“Final Fantasy I-VI Pixel Remaster has been well received. Are there plans to remaster other past titles? Personally, I would like to play Xenogears,” asked one shareholder.

A member of Square’s board replied: “We will refrain from sharing information about new titles, but we are considering various ideas within the company and hope that you will look forward to forthcoming announcements.”

Article title is completely misleading. Square Enix did not give any hint that it’s “considering remastering more old titles”, it was just a vague corporate answer to a question.

How about a FF6 remake while they’re at it?

Correct me if I’m wrong but isn’t FF6 in this remake pack? Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster I - VI

Remaster =/= remake. While the remasters looks great and fix some things, they’re largely just a cosmetic upgrade. Compare that with FF7 remake, which tweaks the actual gameplay and story, in addition to a massive upgrade to the graphics.

I’m still a bit peeved they never truly “fixed” the fonts in the pixel remasters. They did update it when the console versions came out, but they still kinda suck.

Here’s a quick little comparison I made:

The font I chose on the far right isn’t the one you have to choose though if you want to mod in something. There’s like 7 different font packs people have made for these games.

I’m just glad we can change it on PC. Sucks for console players though…
