FF6 - Brave New World

I didn't realize it was such an issue. It didn't detract terribly from the overall experience in my opinion, especially since I thought the rest of the script was strong and much-improved over Woolsey's original translation.

It's very polarizing, from what I can tell. Personally, I'd be a little worried if we weren't receiving at least *some* criticism, but this particular bit is consistent and copious enough to catch out attention.

On another subject, I noticed (and I doubt I'm the first to relay these to you) some targeting bugs. For example, when attempting to cast a restorative/buff spell on a character during the effect animation for X-Ether I get booted right back to the spell selection menu, as if I were attempting to target a foe who had jumped. I also somehow managed to get RegenX to ignore one of the characters in my party (whether this was due to inputting the command prior to their revival or not, I'm not sure, as the battle was somewhat intense at the moment so details may have been lost on me).

I will say that this is the first I've heard of the X-Ether one. It shares the same properties as the Megalixir, though, meaning that this is a bug that existed in the original version (but you just never noticed because who uses Megalixirs?)

the RegenX one was probably just it not affecting a character that was dead when the spell was queued up.

I went and checked out that Let's Break, and in one of the earlier parts (part 4, I think) he actually runs into something I assume is identical to what I had happen with Kutan - During the Vargas battle, Edgar's moogle is not blown away, leaving him and Sabin's moogle to stay together and finish the fight.

Ok, yeah, you're right. Battle scripts do seem to target the character specifically rather than just the slot (I still can't explain why, though).

I had been assuming Dragon was physical this whole time, and had Cyan frontline just for that reason. I will say that Flurry at least has been rather disappointing even in the front row, as enemy defenses are almost always high enough that any given enemy takes more damage from Dragon than all four Flurry hits. Has its' uses against Muddle-vulnerable enemies or to weaken a group though, but as a general rule Dragon is my go-to for damage options. Tempest is stated to ignore defense though, so I imagine it'll be a noted improvement for single-enemy scenarios.

It's getting to the point where I feel like the damage of *all* of Cyan's Bushidos needs to be tweaked a bit.

Finally, bug report and/or inquiry about game mechanics, I managed to pull off a double Wind Slash with Shadow (Two Kodachi's equipped), with the first strike being a critical and the second not. Both hits of Wind Slash did 398 damage though, rather than the first strike doing double. The readme mentions that rods can have their spells get a damage bonus from critical hits, but are multi-hit spells like Wind Slash unable to get this damage boost?

Random Wind Slashes work differently than random casts. They *replace* the attack rather than augment it, so it would stand to reason that they would also ignore critical hits.

I wanna say that although I'm only to the Magitek factory, I have definitely been enjoying this so far. The enemies are tough without being unreasonable (as long as you heed certain in-game advise such as not trying to steal from monsters) and being a bit careful. So far, it's my favorite version of FFVI.

Glad to oblige
