a huge, generous buffet of RPG with tonnes of flexibility in terms of combat options. the sheer amount of optional stuff in the latter chunk is WILD, however the plot suffers from the resulting directionlessness despite the nice character moments.
you can really see the ambition of the game struggle against the technology of the SNES. it wants to be more cinematic than it is allowed to be.
FF6 is great but i think FF4 is better.
