Aaaand into the trash it goes. Thanks again for ruining another SNES classic, Undertale.
And yes, weebos, I'm well aware that the sprite is genderless in Japanese, but that's not the point. You literally had to revise two existing lines to avoid using any specific pronouns in English, to greater effect on the audience. Are you telling me that the DIRTY SCAMMING DWARF NPC (among others) was educated with current-year PC sensitivity training? Get outta here.

It plays almost exactly like the original, including the somewhat wonky/buggy nature of movement and fighting.
You'll notice a lot of game journos claiming the remake introduces new issues, but they clearly never played the original or hardly remember it.
All that being said it's a very lazy remake, graphically it feels like some kind of mobile game. It doesn't really add anything to the original. I wouldn't get it at their current asking price, it's honestly worth half as much at best.

Supposedly you can attack 360 degrees or at least in 8 directions rather than the old four, and so can the enemies. It also takes the older mobile port enemy data being more active/faster so according to one source, fighting enemies with long range attacks suck more since they rapid spam blows to make it harder to approach. But hey, at least the menus and palettes don't glitch out, right?
SoM never got a decent fan translation. The VWF hack only has the guy flourish what's already said, kinda like a lot of the text in one of the FF4 Hard Type translations. >>14338545 The game had the issue of being rushed through for English in less than a month with little space from not downsizing the text width, so you have chunks of dialogue truncated and many scripting errors left in.

Whether or not the map uses updated sprites isn't the issue here. It's its mere existence. It doesn't belong, doesn't need to be there, and should be entirely optional, at the least.

Man, mankind, humankind, humanity, manpower, etc.. these words are properly neutral, in terms of historic grammar and syntax. Ignoring that whole "language changes, Grandpa!" argument, using "they" to refer to someone neutrally is not incorrect either and has been in practice for a long fucking time.
Of course, all of this assumes that it even matters. Vast majority of people don't give a fuck about pronouns. Only uppity retards with nothing else going for them will go out of their way to bitch about having the wrong pronouns used.

Written like a person that had to take ESL. Using they as an indeterminate gender pronoun is fine for plurality. We get it, though, you degenerates/faggots love telling everyone, at every possible opportunity, that you're degenerates/faggots.

What in the fuck? Anyway the game is possibly worth a pirate. Especially if you've never played it or finished it. Installing it to my HDD made the game full of microstutters, but that was fixed by reinstalling to my SSD. It's only like 8GB anyway. Also recommend changing BGM to original since the remakes are crap. Lastly, the only difference in game mechanics I've noticed is that I can't seem to switch control to another character. Polite sage because this thread went to shit.

Pretty much. I do like being able to attack in any direction though. There are a few more oversights I forgot though. One being that, when playing with a controller, your screen will gladly shut it self off if you haven't disabled that in your computer's power options. Another is that the mouse stays on the screen, so you have to move it to a corner. Not huge deals, but I don't get how they overlooked them.

I just recently replayed Secret of Mana. And while I loved it back in 1993 it's really disappointing to replay now. As a kid, I never realized how broken and unfinished the game was. Seriously there is a midpoint in the game where they just lose the plot and have your run around fighting reskins of bosses you already fought. Also, the combat is fucking garbage.
I really hope this remake actually improves the game. If its nothing more then an aesthetic update then into the trash. Personally, I sorta like the Low-Polly art style, if they fix some of the flaws and I might check this out. Did you know Secret of Mana was originally going to be a CD game but then when Nintendo stopped working with Sony Square had to salvage the project and it was split into two games? The split up project became Secret of Mana and Chrono Trigger. That is why Mana is rushed because they cut the budget mid-production.

I agree with with you all up to that point, which is bullshit, CT was done long before that,
SoM was indeed aimed for the first PS, after the split, they had to make do with the limitations of the snes
which turned up to be a marvel of technology to what the snes was capable of
either way the game was much more of concept of gameplay and engine, the live action fighting with rpg elements, open world, multi-characters, multi-players, etc
its only fault is with the story, which was incredibly superficial

Or, OP, you could stay consistent with the original work and not make it a male or female in the localization which fundamentally changes the character. Aren't all you fucking autists complete puritans when it comes to localizations, expecting it to be as direct as possible?
Or do you just want all localizations to change to YOUR tastes and only say localizations should stay true to the original when its convenient?
Jesus fucking christ, I guess now we're to the point where its only satisfactory if all localizations are changed to "Hitler saving Western Civilization from the degenerates."

It doesn't matter what it is, did or did not the original work use an English equivalent to they? I'm not going to compromise that anyone should change the original work in a localization for any sake. I don't care if faggots use "they" to describe someone or not.
Why should the work ever be censored in the localization to protect your feelings whenever its faithful to the original? Explain to me how this is social justice signalling whenever this was a direct translation WITHOUT accusing the original work of the same.
You can't have a direct localization and have them change this at the same time. You would be fundamentally changing the game. Localizers can either run hog wild with their "artistic choices" or they can't. Otherwise you get inaccurate piles of shit where they make whatever changes they want and even remove features and content.

Maybe because the SD1 remake a few years back was a dual mobile/Vita game (which Square then tried to make mobile only for the west, and subsequently somehow took four additional months to port the English mobile script to the Vita and put on the PSN)? I'm just guessing this would likely use the same graphical engine.

You mean Woolsey? The games he translated are some of the very few that ever got a retranslation in the first place. It's just when it happened, most of them were garbage though, and not necessarily more faithful to the script, they just kind of rewrite shit to add swear words.

I suppose Square games would be popular for doing so for given Square's been "the face" of JRPGs in the west, but as you've said, the retranslations aren't exactly proper either at times. Was speaking more of the likes of Breath of Fire II or Ar Tonelico 2, where the original scripts were horrendous and the outright goal for the patches was to actually have a much more faithful English version for western fans to enjoy them with. As for Woolsey, in some part, I'd say Square's as much to blame for not giving him more time to work on scripts, and not providing tools that would result in less trimming (admittedly I'm not sure when VWF fully got adopted for video games), but at the same time he did see fit to make his own changes at points. Western-Kefka being a huge example. I just know that certain people, like him or Vic Ireland, can have really diehard fans at times, which might impede proper fan retranslation efforts for particular games if they make it seem like it's just not that desired (like how the Lunar games haven't seen any fan retranslation efforts, at least that I'm aware of).

It's a fantasy game, applying real world science to it is retarded. The sprite is and has always been genderless. If you're an SJW you break out muh pronouns because it's about being a special snowflake and getting the privilege to speak like a retard. If you're a regular english speaker you use they because it's quick and convenient.
Or if you feel like imitating the french, you could use "him" because the male has priority. Funnily enough, before "they" was used, leftists were trying to make "her" the default pronoun. The use of they is an improvement over that.

Supposedly, the developers are considering finally making a Seiken Densetsu 5 if the remakes do well enough (they redid Final Fantasy Adventure as Adventures of Mana two years ago - a far better game than Sword of Mana, which I'm pretty sure killed the series).
Personally, though, I take it as Square Enix PR dangling a fake carrot in front of old fans.

I can understand it might be fun to let other people do their own takes on music, but it's probably best saved for general arranged OSTs that aren't used in games themselves. Probably should have just let Kikuta arrange his own themes solo for the entire game once more. Especially when the original version of said game is a big part of what a given composer is known for. That said, Kikuta seems to be stuck mostly getting work from indieshitters these days (Indivisible, Unraveled, YIIk, Pixel Noir), and for non-indie games winds up just one of a number of people involved with the OSTs (like this remake). For all I know, I might feel lucky just to be allowed to do a couple of official arrangements.
On a somewhat related note, I checked to see if the Kikuta thread on /vr/ was still up, since I remembered an anon dumping The Lost Files in a mega there. Thread's still up, but the mega got nuked (to be fair, it was over two years back that it was uploaded).

Doki Doki Panic had nothing to do with Mario. That whole "Doki Doki Panic was a Mario prototype all along" nonsense was a half-truth twisted to get clicks on dying sites - in reality, the tech demo was only said to be a Mario-style platformer.
In other words, Fake News.

Main point is that in some fantasy stories fictional races have alien pronouns. The point is that they are not humans, so the writers made up weird pronouns to emphasize the alien nature of the race. To translate that to "modern tumblr audience" you would have to make even sillier, and weirder, pronouns to make the intended effect, or just kill yourself.
Unfortunately, there is simply no way to win in this scenario. You either go full retard or burn the building while inside it.

Yeah, kind of sad that it took him half a decade to get back into things, and even then it was composing for eroge before he could get back to vidya proper (although its worth noting an MMO he'd apparently spent years composing for wound up cancelled between Koudelka and Sora no Iro, Mizu no Iro). Still, I liked Koudelka as well as the successors he didn't work on, so he at least inspired a good series even if the original was considered hit or miss worldwide and a compromised vision at that.

a sterile remake of a composition which is especially made with certain tools in mind. They should've respected the tunes and use tools to mimic the same chimes and sound as the sony chip while upping the quality.
Conversely they could've done an orchestrated version.
But no. no upgrade to the soundtrack. No finishing what they couldn't initially when the game was rushed or limited to the SNES. They just fucking made some shitty rearrange trying to be hip and modern and lazily copy pasted the snes game to 3D. Not even any new post game content.

That's exactly how the original worked. Individual attacks are staggered, and exploiting that can basically keep non-boss enemies in stunlock. The same applies with magic: You could cast a spell, recast it before the animation for it completed, and keep doing that over and over. The full damage of your spells will be delayed until your final cast, but for the entire duration of this the enemy is incapable of moving or attacking.
Also, both of the above applies to the player, too. If an enemy manages to get you stuck in a corner, they can theoretically keep you permanently in stun lock. Certain bosses have a much easier time doing this than others. And of course enemies casting spells on you will prevent you from moving or attacking once the animation starts.

There are already people writing blogs and autistically screeching that critics of the remake are blinded by nostalgia and they should be grateful that squeenix released a $40 remake with a butchered soundtrack, less detailed graphics, and 10X more glitches and bugs than the original.
Modern video games are terrible because faggots can't resist the taste of unwashed publisher dick. SoM remake takes everything bad from the original and adds everything bad about modern releases in one super-overpriced package, and people defend it.

The complaints about the music are dead on. With a few exceptions most of the new tracks are pure garbage. It doesn't take much explaining to see that, either, since all of the music is already available online.
The complaints about the graphics have been bothering me, though. I can get that the art style the series has wouldn't be to everyone's tastes, but I've seen shit like complaining that the remake isn't as gritty as the original. Since fucking when did the Seiken Densetsu series ever look gritty? What the fuck are people expecting the game to look like?

One autist's passion project is bound to look better than anything actually intended for release. He doesn't have to compromise on model, texture, lighting, or sound quality to make sure it can actually run at 60fps. Though, most modern developers can't even get their games running at 30fps without frame drops while looking halfway decent, either, so it's a moot point.

That was my point. Okay-tier nu-graphics remakes to refresh the classics for a new generation are fine, in fact the handheld 3D remakes of old FF & DQ games Squeenix started making soon after they stomped on CT Resurrection and then made crappy low-effort port when they finally got around to CT are good examples of that.
Even the rank incompetence of the translation and musical remix are ultimately minor issues, trivially fixed by modders if anyone really cares that much.
The only complaints in this thread I find legitimate are >>14339504 >>14340086 >>14343735 about how this opportunity to take what in the early 90s was a Shenmue-tier dream project, but would now be a slightly below average AAA game, and put the pieces back together right, was utterly wasted reproducing the hashwork squeezed into that SNES cart.

The DS remake of 3 wasn't even harder than the NES original. On average it was easier simply because you had less enemies to deal with, and outside of the final two dungeons you didn't really run into common enemies that benefited from having more HP or getting to attack twice.
Those final two dungeons were fucking cancer, though. Especially when it came to bosses, and especially Cerberus with his three fucking hits per turn.

Every single change to the game's monsters actually a pose a significant problem for an RPG heralded for its gameplay. There's hardly any other way of looking at it other than an attempt at making the game patently unfun. If you think superficial shit like the characters now having the depth of bricks instead of pieces of cardboard handedly offsets that criticism, you were never a fan of oldschool Final Fantasy.

Speaking of the Lich theme, Dark Oracle, this is what they did to it in detail. Honestly if this were a different game that didn't have a legacy, it'd be serviceable, maybe.
But what the composer did was cover up the original Balinese orchestra style and "tchek tchek" chanting melody with a very loud extra baseline, a second melody and a loud yell from another singer. The result is that there's no clear melody and it's more of an assault on the ears, and the ORIGINAL melody takes a backseat to the new melody in regards to sound balance. It comes off as arrogant, there's no respect for the original theme.
The original had a simple melody and focused around that, using the strange instrument and vocal choice to characterize the song, which stood out among the soundtrack since nothing else did that and it made the boss memorable.
