About Final Fantasy III
Final Fantasy VI is the sixth main installment in the Final Fantasy series, developed and published by Square. It was the final title in the series to feature two-dimensional graphics, and the first story that did not revolve around crystals.
The game gives players up to fourteen playable characters, the largest cast in the series, and features the Active Time Battle pseudo-turn based menu command system. A party can consist of up to four characters, though some events require the player to assemble three different parties of up to four and switch between them.
Each character has a unique command ability, such as Terra's Trance, Locke's Steal, Edgar's Tools or Sabin's Blitz, and can also learn Magic spells from earning AP from battles with magicite equipped. Each character's rare Desperation Attack will randomly activate after using the Attack command when at critical health.

You'll say the cast is too big to develop properly, but that's exactly why it works, everyone gets a moment even the side characters you'd forget in most other games, and that's what keeps me coming back to it in these duels.

23rd, 77 percent, none of it changes how tired I am of ranking these things against each other.

Oh no, a game that keeps winning most of its duels, truly a scandal we should investigate further.

348 duels and still climbing, that's not nothing.

The rank feels earned to me (not that ELO scores mean much on their own), the win rate backs it up too.

¿Con quién lo jugaste tú, o fue una partida solitaria de principio a fin?

I only play an hour or so most weeks, and even at that pace I never forgot which character arc I was in the middle of.

On me l'a vendu comme le chef d'oeuvre absolu, résultat j'ai passé plus de temps à choisir mon équipe qu'à jouer.

Replying to Éric_25
je l'ai fini justement pour les personnages, chacun a son passage marquant et ça, ça compte enormément pour moi.
Éric_25
pourquoi tu l'as fini alors si c'était si nul ?

Un jeu de 1994 qui bat encore régulièrement des titres bien plus récents en duel... ça veut dire quoi exactement, qu'on vote la nostalgie ou qu'il tient vraiment la route...

Je l'avais découvert chez une amie un week-end pluvieux, on a passé plus de temps à discuter des personnages qu'à avancer.
