My dude with the Xenogears shout-out.

Personally I'd love a visual remaster for Brave Fencer Musashi.

Give me Chrono Trigger, Square Enix. Give me it NOW

This version launched in a pretty rough spot, but it's pretty good now. Short of playing the original on SNES hardware, I'd dare say that this is the best way to play the game these days.

For me, the best way to play so far is the Nintendo DS version. Putting all the menus and most UI elements on one screen really allows you to fully appreciate the art on the other. In fact, even playing on an emulator, I prefer the DS version. I haven't played the Steam release, but is it really any different from emulating the SNES original?

I, too, would love to play Xenogears!

If we could somehow get a collab between Namco and Square-Enix to make the missing Episode 4 that connects Xenosaga and Xenogears, that would be sweet, too. But I know better than to hope for that.

There is a fan-made set of texture packs for the emulated Xenogears game here, if that helps scratch an itch.

Very cool! Thank you for sharing this! ^_^

I don't play FF but I listen to the soundtracks. If they release new OSTs that sound like they were made in the past 7 years I will be in heaven.

[-] Ultragramps@nerdbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Pretty sure the soundtracks received an upgrade, too. Here is a nice Fan Made synopsis of FFVI to Terra's Theme.

ohhhhhhhhhhhh and SIX of them are this way? wow I have some listening to do.

Also I need a better way of finding OSTs, normally I rely on PressA's lists each year and recs from friends, and that's a lot of holes for something like this to fall through.

That’s how you make a remaster :). I have not bought them yet because I don’t plan to replay those master pieces yet, but I am happy such remasters exist :).

[-] MoogleMaestro@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I do wish that some of the "extra content" from other versions made it into the game in some capacity, even if it was relegated to a separate mode. I know that FFV and FFVI have some bonus extra dungeons on the GBA version that would be nice to have even as an optional configuration.
