I loved FFVII when it first came out. Â It was a superb RPG. Â But I am so over it's hype and crazy fandom. Â You know they are going to ruin it's story with all the added filler crap they have created thanks to Dirge of Cerberus and Crisis Core.
FFVI has a GBA version with a better translation. It's worth checking out for anyone who hasn't. The difference in story translation is pretty large and changes the story and characters a bit.
The only thing keeping the GBA port from being the definitive version of FF6 is the terrible sound quality. But I believe there's a patch floating around that fixes that if you're using an emulator to play it..
My SO is a huge FF fan. He has a weird relationship with FFVI because he was told that FFVI was the best in the series but when he played it, he hated it. Over time he's come to like it, but thinks it's over hyped and that the original translation is a nightmare. But he also loves the music of FFs and laments the GBA version having such terrible music.
Last time he played a modded rom that had a fan translation, he liked it alright but still preferred the GBA translation. I am sure he would LOVE a way to fix the GBA rom's terrible music.
