to all this is not a mobile phone game port....its a DS port

[GeoNeo_-]

i did some research and ...this final fantasy 3 remake was originaly for NITENDO DS, and later ported to mobile phone with the exect same UI and stuff....so if you people complain about the "mobile phone graphics" and "mobile phone UI" actually the graphics and UI is from the Nintendo DS version which just later got a phone port which looked exactly like the DS version but which seems ot be known more. but yea graphics and UI origialy come from nintendo DS version,and was just reused over most ports.....

The game was totally fine until they ruined it with this patch.

Yes, and it looked great until they did this needless update. FFIII was the best FF port to Steam and it's totally baffling why they did this. They really should have a rollback option so people who like the old version can play it again.

i just wanted to say this bc a lot of people complain about oh its a phone port it looked like a andriod ui and like andriod phone graphics eventho Its a DS port the phone version literally looked like the DS version so this game isnt a phone port bc the phone port was a ds port which looked like the original DS remake so i had to make that "oh phone game port bad" non-sense clear

it is a port of the mobile version though like a bunch of the other ff ports and chrono trigger were

but the mobile version was the EXACT same like the DS one menus grahics everything thats the thing .so it may be not talked down to "oh mobile game bad etc"

I've stayed silent on this for too long, the game had problems before this patch. It didn't even run in 16:9. Yes, they ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up. Saying they shouldn't fix the previous issues because they made more issues is silly, we all just want them to fix the problems new and old.

The DS game did not have the same UI as the mobile port.

In fact, this new UI they added to the steam version of the game, is much closer to the original DS UI.

I know this update broke the game a bit, and I agree, but I’m just not sure what’s the point of bending reality.

These are the facts:

1- This game was first released on the DS, and it was then ported to Mobile with a touch-friendly interface.

2- The original Steam version of the game was directly based on the Mobile re-release (while also ironically removing any sort of mouse or touch compatibility).

3- The recent update reworks the user interface to look more like the DS/PSP versions of the game (while ironically adding mouse support).

Mobile UI on Pc is just ugly is a fact. Its just giant touch buttons, its not good for button or keyboard interface.

It sucks that they made a few errors here and there. But i am sure they will patch it up and fix it. I am just glad they are fixing the UI to look better for a PC

i know easy to read slightly bigger and square bottons horrible..........(sarcasm)

thing is like this.... i feel like lets say im wrong it is a mobile port....i feel like people just like hating UIs from phone games bc "its cool to hate mobile stuff" if the phone ui were like the new ui is youd hate that one too ,bc everyone jumps on that bandwagon

[Abgarok]

I don’t personally dislike the mobile UI. And I don’t particularly care which one is used.

Though I do find it odd how Square Enix decided to specifically port the mobile versions of so many of their games and took the time to remove any and all support for touch screens.

It’s like... Have this interface designed to be used with a touch screen, but please don’t touch your screen, that won’t work!

It's the phone port my guy. before the patch, psp version was the superior version. now this will be once the font issue is fixed. we all know it's the phone port because the ds and psp versions did not have the previous ui and this did not have all the features of the ds and psp versions.

[Ithurtswhen_ipee]

But still, on the DS this sort of UI worked, on the phone? arguable...

but were on PC now... also the DS version specifically had a second screen for spells instead of throwing up on the whole screen every time you wanted to use it... im just glad someone mad a mod to fix that.

[Abgarok]

The DS version did not even use both screens at the same time during battles (the top screen is not used at all during battles). It played pretty much identical to the PSP version, just with touch-enabled menus.

It also did not have the same big buttons and huge menus as the mobile version. That has been unique to the mobile and the old steam versions of the game.

tbh this thread here doesnt matter anymore i just want the damn game to work and an option for the old version before the ui chnage
