FFVI Veterans

>>375805184
if you like fairly in-depth class systems than fuck yeah play 5 afterwards

you can beat 6 in 3-4 days possibly less if you don't play it like a jrpg and don't grind but then you essentially have to speedrun, 3-4 days though is appropriate

>>375805184
You can definitely do it in 3-4 days.

What FFV lacks in story, it makes up in gameplay.

>>375805295
I love in depth class systems, thanks anon. Can't wait to play these.

>>375805184
Depending on how much you bother with all the side quests in the second half of the game beating the game in 3-4 days is certainly feasible

>Acquire Economy Ring
>beat the game
It's that simple. Alternatively,
>acquire Osmosis spell
>beat the game
Magic is so OP in this game it's stupid.

Anything else you'd recommend to a first time player? I'm trying to have as easy a playthrough as possible.

Sabin's Blitz ability is based on his magic stat
The Vanish status make physical attacks always miss, but magic spells always hit
There's an instant death spell HINT^^^^^
If you're playing the SNES version, there's a coding error that makes your M.Block stat get used for physical based dodges (as well as the magic based ones it's suppose to be used for), and your evade stat gets used for nothing.

>>375806939
There's a few people who die for plot reasons, you can save two of them if you're smart.

Thanks anons. I'll make sure to make use of that vanish+death combo as soon as I can. And pray that I save those two party members because I can't into permadeath.

FFVI is reasonably short if you aren't an idiot, maybe 30-40 hours to do everything that isn't hunting all the Rages down and uncursing the Cursed Shield, and FFV is a far better game than VI.

>>375808493
Is it worth doing everything or most-everything in this game? I'm a completionist but I was hoping this game would be a good time without getting everything.

>>375808997
Yeah, doing all the side stuff after you get the freedom to do it is worth your time.
Lets you resolve some character arcs and there's a bunch of optional dungeons.

>>375808997
6 is by far the most side quest heavy game of the first 10 games (the second half of the game is almost entirely side quests) meaning if you enjoy that type of stuff ff 6 is great

>>375809406
Hm. Maybe I'll wait to play this game until I actually have the time to really devote to it. I don't want to half ass it, FF is my favorite franchise, after all.

>>375805184
First playthrough probably 30 hours, 40 if you do all the side content. Probably close to 45-50 if your playing the GBA version with the additional dungeon.

>And is FFV even worth playing after I've beaten VI?
Yes definitely, its my personal favorite the story is really simple and nothing special but the job system is one of the best in the series.

>>375805184
4, 5 and 6 are all great.
7 And 9 are God tier.

>>375809608
The only mainline games I haven't emjoyed are 1, 2, 8 and 13.

5 and 6 are the only two I never got the chance to play, so I'm playing them now.

>>375809512
I'm pretty fucking excited to give them both an honest playthrough.

>>375809709
You will definitely like both of them then. 5 expands upon 3's job system and 6 was the most story driven of the SNES era games.

>>375809776
3 is easily one of my favorite in the whole series, so that makes me very excited for 5. And I love Final Fantasy stories, even if they're completely ridiculous. ur makan me excoited anon :o
