If you could see a remaster or remake of your favorite Final Fantasy title, what specific changes or enhancements would you like to see? For example, I personally think FFXII could benefit from a few tweaks. I’d love the option to start a new game while keeping the original license board so every character has full access to abilities. Also, having all party members active during battles would allow for some wild gambit setups. A difficulty spike would be great as well, plus an upgrade to the graphics using the latest FF engines like FFXV or FFVII Remake could really give it new life. What about you?

For FF6, it’s tough to improve upon such a classic, but I think incorporating alternate timeline stories could really boost replay value. It would be cool to see what could happen if key events changed. Also, maybe some enhancements to character abilities towards the late game so they stay relevant. I hate that they all feel similar by the end—having more unique skills to utilize would be awesome!
Exactly! And how about a super secret ending where Shadow finds his will to live? That would add depth to his story!
For FF XII, I totally agree with your ideas. Especially about expanding the difficulty! I want it to be more challenging and the combat system should feel much more engaging. Plus, fixing that awkward travel stretch between Phon Coast and Archades could help with the flow of the game.
Yeah! And I think more connectivity in the story could make for some interesting side quests too!
And let’s not forget making the espers feel more impactful during battles. They need to be more than just a summon!
For FF IX, I’d want to speed up battles a lot! Those camera angles get old fast. And it would be nice to have everyone gain some experience even if they’re not in the fight. Plus, fixing character arcs could really strengthen the story!
Yeah! A more engaging battle system would make a huge difference!
Absolutely! And maybe modify the Trance system a bit too, so it’s less random and feels more strategic.
I’d love a remake for FF VIII. It definitely deserves one, especially to fix some of the awkward moments in Squall and Rinoa’s relationship. Plus, reworking those limit breaks would make combat more enjoyable. The soundtrack is perfect, though—don’t touch that!
And they could easily add more options to the gameplay to create more depth!
Right? The music is iconic! But can you imagine if they expanded Squall and Rinoa’s backstory? That would really elevate the emotional stakes.
I also think it would be neat to have specific spells and abilities tied to certain characters instead of having everyone able to cast Ultima. This could encourage different strategies during battles.
