April 2025

A great game, maybe it needed to add things like more freedom of the map, a more solid story, the levels can be repetitive, but in the end it is enjoyable.

April 2025

Episodic follow-up to Final Fantasy IV. Like the 3D remake of FF4 it's good but not great. I would love to get the 16-bit version but it's been lost to the Wii Marketplace and the PSP. I was hoping they would include it in the Pixel Remasters but they did not.

Dec. 2024

Game was over twice as long as the FFIV 3D Remake, but really tied several characters stories together nicely as well as added a sizable array of new characters to boot. Runs great on steam deck. The only downside I found was that if the game is force closed (not exited normally) it may not save the progress you made, and by progress you made I mean saves/autosaves/completed tales. Make sure to close the game normally.

July 2024

An interesting sequel of Final Fantasy IV. It feels more like an expansion than a sequel. The story seemed quite basic to me but it was worth buying to revisit the Final Fantasy IV world. I found the concept of arcs for each character refreshing. The final dungeon was quite painful, but so was the original in the ds version. It played perfectly in Linux with proton, no tweaks needed.

July 2024

The game is a clever add on to the best Final Fantasy (IMO), and it gives a great ending and conclusion to the game. It can be lengthy at times, but I love how the game focuses more on some other characters that didn't get as much screen time in the last game. Rydia and Edge especially do well in this game, as well as Kain. This is their game, whereas the first one was about Cecil and Rosa's romance.
