History VideoGame / PonyFantasyVI

* BewareTheSillyOnes: Is it any surprise that [[ChaoticEvil Discord]] was cast for the role of [[MonsterClown Kefka]]?

''[[http://rydelfox.deviantart.com/journal/Pony-Fantasy-VI-sprites-452506801 Pony Fantasy VI]]'' is a [[GameMod Romhack]] of ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVI'' that replaces the game's cast and [=NPCs=] with the characters of WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic. It was created by [=QuickFix=] (aka [=BossManJohn1=]). Several LetsPlay series of the game can be found on Website/YouTube. The main website was taken offline after [=QuickFix=] stopped working on it, but the final version is available at the Deviant Art page linked above.

* AlternateUniverse: Although the world of FFVI is very different from Equestria, the characters of WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic maintain their personalities for some rather interesting reactions to the game's events.

* EasyLevelsHardBosses: '''BIG TIME.''' WordOfGod says this is intentional. Most regular enemies give little trouble, and the way skills are redistributed leads to a few [[DiskOneNuke Disk One Nukes]]. The bosses on the other hand, are another story, especially seeing as Espers no longer give stat boosts. Even ''tutorial'' bosses can and will kill you if you're unprepared.

* GirlWithPsychoWeapon: Applebloom's Autocrossbow and ''[[ChainsawGood Chainsaw]]'', anyone?

** During the escape from Discord's Tower, Rainbow Dash remarks that she's becoming more and more like [[MyLittlePony Firefly]] every day. As [[WebVideo/FamiliarFaces CR]] once noted, Rainbow Dash is an {{Expy}} of Firefly.

* SheIsTheKing: The leader of the Empire is ''Emperor'' Gilda.

* ShoutOut: If you talk to Pinkie Pie while watching the opera, she talks about watching a theater production called [[Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate Manos: The Hooves of Fate]] which she describes as "Soooooooo boring and creepy" but that the boredom was alleviated by [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 some guys sitting in the front row making fun of the movie]].

** Both Luna and Applejack have had moves renamed from the original FFVI moveset to refer to other games. Sabin's AuraBolt is now [[StreetFighter Hadouken]], while Cyan's Tiger/Slash is now [[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Ryuenjin]].

** While examining the frozen Esper in Neigshe. Luna [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E1MareInTheMoon muses on how terrible it must be]] [[TakeThat to be frozen and imprisoned for a thousand years.]] Celestia can only give a [[NeverLiveItDown "..."]]

An UpdatedRerelease, titled "VideoGame/FillyFantasyVI," was created. Tropes specific to the remake should go on its page.

** A common combination in the original game was to equip Setzer with the Fixed Dice weapon and the Master's Scroll accessory, as it would cause several instances of repeated ridiculously-high damage against enemies. Now, however, the Fixed Dice are only able to be equipped on Pinkie Pie, who cannot equip the Master's Scroll.

** Both Luna and Applejack have had moves renamed from the original FFVI moveset to refer to other games. Sabin's Blitz is now [[StreetFighter Hadouken]], while Cyan's Tiger/Slash is now [[VideoGame/MegaManX4 Ryuenjin]].

--> '''Gilda''': "Get going you losers! We [[{{Pokemon}} gotta catch 'em all!]]"

* TheNotLoveInterest: Applebloom towards Trixie. Since they stand in for [[OfficialCouple Locke and Celes]], their relationship had to be changed presumably to avoid {{Lolicon}} based UnfortunateImplications. Applebloom is instead Trixie's MoralityPet and a good friend.

An UpdatedRerelease, titled "VideoGame/FillyFantasyVI," is in production by a third party, [=DrakeyC=]. Tropes specific to the remake should go on its page.

An UpdatedRerelease, titled "Filly Fantasy VI," is in production by a third party, [=DrakeyC=]. It features new and different gameplay adjustments, an overhauled story, and a new cast of characters, the latter two incorporating elements of the canon that have been introduced after the original game's production.

** On the Phantom Train, when Daring Do shows up to keep you from taking the treasure near the front of the train, Luna tells her [[QueenVicky "We are not amused!"]]

* CarryingTheAntidote: Discord drops a Harmony Band after your first battle with him, an item which blocks two of the statuses he frequently inflicted during the battle. That would have been really useful beforehand... then again, I guess this kind of behavior makes perfect sense coming from [[JustToyingWithThem Discord]].

* ShoutOut: If you talk to Pinkie Pie while watching the opera, she talks about watching a theater production called [[Film/ManosTheHandsOfFate Manos: The Hooves of Fate]] which she describes as "Soooooooo boring and creepy" but that the boredom was alleviated by [[MysteryScienceTheater3000 some guys sitting in the front row making fun of the movie]].

* PunnyName: Quite a few towns have been renamed with horse-themed puns as per tradition. Narshe is now Neigshe, Zozo is now Las Pegasus, Maranda is now Mareanda, etc.

** There are also at least two [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim Skyrim]] references. Naturally at least ONE GUARD will talk of being retired due to an arrow in the knee, and there is an enemy in the game who can blow an ally with Fus-Ro-Dah.

* SparedByTheAdaptation: [[spoiler:Despite playing the part of Shadow, Fluttershy's attempted suicide is interrupted by Rainbow Dash in the ending. She's still nowhere to be seen on the deck of the airship though]].

* {{Tsundere}}: Trixie is a rare non-romantic example of Type A, towards [[MoralityPet Applebloom]].

* VerbalTic: Scootaloo's "Ba-kak!"
* WhatTheHellHero: Applebloom recieves one in a {{Flashback}} when [[spoiler:an amnesiac Vinyl Scratch]] calls her out for putting her InHarmsWay.

* CrapsackWorld: It may be with ponies, but everyone who dies in ''FFVI'' ''will'' die here, and those who can die depending on your choices ([[spoiler:Fluttershy if you leave the Floating Continent too early, Sethisto if you don't catch enough healthy fish]]) aren't exempt either.

* TheDevTeamThinksOfEverything: Other than rearranging character movesets around for appropriate ponies such as Edgar's Tools for Apple Bloom, there are a few neat battle details. One example is whenever Luna uses Hadouken, instead of using her fists, her sprite roars with the '''ROYAL CANTERLOT VOICE'''.
** Ultros' BossBanter has been heavily edited with new character-specific taunts, see MythologyGag above. He also calls Luna [[FanNickname "Princess Capslock."]]

** Both Luna and Applejack have had moves renamed from the original FFVI moveset to refer to other games. Sabin's Blitz is now [[StreetFighter Hadouken]], while Cyan's Tiger/Slash is now [[MegaManX Ryuenjin]].

* HyperactiveMetabolism: Healing items are replaced by strains of apples and flavors of soda-pop.
