Current Events > Is FF6 supposed to be broken? >_>

(+) Yeah! (+)

Tools and Blitz OP pls nerf.

It's very broken, and also buggy. But it's not the only broken FF.

idk, all the FFs I've played usually require you put in some effort to break the game. Like hunting down obscure materia combos or grinding card games.

Here it's just, "oh, hi. Have some AOEs. No, doesn't cost you anything. Just take it." <_<

Tools quickly drop off in usefulness.

But yeah, FFVI is imbalanced.

It says something about the state of RPG development at the time that they could ship with entire battle mechanics just not doing what they were intended to do

Eh. FF II has the incredibly broken Warp/Teleport/Toad thing, on top of Berserk and Haste for killing bosses. Don't remember much from the other SNES games. VII gets pretty nuts just of you put your characters in Fury, and the Enemy skill materia is insane. VIII, you don't need to grind the card game to break it. Just get the abilities that enable turning enemies into cards into items into magic, and you'll have access to unlimited Limit Breaks and overtuned stats/spells throughout the whole game. Grinding TT is mainly for unlocking Squall's final weapon on disc 1. This isn't necessary to break anything. IX gets more or less trivialized as soon as you have access to auto-regen+auto-potion. Not to mention, you can literally finish the game on level 1, it needs to be pretty breakable for that to happen. Similar story with X. People finish single character challenges and no sphere grid challenges all the time. You might say the games are "broken". Or, they're just really easy and weren't meant to be difficult.

You can kill the absolute final boss with one character's turn if you have the right setup, and that's with multiple regular attacks.
