Final fantasy iv ultima and final fantasy vi t-edition are good entry points without playing the originals?

I asked myself this question since I played final fantasy vii with mods and I asked myself this again since I was deciding to play FFIV or FFVI after ending final fantasy V, these hacks are good or better than the originals?

Well the GBA version fixes some issues with the SNES original, but honestly every version of the game is good. Love the DS one too.

I would say no, those mods both change a lot of content. They aren't just improvements they make significant changes.

For FFVI if you are okay with some difficulty but the story remaining mostly the same, I'd suggest the mod Brave New World

For FFIV? I'd Suggest the GBA, DS or PSP versions

Probably GBA, or PSP if it's just GBA with better graphics and not a port of DS. The 3D remake has completely different new systems and bonus content, and the overall balancing makes for a much harder experience than the original.

For FFIV, I'd say go with the Namingway Edition. It's a great translation and the changes are exclusively QOL.

For FFVI, Ted Woolsey Uncensored is the best possible version in my view, especially for a first timer.

I'd actually agree with both of the posts that came after my previous one.

Ahh... no. Not for a first time player. Main story might be the same, but there is an ungodly amount of 'comic relief' dialogue added. Really would affect a first impression. It's also pretty mechanically demanding for someone not familiar with FF6.

T-edition changes the story less, but is pretty different from vanilla. Honestly, with FF6, maybe use a big fix patch and nothing else. Don't think you need to fuck with that game too much.

On a tangent, generally speaking, you probably want to avoid that one crack ship-looking FF6 hack that adds a bunch of unrelated SNES final fantasy characters to the playable cast.

Are you talking about the return of the dark sorcerer hack?

I have no idea off the top of my head, but I remember seeing what I think was Kain Highwind in a screenshot of the character select screen.
