This isn't the character being forced into the party like using a save editor. This brings me to the second feature: Beatrix perfectly integrated into the game as a playable character.Īnd by perfectly integrated I really mean it. Items and abilities are gained at different points than the original game.Īll together the changes make the game a fun different experience for the veterans of the game. However it also balances the skillsets of the playable cast, making some abilities weaker such as Zidane's grand lethal but makes the rest of his abilities stronger or entirely different. It makes enemies tougher and makes abilities cost more MP to use. The first is a rebalancing of the game that ups the difficulty and the balance.

My first time was as a kid on the PS1, disc 4 was broken so I was never able to complete the game.

I have recently been playing FF9 for the second time.
