Awful Fantasy III

Overview

Awful Fantasy is basically a retelling of the "geek forum experience" from the early 2000s, relying on a LOT of humor and inside-jokes from that era across multiple forums. The most prolific, of course, being Something Awful.

Every single thing in this game has been changed, and there seems to be no particular rhyme or reason for anything other than "why not?" Some enemies auto-kill themselves, a new spell was intentionally programmed to include both the Relm Sketch bug and the Dischord bug all in one, every character has a superweapon, all sprites are different...

It's actually quite the hacking feat considering tools were not super available back then and we English speakers didn't see any real FF6 hacks that weren't just bug fixes or those weird "super faithful to Japanese" transliterations.

The game will absolutely troll you (don't open the trapped chest in the school or go right at the start of the game in the magitek armor) and makes no apologies for what it is.
