Which game should be done on Day 3?










Board 8 had a field day with FF8 and wanted a lot of change. Here's a few of them

-Major changes to the main cast.
-Less convoluted battle mechanics
-Non scaling enemies
- Removing the random rule set for Triple Triad

Let's see how its predecessor holds up, especially with its remake hopefully right around the corner.

I wish each character was more unique.

Change Vincent's limits to something useful.

That's it, the best game ever made can't be that much improved.

Translation (maybe attack while its tail is up isnt the best thing early on even if it is funny)

Enemy Skill isnt OP

Otherwise good

Skippable cutscenes. Nibelheim, North Crater, and the Mideel cutscene take forever.

Let me control Vincent.

Make it so a lot or the Limits aren't the same.

That's it.

Most of the stuff I can think of is probably being changed in the remake, but I can list some stuff anyways I guess.

Update graphics
Fix the translation
Make the Golden Saucer mini-games not terrible (most of them are bad)
Skippable cutscenes
Maybe make Enemy Skill not so crazy good
Speed up/cut some of the dumb optional stuff like Chocobo breeding, cpr, the whole lingerie gathering, etc
Make a better cast (only care for Yuffie, Cid and Barret)
More variety to Limit Breaks
Unique materia maybe so everybody isnt basically the same)

Cant remember if it has it or not, but skippable summon animations would be nice too because Knights of the Round takes so long you can make a 5 course dinner

This game needs no fixing for a game of its time. I mean, yeah, it hasn't aged well, but nothing is wrong with it by 1997 standards.

There's like nothing to the battle system. Even by 1997 standards there's no depth whatsoever there. Probably the most shallow feeling RPG I've ever played in that department. I'm not really sure exactly how to fix this with one change, and I don't really wanna spam with changes.

Make the characters more distinctive than limits, starting stats, and weapon range I think would be the biggest single improvement to make there.

The game is too easy and lacks post-game content.

Make KotR and the other few late-game materia accessible only after the final boss and add in meaningful and difficult post-game areas with tougher enemies and bosses. A lot of the super strong materia trivialized the game and it would be fun to see them actually used in high level enemy battles.

Remove game-breaking early on. Prevent abuse of enemy skill.

In its time it makes sense that there isn't any post-game content, but the opportunity to remake the game and add said content is very appealing in modern gaming. I'd love to see where that would lead.

Make the characters less edgy.
Make the character models less edgy.

I don't actually think the first one is a problem but I wanted to make a joke OK?

Improve the mechanics for the mountain climb in disc 2.

Make Yuffie and Vincent mandatory party members with a deeper connection to the story.

Make materia more unique to each party member.

Remake with better graphics
Explain the plot better
let there be a quest to revive Aeris. Also leave her name as Aeris and don't change it to Aerith.

Having "secret" characters is something I actually miss in RPGs. I thought Yuffie and Vincent still added enough to the story (Vincent especially) without being 100% integral if you happened to miss recruiting them. This was so much improved over Mog/Umaro/Gogo from FFVI.

Have Yuffie put my Materia back where it's supposed to go.

That's the only improvement we need.
