I am so happy this game got a bit of a renaissance because the original SNES game was so far ahead of its time. It is simply one of the best games ever made. A ~20hr RPG that plays off a bunch of different genres, has fun mechanics, memorable boss fights, and tons of extra stuff to explore just checks all the boxes for me. It is a miracle modern-day Square Enix did not mess up this remake but it's truly a wonderful rework of the original game. The HD-2D style is so perfect for this. The SNES game is still worth revisiting and there is an excellent translation patch available, but either way, you're going to have a great time!
