I'll also be skimming over story segments, summarizing them rather than showing all the dialogue like I usually do. boss attacks and whatever surprises the hack has, talk about characters and stuff in the hack's Readme/Printme files is fine). Thus, feel free to spoil stuff from the original game, though I ask no spoilers from the ROM hack (i.e. This LP assumes the reader has played the original game before. That said, I'll be making extensive use of the included Printme file, which includes charts of all the equipment, magic, and enemies, and I'll be sure to point out any significant differences I come across (as most of the changes are relatively minor). Though I've played through the original a few times, I'm doing this hack blind. * Enemies are tougher so that the rebalanced stuff doesn't simply give you yet another way to steamroll through an easy game. Many pieces of weapons and armor give side-boosts so that there's more to buying stuff than simply getting the most expensive stuff. Only certain characters can get access to stuff like X-Magic and the Offering. Dual-wielding and two-handed are now weapon properties rather than given to you by relics.

* Weapons, armor, and relics have been overhauled to give certain bonuses. Also, espers themselves are overhauled, each only teaching up to three spells and giving larger stat boosts. Kirin, for instance, can only be equipped by Locke and Cyan. * Certain espers can only be equipped by certain characters. Locke is a speed demon with some curing magic, Cyan is now a physical juggernaut, Sabin can focus on Vigor to do damage or Stamina to heal with his Blitzes, and Mog can go between a dancer, a mage, and a dragoon depending on where you focus on him.

* Characters have been overhauled and rebalanced to fill more specific roles. Now, rather than being interchangable Ultima machines, each character has their own strengths and weaknesses to fill a certain niche in each party. Everything, from text to equipment to monsters to the stats themselves have been changed to keep the spirit of the game while making it so the game itself isn't so damn easy. Note that this Let's Play covers version 1.30, so things brought up in this Let's Play may have changed.įinal Fantasy VI: Brave New World is a ROM hack that completely overhauls the original game.
