[News] The "I too liked Xenogears' second disc" Club

We hear this every year.

I'll pay attention again when it is official.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Do I think it should have a remake? Not yet. However, the last few years Square-Enix has REALLY pushed the FF7 button hard through sequels, prequels, etc. So I'm not really that surprised.

However, as mentioned in this post, what I'd REALLY like to see is a remake of FF6. That was and is my favorite game of all time. Seeing it updated and new content added would be awesome. Or perhaps, for something even more shocking, what about a sequel? The world was left in the World of Ruin. What if some of the cast had to get together to repair the world? Some awesome moments could be:

* Shadow, having survived, reveals who he is to Relm. Shadow finally does what he says he will do in that he "stops running away from it [his responsibility]", and does start over again, living a normal life (the awesome, dramatic moments would be him revealing who he is to Relm, and the obvious tension throughout the game).

* Celes and Locke getting married.

* The revival of General Leo / Terra finding true love through Leo.

* Cyan finally putting the loss of his family to rest (there was only so much closure given to this).

* Terra learning more about her past and [possibly] how she alone will ultimately aid in the revival of the Espers in the world.

Obviously, some of those aren't as "obvious" as others. I could see some potential back story to the game to make things interesting. Figaro could be seen the main kingdom of the world and hence responsible for fixing the world. With magic gone though, this is seen as more difficult. This results in Edgar, who has used machinery, to work hard to use technology to replace what was lost when magic disappeared. However, Sabin feels that one can channel such power from within as well as use various techniques to emulate most (but not all) of what was done when they had magic. This results in a clash between the two brothers, resulting in a division of North and South Figaro. There is no civil war, but there is constant tension between the two nations and the two brothers.

This could lead to another big part of the game where the two brothers reconcile and the Figaro's unify. They could even design the game that for a while, if one brother joins your party, the other immediately leaves (e.g. Sabin comes to aid your party at one point. Edgar gets pissed and after the battle leaves without saying a word).

Anyway, I have said too much.

This right here is why I don't want an FF VI remake. It's good. No need to Kingdom Hearts this shit up.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Nah, Krel. I'm with you on that one. I think Skills is too, actually.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
