go rimbaud
this party is maria's now bitches let's gooooooooooooo


go rimbaud
i don't know what happened, probably a bug

go rimbaud
got on the boat as firion, got off and now i'm maria

go rimbaud
one thing i want to talk about this remaster is they put in these bars to let you see your progress as you level up weapon skills, but they've been mostly useless for me


go rimbaud
because they are always empty

go rimbaud
probably means i've overleveled my skills and am not getting any levels for them in almost all the fights i'm doing

go rimbaud
it is probably time to turn off the 4x boost

go rimbaud
anyway you have to take a screenshot of the famous line


go rimbaud
and also best girl joining you after trying to rob you didn't work


go rimbaud
scene with the lamia queen did force firion back out, but once the party came back together maria was still leader

go rimbaud
i guess this may just be the game from now on

joker
ah man been forever since I played this one

joker
Guy pls

go rimbaud
this is actually my first time!

joker
have fun! I barely remember the plot but I do remember something bad happens to like all the guest party members lol

go rimbaud
except gordon, gordon seems to come out okay

go rimbaud
i do think this one might suffer the most from lacking material added in later versions though, since i love the idea of soul of rebirth

go rimbaud
where the game has a whole epilogue about all your dead friends go to heaven and killing the emperor again

go rimbaud
i figured it out, it's a feature not a bug

go rimbaud
you can change your party leader with the l/r triggers

go rimbaud
i have been grinding out maria's magic levels to power up ultima, but one ultima x just killed an iron giant, and my bestiary's all full, so i think it might be time to just go kill hell matty

go rimbaud
they really should have put more of a drop shadow on that closing text, it's barely readable against parts of the background

go rimbaud
real day one shit

go rimbaud
now that i'm done i regret even more that soul of rebirth wasn't included

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Yeah, I actually decided to play the GBA remakes of 5 and 6 instead of going for the pixel remakes.

go rimbaud
i still have the old steam versions of those

go rimbaud
and while the ui really put me off vi, my only problem with that version of v is faris' job outfits are too feminine

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Yeah, I went back and forth with FF5 so I'll probably play both versions.

go rimbaud
i have a save that's pretty far on old steam v, really oughtta finish it sometime

go rimbaud
i did buy pixel remaster vi for switch just to see the way they redid the opera

go rimbaud
but i played ii first because i never really have

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Fair, yeah.

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
I'm probably going to mod the shit out of pixel FF5 if I go down that path for obvious reasons.

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Font.

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Maybe someone redoes Faris' outfits so they're less feminine.

go rimbaud
actually ii may technically be the second final fantasy i ever played, since my older brother had a rom and it immediately got my attention because i was thoroughly vii-brained at the time

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Oh huh.

go rimbaud
but he didn't have a translation patch so i stopped pretty quick and went to play a boy and his blob instead

ɢʀᴇᴅʟɪɴ🧋
Fair, that was me with FF4 uncensored.

go rimbaud
and yeah if there is a mod for old steam v that makes faris' outfits more like the original i might look into that

go rimbaud
otherwise, it's fine, it was a port that got way more flak than it deserved

go rimbaud
just because people hated the new dimensions-style sprites

go rimbaud
the worst part of snes v were the little walking sprites so the new ones didn't bother me

go rimbaud
like the whole game felt like it had grown a lot over iv, but they still had the tiny walking sprites

go rimbaud
maybe vi just spoiled me on that front

go rimbaud
v did have a lot of new animation to kind of make up for the little sprites, but they also just made the little sprites feel more like a growing pain

go rimbaud
vi really out here being the only snes ff to look like a snes game

go rimbaud
poking around on iv, this is for sure the best track in the remastered ost
