuko Shibuya.
>Also, for FINAL FANTASY I to III, any monster designs that were not assigned to (FINAL FANTASY concept art illustrator) Yoshitaka Amano were drawn by the graphics team at the time, including myself.
https://www.square-enix-games.com/en_EU/news/final-fantasy-pixel-remaster-kazuko-shibuya
It's not much of a stretch to imagine it was the same for the other three games.

>>715145517 (OP)
I wish the design that sticked with Relm as her "main" one was Amanos, I fucking despise the design Nomura gave her and I hate even more the fact that it became her default one.

>>715212707
>framerate drop in a cutscene on predefined hardware

>>715212707

>>715212791
Nomura's design for Relm is probably the one that's closest to Amano's design out of any of them.

sexooooooooo (once she's legal)

Kill 255 T-rexes.
Do it.

you didn't do this, right?

you waited, right?

>>715213127
normally I despise games that take control away of my preferred character and make me use other people like Suikoden 3, Octopath, etc. FF6 was one of the first games to do it, and one of the only games where I loved every single group's story, even Edgar's short ass one with Banon (for the lore dump).

>>715210265
I always found Dancing Mad, like the tower, is what Kefka wants people to look at him and perceive, while his actual theme you can hear breaking out at certain parts like he can't help himself.

>>715213201
He just ends up killing himself anyway

I had assumed Shadow would escape on his own, or maybe I had forgotten he was going to catch up with me, but I think I didn't think to wait and I regretted it on my first time.
In retrospect I should have taken the hint when it asked me if I wanted to wait or not
Love mechanics like this in games btw, when seemingly innocuous choices you'd not think twice on taking in a video game like choosing to hop on early while the timer's still running can have real consequences.

People still not crediting Shibuya. Sad

>>715214803
Wasn't Shibuya responsible for the shitty sticker sprites of the iOS ports?

My favorite character is Sabin because he kills everything.
My favorite epser is zoneseek, because it raises your magic score by 2 points every time you level up.

>>715212765
Ah, that explains a lot, thanks. Although in the case of FF6 we did wind up with a lot of things that had two separate designs. Like for the Mtek Armor or the character sprites themselves. So it's not that Amano didn't do designs for these things at all, his designs just weren't always reflected in-game

Ragnarok the sword or Ragnarok the esper?

>>715215813
Always the sword. Lightbringer is the one of the easiest ways to get maximum mblock (and thus, be unhittable).

>>715214181
well no because the "hard" mode is the DS difficulty (which was also released in the west) so it's more like PC difficulty

>>715214915
IIRC unfortunately yes

>>715216525

>>715216525
Yeah, having no other real credits like lead character designer for any popular characters and then THAT attached to your name will surely find you missing from the conversation.

>>715171634
The UIs are garbage compared to DS/PSP, but the graphics themselves are much nicer, with vivid colors (even 3DS is washed out as fuck. Maybe 3 looks nice on Vita, but since that piece of shit doesn't accept PSP carts and I only hacked mine to run emulators, not PSP games, I haven't checked).

>>715149882
But only as though their 'canon' names belong to the character rather than the individual, so you get
>Bozo as CYAN GARAMONDE

Sabin doesn't get enough love. Takes care of an orphan child, suplexes a train, and is willing to let his brother rule a kingdom so he can be free to live his life.

>>715213125
Pretty sure the King decides what's legal and what's not.

>>715217314

>>715162167
I've always hated Amano's art. Everyone looks like a gay clown except the actual gay clowns.

>>715216694
Eh, everyone has a stain on their record. She did a lot of work on the Nintendo era FFs (except 4). A lot of the pixel art that everyone likes so much and prefers over newer stuff is her work.
Then again, the newer stuff is also her work. So...

>>715217014
Sabin has caused me a bit of a problem though. He is so much stronger than anyone else that the game just feels like the Sabin show. And if you don't use him, you're using another loser who does no damage.

The only thing I hate are people who claim that the old FF games are "supposed" to look like exactly like the Amano concept art. They aren't. They are supposed to look as they do.

Even though the game had an ensemble cast, it still felt like Terra, Celes, and Kefka were the main characters.

You can jump at any time. You might not even know it makes a difference for hours of gameplay. No other game in the series puts you in this position. Every other optional character is one unlocked by seeking them out, not the being removed by a decision you make.

>>715233509
Considering that she was basically raised from birth to be an Imperial weapon, and likely spent years robbed of conscious thought by the slave crown, she'd probably be easy to manipulate in to just about anything.

>>715211732
Imagine.

>FF1/3/5 took pages from Dragon Quest 3, and were more about making your own party with blank-slate characters with the intention of the player filling in the gaps with their own imagination. (Except for 5 but even then the characters aren't that developed for how much screentime they get.)
>FF2/4/6 hyper focuses on the story. Your party members are defined characters, and they often leave the party for various reasons. In the case of FF6, your perspective constantly changes for a good bit of the game to give the player a better context on the world itself.
Not really as individual games, but as the whole concept, which style do you prefer?

I think games like Bravely Default bridge the gap between the two.

>>715223886
I always preferred Celes/Setzer over Celes/Locke but Terra/Setzer does make some mathematical sense. There's not a lot of outside fuel for it that I know of though.

>>715220629
Just play it now, a remake of this is a decade out if not more

>>715235946
The latter I guess. I want to be engrossed in the world and the characters' personal journies. I like how on paper Terra and Celes are the same character: Magitek soldier in Gestahl's army, but they're looking for different things based on what's missing in their lives.

I want to have Relm shattering sex.

my last playthrough i used the patch for the 32k damage limit and had Gau setup with a merit award + genji glove + illumina + pearl lance
could do 32k x4 damage in a single attack if both catscratches proc'd pearl thanks to pumping his vigor the whole time, with a hyper wrist instead of genji glove catscratch was overflowing

>>715182683
Japan didn't really have a concept of Kefka in the way the US did. He was partially a different character in the Japanese script, it was his English translation that gave him the Joker parallels.

That said, it also wasn't overdone. You could tell he was a sadist and a nihilist but he wasn't completely goofy like a clown. He was more like someone completely socially maladjusted who laughed at inappropriate times.

>>715159043
Kefka was the first attempt at creating a magitek soldier by imbuing a human directly with the power of Espers. The attempt completely broke his mind, but he was still a very useful soldier so he wasn't just tossed out.

I have to think it wasn't a complete departure from his previous character though, if he went from being a relatively stable general into a clown I think the empire would've been more apprehensive about trying again. I think it just amplified his traits beyond what they normally were which was acceptable as a side effect. It also could explain Celes's melancholy from the procedure as well, perhaps she was always somewhat quiet and reserved and only after being imbued with magitek did it develop further.

>>715176091
Come to think of it, that's actually a really clever way to get around the lack of attachment people would have with him from coming so late. In the World of Ruin, when you're absolutely desperate to find someone, anyone, to help fill your ranks and get back to fighting strength, Setzer is one of the first characters you get with his own important arc.

Check the IOS/Steam version again. The monster art honestly is the closest to a PSP style variant we have. It's great art.

Is there still no mod to make the character sprites (literally the only bad part of the port) actually look good?

>>715230752
Anytime. FFVI threads are always a hoot.
It might be unpopular, but I really miss Opera Omnia. It's been the only game that consistently was giving homage to II-VI, including all the others. The writers would always pair characters that have similar arcs or plot points to give their takes on whatever another character was going through, and it was great. It was clear they knew how to write the characters and were fans of the whole series.
They have an arc where all the monks get together to make a tourney and they pair the 3 big favorites together (Yang, Sabin, Tifa) and have them win. Fucking loved that chapter.
There's a part where Edgar, trying to get the Type-0 girls to open up to him, tells them his middle and and it's the only character inconsistency I ever notice.
Opera Omnia Offline never.

SquareEnix truly are bumfuck retarded and it will never not upset me.

>>715251627
Not that I know of. FFVI's had a pretty ambitious undertaking to do just that, but I don't believe they ever finished it, and now that both are delisted, it doesn't look too good. Locke's beergut is there to stay.
If they did that for V, removed the obvious RPG maker tile bullshit and even changed the UI, it would absolutely be the definitive version of the game.
The five protagonist's character expressions are actually a pretty great addition in the IOS version, because they used the FFVI expressions and you can tell when Bartz, Faris, Lenna, Galuf and Krile use Locke, Edgar, Sabin, Terra and someone else I can't remember's expressions. It's a pretty cool upgrade from the original SNES one in that regard, since FFV essentially uses the same sprite style as IV SNES.

>>715271742
He’s honestly my favorite FF character and I’ve never done a run without him in my main party

>>715269508
Just got to equip the relics to change it over to mug to replace his regular attack command, and the gloves to raise the chance to steal. Makes it OP as fuck.

>>715272506
I actually sat down and used Locke in my recent playthrough of pixel remaster because historically I barely ever used him at all beyond forced segments. Genji Glove + 1 hit KO anti-flying weapon + Valiant Knife fucked shit up for the vast majority of my playthrough. He really needs to dual wield to pump out damage.

>>715272674
People also do overlook the fact that he generates gold like crazy. Not that gold is hard to come by in the game, but if you're looking to play the game quick-ish, using the steal command is a great way to just pick up gear to sell.
Nuke with your other dudes and keep him around to get dosh.

>>715271126
Not unique, but some are limited or at least there's only one of the item found in a chest or whatever, so stealing is how you get a few more.

Why did Terra need a slave crown when she grew up her entire life as the adoptive daughter of the Emperor himself? Shouldn’t she just naturally be a gung-ho imperialist?

>>715273391
Because you need to be 100% your one of a kind half esper woman is obedient and not torch your city

>>715273391
Can't risk her having a change of heart when you let her out to be exposed to the rest of the world outside the empire's walls. She is too valuable to the emperor to risk.
At least thats my head cannon

>>715273391
Imagine how differently the story would've gone if he put the crown on kefka. It's a waste to use the crown on her when kefka has known loyalty and discipline problems.

Terra probably would've still ditched when Celes did, or maybe shortly after.

I've always thought Kefka did that behind Gestahl's back, and he did it, because he's an asshole and he could. I don't think Gestahl would've sanctioned killing fifty Vector soldiers just for a night out on the town.

>>715275007
I mostly used him because I was damned if I wasn't going to after having to redo the entire Veldt loop to get Water Rondo.

Correct me if I'm off base but does anyone else feel like FF6 has a sort of Italian Renaissance vibe to its aesthetics? It's something I've noticed lately with the sort of colors and types of clothes the characters wear that I think really looks nice and unique for the series, even the Magitech armors and more industrial elements feel like Davinci inventions in appearance.

>>715283417
I think its a fair observation

>>715221465
>>715221132
That's because WoL was never meant to be fighter to begin with, but rather the entirety of the FF1 party as a collective turned into one individual character.
Do not let modern discourse fool you into thinking otherwise.

>>715284216
@Grok is this true?

>>715192345
>There's too many major characters and no clear protagonist that stands out ahead of them all
That's the fun part. It feels more like you are engaged with the world itself and are immersed with the people who live in it. Rather than just the perspective of a self insert.

>>715275007
I honestly did use him a bit during the WoR because I liked his dances like Water Rondo and Wind Song. Mog may be the "silly mascot" party member I used the most in any Final Fantasy game. The ones I mostly ignored were Gogo and Umaro. But I did have Mog in the party semi regularly

>>715275007
>only viable dance is missable
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING?

>>715273391
Short answer: To remove her hesitation.

Long answer: They couldn't force her to develop a taste for blood. Terra would do as she was told, but she still hesitated to wholesale slaughter people with her magic. In the scene where Kefka puts the slave crown on her, the VERY FIRST thing you see her ordered to do is mercilessly burn an entire company of Imperial troopers to death. This gives you an immediate clue as to why it was needed, because that is something she otherwise would have held back on. So even after being raised within the Empire to be a magic weapon, Terra was still too damned soft hearted.

I also believe that Gestahl signed off on it. Anything to make her a more effective weapon for the empire.

>>715265503
Relm is such a terrible influence on the baby-brained amnesiac.

>>715268057
Honestly, thinking about it, they were probably too intimidated by her to seriously try stripping and fucking her even in that state. The way she was speaking to them also just doesn't suggest she'd been that thoroughly humiliated.

On one hand,i feel like terra should be more popular, on the other it gets her out of coomer artists sight (usually)

I cant lewd her, doesnt feel right

>>715192345
Yuffie literally murdered my first ever playthrough and I still wouldn't call her an annoying distraction. What kind of spaz stick in the mud hates Yuffie's (entirely optional) inclusion in the game?

>>715286897
>Terra was still too damned soft hearted
With a heavy emphasis on the WAS. I fucking love her character arc.
>Terra in Figaro Castle: Unsure about doing literally anything
>Terra at the end of her journey:
https://youtu.be/gZjz1781KNU?t=76

That's a really apt analysis of why they used the crown; nice one.

>>715288646
I can lewd her, but it's good that she doesn't get drawn by the usual suspects.

When I was a kid I thought Terra was being a moron for refusing to leave those dumb kids, but I appreciate her character arc more now. Still slightly annoying but understandable. Why couldn't we just relocate them to a larger settlement? Too juicy a target for the Light of Judgment?

>It might be unpopular, but I really miss Opera Omnia
Same, I kind of lost interest towards the end, but I still lament the fact that we never got the final parts of the story in global and that SE never bothered to make an offline version.
There were so many character moments and interactions that helped flesh them out, expand on their personal story and/or show them in situations that wouldn't have been possible on their original games, it really helped me appreciate certain characters more and made me more interested in playing the games that I had yet to play or hadn't looked much into.

I don't like chibishit.

Was Celes actually a traitor?
Dialog indicates yes, but that means Kefka's grand plan is that someone just happen to find her in a dungeon below a town behind enemy lines?

>>715293470
What?

>>715293297
Palidor was my favorite when I was younger, both visually and because it made you "safe" for a small period of time. Your post made me remember that, so thank you.

>>715293470
Nah. I've heard that Cyan has a line where he goes "I know I should have taken your head" or something to that effect when Kefka makes the accusation, but I've never been able to replicate it with any team composition I tried, and it makes 0 fucking sense for Cyan to believe the murderer of his family at any level.
The guy is sitting outside Kefka's cell because he's contemplating whether he should shit the bed for the Returner's and put everyone in danger for the sake of revenge.

>>715293470
she originally was the traitor, but Nomura or whoever fell in love with her character as she was being developed. She most likely could have been a double agent and rejoin the team at some point because of Locke's relationship with Celes. Also concept art showed us more characters that didn't make it and Terra was slated to be a guy at one point. World of Balance was originally suppose to end at Floating Continent, but due to smooth progress and extra memory in the system, they decided to expand into the World of Ruin.

>>715294218
Kitase created Celes iirc. Nomura was mostly still a monster designer at this point but had the opportunity to create 2 characters in Shadow and Setzer.

>>715291038
A lot of people had that sentiment back in the day, and it definitely is annoying; but as you said, it shows her character in a very positive light and makes her return even better.

I personally think Kefka was intentionally waiting for the Returners to regroup, or at least anyone to challenge him, because at some primal level he wants to be proven wrong. Why else wouldn't he just waste every town, where he clearly demonstrates he can do so at any time.
Instead he waits an entire year for all of them to regroup, reach him and tell him the answer to his question: What the fuck are you even clinging to this shitty existence for. He just is a pessimist as well as a nihilistic megalomaniac, so no answer was really going to sate his query.
Ironically to quote him "None of that junk is enough to fulfill hearts"

>>715291479
>it really helped me appreciate certain characters more and made me more interested in playing the games that I had yet to play or hadn't looked much into.
My sentiments exactly. It really helped you see things from even the rougher or lesser characterized players. And as you said, giving interest to games you either dropped or never got around to, to further appreciate them.

Maybe one day Squee will get their heads out of their asses and release an offline version with the missing JP story that finishes it up. It definitely doesn't paint any of the Final Fantasys in a negative light, and utilizing FFX's turn based combat really is a fun way to enjoy Dissidia.

>>715293470
Doesn't seem that way. I always took that as Gestahl and Kefka just assuming she had decided to infiltrate and were giving her a chance to rejoin right there. After all they had the statues, they'd pretty much already won.

If Celes ever fed them information or sabotaged our efforts I do not recall it.

>>715145517 (OP)
Edgar joins the party as an OP rockstar and the chad energy never stops.The moment that cements him as the best character for me is when he uses the thieves in the WoR to find his castle, and when Celes asks if he's going to go after them to get the royal treasure back, he says fuck the treasure it's worth nothing compared to my people.

Terra deserves honorable mention, learning how to love through the children of Mobliz, wanting to protect them and give them a better life than she had.

Back when video games gave you characters to aspire towards.

>>715157527
>>715157725
>>715158537
It's shocking how mischaracterized Kefka is outside of his own game. They bounce between cheesy goofball antics and "sad clown" in dissidia, it's ridiculous. He's not silly or stupid. He's weird, unsettling, and extremely dangerous. EVERYONE in the empire except maybe Gestahl hates and/or fears him, and those are his allies. He doesn't prance around in FF6. Every time he cracks a joke, people die. Usually a whole settlement dies.

>>715293878
There's similar lines in the script dumps for the SNES and GBA versions, but nothing that graphic.

SNES
>KEFKA: General CELES!! The game's over. Bring me those Magicite shards!
>LOCKE: CELES! You...deceived me?!
>CELES: Of course not! Have a little faith!
> (If Cyan is in the party.)
> CYAN: See! I knew she couldn't be trusted!
>KEFKA: G'hee, hee, hee! She has tricked you all! CELES, that's so...YOU!

GBA
>Kefka: General Celes! We needn't keep up the charade any longer. Bring me those magicite crystals!
>Locke: Celes! You...tricked us!?
>Celes: Of course not! Please, trust me!
> (If Cyan is in the party.)
> Cyan: Hmph. I knew she was not to be trusted!
>Kefka: Hee-hee-hee! The sweet taste of betrayal! Oh, Celes! That's so...you!

The scripts for Mobile and Pixel Remaster are based off the GBA script, so I doubt it'd be in either of them. All that said, I don't know how to trigger the lines either. I've watched videos of different versions with Cyan in the party at that point, and the line never triggers. I'd say it's a bug, for it to persist through remakes is mind boggling.

>>715295025
The Figaro bros really can just carry you through the whole game

>>715294218
Wasn't the entire game supposed to end at the floating continent?

>>715209163

The rare fan art of sprite outfit Kefka.

>>715295025
Always funny that Edgar has this reputation considering the game itself tells you that he's actually this utter fucking turbo-nerd. Like "locks himself in his room tinkering with random bullshit in his spare time instead of socializing" kinda shit. It's supposed to be the actual reason for his poor track record with women

>>715295025
Edgar in your image looks super gay and kissable.

>>715295737
Please stop liking the things I like.

>>715295413
Heh, yeah, most people end up just defaulting to the Figaro brothers for that part, so Gau and Cyan are the outliers there.
It still is bothersome, as just like the opera segment is Celes finally letting her guard down and showing that she's more than a weapon or traitor and that the Returners are her friends, the battle of Narshe is supposed to be a moment where characters like Celes and Cyan are fighting for their lives side by side and gaining camaraderie for one another, and that line really fucks with that.
I'm glad it can't be replicated, lol.

>>715295834
no

>>715293470
No, Kefka was definitely just trying to sew seeds of doubt in Locke and the others since the Returners were making a lot of progress and he wanted to cause chaos in their ranks.
Celes' denial to the accusation feels genuine, and later when Locke/Celes meet again in Albrook she's clearly very hurt by his previous lack of faith in her and Locke also regrets doubting her at all. I think both of these make less sense if Celes really was a spy all along.
>>715294218
Also this, there was an entire dropped storyline where Celes originally was set to be a traitor infiltrating the Returners intent to betray them from within, but fell in love with Locke and couldn't go through with it (you can see that in the same interview posted earlier https://shmuplations.com/ff6/ )

>>715295413
Can't help but feel this (as in Cyan's optional line) is some ancient hold-over from when she actually was supposed to be a legit mole and only slightly less crazy than Kefka. I know they still make the accusations during the Vector portion of the game but they ring incredibly hollow given how she actually acts and no one ever seriously believes it.

>>715295667
I wonder if it was his idea to turn the castle into a sandworm or if it was already there and was the reason he became an engineer

>>715295974
I don't think it was a trick. I think Gestahl and Kefka really believed Celes was just waiting for the right moment to join back up. IIRC they were genhinely surprised when Celes ran Kefka through instead of selling out her new "friends"

I'm leaning toward delusional overconfidence

>>715295413
Shit, I can't seem to find the art of Locke, Edgar and Sabin in the rafters of the opera house fighting the rats, but all the fanart always seems to use that composition. I mean, why separate the brothers again?

>>715161979
I don't think Terra ends up with anyone, you have Celes and Locke for a romantic subplot within the main cast.

I like some properly dressed Celes
>no armor for a knight
don't care, as long as she's not dressed for a brothel

>>715296934
It absolutely fits her arc, even if I was initially dismayed at the idea of her having lost her ability to fight when you first find her in the WoR as a kid

>>715297048
she is dressed for battle

>>715297048
I don't mind either version of her outfit, that said I am shockingly embarrassed that it took like nearly 30 and someone posting >>715196256 for me to realize that sprite Terra and Celes are meant to be wearing the same general uniform

>>715297265
I'd wrestle with her.

>>715296534
What the hell, did she find a super mushroom or something

>>715297347
Should have been the default look for all Magitek Knights besides Kefka. All Mtek Knights are girls in leotards and shoulderpads, I have decided

>>715297649

>>715297347
Similar uniforms maybe, but not the exact same. Terra's got cleavage and smaller pauldrons, while Celes has a cape.

>>715297898
Ordinarily there'd be a lot more trolling and shitposting over how overrated 6 is and a whole bunch of 6 vs. 7 and 8 vs. 9 bait posts, and the usual "Kefka is just like me intelligent nihilistic with a wicked sense of humor" copy pasta, et cetera

It's an old game by today's standards, they are zoomer repellents so you don't get the usual suspects derailing and shitposting
