Which translation patch should I use for SNES version?
The 90's RPGe one is accurate to the Japanese script, but boring. The new one on GBA and future versions is wacky like a Saturday morning cartoon, but as a result is very different.
FF5

Always go with the wackiest translation for FF.
You'll miss such gems as "son of a submariner" while, what are you really missing otherwise?
The plot? what plot?
>The plot? what plot?
I'll have you know that edward being spoony is a critical element of the first act of FFIV and more 'serious' translations entirely fail to capture the development of his character
you spoony bard.
That's what I was thinking. But on the other hand, some of the humor is just really bad from what I've seen in videos.
that's part of the charm
Peak Wacky would be PS1 Translations.
It's the one where Faris has a pirate accent, Karlabos=Karl Boss, Wyvern=YBurn.
A lil' wacky is GBA, aka most recent official translation which I think the pixel remasters used. Like TMNT reference during Guido+Exdeath fight.
RPGe is least wacky.
It's my fav, but yeah sure, a bit boring.
Dejap is the same basically.
You play pixel remaster instead, the best version of all 6 games.
I would agree with you if it didn't have awful stuttering when you walk/run. It almost makes it feel like 30fps.
Pixel Remaster does a lot of things well but has some stuff that really gets under my skin. The speech bubbles over NPC's heads and the minimap really should be optional.
Nah. I can wait for them to get the Octopath treatment and then I'll mod the game to remove the DoF and blur filters
the RPGe translation because experiencing it the way I did is obviously the best way
I played this game on PlayStation and enjoyed the cheesy translation aside from their decision to call Exdeath "X-Death," but even that is kinda endearing.
GBA script is the way to go.
Heh heh.
None. If you don't know Japanese by now you have only yourself to blame.
While we're here, what's the better translation of FF6? SNES or GBA?
SNES but GBA has some fun bonuses.
> GBA has hours and hours of endless grinding
How is this fun if you don't have autism?
if you're not autistic why are you even playing JRPGs in the first place
If you didn't spend hours wandering the Veldt to complete the Rage list or hours fighting dinosaurs or wandering up and down the tower to grind Espers you don't deserve to say you played FFVI.
How does GBA have grinding but not SNES, they are the same game.
they upped the difficulty for all the ff games on gba
They did the opposite actually.
I can only speak for 1,2,4,5, but all of those were definitely harder. The wall in 4 advance one shots you way more easier, for example. Also Golbez.
>1,2
objectively not for some moronic reasons (removing spell charges) and some good reasons (fixing bugs)
>4
4 was easier. You only think it was harder because you only played "Final Fantasy II" on the SNES.
>5
5 was made easier
>1
Early game NES is hard as nails, easy as cake later. The reverse is true for Advance
>2
On second thought, I don't care. This game sucks.
>4
>because you only played "Final Fantasy II" on the SNES.
This is correct. I didn't think about the JP version, nor have I played it. I'll yield this point.
>5
It's been a long time since I played the SNES translation, but I COASTED through that version. Advance's Gilgamesh and final boss were way harder in my experience. Are you going to say the old translation patch also reduced the difficulty somehow?
>Early game NES is hard as nails, easy as cake later. The reverse is true for Advance
No it's not, Advance snowballs even harder than NES because you have a bunch of tools that were nonfuntional in the NES version like Temper and Haste and Black Mage functions.
>On second thought, I don't care. This game sucks.
True
>This is correct. I didn't think about the JP version, nor have I played it. I'll yield this point.
The JP version is basically the Advance version except everything hits even harder. Spellcasting takes a lot longer too so Cagnazzo is actually a threat (or whatever boss it was that used reflect when you had Tellah)
>It's been a long time since I played the SNES translation, but I COASTED through that version.
The only part of the GBA version that's different is that some bosses in the early game are a little less overtuned and the postgame content (which is generally harder than the base game but also optional), there's no other differences otherwise.
>GBA and future versions is wacky like a Saturday morning cartoon
I also don't understand this sentiment and feel like it is parroted by people who haven't seen what an ACTUAL "Saturday Morning Cartoon" script looks like. FFV is extremely restrained.
Are you autistic? There's nothing interesting here
Why are you posting this crap?!

Working Designs were the best loc outfit of their time, and are infinitely preferable to the modern troonslator crowd we love to hate today.
Working Designs took the approach of writing things that were entertaining and worth seeing first and foremost. Today's translators put garbage in that NO ONE wants to see.
t. the troony that clapped at pic related
These are like the most tame out of WD's many many script changes.
Let's be honest, people play the old Final Fantasy for the gameplay, not the plot. You could play the game in japanese with translated menus, look up the plot when you are done and wouldn't miss anything important.
Hell, even FFVI with its "rich" story is carried by Kefka, who was flanderized in the english translation.
Kefka is just some dolar store Joker from Batman.
Color me surprise when weaboos thinks Kefka is the peak of writing.
I haven't played a single JRPG in my entire life that had a compelling plot.
unless you wanna do an asspull and say everything was metaphorical.
I play these types of games for the vibes mostly.
I don't even particularly enjoy turn-based combat, but there's something about 3rd and 4th gen JRPGs that are still comfy to me
Everyone says the FF6 translation is better on SNES because of the quirky Woolsey one-liners, but can anyone give examples? Besides "son of a submariner"
Why do you keep making this same thread over and over again?
>The 90's RPGe one is accurate to the Japanese script
No it's not it completely removes a bunch of the jokes. Even the GBA versions are more accurate.
Proof?
>using translation patches
Why are pedos like this?
Holy shit are you still making these threads?
You lost the game, Arrest yourself and go to bed.
