  A bit deeper than the original. Not sure if you can still get it with the pixel remasters as the new hotness. But as you can see, I've put in 1400+ hours. So obviously I either enjoy it or hate myself.

  What you should know: 1. Non-battle gameplay is locked at 30 fps. Battle's are locked at 15 fps. This is because the PC version is based on the Android port that is based on the DS port. Kind of like an emulation. The 15 fps isn't too debilitating given this is a turn based game but there is noticable input lag that can be annoying and the animation looks stiff. 2. I tested resolutions from 1920 x 1080 all the way down to 800 x 600 and you really don't notice much of a difference in game. The textures up close (usually during cutscenes) look terrible and neither an increase nor a decrease in resolution seemed to help much at all. 1080p DOES however make the excellent FMV's look even more stunning. Seriously, those are friggin beautiful. 3. The game itself has really hooked me so far. Cecil is way more interesting then any other protaganist I have played as in quite some time. Really makes you wonder how SE could have screwed up so badly with the more recent iterations of Final Fantasy. For some reason, I never got around to playing this even though I've played every other FF that's come stateside and am really glad I picked this one up. As I have not played any other version of this game I can't give a good comparison review to other versions. The good is the game itself is great and looks pretty great most of the time. I enjoy the story and despite the 15 fps lock in battle after you get used to it it's not a big deal HOWEVER, If you port a game to PC it's pretty inexcusable to lock framerates so low. As PC gamers, we want to play the game as silky smooth as possible and I can understand why people are upset about this. Hopefully someone can mod this quickly. All in all, I'm glad I purchased this game. I can finally play the FF most people praise as the best one ever made. So far, this game really delivers and I'm having a-lot of fun. Take care all I will update my review if I have any further info or thoughts on the game as I continue playing. Peace!

  Great remake, bad PC port. Get the mod that increases combat FPS above 15, and be able to enjoy the game's wonderful story of redemption!

  This version of Final Fantasy IV is not the original, but a PC port of the Android app. The android app is a port of the DS version with improved text and sound and neat speech bubbles with character thoughts. It removes one DS feature, a little customizable eidolon named whyt. Whyt sucks anyway. The game is good. I will say that. You don't need more then 30 frames to play in this style of game, and the resolution and graphics are pretty decent. The menu's are obviously designed for a phone, but the game plays great with a controller. The story is THE BEST of the final fantasies. You will soon forget this is a port or any stupid problems you thought you had. I won't spoil anything but this version adds some unique post game challenges to overcome in the form of some superbosses. Also this game is hard as crap. Leveling and grinding isn't as important as smart boss tactics. The pricetag is a bit crazy high for a port though. I reccomend grabbing this baby on the upcoming christmas sales, because we know it will be there.

  I definitely believe that this is the best version of IV. The augment system allows players to give the main cast new abilities that can make a character's kit a lot more flexible. Giving Cecil access to Protect, Shell, and Raise gives him some extra utility as well. This version makes plenty of good quality of life changes that really help to speed up the flow of the game, such as changing when some spells are learned, New Game+, and an option to change the difficulty. The script is also improved from the first US iteration, and the voice acting really does a lot to aid this new script.

Experienced [i]Final Fantasy[/i] players will tread on familiar ground while newcomers will adapt gradually thanks to the game's instructional early stages. +Not another grinding fest: Bosses require strategic planning not just level superiority. +Length: Neither too short for gamers who enjoy secrets, nor too long for those who get bored easily. +Characters, NPCs, companions with interesting background and distinctive personalities. +Remade: Enjoy one of the best [i]Final Fantasy[/i] games with remade graphics, remastered music score and optional bosses/rewards. +Replay value: Keep certain key items and abilities, fight bosses exclusively to NG+, etc. +Controls: Customizable in-game settings, controller support. +For seasoned adventurers and newcomers: Normal and Hard difficulty modes. [u][h1]Weaknesses[/h1][/u] -Good old days: Fans of the original may find that this 3D version lacks the artistic depth of the original in sections such as boss modeling or spell casting presentation. -Price: Preferably buy it during a sale. -A few key items (e.g. Adamant armor) have an extremely low drop rate which makes the related to them achievements quite frustrating to obtain. -Comparison to Nintendo DS: Basically the same port; developers could have spent more time editing certain sections of the game such as battle speed, visual effects, etc. -Auto-level up: Every time you level up, your stats are automatically allocated with no option to customize your character's attributes as you wish, making each character locked to a specific class.

  Had this game on the SNES in the mid 90s, got about 3/4 of the way through before that cart was lost (which sucks since that is worth a pretty penny nowadays) Got it later on DS, lost it along with the DS during a move. Got it in on Steam, played up 'till almost the end, got distracted, didn't play through about 2-3 new computers since buying the game. Now, after playing on and off for close to 30 years, finally beat the game. Feels almost like an accomplishment.

  It's a very charming game that's easy enough to get through. I didn't have a ton of grinding to do so it felt very smooth to go through but that will depend on your play style I guess. If you want to try an old Final Fantasy game to get into the franchise, I would strongly recommend this one.

  This is the laziest port they possibly could have made. It's literally a PC port of a mobile port of a Nintendo DS port. It runs terribly (locked at 30fps and 15fps in battle), doesn't have any additional PC features, the UI is way to big (looks like a mobile port zoomed in), etc. FFIV is one of my favorite titles of all time but this is just a lazy money grab. Better off just emulating the original.

  This is not a review of the game FFIV, which has been out forever now, more of a review of the new 3D version and its port to Steam. Personally, I think FFIV is one of the best FF games ever, definitely in my Top 3. It introduced the first complete and in depth story to the franchise and had one of the best soundtracks in video game history. Here are my pros and cons for the remake: Pros: + The GFX are great for a remake, definitely worthy of any FF fan to make them want to play through the game again + In game cut scenes and small facial expressions are an added treat + Voice acting is not bad, I was actually shocked that there was voice acting in this game and it's not terrible + Ability to skip cut scenes, which is great so if you're stuck and keep dying, you don't have to keep watching them + Each weapon in the game has its own unique look, so not all weapons look the same when equipped, same goesf or shields + Summons look AMAZING! + The remastered music is great, it's what kept me playing until I beat the game + When the game is completed, there is a type of "New Game +" feature where you can play the game again with all items/equipment Cons: - Rare bugs during voice dialogue where one sentence may overlap another - There are some parts in the game, that I felt, deserved cut scenes - There is an in ability to move the "Switch Rows" selection during combat, too many times I accidentally selected to switch rows when I thought I was selecting Item. I would much rather prefer it being either a different button or just hit right on the battle menu screen to select(which I believe the original SNES version was like that) - When defeating certain bosses or if something important happens, you can collect "Augments" which gives you an additional menu selection in battles(for example, you can use bardsong and not be Edward). Only down side is, you have to pick them up(they will sparkle on the screen). I missed too many because I didn't know there was some to pick up or it was placed somewhere that I couldn't even notice it. Would be better if you just got them automatically. Overall, play this game. Whether you are a die hard fan or just getting into Final Fantasy, this is definitely worth picking up.
