In regards to the video posted:

I think that it's the Master Sword as well since it's his most iconic weapon, but whoever has it is probably not who we think it is. The Master Sword can't be used by just anyone, so my guess it's another hero worthy of it. Kinda like Thor's hammer, only someone worthy of it can wield it. So I'm going to guess it's someone like Crono or Glenn who has it for whatever reason.

Thank you for the responses! I'm stoked, can't wait to play it!

As for the secrets I heard about, I'll spoiler tag them here:

I meant the abilities like Ikanagi Shock and Shadow Flare that you can learn. I heard somewhere that there's another ability or something "secret" like those in Chapter 1 but haven't been able to figure out what it is. I was hoping you could give a hint as to what it is, if there is anything at all?


Also, do you guys have a paypal account or something we are able to donate to in order to support your efforts?

I just wanted to join the forum and let Elric and the other creators of this mod know that they did an amazing job.

I started the mod about a month ago and finally finished it yesterday. I heard about it through another forum discussing FFT mods (which I didn't know was even a thing) and JotF was brought up. I admit the concept sounded silly at first, but after diving in I was thoroughly impressed. Not only is the gameplay challenging and fun, but I was very pleased with how believable the plot and characters were. You guys showed a lot of care for the world and characters and it shows. So really, great job!

After reading through the forum I'm happy to hear that the project is still alive and on its way, even though I'll lose my save file.

Couple of thoughts/questions:

1) Glad Ramza's dialogue may be addressed in the re-release. Sometimes it did feel jarring and out-of-character.
2) Glad that the JP system is being addressed in the re-release. I really want to explore other jobs like Blue Mage, Redguard, Samurai, and so on but I didn't even get close to unlocking them, especially since the base jobs are so useful.
3) I keep reading about three secrets sprinkled around the forum. I was only able to find two of them, can anyone give some hint as to where the third one is?
4) The mod is brutal and unforgiving in the beginning before you learn some abilities. I read that the first Beastmaster battle was already nerfed, but are there plans to make the early game a bit easier?
5) Speaking of Redguard, what are they exactly anyway? Some kind of Red Mage?
6) How far along is Chapter 2/the re-release? I saw the Chapter 2 progress log thread but the OP hasn't been updated in nearly a year so I'm not sure where it's at right now.
