    Final Fantasy VI personalmente es mi juego favorito de la saga junto con el primero. No haré spoilers de la historia pero puedo decir que me encanto, junto con su antagonista principal. Jugablemente han cambiado el sistema de magias por uno en el que se vincula a una invocación para aprender habilidades y mejorar las stats. Sigo prefiriendo el sistema de magias y habilidades del FinalFinal Fantasy VI personalmente es mi juego favorito de la saga junto con el primero. No haré spoilers de la historia pero puedo decir que me encanto, junto con su antagonista principal. Jugablemente han cambiado el sistema de magias por uno en el que se vincula a una invocación para aprender habilidades y mejorar las stats. Sigo prefiriendo el sistema de magias y habilidades del Final Fantasy 1 y 5 pero es realmente un aire fresco para la saga. El problema con este sistema de magia es que cualquier invocacion que te hayas perdido puede ser que haya algun hechizo importante que no puedas conseguir nunca mas. Y eso si que te dejara en mucha desventaja, por que este Final Fantasy es bastante dificil. Y la razon de por que le gana 1 punto para mi al FF1 es por que este demostraba una gran superioridad en el equilibrio a la hora de subir de nivel. FF6 (al menos en GBA) tiene varios glitches con el tema de nivel, (y muchos otros). Empezando por los bonus que no ganas al perder luego de haber subido de nivel, hasta game breaking glitch por perder en el overworld un numero determinado de veces, enemigos que abusan de un determinado hechizo (al igual que FF4, 5 y posteriores), grindeo excesivo para poder pasar ciertas secciones de la historia, etc... Por ultimo, la música me ha parecido de mis favoritas de la saga, muy epica y suena cuando tiene que sonar. En conclusion, uno de mis juegos favoritos del GBA, lo recomiendo a pesar de algunos glitches o fallos que cometa a diferencia de anteriores entregas.… Expand

    Not counting the awful sound mixing, this is the freatest version to play ff 6.

It's the game we all love to play for hours for the amazingly well constructed world you can explore and great characters you meet(and an outstanding villian). The tihngs holding back this game is that through the secod half the game becomes really easy and the custom mechanics for your characters are so simplistic it's amazing to thinj they were the predcesors of ff7. But still, all the positive aspects and great world desing(both int the structure and looks of it) make for a ftantastic adventure.… Expand

    . The original game is from 1994. There are N versions for various platforms that are just adapted versions of the original with almost no changes.

    . The review is based on what was possible at the time of release. So, you can't demand better graphics for a 1994 game. Historical time matters.

    --> Positive points:

    . Not having a defined protagonist (it's up to the player) was creative.

    . It brings a classic RPG experience that for beginners will be fantastic and solid for veterans.

    . Good sidequests

    --> Negative points:

    . Random encounters battle system. In a J-RPG supposedly the player should explore, but the random encounters move the player in another direction.

    . It doesn't explore antagonist's point of view. Why did he do it? What is his motivations? Ex: Kefka or Empire ways was a mystery all game long.

    . The larger plot is shallow. The antagonistic side is very bad and only does evil for no clear reason and the protagonist's side is very good and only does the right things. Shounen anime style.

    . Unmemorable characters. Due to their excess. Example: Do you remember the name of the little girl who likes to paint?    … Expand

    A well-made game that's better than most RPGs that we've seen released these past few years, and all of the new additions in this version only help make it even more awesome.

    In 1994 the fresh gameplay ideas Final Fantasy 6 brought to the RPG genre, coupled with the highly enjoyable story, brilliant ensemble cast and stirring score would have made the game an easy, trailblazing Eurogamer 10. It's either a remarkable testament to the original development team's vision and skill, or a damning indictment of a genre that this is so very nearly the case thirteen years on.

    The best of the three GBA re-issues, Final Fantasy VI Advance is a timeless dollop of role-playing adventure gaming.
