It's a shame, in a way

[Levian]

I'd be more interested in seeing an extended FFVI, since the odds of the remake even comparing to the original FFVI is slim to none. But I suppose I will get to see an extended FFVI soon enough, on GBA.

mmm ffvi on ps3 would be astounding. Every FMV in the cutscene would be just like the real game, in real time, only EVEN BETTER LOOKING. christ. yes, remake it. I want God Kefka in 3dimensions DESTROYING THE WORLD.

You know, I was thinking about what a beautiful game Final Fantasy VI is. The character design is top-notch, the music is breathtaking, the atmosphere is amazing, and all of this from a SNES game. That got me thinking about how beautiful it would have been, had it been made as a PS2 or PS3 game. Now, I'm not asking for a remake or a movie or anything, because I'm sure they'd just mess it up. But I can't help but think about how much missed potential the game has as it is right now.

*get's lost in thought again*

Phillistine!

[boys from the dwarf]

id prefer a remake with the same graphics. the 3D stuff, i just cant imagine it working for FF6.

[bipper]

yeah, you gotta be shhhhh.....
I recall several like projects all getting flushed. Though, with a game company that takes systems, abuses them, and moves on to something else, effectivly property whoring, I despise the fact that they retain any intellectual rights.

To be fair an IP is as much property as a song/album or a film franchise. You wouldn't expect someone to bring out a new Robocop movie without first gaining the rights to it first (not that another Robocop movie would bring in any box office). So these unauthorised fan recreations are about on the same level. As has been proved with the PSX/GBA/DS re-releases of FF's 1-6, a company can still make money from an apparently dead IP. So it's not far to accuse any company of "property whoring", since it's just in their best interests to fully utilise their company assets. You don't have to like it, but that doesn't mean it's inherantly wrong.

Yeah, but simply destroying fandoms because they get too much pr and so on. That is despictable. Along with the fact that they trade mark a different battle system per game, and basically claim IP to every godamn thing they can. This is IP whoring.

I have mixed feelings about this..

I guess it's because I've already played the one I love and can't imagine it never existing. But if FFVI had -never- came out, and then later on they made it for the ps2, -nothing changed what-so-ever other than graphics AND -MAYBE- the music with actual orchestras. I may agree, but the thing is, what FFVI is, is what it's suppose to be, I don't believe that they could pull it off as a 3D game like it was pulled off as a 2D. I think i'd prolly be beautiful, but I don't think it'd have the substance like the real FFVI has.

I agree completely. In fact, I don't think I could say it any better than you did, so let's just leave it at that.

See, and that's actually one of the things I'm WORRIED about if they remake it. I just don't think they can give the sequence the justice if deserves if they do it all in 3D instead of just having the destruction of the airship and then skipping a year ahead. I think it would be kill to see but........how do I say this?........I think it would kind of lack something if they actually showed Kefka ascending to godhood in 3D, or in the process of destroying the world as Christmas stated. To me, the fact that you find out slightly after Celes regains consciousness that Kefka won and has had dominion over the world for a year, and then going out and exploring and seeing the devastation for yourself as you go further and further into the game, does a lot more than just flat out showing Kefka destroying it, in my opinion.

But hey, at least we know that, with the GBA remake, we can look forward to seeing a brand spankin' new script by the guy who scripted Star Ocean 3!

i never said add in something to show that transition. I just think seeing God Kefka at the end all in 3-d would be phenomenol.
not to mention seeing kefka throw Gestahl off the Floating Continent in 3-d would be amazing. I mean, let's be honest, him getting stabbed, him throwing people, him destroying thamasa, him light of judgementing everyone, watching the world fall apart because shadow moves the statues... it'd be SWEET!

Let me clarify: I didn't say you said to add something in. I meant that I just don't think they could do justice to 3-D Kefka, which you did suggest, and then stated that I didn't think they would do all that great a job with Kefka destroying the world like Christmas suggested.
