Kitase: "a remake of FF6 could take double what it took for FF7 Remake + Rebirth; lots of people inside Square want to do it, but he can't say yes"
- Thread starter AuthenticM
- Start date
I mean if we're talking a remake on the scale of FF7 Remake, yeah I guess I can see that.
World of Ruin would probably be its own separate game in that regard.
And don't even get me started on how the Veldt would work.

A remake on the level of FF7R would be completely unnecessary for FF6 anyway.
If they want to do something *more* than a pixel remaster, 2D-HD would be sufficient for FF1~6 and DQ1~7

But it doesn't have to be photorealistic and extremely high-quality models/textures. FF16 went for that and cinematics above all else and it's possibly my least favourite FF game. I would love for FF games to scale back a bit on the visuals front and go back to focusing on gameplay and more robust RPG-systems like the PS2 days.
!!!!!!!!!
This is the key.
At this point I can accept that the mainline series is always gonna be about that for the new numbered entries.
Remakes do not have to follow suit! Let them be an opportunity for the team to tackle a new art style.
I still think that when it went 3D, FF should've been like Zelda and try a different art style with every game.
Yeah….I don't think we're gonna see another FF get the 7R treatment
I'm curious to see how 9's remake pans out. Could offer a more feasible way forward, assuming it turns out ok. Something similar in scope to Visions of Mana could be quite nice.

Please no
On topic please do Vagrant Story or Xenogears if you're looking for suggestions
neither of those games even need remakes, just add some QoL stuff and render them in 4k
we still waiting 2D-HD for DQ3.
FF remake has plenty of new art style. we have chibi 3D remake of FF3

Yes that's why I said in an earlier post
i will fight you kitase
Because that would be a downgrade.
And yeah, I'll be forever bummed they didn't get to more of the games in that vein.
Because thats not what they mean when they want to remade.
I remember being so certain when I was younger that we'd get a VI remake in the style of the III and IV remakes. Alas…
Yeah, depending on how the IX remake turns out, maybe a VI remake could be closer to it in style than the VII remake?
I think this is for the best. FFVI but with mutant Kewpie Doll 3D models would be an absolute farce. You can't tell a serious story when your characters look like that.
VI would need a complete revamp of its progression and battle system to be interesting. The scenarios would hold up just fine. Combat would not. Something like Brave New World would be the least they could do to clean it up.
Plus they need to finish up IX Remake first 😉

Them being remade would be fantastic, both have epic, unique stories, wonderful worlds, and amazing characters. Also the potential of creating new series upon their success is huge(not sure what the deal is with the Xeno franchise since we have Gears, Saga, and Blade)
The thing about HD-2D is that doing that to FFVI won't make it better, it'll just make it worse. Making the art style LESS cohesive won't benefit FFVI at all.
100% this. I'd rather just have Pixel Remasters or 2D-HD than deal with that.
Man I don't think I could handle another decade of remakes. If you want to Star Ocean 2R it or something, or reimagine the game in a lower fidelity, or try a trials of mana style thing, I guess I could see that but a 4-part remake of VI I just have no desire for whatsoever, especially when we get a new FF title every 7 years as is if we're lucky.
The X project is the next big remake/sequel thing.
I wish 6 or Trigger would get the 2D-HD treatment. I feel like it's inevitable but they take so long to produce too.

FF6 is my all time favorite Final Fantasy, and I want to see Sabin suplex a train in modern day graphics. Please make this happen.
So much of FFVI would be lost in translation in a FFVII type remake... Those guys have no idea what they made in the past.
I'm pretty sure it would lost 100% of the charm of the original.
Let's not even talk about the potential 15 cd ost made of non related music with different composers...

Because they want the game to sell outside of Era :)
Seriously, I personally wouldn't mind a 2D game, but I doubt it would sell the numbers they would want.
The playable cast of FFVI is massive with 14 characters. You'd also need to have Magitek gameplay in there so call it 15. And Terra as an Esper so make it 16. And General Leo as well, so 17.
And then every single one of those characters has very unique movesets that work very well on a sprite level such as on-demand suplexing every enemy in the game, sketching enemies on-demand, or entering fighting game combos for special attacks. Or having Gogo be able to copy literally every single attack across all characters.
I think the idea of it being remake VII Remake style is too far-fetched as the scale of the project would undoubtedly be a massive undertaking. I'd go so far as to say it's impossible to faithfully and completely bring it to VII Remake style without losing almost everything that made it work on a sprite level.

Or just.....don't make it take that long?
Remake the game and instead of padding it out by 40 hours, just make it good and save yourself the time and money that you were going to spend on useless padding.

If SE wants to do it they can do it. Granlink Fantasy has 21 characters all brought to life from their gacha-game, some of them have different mechanics I think from the previews I saw. They'll be bringing in more characters as well.
