I was a huge fan of FFIV on SNES growing up and thought the 3D remake on the DS was excellent. And like you said, the voice acting was top notch. It is a shame that FFVI is not getting the same 3D treatment and it would have been interesting to have voice acting for the wide variety of characters.
BTW S-E games are insanely expensive on mobile and I'll continue ignoring them
At least it probably won't be as expensive as DQ8 mobile (2500 yen).

Not like this, SE. Not like this.
At least they put effort into the text boxes. They look nice.
Man, if you're going to do a retread of a classic, for gods sake, commit to it.
At this stage, I wouldn't even mind terribly if they outsourced a remake.
Emphasis on at this stage.

There's just no blue tint over the screen.
Thing is they do. Then they demanded much cheaper remakes from the same people I guess. It's a maddening situation all around.

don't get it pleaasssseee.
If you really wanna play FFVI, get the SNES version
if you don't have a SNES, get the GBA version.
Hell even the slowed down pos PSN version is more worthy

Ugh, I get what you mean. Really messed up situation.
I guess I was more leaning on the thought of a cheaper full blown remake.
Imagine it, the models taking an inspiration from Amano's original concepts and shader that takes cues from his watered down Acrylic overlays, complete with Baroque-influenced soundtrack.
The above is completely out of scope and completely irresponsible in terms of a profitable remake, but you know, in a naive and perfect world.

It looks better than a 3D remake, but at the same time Square is still relieving themself all over my precious memories of this game.
I don't know if this was a serious question or not, but it's from FF7.

Something tells me the sprite work for the final boss is going to be absolutely ruined.

And with that, Rufus takes the last vestiges of Square's greatness with him.
God. I was...I don't know. It looks better than FFV. But..I...I...I don't even know.

Can't wait until they reveal Lightning as a new playable character.

ITS TOTALLY NOT! I never played VI and bought that atrocity, its just too much to bare man, I played for 2 hours and after that all its worth is a pretty bubble on my vita screen, maybe its me being obsessive but the loading time to get to the menu was absolutely ridiculous.

If you're going to ruin FF6, FF7 should get similar treatment.
thought so I haven't played ffvii since I was 10 tho lol
while most people here are offended by the graphics, I think it looks alright to me. I don't see how much better they can get it to look as long as they stick to the original 2D style. What matters more to me is if they have tweaked the balance and gameplay enough so that it's not the snorefest like the original. Chances are slim I know but hey fingers crossed eh.
I was talking specifically about the cliff background. Everything looks worse in the phone version imo.
If you expect them to increase the difficulty at all, then the chances are indeed slim to none.

Fuck this company. Just release the old game instead of ruining the sprites.

Bravo Square-Enix! Take one of the greatest games you ever made, make it look like every generic RPG out there and slap a premium price to play with awful controls. That will take you back to the top...
Have they ever commented on why they don't do this? I mean, I assume it's cheaper and easier on android/ios but is that it?
at least it looks prettier than this rpgmarker monstrosity.
If Square actually took the time to make VI look pretty on iOS, i would not care at all, but with those shitty sprites, I'd rather play the PSN version of VI.
It's a disservice to the game the way they are treating it.

Well, if FF5 iOS was any indication, the enemy sprites should be high quality. They were easily the best part od the remake.
Yeah probably better off not keeping my hopes up. I loved what they did to the game in FF4 DS. Made the game so much more fun to actually play. Dammit is it too much to ask for the same treatment for another FF?
I wouldn't mind a 2D version of VII in this style.

Glad i have it on my Vita, cause that looks bad.
This looks a lot better than their ios version of FF5, but they've still fucked up the visuals so far.
That being said, I'd totally buy this if it launches at a reasonable price. Of course, it's Square Enix on ios, so it will be 2-3x a reasonable price, and I will continue to play this game on other platforms.

I still can't believe it took them this long to milk one of the most demanded FFs to be milked.

One customarily does not tolerate a loss of detail in character sprites when calling a refreshed product 'HD.'
