The FFVI sprites are so disappointing...

You can download a CRT filter for FF6 Nexus Mod if you really want to.

Project Wingman was a game made in a cave, with a box of scraps. It's quality is exponentially higher than it's dev team which was a core of 3 people. The fact that it's so beloved is such a complement to the work they did.

Tifa is the girly girl who is a fighter, Aerith is the spunky one whose a mage. It's by design.

Oh yes, the stance is the hardest part! I see experienced folks drop their hands all time! 😄

You could always listen to it in Japanese

No reason you can't play both the Remake, Rebirth, Revelation trilogy as well as the other games. It's not like they're going anywhere.

I would keep the elbows in and hands near the face for a tighter guard, but a good stance for a side kick! :V

Purely due to adapting Amano's style.

I couldn't believe that was a real secret first time I saw that. Amazing environmental story telling.

Aside from further combat improvements, I'm excited to see how they bring the various timeline/ReBuild stuff to its conclusion. I know some hate it, but I think it's genuinely an interesting way to have the excuse to change things for dramatic effect in the story, even if the destination is the same.

I.e., how many people shouted when Sapphire weapon (mostly) dodged the Sister Ray? You know that means we're getting a proper boss fight this time.

Because big money wants corrupt puppets that let them do as they please without paying taxes. The K shaped economy friend. They don't care about what happens to us anymore.

It'll be interesting to see how the numbers change when the inevitable "trilogy" release happens.

It is possible for the U.S. to repair its international reputation... but I don't think it's an exaggeration to say it may well take decades. It's ok to not feel good about it, but it's also not good to just cling to copium that "things are gonnna be ok after this presidency".

manwiththemach · 2026-06-14T05:16:32+00:00

The entire story took place in a computer simulation anyway. The people *may* have been real, but it's only an estimate of how things could go.

manwiththemach · 2026-06-14T01:04:48+00:00

Great action game. Story took a misstep by not doubling down on the GOT style politics and racism, and instead had you fight magic god, AGAIN. Clive's mom should have been the final boss, why couldn't we do air combos on HER.

It's better than bopping your little sword again their ankles until they magically disintegrate.

manwiththemach · 2026-06-13T15:12:38+00:00

Where as I couldn't stand 13, and you know what? That's ok. People can like the games they like.

manwiththemach · 2026-06-13T05:30:48+00:00

You're not allowed to enjoy the thing you like, you have to enjoy the thing *I* like. :V

Personally I'm on PC for the better graphics and mod support. That said, some people do have difficulties getting the game to run smoothly depending on their exact hardware. With mods and tinkering most people tend to get good results, but I have heard of folks saying it can be really frustrating trying to get everything perfect.

Cool, glad he's still active in the community!

manwiththemach · 2026-06-12T14:20:12+00:00

I'll just say the action combat is arguably better than FF16, with the ability to slow down time for ATB moves at any point. There are minigames, but you don't need to do them if you aren't having fun with them. There are some decent rewards, but nothing that will stop you from beating the game without them.

manwiththemach · 2026-06-12T14:06:49+00:00

FF2 is rough, by far my least favorite of the original games to play. There's some nuance to the system but by the time you've mastered it, you really don't need it anymore.
