( : Square Enix is dragging their feet in the mud. They are the closest thing to EA, Activision and Ubisoft here in the West. I was lucky enough to play a couple of the classic Final Fantasy games on Super Nintendo at a cousins house. Final Fantasy VI is one of my favorite 2D JRPGs aside from Chrono Trigger, which I hope gets trophy support some day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPtheNeurotic Posted December 18, 2022 Share Posted December 18, 2022 Thinking about it I’m less annyed at the price tag and more at the fact they’re gone and exclusive to SE store instead of just realeasing it to regular retailers. maybe I’m an idiot but if six of the best and most influential jrpgs are bundled together they should be worth their value . but not making them accessible is bullshit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taliesin_2943 Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 I was under the impression that they haven't even gone live for preorder cause there's a thing on the page saying enter email to be notified when they go live so I dunno how they would be sold out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes it works out but sometimes it doesn't. I was on the waiting list for one game on their store for ages before I gave up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, Square Enix no longer puts much effort into anything on a grand scale. That includes this particular release, which they've handled.... let's just say it's par for the course. With that said, the Steam versions each have individual "Platinums", in the form of Achievements that you unlock after getting all the other achievements. It would take them more effort to remove those as opposed to just converting them. It's a pretty safe bet to say those will be the Platinum trophies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the steam achievements have a lot of copy and paste of certain ones, like gil, bestiary, and named locations, but I am looking forward to the collection. IV is my favorite FF and it will give me a reason to play v and vi the only numbered FF I haven't played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebourne07 Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Anything less than 6 full, individual platinums and I’ll be pissed. If Stroke the Monkey gets a platinum, Final Fantasy VI better get one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChadDeathBringer Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Now on the Square Enix site instead of a waiting list being there now is listed as no longer available. Cant believe they are doing such a low print run and not going to actually have a longer window available for people wanting to preorder the physical copy of these classics... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sendai-Horatio Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 What are the chances these games get a wide physical release on the PS5? Because I can see Square splitting these up into groups of threes. First volume is Final Fantasy 1-3, second is 4-6, third is 7-9. With each priced at 35 bucks they can fill budget releases nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PostGameBlues Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 (edited) The standard edition is going for like 300-400 AUD on Ebay (scalpers eating good), meanwhile when I looked at a Japanese reseller that ships to Australia, the collector's edition was 400 AUD. Ridiculous how the standard edition has become the same price as the collector's edition in this case. This is probably the first time I've ever seen a standard edition be a lot RARER than the supposed 'collector's edition'. I see more collector's editions up for sale on resellers than the standard edition. Square Enix with the big brain plays.

Moomba Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I WANT to be excited. But the way they handled the pathetic physical release has me more disappointed than anything. I WILL be excited after I get over this initial frustration. They are all great games that are always worth replaying, and this time with trophies! 6 hours ago, Rebourne07 said: Anything less than 6 full, individual platinums and I’ll be pissed. If Stroke the Monkey gets a platinum, Final Fantasy VI better get one. I can almost guarantee them each having a Platinum. The Steam versions each have an achievement for getting all the other achievements, and they are each going to be sold separately too. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
