    Dread submitting hacks to romhack websites?

    Crave visibility for your hack on release?

    Not wanting to bother with social media?

    You don’t have to go at it alone.

    Under a new pilot, mod-makers can engage clymax of FFV Central to serve as an exclusive publisher of select mods they’ve made. This service is provided at no charge.

    Depending on the hack, publication can include a custom title screen, a teaser video, a written promo, cross-promos across various social media channels of FFV Central and its affiliates, and so on.

    You can find some examples below.

    Although we are not an anti-AI community, no AI is used for the publication writeups or images.

    The mod author retains full rights to the mod and author attribution for the mod.

    The publisher reserves the right to turn down a publishing request for any reason or for no reason.

    All rights belong to their respective owners. No laws are violated by the mod or the publication of the mod’s patch.

    For more details or to discuss a publishing arrangement, DM clymax via Discord or Twitter/X.

  • “Library of the Ancients” Announced

    Join the Bloggers Guild of FFV Central

    Volunteer openings are now available to our community members.

    What You’ll Do

    • Work with our bloggers to pitch and cover topics relevant to our reader community.

    Example Topics

    • Any news, recommendation, review, guide, etc., that relates to retro-gaming or modding or either scene. In many cases, the topic itself must not be a plug of your own things, although having a signature is allowed as described below.

    What You’ll Get

    • Exposure on a unique, ad-free web platform focused on retro and modded gaming.
    • A custom web signature where you are encouraged to plug your own socials and/or projects, including commercial projects.
    • A web badge for reaching certain blogging milestones.
    • A unique Discord role along with access to a private guild channel.
    • Learn from fellow writers—for example, one of our writers has attended E3 as a gaming journalist.
    • Your work stays your own.

    Requirements

    • Currently, although we are not an anti-AI community, use of AI is not allowed for the purposes of the guild.
    • It probably goes without saying, but plagiarism is strictly prohibited.
    • Discord membership is required unless an exception is made.
    • No minimum requirement when it comes to blogging frequency. But a guideline is one post per month on average. Bloggers with no posts in the past three months are deemed inactive for the purposes of the guild.
    • Note, FFV Central reserves the right to decline an applicant for any reason or for no reason.

    For more info or to apply, please contact clymax via Discord.

  • Aspiring Content Creators Guild Announced

    Memberships Now Available

    For clymax’s projects, click here. You can also follow him on YouTube or Twitter.

    A guild for aspiring content creators and affiliated with FFV Central has been announced courtesy of clymax.

    Members accepted into the guild will gain access to a private section in the FFV Central Discord. There is no cost to be a member.

    In the Discord section, they can share tips and techniques with like-minded content creators, brainstorm and discuss video concepts, and explore potential collab opportunities in content creation.

    The vision for the guild is that together, we can take on the algorithm better. Just like a full party in the FF series is stronger than going solo.

    Eligibility requirements are as follows.

    1. You’re looking to grow a channel on YouTube. Not on TikTok, IG, Twitch, Facebook, Rumble, etc.
    2. Your channel coverage must include classic Final Fantasy (I-VI) in some way, shape, or form. At least one such piece of content is required to already exist on your channel. Any game version is OK. OK to also cover modern Final Fantasy. OK to also cover other JRPG franchises or other game genres. Classic FF does not have to be the main focus of your channel.
    3. Longform videos, shorts, and livestreams are all OK as a focus.
    4. Your channel must not be monetized and must never have been monetized. Achieving monetization as a guild member will not jeopardize your guild membership. Monetization as a streamer on a streaming platform is OK.
    5. You are serious about growing your channel and getting and staying monetized, even if it is only as a hobby. You want more than a channel of random gaming or modding clips.
    6. You must meet YouTube’s monetization factor of three uploads in the last ninety days, on a rolling basis.
    7. On your channel, you have not and will not buy subs or views except as permitted by YouTube, e.g., the YouTube Promote feature.
    8. You are not required to be a modder, although modders who are otherwise eligible are welcome.

    Due to the nature of the guild and the community that are being built, membership cannot be guaranteed, although your interest is appreciated. FFV Central reserves the right to decline membership for any reason or for no reason.

    To apply or for more information, please reach out to clymax via the FFV Central Discord or via DM on this website or via Discord.
