Superboss

I really hope they provide some kind of DLC or something. It's still a great game but I was playing it when I was ten years old. Kind like some more challenging content after Kefka

The point was to reproduce the original game, so it won't be happening.

These games aren't really about challenge. They're about story. Even if they added more bosses, you would just do the same thing you do in all boss fights--spam heals and melee attacks. If you want a challenge, you can try playing FFV and use the four job fiesta ruleset.

Lame. Games are supposed to have superbosses these days. The nineties are over and games are played differently. Anybody can face roll their way through the main quest. We want bonus content to test us. They won't even let us mod the game to introduce new challenges

Modding the game is possible, there's mods as it is.
But Magi Master, and Hidon are technically super bosses, if you want to mod the game further, you should check out the modding discord.

If you want the optional content, then the standard FF6 version on Steam has all of that.

The pixel remasters are pretty much literally only what they say they are - remastered versions of the pixel originals because hey guess what, people were shouting out for playable originals as opposed to having that additional optional content - to have that breath of nostalgia.

No complaints from me though, I couldn't for whatever reason get into the remake port on PC and ended up starting and finishing pixel remaster VI in one sitting - easily in my top FF games instantly.

I don't think you can get those anymore. I'm pretty sure they took all the older versions away when the remasters were released

From my understanding if you find a website selling steam keys, you should still be able to "purchase" them that way.

Because most of the data for the various remakes additional contents are still in the game data.

Also because lots of people are complaining that they were removed and Square doesn't want to alienate its fans. If folks don't want to play them, they don't have to but it feels dumb to just pull content out.

no proof all lie—typical
and if even so, would make a difference
if this was to have gba content it would've been set in stone in the beginning forementioned herein, there out. you want this, you can mod, you already is it well versed. i guess, have fun

they dont care for your 'complain'. cry a river to no avail.

I very much doubt that. Any company that doesn't care about satisfying its consumer base will rapidly be out of business. Remember how Bioware reacted to fan outcry against the ME3 ending? That wasn't out of charity, that was because they realized if they didn't fix the problem they would alienate their fans and be unable to sell DLC and as many copies of ME related media in the future.

These are ground up remakes in a new engine, not ports. There's absolutely no reason for that data to exist, unless they originally intended to include them.

Except these were made in response to the outcry that the old mobile ports had.

Okay well first anyone and everyone who's dabbled in modding any of these 6 titles will tell you the same thing, secondly i uploaded gifs showing off the "Flood" spell, which was GBA exclusive from Leviathan esper, that thread has long since been burried, so i can re-share it i guess.

And if you think I somehow animated this, I'm way too lazy for that.

Almost the entirety of the GBA's monsters data also exist (can't speak for their sprites as i haven't looked that far into it)

While this is a full "Remake" from the ground up on unity, it looks like they dumped the data from either the GBA, or the previous FF6 steam version, and used the same libraries, but created the game engine and functions from scratch to use them.

I feel like the choice to remove the remake-exclusive content (and actively advertising such on the store pages even before release) was quite deliberate. Personally, I feel like most of the remake-exclusive content added in these games was actively bad and infuriating (Labyrinth of Time or whatever from the PSP version of FFI, I'm looking at you. FFV's Advance dungeon was also pretty awful, speaking as someone who love FFV more than any other game out there), and therefore I'm glad it's gone. Some of it was fine, sure, like Soul of Rebirth (conceptually) was cool, but if giving up content that was, at best, merely average, in exchange for also giving up content that was honestly inexcusably bad, I'll happily give it all up for just the base game as originally intended.

If they add it as DLC one day, cool, I guess. Add it for the people who liked it, and for people like me, I can gladly pretend it doesn't exist without actually having it still be in my game anyway, taunting me.

So you want to mod it in, feel free, is what do. But not expect from Square Enix add. It is clear these version is solely based on the original SFC version, not including any additional content, it is said so explicitly, if this wasn't the case, it wouldn't be explicitly mentioned to all players, before during and after release.
Simple.

And yet again you're wrong, this version is based on the GBA version, Localization, event changes, who can equip what and more, are from the GBA version, all they did was lock out/remove events/activators of the GBA+ content, and restricted it back down to SOME of the SNES content, which is completely different than what you're describing.

And even then they've taken further liberties to differentiate it further from both the SNES and GBA versions.

Such as the opera, the Quezticotol and Odin changes, battle speed, Clear Data after beating Kefka from GBA still exists, it just doesn't carry over steals, or unlock post-game content Beastiary and Music player from the PS1/GBA/SteamOld.
Originally death was an outright game over, but they undid that, they added in Healing buckets everywhere, quick saving, auto saving,

What i did was not Mod IN something, but made it Accessible it already existed.

Of all the Pixel Remasters, 6 is the furthest from the SNES version, and sure they probably won't ever add in the extra stuff themselves, but that doesn't mean it's not there, and it doesn't mean that this is based on the SNES, to recreate the SNES, because it just factually doesn't.

And it has even LESS in common with the Super Famicom (JP) Version than it does the SNES and GBA.


FF6 Pixel Remaster is FF6 Pixel Remaster, it is its own thing, different from every previous version before it, it's NOT Super Famicom Remastered, it's NOT Super Nintendo Remastered, it has far too many differences compared to each previous version, it is at BEST a wild amalgamation of the SNES, PS1, and GBA versions all mixed together, with a new secret sauce thrown in while removing an ingredient.
