One of the journalists was an RPG freak, and I read his article on FF IV (II) with huge interest and a lot of desire. Only problem was that an US import cost 200 USD and required an adapter (which, according to official Nintendo lore, was likely to make your SNES explode). Hence, I didn’t get FFIV at the time, but having worked like an idiot for a whole summer picking golf balls, I could finally afford an US RPG import. Only problem was that FFVI featured copy protection, meaning that you’d need another 300 bucks to make it work properly. I bought Chrono trigger instead, and loved it. It was only after having worked like an idiot for another summer that I could afford to mod my SNES and then buy FFVI. I absolutely loved it, though, and it is still a highlight of visiting my parents (once a year) to start up that Narshe intro. I don’t need it for CT anymore, having bought the DS port.

A long rant here, but I am very happy that you treat this game (I’ve loved every part of this series except possibly Donkey Kong, which happened before my day). I love your work, Parish, keep it up.
