That's a matter of opinion, when you come down to it. Like I said before: fixing translation errors and rewording awkward sentences is one thing, but removing a perfectly good line like, "Call me a treasure hunter or I'll rip your lungs out!" and replacing it with, "How rude!" is clearly just for the sake of censorship. That's what I'm annoyed about here.

It's forgivable. It's their game and the touches are only something to mildly snicker at. Try reading the dialogue throughout the game side to side with FFIII and get back to me.
I disagree with you here, but whining won't do much to change the game's script. At least they did the music right.

Get that from RPGamer's review?
Nope, I got it from playing the damn game. I don't even read RPGgamer. They only changed it to "Orthos" in Dawn of Souls, and when I heard of FFVI Advance, I was pretty sure they would mess shit up again. Like others have said before me, the renaming got a little out of hand. I mean, Lightbringer? What the fuck?

Wait? So you're Japanese? This game is translated more true to the original FFVI...
I just called it FFVI so no one would eat my ass for using "improper" naming, and also partially just out of habit. I love FFIIIj, so naturally, I'm more inclined to call that FFIII.

Ugh... the PS1 release is an abomination...
Agreed 100%, actually; I just remember the dialogue being a bit more fluid than in the SNES version. But those load times were absolutely horrible. I couldn't even finish the game.

Oh ok cool. So they didn't mess up the script? They just made some changes you disagree with? Cool.
I probably used too strong of a word for what I was trying to convey, hence our argument.

You can have an opinion. You're just not completely sure what it is. I'm pretty sure you aren't totally stupid but I can still call you an idiot. Just the same as you can call me one.
I was actually trying to put more emphasis on the "I'll rip your lungs out" than the don't call me an idiot part. To be honest, I don't care if you call me an idiot, and I won't hesitate to call you an idiot if I feel it's necessary.

All I was really trying to say in the first place was, "If they ever end up remaking Chrono Trigger, or making a re-release of it, I hope they don't make excessive/unnecessary changes to the script or item names."
