Status: Incomplete, Actively Supported

RB's Notes 1: As stated, this is incomplete from a script standpoint, save for terminology standardization. Currently this will be most useful for the QoL aspect, of which this particular iteration contains the following:

Combat flash removal
Halved encounter rate
Gold gain increased by 50%
Exp gain increased by 50%
Terminology standardization
Fast text rendering
Battle voices and FMV undubbed
Retranslated script
Deathblow prerequisite removal

RB's Notes 2: For the time being, to make maintaining this easier, I'll offer only only variant of the hack. I know this is a turn off to some, but it is far too time consuming to account for every permutation.
