I recently watched some of your youtube videos about a FF6 hack that you are playing that is hard mode. I then saw they are a year old. I just wanted to know, is the hack of this thread different than that one?

Most likely referring to Elite Fantasy 3 the ROM hack that I did but was lost to a hard drive failure. This is a different hack.
My hack wasn't quite as... in-depth as this one. I didn't touch stat progression, instead I just removed all level up bonuses and spells from Espers (essentially making them useful only for their summon). I put spells on equipment so that different characters had different sets of spells. And I think I did a bit of a better job with the actual monster/boss changes but that's obviously imo.
I like this hack, but what bothers me is that random monster encounters are more challenging than the bosses. Very few bosses are actually challenging, only Dadaluma and Number 028 (boss after Ifrit/Shiva). A lot of bosses like Flame Eater, Atma Weapon etc can't cause a whole lot of significant ruckus, but they just have tons of HP/defense. Kinda like if Vex Thal was patched into FF VI.
The World of Ruin bosses I've fought so far have been complete push overs. The rest of the game completely rapes my face, because apparently I'm supposed to be 20 levels higher or something (based on that thread that was posted where the dude recommends level 45 for Tritoch).
