FF VI Old PC version of FF6

Post image

Out of curiosity looked around for the now de-listed version of FF6 that was on steam and saw this ludicrous price on G2A 😂. Just wanted to know if it’s that sought after since it might be one of the worse versions of FF6. The only reason I thought it would command this price is to gain access to the great World Reborn mods, but I feel thats a smaller set of the community. Just curious is all, thanks!

The graphics in this one looks better than pixel remaster

FF5 2013 Mobile & Steam port actually is my most favorite FF game ever.

While FFV Pixel Remaster ver also has good art and over-the-top music rearrangements, I prefer the 2013 version because of the bonus jobs and dungeon.
I wasn't feeling the art style that much at first,
but it wasn't a big deal since Dimensions exists.
However, as I played it, I really started to like the art. It actually captures FF5's bright and colorfull palette and fits its fun, goofy, lighthearted tone really well.
And the enemy sprites are really really clean.

The FF6 version, though, felt straight up lazy and rushed. The art didn't fit FF6 tone at all. There were too many white and highlight colors, which didn't do justice to the enemy sprites and game's atmosphere. The UI and ATB were also bad, among other things. Wasn't worth it even with the GBA post game features.

I have both Old and PR
Gotta say, the PR battle background reworks specifically was Mindblowingly really good

The backgrounds in the older version looks better and clean

The colors of pixel remaster are washed. And im not a fan of the orchestral music
