This is an old revision of the document!

RotDS has started as FF6 Last Hope All-Stars more than 7 years ago and a lot of progress has been made since this era. This romhack is one of the most complete ever done, in the same tier as FF6: Brave New World or FFVI: T-Edition but having its own characteristics. This hack come with a lot of add-on patches to suit your preferences.

From the readme: “This hack promises to showcase some of the challenging aspects of FFVI hacking, as well as plenty of fun and exciting new content - from an all new cast of playable characters with customized movesets, a radically changed story with many new and edited events, new overworld maps, a new soundtrack, increase in difficulty, lots of new battle scripts for monsters & bosses, and tons of spritework.

It is a highly personalized modification of the original game and therefore naturally won't appeal to everyone. It's not a sequel or a prequel or a remake to FFVI, it is just a massive mod and customization of FFVI and at times somewhat nonsensical. If you go into it thinking like this I am sure you will have a much more enjoyable experience than expecting some high quality re-take on the game and coming out feeling disappointed. That being said, a lot of time and love has gone into this project and I couldn't be happier with how it has turned out thus far.”
