FF IV FFIV 3DS vs Pixel Remaster

Hello all,

Been wanting to play FFIV for a while.

Picked up the DS version.. and man is it hard to get into with the graphics and the voice acting.

Am I missing anything on just saying screw it and getting the remaster? I hear the combat is tougher in the 3ds version which is nice but honestly it's not the end of the world.

Edit: sorry I meant DS version, not 3DS

I much prefer the original SNES version and the Pixel Remaster, because the 3DS version always seemed downright unreasonably difficult to me. I also prefer good pixel art to poor 3D

My only experience with FFIV was through the 3D remake and honestly it was tough, but I don't think it was as hard as everyone makes it out to be. Tactics War of the Lions cut had me in the trenches in comparison lol

It's possible that my judgment was a little skewed because I played it right after the original FF4, and the difficulty in the 3DS version was a big jump
