Final Fantasy Remakes

Why were there not more Final Fantasy remakes in the DS era, or even the 3ds? The Dragon quest remakes all did great, with 5 remakes between the two consoles, while FF only got 4 and 5. Both great games, so why no remake the original games, an especially why not give 6 that treatment? FF6 in the style of FF4 ds sounds likes easy money

    FF6 is too important for that but FF5 could have used a 3ds remake at least
    Now with 7 they already said they are planning to remake 10, 9 and 6 (8gays forever suffering)

      There won't be Bravely Default if that happens

      Obviously in a perfect world there'd be time and money for both, but in retrospect spiritual successors with new ideas are better than remaking games that are fine as is. Speaking of, is picrel any good?

        I heard it's one of the hardest games in the series, but I've only gotten past the first dungeon, so I can't really say anything. The combat is fairly simple and I haven't had any problems with the difficulty so far

        It has a few problems.
        >you need to use the wiki in order to not miss 75% of the content which is "crouch in that angle holding the red crystal and a typhoon will take you elsewhere" levels of bullshit
        >unless you minmax carefully you do 6 hp damage and the bosses are 160.000 hp hpsponges, including the early game ones
        >you need to spend 60% of the game grinding
        >if i remember correctly there's some stuff you lose permanently if you miss it

        i haven't got very far, so i can't say too much, but the battle system feels like an early stab at what the bravely default battle system would become. early on in the game you are definitely presented with choices that you have no way of knowing or determining which is the way you want to go and it feels kind of bad for that. i love the art style, though, and keep thinking about going back for that alone.

      The cutscenes in 4ds rule, capture the snes games as well as you possibly could with voice action. The Bridge scene with Kain and Cecil leaving the castle is my favorite

      I've only played the SNES version years ago.
      Might give it a shot soon

        I hope you like it anon. FYI it ups the difficulty quite a bit from the snes version, not to an insane degree but you may want to look up an augment guide when you play, as many character abilities are missable if you dont know where to look for them, and can make the endgame bosses less fun

          Can I just overlevel a bit? I'd prefer going blind

            Definitely, thats what I did since I didnt know about the system going into it, it took a couple extra hours at the end but it was fine. I just think you may have more fun having more abilities. I'll put it in spoilers in case you don't want to see anything but to get them its as simple as giving augments to characters before they leave the party to unlock new ones. I think the big ones like dualcast, doublecast, and phoenix are from giving the twins 3 augments and fusoyah 2.

    I'm aware of 4 DS. By 5, did you mean 3?

      Yeah, that was me being a dumbass, I was thinking of this and the 3 remake with art by the bravely default guy.

      FF6 is too important for that but FF5 could have used a 3ds remake at least
      Now with 7 they already said they are planning to remake 10, 9 and 6 (8gays forever suffering)

      >Now with 7 they already said they are planning to remake 10, 9 and 6 (8gays forever suffering)
      Thats such a different thing though, I'm sure those remakes will be cool if they happen but the ds remakes sat in the happy middle of feeling like an upgrade but without losing too much of the charm or identity of the original.

        I agree, they shouldnt have stopped at 4, I expected 5 for ds/3ds at least

    What's the consensus on 3 DS?

      I fricking love it, but I'm a bravely default-gay, plus I went straight from Dawn of Souls on the gba to it so I'm super biased. Opening is undeniably kino https://youtu.be/ek8jEw4N6gI?si=TcqGkGcsuQBSN-Yu

    FFIV is easily my favorite FF, I could replay it back to back to the end of time and never get bored. I wish it got a high quality remake but only graphically, I'd keep everything else the same.

    Because you don't realize that PSP FF games are remakes as well. They've remade 1-4 on PSP and DS

    They need to remake VI, VIII, IX and X.

    All "Classic Run, highest point of the franchise" (VI, VII, VIII, IX and X) need remakes.

    Why did Nobuo stop composing for FF?
    I am not interested in FF series after he left.
    Without his music, these games have lost soul.
    Series after X just look like goyslop now.
    FFXIII had like one good track only.
    FFXV had like two.
    But with Nobuo, 70% of tracks were bangers.
    Why did he have to leave ;_;

    One of the producers for 3 and 4 DS mentioned that they wanted to do 5 and 6 but the DS at the time wouldn't be able to handle that kind of remake. As for why they never bothered again on the 3DS is a mystery.
