FF6 hack project idea

You have put some thoughts in your story and it is coherent and seem interesting. Since the progress is somewhat slow and you have an inability to think clearly, I would strongly suggest for the 1.0 release to do the minimum, which would be character sprites, dialogue changes and some FF3usME edits. This could be enough for a 1st draft and an original hack.

After this you can tackle more gameplay balance, other dialogues tweaks, NPCs sprites changes, start some event edits, add songs from the song data thread (this could be done sooner too), etc.

Otherwise it will be difficult to have a release version in a relative good amount of time. Keep it up!
