Hack description

From the readme:

FinalFacelift is a fun patch that changes the look, but none of the gameplay, of Final Fantasy for the NES. It's not a game itself, but only a patch file specifying minor changes.

That's a very modest description of this hack. Here's a short list of changes:

Five letter character names

Default names for characters

Retranslated names for items, equipment, and monsters

Touched up dialog

Enhanced graphics (With censored graphics restored)

It may not seem like a lot, but it has been the base for countless Final Fantasy hacks and offers an enhanced gameplay experience on its own.

This is what we call "The Good Stuff"	Rustus	2020-12-04	Version 1.30
A fantastic base for a hack, but a great hack by itself. I briefly attempted to Let's Play this hack before the car accident earlier this year destroyed the computer that previously had my playthrough, but once I was back on my feet again, this hack was what I came back to first. It's simple, but don't confuse simple for lackluster. 10/10 worth all the time spent playing.
