RB's Notes 1: The main script is seemingly concluded at this point, which is a major milestone.
However, NPC dialogue still has ways to go.

On the QoL side, the parameters are the following:

Combat flash removed
Encounter rate halved
Gold gain rate doubled
Exp gain rate doubled
Terminology standardized
Fast text rendering enabled
Battle voices and FMVs undubbed
Retranslated script
Deathblow prerequisite removed
Damage cap removed

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.
