Following complaints from fans, Square Enix has been updating this PC version to make it more faithful to the original.Ĭan’t Square Enix do the same thing for Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI? And why are developers so insecure about their old pixels anyways? Even the recent Mega Man X Legacy Collections turn on a filter that “smoothes” the original pixels by default. While it didn’t redo its graphics as drastically as it did with Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI, ugly pixel filters and a bad user interface again made the experience look far worse than it did on the Super Nintendo. Earlier this year, Square Enix released another 16-bit RPG classic to Steam: Chrono Trigger. Why can’t we have a collection of these three Final Fantasy games that finally gives a definitive experience?Īt the very least, fix those awful PC/mobile versions. Digital games are popular, and we’ve seen companies like Capcom and Namco release recent bundles of their retro classics on moderns systems like PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Switch. A lot of people want to play the RPG in its original 16-bit style.

Of course, you need a PSP or Vita to play it. A PSP version also has updated graphics, but it’s much more faithful to the original sprites. Even aside from the new look, it has a bunch of gameplay changes. It looks better than the awful Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI hack jobs, but this version of Final Fantasy IV is pretty much a different game than the original. Square Enix remade it as a 3D game for the DS, and that version is also available on PC and mobile. Square Enix spent a whole bunch of time and money making great games worse.įinal Fantasy IV’s fate is a bit different.
In the grand scheme of things that don’t really matter in this world, few things infuriate me like these ports. Just look at the above screenshot and see how the colors on characters blend together. Square Enix decided to “remake” Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI for PC and mobile by replacing the original pixels with a new art style that is plain and devoid of any charm.
