  1. I always specced Tifa to more speed and attack and turn her into a glass cannon. Her weapons and limit just always struck me to just get as much damage out there as possible. Plus she has the ability to tank one death already.

    Cloud, I make him a magic knight. Split his upgrades between magic boosts and str boosts, but leaning more towards magic. 

    Barret is a phys tank and Cid I make a spirit tank.

    I can't remember what I did with Yuffie, but Vincent I push him towards strength boost.

    For differences, you get steal earlier so you can use attack items. I appreciate the fact that you can shut off random encounters. There's new little mini scenarios, like one where you meet Yuffie in a totally different way than in the normal game. A few FF4 references from the Shinra weapon department. 


  2. I like FF7 New Threat. It has enough new story events that are fun, in addition to redoing the balance of the game to be interesting. Plus I always like seeing all the party members stand apart and be more unique than they were in the original FF7.

    Additionally, I think Sin of Mana mod is well balanced and has a fun new experience. Sin of Mana reworks all the classes of the characters in the base game, and adds in a brand new equipment system on top of it. There's working aggro, you can run around, new gameplay systems like hate/revenge systems where bosses answer actions with stronger counters. New ways of fighting bosses instead of just facerolling them. Plus it's an action RPG you can get a breath of fresh air before diving into another traditional rpg. 


  3. I love that you gave Cloud Second Wind already. I used to play it when he had some sort of stat up/growth over time? I just wanted to ask if I should go with Original or Arranged if I want to see it all? Also, 1.5 is the latest, right? I saw you have this on qhimm and there was some hotfix files. Do we need those on this version?


  4. It's only crazy if you fail and you keep trying. Mod is wildly succeeding, in my opinion. You don't get to escape to an asylum just yet, I'm afraid.

    By the way, why'd you guys change the life and phoenix down the way you did? To make the potions healing to percentages more useful? Or some other balance change I can't wrap my head around right now.
