Edit: It did take me two tries though with the first using most of my cups before an unlucky MEGATON BELLYFLOP hit all of my characters at once

It really is a huge disappointment, because there's so much potential in the weapon/spell system to make it modern and fun.

I will defend the SoM remake and say that it’s much more fun to play than the original because it’s way less janky. Hit boxes make sense, you can set a couple of shortcuts for spells, the graphics are nice. But it’s essentially the same game. The voice acting is cute and the extra inn scenes add some depth to the characters which is nice. There’s also a lot more world-building. But yeah they didn’t do nearly enough to update it, Trials of Mana is a huge upgrade.

The only down side I see in the trials remake versus the original is the lack of multiplayer, and while multiplayer SNES Trials is fun I cannot say I miss it immensely.

For as annoying as her voice and written dialogue is, Charlotte definitely makes up for it with that giant rear end grin she gets. It's great at the end of her Dark 4 CS.

Alright I found a slightly annoying glitch that gives me another reason not to want Riesz in my party. At least with Hawkeye, but I suspect it can happen to other characters that are move spammy like Angela. If you are holding R and spamming his moves, if Riesz decides to use a summon, the move menu gets canceled and you get "stuck" for a bit. It's not long but it can screw you up when you are trying to time a dodge for an attack.

I know usually SK3 means Suikoden 3 for most people but it still works because of context. Bruceski posted:Huh. After finding my way through the Jungle of Visions maze randomly I looked up how to do it and I did exactly that on a whim. Yea the statue got me to do that too. It's weird, I have really strong memories of some parts of the game from when I played SK3 but absolutely nothing at all for other bits. I remember the last boss of Kevin's story but I don't remember the jungle at all for example.

I spent a solid 50 hours playing this game and have all the achievements and I must say this is the first time in a long time that I bought a video game and felt completely happy with my purchase. I’d recommend it to everyone: children, adults, non-gamer types. It’s a children’s storybook that is straight up fun, charming, gorgeous and not too demanding on the player but is open to power gaming. If this and FF7R is what SE does for remakes/remasters from now on they’re gonna make so much loving money. Secret of Mana in this engine would be fantastic. poo poo, a Final Fantasy game in this engine would be fantastic.

The only downside I can see to making secret of mana in this engine is that you couldn't do local co-op and (at least for me) that was a big part of the original game.

Mainly because if you fix all of them the game becomes an incomprehensible mess of features.

orcane posted:Someone made this: Surprisingly, the classic "In a maze, always go left" works. If you follow that route, it takes you through almost every platform, and past the start once. You can shorten it a lot if you go right once, then always left instead. Both routes also take you to the chest. It's actually somewhat cleverly designed, for a teleporter maze anyways, since they bothered making the classic non-teleport maze solving tricks work in a teleporter maze, instead of making doing that cause you to get stuck in a loop or something.

They put a huge rabite statue in the first room with NPCs saying "What's this statue all about? Seems important. Anyway I'm lost in a maze". Not sure how you could miss the hint. Although that part is infamous to me for how badly handled it was in the OG, so I was already anticipating it. In the OG they didn't even tell you anything at that part. You just had to arbitrarily choose paths and if you chose correctly, you'd hear a noise. Good luck if you were playing without sound.

I'd much rather they take a swing at FF VI first. CT at least you can't really go wrong with any version of the game currently existing (at least now that the Steam and Mobile versions have been patched into equity) Meenwhile, in FFVI town... -The SNES release is a famously buggy, mechanically explosive version that has several features not functioning properly or just not functional at all. Reminds a LOT of SD3 SNES while we're at it. -The GBA version fixed several bugs and added back in some cut content, but added some fresh bugs of it's own and filters VI's phenomenal music through a tin can and string. -The iOS version gives us the best sounding version and is by far the most actually playable of these but outside of the enemy sprites the changed artwork is bland at best and just ugly and sloppy... far more often then it's at it's best. I understand it'll never see a big splashy remake but SD3 gives me hope it'll get at least a decent once-over into finally having a definitive edition instead of forcing me to pick what sacrifices I wanna make for my next playthrough.

As much as I like FF7 Remake, I don't really have any desire to see other games in the series get the same treatment. FF16 would never see the light of day if they did that and I'd be 90 years old waiting for Part 3 of FF9. FF6 would benefit from the SD3 treatment, staying pretty faithful, maintaining more or less the same level of scale, but polishing up the gameplay to be more balanced and playable by today's standards. Maybe add some more character interactions since the party gets pretty quiet in the second half of the game.

ARPG remakes of Chrono Trigger and FF6 would probably be pretty divisive I'm probably in the minority but I don't think Chrono Trigger needs to be remade. Especially since they'll jam in even more Chrono Cross bullshit that nobody asked for.

I actively don't want a Chrono Trigger remake. Thing is, it holds up amazingly well, probably due to just how well-paced the whole experience is, and how expressive its late-SNES sprite work is. And there's nothing about its story that I think would be improved or expressed better through HD cutscenes with cinematic camera angles and voice acting. There's nothing archaic about its gameplay design, either. It doesn't have random encounters and in fact doesn't have a transition to a battle screen at all. Its combat is easy to understand but has enough options to make it interesting to play around with. The dialogue, characters, and even random enemies have a ton of personality. Really I don't think there's anything in Chrono Trigger that would make a modern player bounce off that a remake could possibly "fix," if that makes sense.

It's one thing to create one (1) game with a deliberately retro aesthetic as a call-back to that period, but an FF6 remake should have inherent appeal and stand alone independently of the original, not be an explicit evocation of that one summer when I played this game as a carefree twelve year old kid with a bright and boundless future instead of a miserable bearded shut-in in his mid-30s living in neoliberal hell world. Or whatever.

One of the things that I like the most about FF6 is the art style of its world and characters, so I think it would be cool to see them use modern hardware to fully realize Amano's vision of weirdo machines, baroque architecture and everyone having 20000 trinkets on their clothes. On the other hand, I also don't think Square understands why FF6 is good. They'd probably make Cid dying mandatory.
