General Leo Edition
12-01-2013, 01:58 AM
Just finished playing through this hack. I registered here just to say great job and commend you on a very awesome and tasteful alternate version of one of my favorite games from the 90s.
If you like FF6 mostly as-is but would enjoy a slight twist to keep another playthrough interesting, then this hack is for you. The added items/equipment are also just enough to keep things interesting as you play through.
General Leo is a very satisfying character to play, and it's nice to actually have a dedicated swordsman to use some of those awesome weapons that were generally given to the female mage knights in previous playthroughs, and who rarely use them (illumina, excalibur, etc) because they're more focused on their magic at that point.
I must say I was a little skeptical at first because of the lack of Shadow, but after examining your reasoning for replacing him in the readme file and analyzing those reasons for myself while playing through, I admit that Shadow does make the most sense to replace. That being said, Leo became my main character once he was obtained and that was never the case for Shadow in my previous playthroughs, though he did usually end up in my main party of four.
As a side note, your Golbez edition FFIV was also very tasteful and interesting and I'd also recommend that to anyone looking for something similar to this in the FFIV realm.
Hope to see more projects from you soon!
