Deja Hill

Everyone seems to be saying the peninsula of power is in Dawn of Souls, but I never encountered any of the high-level mobs on my GBA version. I used the crap outta that spot on my NES copy though.

Subscribed! Really interesting videos. I'm 34, and I first played FF6 as a 7 or 8-year old. At the time, I didn't have the guts to get through Kefka's tower and face him. Years passed and I never sought to beat Kefka once and for all. It became a game "forgotten in the mists of time". But the characters always stuck with me... This morning Asia time, I finally finished FF6! It's been my "LOTR before I knew what LOTR was", and I'm really happy to see a vibrant community including creators like you The Returners' Hideout still talking about this masterpiece.

McLaughlin Well

As an absolute KH maniac I’ve wanted to get into FF so bad. It’s just so overwhelming and being an adult doesn’t give me much time to games during the week so I don’t wanna waste my time playing the wrong one 😭

I absolutely want a remake. The music alone is reason. That being said, I highly recommend checking out Daniel Tidwell's covers of the Dark King and Boss battle theme. Also, Anthony Moretto has some great covers as well

If you're a collector why not . If you just play it no 😂

Dropping knowledge at the hideout

A final fantasy mod where you can have six characters, albeit two of them will be in the back, but you can switch them out if you need to. They get unique abilities that can be essential. You also get to determine the sex and get different sprites between male and female counterparts for each class. Do know this means I am addressing each class as a he as that is the standard. With a fighter/warrior/knight, he becomes a Dragoon if put in the back, being able to jump and then fall back randomly. With Red Mage, he becomes a bard and can sing a random song from the back row randomly. With White Mage, he can use the prayer ability which has a random effect. This will occur randomly. With Black Mage, he becomes Geomancer in the back row, using a random geomancer ability, which also occurs randomly. With Black Belt/Monk, will jump (not like the fighter) but rather leap in front to do a dance like FF5 which is random before leaping back. Instead of using a knife, given you are unarmed, it a karate chop. With Thief/Ninja, he become a mime in the back row, able to repeat any previously used before he randomly attacks. The randomness will be set based on the agility of the character happens every two turns in retrospect of the character in a semi-standard ABT. You still have the turn style that you are used to but there is a semi-standard ABT behind the scenes in regards to your back row characters. This means they won't attack while you are setting up commands rather during the enemy's turn in relation to the enemy's speed will determine how often they will attack. It won't be that often, unless you have a thief in the back row. Do know there are certain disadvantages in having some characters in the back row. For the Knight, he will not auto cover fallen people in the front if he is in the back. Regardless of being a fighter or a knight, this character(s) will also have read ahead from FF5 which will make monster encounters less frequent especially as your level goes up when it comes to encounter lower level enemies. No impact on enemies of a higher level. For the Thief, you cannot surprise enemies as often if he is set in the back, while at the same time you don't get surprised or suffer from back attacks if he in the back row. You also cannot detect secret passages or disarm traps while in the back row. The same is true for pitfalls. For the Monk, you cannot use light step which helps you avoid damage from lava and poison tiles if he is in the back row. For the White Mage, Black Mage, and Red Mage, you lack Pharmacology, which makes healing items more effective if they are in the back row. It is the same for all three, there is no multiple double effect by having more mages, you just need one in the front row when you are using items. They also possess active abilities. For Fighter. He will have besides fight, the three abilities guard, lure and berserk. Berserk will make your fighter auto-attack until the end of battle or until defeated. When becoming a knight, the fighter gains basic white magic along with Bladeblitz, Bushido (which contains Mineuchi, Zeninage, Shirahadori and Iainuki), and Lancet. Bushido will require MP. For Thief he will have besides fight, the five abilities steal, mug, escape, aim, and flirt. When becoming a Ninja, he will gain basic black magic along with throw, ninjutsu (which contains image, smoke, mirage and shadowbind), mix (from the Chemist) and combine (from the Cannoneer). Difference between steal and mug, because why have both, steal allows you to steal any item that varies and with a chance of not taking anything depending on the speed of the enemy. Capture removed the chance of not stealing anything, but you can only take the most common item rather than the rarest, which means you are more likely to get something but it is less likely to be something you had wanted. For Monk, he will have besides fight, the three abilities focus, chakra, and kick. Upon becoming a master, he will also acquire blue magic, scan and control. For Red Mage, he will have besides fight, the three abilities white magic, black magic, and animals. Upon becoming a Red Wizard, he will have more black magic and red magic and also acquires Rapid Fire, Dualcast and Spellblade. For Black Mage, he will have besides fight, the three abilities black magic, bluff, and curse. Upon upgrading to Black Wizard, he gains more black magic along with the abilities oath, dark arts, and mystic arts. For White Mage, he will have besides fight, the three abilities white magic, bless, and cry. Upon upgrading to White Wizard, he gains more white magic along with the abilities condemn, predict, calm and release. You can catch a total number enemy monsters (not bosses) relative to your level divided by 10, so a maxed 50 (given 50 is max level) can catch a total of five enemies. You also gain access to bows, flails/whips, harps, lances, darts, and axes besides swords, katanas, knives, rods, hammers, and staffs. The ninja can equip anything while others are limited as deemed appropriate. You also have the option to equip claws or nun chucks on the monk which have their benefits and disbenefits. Claws typically have element or effect benefits, while the nun-chucks offer increase evasion and defense at the cost of attack potential since you cannot use them with focus or kick. So if you want your monk to fight more defensively, then equip some nun-chucks. This is in respect to Bruce Lee who used Nun-chucks when fighting a samurai with a katana. Do know they do not increase your attack strength and your ability to score a critical hit decreases, but it may be worth it depending on what enemy you fight.

100% honestly the only two times I ever grind in FF1 is to get to level 2 before fighting Garland, and enough to buy a couple Level 3 spells (Usually FIR2 and CUR2 or HEAL) right when I get to Elfheim. Basically after that I just go through the rest of the game the best I can while running the least amount of times I can, and I'm usually more or less fine. My party is usually something along the lines of Fighter, Black Belt, White Mage, Black Mage, with a Red Mage subbing in for basically any slot depending on how I'm feeling. If things get extremely dire, EXITing later dungeons just to heal and then beelining the first couple floors because chests are already looted will end up getting me a little "extra" EXP as I trek back to where I was. The key is to just not run from any battle unless you really can't afford to fight (e.g. you're about to die and just trying to get to town).

I go to is Warrior (Defense), Monk (Offense), Red Mage (Buffs and AoE for random encounters) and White Mage (Heals). Everything is smooth and easy I never use Thief due to how it's incredibly weak and in some versions it's Run feature doesn't even work, erasing it's benefit completely Also the Wizards get 8th level magic If you like challenge runs you should look up Sullla's playthroughs of 1 and 5, usually using Solo characters

I love the PR versions but have to admit I don’t think I’m a fan of how much of a Mariachi vibe they give off. I don’t know if there’s just too much emotion or human element in the trumpets or what, but it definitely feels like a different flavor. The themes definitely feel strongest when they play up that rock organ.

I enjoyed Warrior Monk Red Mage White Mage

It does seem like the crown would have been useful to have around but maybe the Returners felt it was an unethical and inhumane weapon even in their war against the empire.

Again 🤯

Yes ❤️

Great tips thanks 😎

Warrior Black Belt White Mage Black Mage

Not a Rat's "Tail", it's a "Rat's Tale" That's why it's different for every world, because the story's always different <3

I play the pixel remasters on phone. It is a little awkward but it is also convenient to jump in and play a little while if I’m stuck waiting somewhere.

Still ❤

Good quiz
