Beef don't bring your FF4 slander here hmph!
On topic I really hope we get console ports of the first VI games. Especially the PSP versions.

Yeah, I was thinking 3 (Japan) was 3 (US). But if we're talking 3 (US) then we're actually talking about 6 (Japan). I prefer the 2d approach with slightly updated graphics, but kept in the same style as the original.
Nobody really refers to them with the US numbering anymore, it became outdated pretty much as soon as they started rereleasing then with the correct numbering. But this game is 3.
I'm one of the rare ones that wouldn't have minded 6 (and 5) being remade in this style, I'm still sad they stopped after IV.
Looking at the trailer, the battles distinctly look like they're running at lower than 30 FPS.
Didn't all the DS FF remakes run at a lower framerate in battles?
No, only 4 has that issue (and even that has a workaround via ini changes)
lol yea, just downloaded it to proof the statement above and the game just flatout won't work, good job square enix!
I really like the Final Fantasy IV Complete Edition which came out for vita. This art style is similar to the original art.
So there this little game, you may of heard of it, its only called FINAL FANTASY VI!
And it still looks like the dog vomited on it!
Maybe, I dunno, do something about that?

Huh. Thought Steam was doing that weird thing it occasionally does when it "updates" a bunch of random games with a 0 KB "download", but this one was real.
Don't suppose they finally brought the game up to the standards of 1996 and added texture filtering?
EDIT: ...aaaaand the game crashes right after the opening FMV. Amazing patch, Square. Looks like they're going to have to roll this one back just the FFX/X-2 PC update.
EDIT 2: Looks like they fixed it just now. Impressive turnaround, though I'm still baffled as to how the above issue went unnoticed.

Ooh, unexpected. Don't like playing games on mobile so I'll give this a miss but if it comes to other platforms, I'm sold. Loved it on the DS, the PSP version was even better.
it looks fine to me tbhSo there this little game, you may of heard of it, its only called FINAL FANTASY VI!

Yes it looks wonderful.
Those misaligned background tiles, those horrible new sprites, that blur, that filtering.
All is wonderful, nothing to see here.

This is an abomination. Badly drawn characters and badly drawn environment art.
I'm not seeing anything misaligned, like I said it looks fine.Yes it looks wonderful.

Esh, yeah. I've played 1, 2, 3 and 4 and 3 is the only one I haven't beaten because of that last dungeon. I spent over 10 hours trying to beat the final boss and I'm like no, I'm forgetting this and going on to 4. This was on the DS so I can't try out the new speed stuff.

Outside of the font choice, which isn't even that bad, this is the route they should have taken for all the other 2D "remakes", at least when it comes to the battle sprites. The overworld sprites were where you can see them start to adopt the "tiny torso, giant arms" you see in the V and VI updates. Keeping things pixelated helps obscure it a bit, at least.
Honestly though it's really baffling Square Enix seems allergic to pixel art when two of their major mobile titles, Brave Exvius and Record Keeper, are all about unfiltered pixels.
But anyways yeah I might finally try and complete FFIII now.
I absolutely LOVE Octopath Traveler. That has fantastic pixel art. It's the best pixel art they've done in years. If you're going to make it 3d (which you shouldn't) then it should look amazing. Otherwise, just keep it to 2d pixel art.
I need FFIV The Complete Collection, and the Anniversary Editions of FFI and II to come to Steam and modern consoles like yesterday.
Here's a much better example of what's wrong with FF VI on Steam. It's actually FF V, but a lot of the problems carry over.
Even if the art didn't have the awful blur and seams between the tiles, it would still look like someone's first attempt using RPG maker, just grabbing sprites from wherever without regard for consistency or quality.

People love to use this one example, but honestly -- hot take here -- the mobile version of FFV is my favorite. The colorful graphical style fits FFV's more whimsical tone perfectly (for all the same reasons that it clashes terribly with FFVI), the battle animations are nice, and it's definitive in content and QoL.
One of the few I've beaten. It's a really good game. Classes and party composition are pretty much the only thing you need to worry about. There are like two cheap spots but that's not really a problem unless you're playing blind and without Google. I liked tanking with a Viking with two shields equipped.
I'd much rather the 3D compared to what they did to FFV and VI
Anyway, reading some of the responses here, I do remember the final dungeon being long af, but I wasn't aware the final boss was considered that tough, I'm pretty sure I destroyed them and I was like 14 at the time, think my party was Ninja, Magus, Devout, Geomancer, Ninja did mad damage with Throw lol
I'd go through it again for trophies honestly. I like this version of it a lot.
just buy a cheap laptop or something. Its a 6 years old game and doesn't require high end pc, shouldn't break any bank
