FFVI is pretty good. Unfortunately I wasn't able to play it when it first came out (being in Australia and all), so I guess I don't have that attachement to it like a lot of you guys do.

Unless you're trying to imply Zozo pushed this game into a transcendent state beyond that of which games are capable, you are wrong.Originally Posted by Pike
Fixed that for you
Zozo was the worst part of the entire game. Worse than the Water Temple in OoT and worse than Wailing Caverns in WoW.Unless you're trying to imply Zozo pushed this game into a transcendent state beyond that of which games are capable, you are wrong.Fixed that for you
...at least, that's how I remember it. It's actually been years since I've played this game. I just remember getting unusually frustrated during that part.
Zozo was pretty bad, but I don't think it was WC bad.

Zozo was alright once you get past the fact that there are enemies trying to rape you while you're in a town. The clock pissed me off to no end though.
You know, you're right. I can't think of anything else in vidya that is WC bad.
I solved the clock with a friend by simply selecting every possible combination till I found the one that works. Simple trial and error. Took forever, but shiny new chainsaw of death yay
How could doing it that way not embitter you against the quest for the rest of your life?

I did the same thing and it annoyed me to no end.I solved the clock with a friend by simply selecting every possible combination till I found the one that works. Simple trial and error. Took forever, but shiny new chainsaw of death yay
I think FF6 is an awesome game, not the best of all times, but ranks very high. It is without a doubt the best in the FF series and that makes me wonder what the hell is Square waiting to do a remake of this game?!!!
On the contrary, we felt that we had solved the puzzle in the most intelligent way we could, and were proud of ourselves.
Now, figuring out how to kill an Intangir was a bit more of a chore. That stopped me dead in my tracks until a few weeks later when I got the strategy guide.
And by the way, Final Fantasy VI isn't the best game ever because of Zozo, or the Opera Scene, or the music, or the gameplay, or Kefka's Tower, or anything else besides the Solitary Island.
I say so because I am still alive because of the Solitary Island.

Brofist, this game helped me get through some really tough times in my life as well.On the contrary, we felt that we had solved the puzzle in the most intelligent way we could, and were proud of ourselves.

gawd way to make me tear up guys
VI gets so much praise but why do I have no urge at all to play it? I watched the first 5 hours of gameplay on youtube and didn't see anyting I liked. On the other hand I watched the first 20 minutes of Chrono Trigger on youtube and was amazed by the game and wanted to play it. Why is Kefka so hyped? Son of a submariner? Welcome to my barbeque? Clean the dust off my boots? Do you have to be 8 years old to find that funny? And the battles. They might as well be text based because there is no animations. The final boss Kefka might as well be a lifeless painting because it just sits there. Its so easy to hype up a game like VI because nobody has hardly played it and so many of it's faults are forgiven because of hte hardware it was on or because of when it was made (94). So you can say "Final Fantasy VI was the best ever" And what are people going to do? Try and bash a 16 bit game that only an inner circle of nerds know and rave about?
Clowd, I must confess that I don't quite grok this "no one has played FF VI" idea you seem to have; sure you'd be hard pressed to find any of today's CoD/Xbox Live kiddies who have played it, but then, you'd be hard pressed to find any of them that have played any Final Fantasy, particularly anything pre-XII.
Among real game aficionados FF VI is very highly regarded and the fanbase is large enough that we come full circle and you get the hipsters who say they liked IV (or something) better because "you've probably never heard of it".
(No offense meant to anyone who genuinely likes the pre-VI FFs more than VI; I'm poking fun at hipsters here. That's always acceptable, right?)
As to the idea that graphics/hardware make or break a game: I'm not going to get into that in this thread because then I won't shut up, and that's bad.
It's the music.
