I keep his theme playing in my house in FFXIV. When I was a young adult, I really liked Edgar and Sabin (and not just because one of my best friends was named Sabin and always got asked Like from Final Fantasy?Īnd as an adult, Cyan might have taken over the top slot for my favorite.

Though let’s be honest here, if we got a Final Fantasy VI remaster on Switch, every one of us would buy it and Square Enix would be printing money. But we don’t want just another rushed remaster, either. No, we don’t want it changing too much from the original. It doesn’t even have to be a full 3D overhaul like FF7R. It’s just a straight-up good game, and it deserves a remake. There’s no debate about its quality (outside of its mobile versions, which we’ll get to). But there is rarely a FF game that just gets solid marks from just about everyone. There might be some who aren’t the biggest fans of the game or its story or even think it’s overhyped. Each and every entry has something going for it and against it in some fan’s minds.īut in general, FFVI is just considered good. Everyone has their own favorites (mine is FFIX), and their least favorites (mine is FFXII). Our very own Data Error wrote about the Final Fantasy series’ inconsistency and identity crisis.


If you haven’t already, check the rest of the Project FFVI Remake stuff out.īut why do we need a FF6 remake RIGHT NOW? Glad you asked. I had thought about this idea before, but when I started doing the research I had found that the folks over at SwitchRPG have put together an absolutely stunning gallery of what a Final Fantasy VI remake could look like using the Octopath Traveler engine.

Now, at 37, I want to go all in on a Final Fantasy 6 remake. I was 11 years old, and I was all in on Espers, magitek, and fenix downs. When I was a kid, I probably rented Final Fantasy VI for the SNES (back when it was Final Fantasy III in America) more times than any game except for Chrono Trigger.
