Final Fantasy IV remake for DS

Backfire, I got FF6 on GBA in the mail from Amazon today, do you approve? 😄

I'll be pre-ordering this remake most likely too.

I approve. Have you never played it before?

If not, you're in for a huge treat. Amazing game.

No, I never played any FF before 7, which I regretted.

So basically I never played the 'Original 3' that came to the US, all I know about plot details besides the intro is what nintendo power had.

I have all 6 between the DS/GBA now as well.

Man VI and VI (and now III thanks to the DS) are my favorite Final Fantasy games. Just wait till you get into Kefka and you can see that Kefka makes every villain look like a hero.

Yeah, Kefka is legendary.

Which Final Fantasy was Kefka in?

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

FFVI, aka the one they were just talking about.

Well multiple Final Fantasy games were mentioned so I didn't know.

Geesh. Read.

anata wa wakarimasu ka.....

Yes read. It would become clear what game we were talking about had you read.

Kefka is the greatest video game villain of all time just because how psychic he is. "TODAY!! I'm going to KILL somebody muhaha!!"

I know. He's so purely evil and not in that "Oh, I'm evil but charismatic and cool" kind of way. You ****ing hate his guts by the end of the game, making the final confrontation so intense and awaited.

Mehh, he always underwhelmed me. Too comic book.

Eh, you can't please everyone.

Blasphemy!!

Where's my towel? It's whipping time!

Though of course it's possible my copy of FFVI was only fanslated.

I'll give it another shot sometime, I am sure.

Still gotta whip ya.

Sorry friend!

Well, that was an added bonus...

The GBA translation doesn't do much more for him. Kefka never struck me as anything like absolute evil. He was essentially a selfish coward who enjoyed being brutal to those who couldn't fight back and double-crossed everyone he could the first chance he got. Not a good person to be sure, but not exactly an epic, awe-inspiring villain.

Of course, I think many like him for being atypical like that. Just not my style of villain.

Well, his actions disagree with you, as he is one of the few villains who succeeded in conquering the world and such. If that's not epic I don't know what is.

Even a fool gets lucky once in a while. Sure, he conquered the world, but not really through any skill of his own. His spur-of-the-moment, "guess I'll just kill you now" brand of scheming is not as epic as the quiet, carefully calculated down to every detail evil planning of truly great villainy.
