Final Fantasy Hacktics

Quote from: Stevemcblark on July 03, 2022, 05:18:06 amSo uh...I got a very unfortunate glitch that unfortunately has brought my run to an end. I beat the final boss, got the mission cleared screen, and then...nothing. A black screen.

Aaaand I got the same glitch. I beat Queen Remedi, "Mission Cleared", then my screen goes black. Can't seem to do anything else from here. I'm using Delta if that helps.

(Still, I've been very happy playing this, as I said recently. You asked for some feedback in earlier posts, so I wanted to take a second to say I think your intentions have landed perfectly: Story encounters are tough and fun; Double Sword is good, but other Support abilities feel necessary too, especially Concentrate in later game fights;  And multi-classing feels amazing. I can play a Paladin/Black Mage off tank without any worries about his stats at all. The multi-classing feels like a dream come true!)

Thank you so much for making and sharing this hack, Kai! It's an amazing balance of improvement without changing too much from the original game.

One question, though. In the GoogleDoc changelog your 2.01 notes say you buffed monsters because you forgot to re-buff them, but the version in this forum is 2.0. Does this current version still have those nerfed monsters? Just curious if a new game would feel too easy as it is now.

Thanks for being such a champion in this community!

EDIT: I've been playing the hack for about 50 hours now, and it is AMAZING. (The monsters seem plenty tough lol.) But seriously, I love it. Story missions require a serious amount of strategy and can't just have any old in-progress clan member thrown in. There are some strategies that seem stronger than others (Illusionists, double sword with incredible weapons), but honestly the AI uses those strategies right back at you; plus if they have certain means available to them, they will use them and they will make your life hell (a doublecast Red Mage one-turn-killed my whole team until I managed to provoke it; a clan that had three units to auto-raise and did NOT hesitate to use them lol), which I honestly love. The game is tough in a great way.

The only problem I've run into is the occasional crash, maybe four times or so. Twice trying to use items mid-combat, once in the shop, once in combat. And now I just save slightly more often (my emulator, Delta, has an incredibly easy save state system), and it's really no problem at all.

This hack is amazing. rrs_kai, you are amazing. I love you. Thank you for putting love into one of my favorite childhood games and making it a great time to revisit!
