this is fantastic news, gau deserved a fix, ok?

any other examples of character fixes?

Morph is permanent until manually reverted or Terra dies. It increases both her damage dealt and damage taken; the penalty for incoming damage is reduced by raising Terra's stamina.

If successful, Steal doesn't consume Locke's turn. Instead of EVERY enemy having a stealable item and making the player want to rob everyone, only humanoid targets carry items. There are no missable theft-exclusive items.

Rather than Edgar's tools being heavily front-loaded and largely redundant (i.e. Drill vs. Chainsaw), they're mroe spread out with more diverse effects. Ditto for Blitz.

The Bushido meter now actually fills at an acceptable speed and the ones that deal physical damage do so based on the power of Cyan's equipped weapon rather than not caring about it.

Tools, Blitz, Bushido, and Throw are all now actually affected by the blind status whereas they were not before (even with the evade bug fixed).

Setzer's slots are de-rigged so that they are now purely skill-based than RNG. A losing spin now heals more HP and is a poor man's version of Banon's health command.

The list goes on.

Gau probably had more work put into him than every other character combined at this point. There's about six different QoL hacks specifically aimed toward rage, from listing them Alphabetically to greying out the leap option if Gau already knows the rages in a formation to being able to pull him out of rage with a certain item.

Yeah, you haven't played since we implemented a LOT of the QoL rage stuff, have you?

Are there any new/not in the original game missables before the floating continent? Don't mean tiny stuff, just don't wanna miss a new esper or something that wasn't originally in the WoB

Just Water Rondo and a select few rage formations you may have possibly missed.

Gau has 35 WoB rages.

Last I heard, Katy was running low on labels so there is a temporary "out of stock" message on the site... that should be fixed soon, though.

A lot has changed since then, and there's also a patch that restores most of the script to its original if you want.

As much as Deschain promotes it as such, that's not exactly what it is. Putting the original script in Brave New World would break it since a lot of it would be completely inaccurate and a lot of relevant information would no longer be present. What Deschain did was take a text dump of BNW's script, look for any line that might possibly offend a die-hard purist, and replace it with something bland and boring like Ted Woolsey would write.

It's quite literally Brave New World with a personality-ectomy. I love Deschain and I love that he did this work out of love for my game, but I fucking HATE that Goddamn script.

Can I play this without having played the original? Will it feel off?

Brave New World was designed so that it can be approached by a new player and not feel like you're missing anything or you have to have played the original to "get it". We currently have a player who never did play the original and he's enjoying himself so far (over halfway through the game)

That shit doesn't really work. Case in point, AM2R is still in active development to this day while the creator has moved on to enjoy a job working on the sequel to Ori and the Blind Forest thanks to all of the attention that was brought to his project in large part to being C&D'd.

Just go in and toss out your expectations based on having played the original game - they'll get you killed more than they will help.

I have one player right now who's never played the original game and, unsurprisingly, he's doing quite well.

I mean, it's more of a challenge then vanilla because vanilla was piss easy. We seek to avoid the "difficulty hack" label, though, because I feel that the prevalence of "kaizo"-style hacks has largely stigmatized the medium as a whole. Brave New World is difficult, but it's <i>fair</i> difficulty, or at least that's the aim. And it's certainly not as hard as something that actually intends to be a difficulty hack.

'bout what level were you when you fought Dadaluma? I seem to recall you being something of a low-level guy... I expect around level 12 for that fight.

This is a little project I started working on back in 2011. Back then, this forum was the only real support it had, and I haven't forgotten it. No matter how far I've come, this is where my roots are, and I couldn't have done it without y'all.

So, thanks for that.

Anyway, a few of y'all have caught wind of the fact that version 2.0 - which itself has been in the works for 2 years now - was officially released at the new year on January 1st, and one of you mentioned that I should make a thread about it here, so... here we are!

If you haven't heard of Brave New World, it is a complete mechanical overhaul/rebalance hack of Final Fantasy VI. You can find out more about it and acquire it here:
