We've seen some good remasters on PC this year: Resident Evil, Homeworld, Grim Fandango. Final Fantasy VI is not one of them. It seems to be a port of the mobile edition, complete with reworked visuals that bleach the original sprites into a brighter, almost rasterised style. That might not be an issue for many, but if you're looking for a faithful recreation of the original—not so great.
Gary Green said: We Europeans got royally screwed with the releases of the first six Final Fantasy games. I’m sure you’d find plenty of dodgy imports or bootlegs if you looked hard enough, but we never actually got a proper release for any of them, at least not for the first editions. There was a lot of xenophobia in gaming at the time, so anything Japanese getting released in the west at all was nothing short of a miracle. It was an ugly trend that continued well into the 2000s when worldwide releases became the new norm.
One of the most beloved entries in Square Enix’s long-running franchise is celebrating its 30th anniversary and that’s cause for celebration!
I'd rather it play more or less the same by have the 3D chibi graphics from Ever Crisis, I don't want them to change the story like they did with FF7R.
This arguably is my best game of all time out of the 40yrs I’ve been playing videogames

Square Enix revealed a NieR: Automata Masterline figure while one dedicated to Final Fantasy VI is available for pre-orders in North America.
This might make this port of the game actually worth purchasing.
I played the game on my phone and found it to be fine. I am not saying the flaws do not exist, I am simply saying that playing the game and enjoying it i ended up not noticing the tile tears.
I get that better quality work could have been persued but unless your scrutinize everything and everything this wasn't that big of a deal.
I can look past the sprites. My problem is those awful battle menus. I would just like the ATB gauges back.
