Seasoned RPG fans beware, do NOT select "Hard" as your difficulty . The developers do not understand the difference between "challenging" and "frustrating". The game stops being fun REAL quick.

Bosses are overpowered while you, leveling up to even higher than recommended levels, are flailing to advance and relying on luck (the possibility that MAYBE they won't spam that status-altering or instant-kill attack).

This persists for the entire game. Temporary characters are cursed with Max Stats (they will level up, but don't expect anything to come from that). This is an issue because you are forced to face enemies that WILL kill them with one hit. Someone new joined your team? Better spend about 3-4 hours grinding. And even then, good luck.

Zeromus is WAY too far from the last save point. So get used to "rage quit" and "continue" or else get ready to have all your hard work undone. Even then, cut scenes may be skippable, but if any of them involve a "battle sequence", not only are you unable to skip those, but the dialogue is achingly slow and you have to sit through all of it. Over, and over, and over again.

Final Fantasy IV is one of the greatest video games on the SNES, and this port has some serious audacity to be using that name. This is a cold, joyless chore, and fans deserve better.

I can't stand the ugly, half-a***d, silly 3D characters and environment. The original Super Nintendo version was beautiful, why do the characters have to look like prepubescent, cartoon, in-proportionate children? What is this, Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network?
I thought I could get past it when I bought it, but every time anyone speaks, or does anything for that matter in the game, the serious tone is ruined by the unavoidably foolish presentation. I just can't stand it.
I threw away my money. Don't buy this game if you have any sort of good taste.
If the devs want to port the original snes version without these nasty, ugly, childish, stupid graphics, I would pay 40 bucks for it: the game is a classic. Otherwise, unless you like playing a game that is written to be very serious and dark, but is ruined by your protagonist's cartoony head which is about 3 times larger than his emaciated body, don't buy it.

First off, I chose Normal difficulty. Let that be known.

I'm 30 minutes into the game, leveling up on the main map with Kain. Almost all of my fights start with a Surprised! or Back Attack! not in my favor.

Then I get into a fight and before I could even get one attack out there, four birds turned both my characters to stone and gave me a Game Over.

I got into another fight against those same 4 birds and barely won with Kain surviving. Now Kain is the leader with no obvious way of switching lead back to Cecil after healing him. (FYI, you do it on the game screen. You tap the character to change between party members)

Lastly, I have Auto enabled. And when I don't have Back Attack, and my ATB meter is full I should attack immediately. Not let my characters politely sit there and get hit by all 4-5 enemies before finally attacking. It might as well been Surprised or Back Attack at that point.

I don't know what you did to this game to create such frustration, but something needs to be done. I didn't choose Hard so it shouldn't be like this.

Get rid of those birds from the starting area is one idea. Lower the rate of Surprised and Back Attack is another. Change how fast Auto chooses my attacks.

And this is within the first 30 minutes of play!
