I've only beaten the PS1 remake of FF1 and I played like an hour of FFX.

Beyond that only FF exposure of note is Theatrhythm (I know all the music to the games I've never played)

they're missing a bunch of content found in other versions and they don't have a fast-forward feature for some reason

They're very faithful and most of them are definitive versions for the most part.

They did that already. 4 is on PSP and 5/6 old mobile/PC versions

Are you a purist?

If you're a purist/weeb, play the Pixel Remasters. They have bug fixes not found in the original releases, better music, and higher quality visuals (I wouldn't say improved necessarily, depends on your tastes).

If not, play the older versions with extra content (IV/V/VI GBA for example) and just listen to the new soundtracks on YouTube or something.

EDIT: III is a big exception here because you may or may not like III DS and there aren't any 2D versions of the game with the features III PR comes with.

I still haven't tried them yet but I do wonder why they left out stuff added in older versions. Like FF1 on gba had more content than this newest version does. The gba version added 4 dungeons that don't exist in the pixel remake

They ruined the final boss theme of FF4. In the original versions there's a moment where sound alternates between your left and right ears for a really cool effect, it's missing in the remaster version.

Only played 1-3 but there were all pretty good. III specifically it was really nice finally being able to play an official English translation of the 2D version. I've always been a tad mixed on the weird chibi-esque DS artstyle they used for 3,4 and Bravely Default. >_>

Yep, they are definitely worth it. The PR actually improves I-III greatly.

Nah I like it and IMO it's the best official release of FF6.

T Edition mod is my favorite one in general tho
