>>743703326>Square: he doesn't look enough like a Kingdom hearts character. Fix it!There's a clear shift in art style from a stylized but realistic to KH. KH shit is flowing through the company consciously or unconciously.
They hired the cheapest company they could/thread
It's awful
Square likes to lose the source code and assets of their games
>>743704089I wonder how much space it would even take up.
Outsourced
>>743703473>KH lives rent free in this anon's headLMAO. Funny since KH hasn't had FF shit in years.
>>743704880Not that much in the grand scheme of things, but Sony was in the business of saving money from their million dollar blockbusters by trashing assets it would have cost thousands of dollars to save over a decade..
Anons really be like> REEE WHY DOESN'T YUNA LOOK LIKE A DOWNY ANYMORE REEEE
>>743705178which one isn't supposed to have downs?
>>743705178The story works better if she’s somewhat ugly because otherwise you have to wonder how she hasn’t been raped by now, which would make it unrealistic for her to so easily fall in love with tidus.
>>743705178I can't tell which one is supposed to be the remaster
>>743703737What the fuck thats worse than PS2
>>743705737Based chad Tidus giving the ugly downie chick a chance to feel loved before she's sacrificed
>>743703326The point of remasters is a jewish plot to corrupt late 90s and early 2000s classics to make modern slop look better in comparison.The zoomer can look at a censored and butchered remaster and tell you that things weren't better back then.
>>743703326Meg Ryan before and after botox.png
>>743705014That's what annoys me the most, they never added more FF characters, because they had their lame ass OCs.>the final boss of FF7 remake is a giant heartless Nomura has done irreversible damage to squenix designs.
Meanwhile FF12 chads got a proper remaster. FF 10 sissies keep losing.
>>743703326I was about to say that for some reason, even though every remaster/definitive edition in existence has this problem, only FFX consistently gets called out for it (and GTA I guess), but here we have a defender. He's definitely not shitposting, I'm sure.
>>743703326are there any mods to fix this?
>>743705890Too bad it butchered the game mechanics.Square accidentally made a good Final Fantasy game once with some challenge and a nice freeform jobless class system.It took them 6 months to panic and release the IZJS version which replaced it with a generic class system. It still maintained some challenge at least, though it buffed almost every player ability and removed the 9999 damage limit to trivialize postgame bosses.Then TZA made it a completely easy mode game by giving everyone 2 jobs.
>>743705956Yeahhttps://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasyxx2hdremaster/mods/227There's mods to restore the PS2 face for every main character.However, lots of the issues with the new models is the awful new lightning so that can't be fixed. Old models can look awesome when they have proper shadows on their face. Remaster makes everything glow and removes shadows.
>>743705915Big fan of the "let's make him look like an infant for no reason" school of character design.
>>743705890FFXII is the only one that had a good remaster. Even its music!But why? What are the reasons?
I think we're quickly reaching the point where fan made AI texture upscale remasters will be far more soulful than remakes, since they at least keep the same artstyle.
>>743703326Which one did they use for the Vita?
>>743703326jeetsourced
>>743703326remasters are for the unwashed masses who dont care about quality they just care that its new.
>>743705890yeah, too bad the actual game is still trash lmao
>>743705737It was a crime to give some of you people internet access.
>>743706409all I care about is that my hours get tracked and that people see I'm playing it. so therefore, I'm forced to play the remaster on steam
>>743703326Even the remastered soundtrack was a downgrade, which is shame because both Hamauzu and Nakano re-arranged a number of their own compositions.
>>743706873You know there's great lifehack. You don't actually need to play the game, you can just leave it running in the background and use Steam Achievement Manager to get 100%.
>>743705178when ur mentally retarded and desperate to defend an objective demaster
>>743706873Imagine pretending to enjoy a hobby just so people who don't even like you, can see you're engaging in it. You are gay, you are a faggot for that.
>>743705890FF12's remaster was bad too, just not unplayable bad. It's nice that the PC port has mods to make it perfect.
>>743705915This is just your anecdotal experience mainly, but FFX has been consistently discussed because it was one of the first remasters and it sold a lot so a lot of people know about it plus a lot of people emulated the game. FFX is just a popular game overall. Also it's not a nintendo game which has tendies defending it.
>>743706052>>743705956the big problem is the animations which mods don't fix.
>>743707248BRO SHE LOOKS LIKE A FUCKING MAN LMAOO
>>743707603so true frfr
>>743707259>pretendingI actually play the game, unlike you bro. you probably don't have friends on steam or something lols. you wouldn't get it
>>743703326The remaster looks so fucking bad in motion, couldn't stand it after five minutes. Tidus looks horrifying.I think webms like this >>743707764 get the point across even better than static comparisons. Horrible.
>>743708025She's hot in both
>>743708025ps2: balding man faced bitchremaster: tranime whore for fat incels to masturbate
Nu-Yuna looks way better. Same with Lulu. Only the men look worse.
>>743707764which1 is the remaster here? i think bottom looks better, unless that scene is supposed to be super lit up.
Big heathen titties
>>743708257
>>743708294Goth bitches are ugly
>>743708260the top is the remaster
>>743708294aw man the removed the sexy mole from Lulu? i didnt know that, thats bad man.
>>743708260bottom is OG, besides the obvious facial differences you can tell by the subtitles
Noo, my anime game looks more anime now! How horrible!
>>743707845You're barking up the wrong tree, saying stupid shit like that.It's my favorite game of all time. But I can tell you're retarded by the way you type. Typically, I'd assume you're being ironic. But you are really that fucking dumb.If you ever thought about suicide, I think you were on the right track.
when is the remake
>>743708367>>743708348I like how remaster is more colorful but they changed a suck ton of shit and it looks bad. They basically made new character models for every single character of the main cast.
>>743708449Chudus
>>743708025this anon gets it >>743708063fuck FFX though, garbage game, like all final fantasies
>>743708671
>>743708741looks like bad SFM
>>743708671>Let me join this thread and read through it about a series I don't likeYou weren't breastfed were you? You drank the formula and it shows.
I wish Jecht was my daddy
>>743703326Bogged
>>743706045>Too bad it butchered the game mechanics.Zodiac Age is better than Vanilla FF12.
>>743709303more casual*
Why did all women in ff 10 look like men?
>>743705890Zodiac slop? You didn't beat the game.
>>743709362Rikku didn't
I never played ffX + X-2, i would like to get into it.What is the best way to play the original game if i don't have a ps2? Ofc u will tell me on a emulator, but which one and also how can i get the best experience out of it, like would u recommend graphical mods? And also are there upscale mods for the cutscenes?If yes please share.
>>743708821What were they fucking thinking?
>>743709567Just play with remaster
>>743708462>blah blah I don't have friends on steamwe get it lil guy
>>743709593Nah anons allrdy showed that it looks like sht compared to the original. Ps2 version looks better.
>>743709621Why would that matter for a single player game, you retard.God, you're slow. I don't have parasocial relationships with people I don't know. Which is the biggest flaw your generation has, lonely motherfucker.
>>743709584>Lets just fuck it upI really don't know to be honest.
>>743709859Yuna could do way better
>>743709567pcsx2 with the skipdraw to disable DOF(it upscales poorly)
>>743709360>>743709373Love this contrarian revisionism. I remember long before the remaster everybody said to emulate the Zodiac version.
>>743709969okay? I was one of those people telling you to do that I had a guide and everything
>>743709362they made them more realistic in the art workeverything looks way more like irl Japanese
>>743709926Holy shit the expressions on the demaster are this much shit??
>>743703326Until the UE6 remake we're stuck with this version
>>743706045I haven’t played 12 yet but I was doing research into the best version and you’re the first person I’ve seen say the original was better than the Zodiac one
>>743703737It was fine when SADX did it though lmao
>>743704089Cool so why does the rest of the game look fine
>>743707476>it was one of the first remastersYeah that's pretty fucking anecdotal you zoomoid newfag piece of shit.
Speaking of dream protags and remasters, someone post that shitty Klonoa remaster that re-killed the franchise.
>>743710546I guess I should have said HD remasters? Calm down spergy.
>>743710489it doesn't you blind zoomie motherfucker
>>743706121Went all out to try and save the worst FF, like how Pixel Remaster tries to fix 2's gameplay.
>>743707892>>743707764It legit looks barely any different and the animation looks the same.
>>743710371IZJS shoehorned a strict classes system into a game designed with a completely freeform skill system.Since the game became harder with the now restricted abilities, it buffed everything out of proportion and removed the damage limit to make the game easier. It was still SOMEWHAT balanced, but the fun of freely building whatever characters you wanted was gone.Zodiac Age then gave everyone a second class, turning the game laughably easy.
>>743710842b8
>>743710489Like you, I despise when people bring that up. Because it's stupid, and its source is some corporate nobody. Oh, they lost the source code?That's why those cutscenes are completely unchanged from the 2001 release? They did not remake those.It's a lie, and Square just shat the bed.
>>743710842
>>743710842Stop frying your brain with tiktok scrolling all day, then maybe u will be able to see the difference u blind flashed face dumb fuck.
>>743710872the classes were overtuned too, plus you could grind more easily with the speed up buttonIZJS was a lot easier and TZA is a completely and massive joke difficulty wise
>>743710092The models in the remastered version are incapable of closing their eyes for some reason. >>743703326People think that Square only fucked up the models, but they also fucked up the lighting and effects as well. It is by every metric one of the most objectively bad remasters ever made.>>https://x.com/Bionic_Catbus/status/1256031711856668673
>>743711134Another example of the same problem with the eyes not closing properly.
>>743703737That's super lazy...
It sucks that they are most likely never going to go back to fix it. They had the perfect excuse with the 25th anniversary and the Switch 2 port, but they are too busy milking Final Fantasy VII to give a shit.
>>743710872>>743711046I’ve seen a lot of people say if you play the remaster don’t use the second classes as it wipes out a lot of the difficulty but yeah I thought everyone loved the class system changes from IZJS
>>743711498there's no fixing it, only remaking from the ground up with the source code that was lost anyway
>>743709567Emulated with the FFX international edition from there you can play the dubbed or undubbed, if you want to take it portably with Android play it on NetherSX2.
>>743711134Thank the Heavens that somebody finally mentioned how atrocious the lighting is.They made everything brighter, but in doing so, it fucked up all the shadows and changes the mood of certain scenes.By adding more color to everything, they ended up making everything look flat.When FFX was already a colorful game! How'd you fuck this up so badly.
>>743705915How could they not even get the thickness of those straps on her arms right, don't they paint on top of the old texture? I genuinely find it puzzling.
>>743711409
>>743711540>but yeah I thought everyone loved the class system changes from IZJSThere were always critics and if you actually think about it, it's dumb. That's not to say we dislike jobs though those are cool. But FF12 wasn't built for them and IZJS was rushed out.>Here's a system that lets you create your own jobs, eventually everyone can be anything>now we will give you overturned presets insteadwhere's the benefit?
>>743703737NOOOOOO They weren't supposed to appear in cutscenes! Aiiiieeee Nomura-sama~
>>743711540IMO the class system was putting a bandaid on a gaping wound, it didn't fix the actual problem with the license system (that it's lame as fuck), just split it into pieces.
>>743711498Everything in the remake looks like it's made of plastic. It's really off-putting.
>>743703326Okay, do me a favor. Cover up the bottom half of the image. Tell me, in what way does that, in isolation, look “good”. FFX is a hideous game, regardless.
>>743711716Holy shit! It got worse!Two cameras are lost technology, and nobody caught her chopped arm?
>>743712023Top is not uncanny valley in isolation while bottom is.
>>743712023You jews really hate beauty.
when tidus finally gets the climatic meeting with his dad inside sin and he triumphantly tells him "i hate u dad" i felt that and got shivers
>>743703326I always wondered about this. Even if they lost the original models you could still rip them from the original game and work on those right? How do a bunch of nerds on the internet know how to rip the models for their retarded XNALara poses but Square can't do it?
>>743703326i still dont understand how square enix would allow this to happen. hell i dont understand why any company or creative would allow this to happen. why spit on your history this badly? i will never understand
>>743712362were you playing the demaster zoom zoom
>>743712407Square-Enix is run by retards.
>>743712419Square's history ended in 2002
>>743712421im 32 years old and the only version i've ever played was ps2
>>743710930That's why they had to use fan wikis to make the modern remaster of FFT?
>>743711134FFX is particularly bad but I don't think I've ever seen a remaster that didn't fuck up lighting, or transparencies or other effects. None of them are ever truly faithful to the original.
>>743712584Who is "they"You don't even have a name to attribute these quotes to. Just some random fucker, who you take at face value.Now, I've never been dumb enough to believe corporations. But that's probably why you're vaccinated.
>>743712362I assume it sounded so bad in English because the voice sample was so short in Japanese.
>>743712407>be retarded exec>hire cheap studio to remake game>studio of hacks remakes game>sell game, make a lot of money>"holyshitimagenius"they don't care about quality
>>743710489it doesn't
>>743713051dumb nigger
>>743703326They outsourced it to the cheapest bidder. The KH remasters were done in house (with KH1 also apparently no longer having source code) and they were fine.
>>743707874>>743707874>>743708348One is Yuna, the other is a porcelain chinese doll, made by people who can only draw the same anime face again and again. I love real Yuna so much bros, she's such a dork.
>>743707764lmao that arm why do they keep porting this shit and why do people keep buying it
>>743705890jej
>>743712584The point is it has nothing todo with source code and you're bringing in a completely different scenario that doesn't apply here. You lack reading comprehension which is why you think that anon was arguing that SE has the FFX source code when the actual argument is it doesn't matter and they probably didn't, they fucked up the remaster in ways that having the source code wouldn't have helped.
Is there really no way to fix at least some parts of this remaster like the models, textures and skybox by porting it from the ps2 version?Lighting would be way to difficulty to do though...
They ruined Squall too in the remaster... Gave him Yuna X-2 hair for some reason.
>>743711540Some people dislike that in the original you can and for minmaxing purposes probably should make all your characters practically identical and eventually wildly overpowered but that's a debate that's been going forever in Final Fantasy. A lot of the reason IZJS is the way it is though is that in its rushed development FFXII ended up with some uneven difficulty and badly placed save points that could wall casual story progression earlier in the game before the party starts outgrowing enemies and IZJS' "solved" that issue by just accelerating character growth so late story and early to middish side content is often trivialized.
>>743703326These pointless remasters seem to fuck the old artstyle as a rule.
>>743712407The way people half ass modded in the original faces finally without being able to import models was finding them in the game files.
>>743713945Is bottom the remaster? Because it looks better to me.
>>743714910retard
Yeah it sucks. There are mods that fix it though.
>>743715119I mean it's CINEMATIC COLOR GRADING so I at least believe people who say they like TZA even if they shouldn't because they clearly aren't alone.
>>743714631Someone should just take the extra step to mod a proper remaster of the messed up models and textures themselves. It happened to some games
>>743715119you are.
>>743714631why even paly it just emulate
>>743715198this broski gets it.
im just gonna emulate the international versions of FFX and FFX-2 cause this shit looks beyond bad, and for more than just the faces
>>743714910>dude I just love blur and crushed blacks
>>743713945>>743714910Bottom looks like how FFX looked on my crt. Top looks like a modern day remaster that took away all the lighting and effects.
luckily the PC port fixed this, you can disable all the ugly shit and there are even mods for the PS2 textures
>>743714631There's literally texture mods alreadyhttps://www.nexusmods.com/finalfantasyxx2hdremaster/mods/227
>>743715474lmao
>>743708356it's still there just smaller so it doesn't look like a wart it's just that whoever recorded lulu remaster version did it at 160p so you barely can see it
>>743715673I said it looked like FFX, not XII, comprehensionlet
>>743715565fixing the character models isn't enough, they completely butchered a lot of environment textures and also even forgot textures in a handful of places. additionally, the model skeletons and animations are still shit even with modded textures. it's pointless to play it let alone pay to fucking play it when you could just slap some hd textures on the emulated original.
>>743708025>every day i come home and my faggot ass yuna gives me this retarded look
>>743714539They lost the original models and upscaled the less expressive beta ones because they didn't care, what's so hard to understand?
>>743705178Now she looks like a sexdoll
>>743713406Whaaat, it's a perfectly normal screensh-OH MY GOODNESSSQUEEENIX!
>>743703326This is the 50 millionth time this thread has been madeWheres the janny screeching about this being a general
>>743717331schizo
>>743714749I know nothing about this franchise and this image alone makes me want to commit violent crimes
>>743717536Yeah, the guy who makes threads specifically to dump this gif pack is.
>>743703326I am become potato
>>743718352Truthfully it's not just to start threads. They'll bring it up in any FFX thread with the same pictures over and over
>>743717331imagine defending this
>>743703326They ruined all of them, atrocious remaster.hoping this game gets a recomp in the future
>>743713406Transparency is a lost art.
>>743707764Holy shit, I can hear the music.
>>743710842fucking blind retard get your eyes and brain checked
>>743713236Huuuuuuuurrrrk
>>743707764
>>743707603Eyes too small
>>743713406It's like you'd need a skyrim overhaul level of mods to fix this fucking game.
>>743705956no sadly. a few try but the problems are with the model not just the textures
>>743703326>emulate the PS2 version.
>>743708821>how to remake a game:>take the existing game>move the clarity slider all the way to the right>DONE!
>>743707764She looks fatter in the demake. Not much but the hourglass is different...
>>743706991just goes to show that Uematsu's direction was needed. they actually wanted to use more natural instruments but Uematsu insisted on using MIDI instruments to keep the FF feel
>>743711134the models and lighting are so bad that everybody forgets about the worse UI as well
>>743723407Most people don't even notice things are worse unless you force feed them too. The best proof of that is that people rarely ever talk about when audio is worse in remakes and remasters, especially the non-music. Most people really are just cattle.
SE is dogshit at lighting. Rebirth looks horrid without shader mod.
Unfortunate, but I have a PS2 + a scaler, so I'm fine. (CRTs are annoying and impractical to get and handle.)
>>743705763funny, i was just playing. in that exactly part of the gamew. it doesnt look like that. he must have textures at minimun or something. the game has better textures than the ps2 version.
>>743707342monkey!
>>743723715
>>743723642>(CRTs are annoying and impractical to get and handle.)I have one. sucks to suck
>>743703737lol, i remember playing one of the god of war ps2 remasters on ps3, and they didn't bother to update any of the pre rendered cutscenes and it was so jarring everytime one played
Reminder.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjjlteKX_Uc
>>743718980We have lost that technology and it's a painful process to build it back again.
reminds me of how kingdom hearts looks after they ported it to ps3
>>743723407Haven't seen a comparison of the interface
Something I want you guys to keep in mind is that there is no definitive Japanese version.>original PS2Japanese textJapanese audiono extra content>International PS2Japanese textEngish audio <--- don't want thishas extra content>International PS2 undubJapanese text <--- based on a translation of the English audio, different than the original Japanese voicesJapanese audio <--- original Japanese, different from the text has extra content>HD versionJapanese textJapanese audiohas extra contentbut is the HD versionInternational PS2 undub is ideal in theory, but it has two different Japanese stories running at the same time.I guess the extra content in International is ultimately superfluous.
>>743703326Tidus found Wakka's hidden cocaine stash in the HD remaster.
>>743711134>>743711289The real problem is highlighted but not mentioned directly here: Terrible use or complete ignorance of rigging. Everyone as a result barely even moves their face, it's not like ffx was particularly good at this to begin with but now it's like everyone just got botox.
>>743705956No, there is not.The biggest problem with the demaster is that they removed all the complex facial animations from cutscenes. There is no way to restore them because the animations are simply not in game.This totally ruins the emotional impact of almost all the cutscenes.Just play the PS2 version in an emulator with increased render resolution. That is the best way to play the game.
>>743727656>increased render resolution. That is the best way to play the game.Watch this trvke >>743724412
>>743727709nta but that video is guaranteed to be retarded
>>743726554Oh right that's why Japanesus stream this piece of shit even when they regularly play actual PS2 games and the original versions of the PS1 FFs.
>>743727795Nah, it's pretty good.
>>743727858I opened it and he's praising HD remasters calling them great. He is objectively retarded.
>>743708294>>743708236>>743705915>thousand yard stare for everyonejust strip them of all their personality, square. how much can you butcher these
>>743727889Le shit?The video starts by dude telling you ICO looks better cause it's 240p, not 480i like most PS2 games, and that the 1080p PS3 remaster looks okay, but something is lost with it.Not exactly a high praise for the remaster. IMO the ICO remaster at least isn't a complete abomination like the FFX one is.
>>743723783>>743723715>>743703737Why did the Bogdanoff Wakka in the remaster?
>>743703326It's a sequel, not a remaster. Seymour's time jannies are trying to fuck with the timeline.
>>743728045>but something is lost with it.Yeah the post processing, which he doesn't mention because he's blind. He's stupid.
>>743704880Japanese companies always liked printing out their source and storing it in file cabinets that got destroyed.>>743727979>FFX characters>personalityHave you played it? The dub voices sound like they might not be able to read.
>>743728172yeah
>>743711289lmao
>>743710781Ok, but why? Was it because it wasn't outsouced? And if it was, why it's just well done?
>>743712939> I don't think I've ever seen a remaster that didn't fuck up lightingThis. So much this.
outsourced to pajeets
>>743707764Can't unsee the remaster's ugly shoulder deformation. It's obvious they outsourced to the cheapest offer.
>>743709787nta u lost seething
>>743706121Because everything about modern Final Fantasy began with XII.
>>743715565Wow, you manage to fix a whole ONE character..
>>743734871It's more than one, dingus
>>743703326The main studio they outsourced it to came from Vietnam and China.they butchered it but its not as bad as the FF8 remaster made by Dotemu and Access Games who completely destroyed the game and blurred the backgrounds and never fixed it.
>>743735618https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtuosThis studio also ruined the Batman games as well.
>>743709969NTA but the IZJS is not the same as TZA, in IZJS you can only have one job per character and since there's 12 jobs and only 6 characters, you guessed, you've just cucked youself out of half of this game equipment.TZA fix that by having you finally have 2 jobs per character and that's what faggots complain about, you being able to use the itens you get though the game.
>>743703326there shouldn't have been a FF game after ff6
>>743703326>Ugly surfer white boy with a heroin problem>Ugly surfer white boy with a heroin problem HD I never cared for Tidus design, though in cinematic cutscenes he looks great, but that's to be expected. In-game he always looked stupid.
>>743735618>>743735657There are hundreds of studios like this btw that are outsourced to and used to co-develop on every big game :)
>>743705915>Remove shadows and slap HD on it I hate how so many HD remasters do this. It never makes the game look better.
>>743735657>Fable anniversary>Ezo collection>Return to arkhamJesus christ...How did they got all of this jobs, is the internet really just screaming in the desert?
Is it a new release or are have you been seething at this for years?

Not going back to PS2 Lulu.Her upgrades are too good to give up.>>743735930just a sperg running their monthly bot thread
>>743734803Genuine retard take. Modern FF has much more DNA from FFX’s shitty ideas than FFXII
>>743737067ah, yes, so much energy of the pure turn based game is radiating from the dmc wannabe FF
>>743708348og yuna is honestly one of the *prettiest* and I do just mean prettiest, women in videogame history, remaster yuna you could possibly argue looks closer to the concept/character art, but it's just not god looking, the top of her head is too small, her lips look painted on and tiny, and her hair looks like Lego anakin
>>743719083the little deceleration he does in the first place one before going back to his idol sway is fucking spot on kek
>>743715565Is there a mod for the broken textures and skybox?
>>743705915EVERYFUCKINGTIME
>>743707764ARMPIT DETECTED, LOCKING ON
All of this shit because Square never kept the source files.
>>743724185I have more CRTs that you've ever owned and I still use a scaler because they are impractical and outdated.
>>743741147imagine going this far out of your way to muddy the waters, nobody uses CRT''s for their practicality you miserable little cunt
>>743703326I wish that Tidus' Laugh became his own unique skill that confuses all the enemies.
I wonder how many people never knew that FF4 (1991) released the same day as FF10 (2001), only 10 years apart. Squaresoft was pumping out games like crazy from the 90s into the early 2000s
>>743703326Why is it so hard for these companies to do proper remasters? RDR is actually unironically one of the best remasters ever because Rockstar decided to do the bare minimum which therefore preserved the game as much as you could possibly hope for. These remasters should primarily aim to bring the game to a modern television upping the resolution and framerate primarily. Only touching up on visuals if there are any particular issues with the graphics that were almost certainly a mistake and not done on purpose. Now for remakes that is different. If they want to take more creative liberties fine. But a remaster should quite literally mean just that. Remastering the original source material to make it playable on modern hardware and with visuals left as intact as possible. This industry sucks so much ass its very irritating.
>>743705890FF12 is the perfect FF game
>>743703326I would totally play a FFX Demakehttps://youtu.be/Ku-WeIFuLh4https://youtu.be/NHUjH_ds8SIhttps://youtu.be/xaFYPZPMZHM
>>743735803They're cheap is all
>>743714749Now post the in-game models/screenshots
>>743742174Okay
>>743742649taken on it's own value the Xenoblade remaster looks "good", but the comparison just makes me sad
>>743714749>>743717934>>743742649The newer ones look better.
>>743742681A "remaster" should never be taken on its own.>>743742708+10 rupees deposited in your account
>>743712467>2002But that’s when the first Kingdom Hearts came out and that was pretty good for the first game.
>>743742708This
>>743741451All companies were since people were driven by passion to want to create something great and claim the "innovator"/"first" status. So 2 years development was all that's needed.Now when there's no glory and the main point of a game is profit the machine turns slowly.
Squaresoft dying has been of great consequence to having good JRPGs to play for the past 25 years.
>>743705178>Wears the emblem of her lost love's father on her cleavageWhat's the meaning of this
>>743709926NTA but how the fuck do I skipdraw with modern PCSX2?
>>743707342what mods to use to un-fug the monkey remake?
>>743749425right click the game on the main PCSX2 screen, go to properties, graphics, rendering, enabled manual hardware fixes on the bottom right, you'll find it after that
>>743749730Based much appreciated man
>>743749821np, I understand why they hide it away on a per-game basis now but it's still counter intuitive
>>743703326He prob looked too close to young leo dicaprio in the original so they have had to change his likeness ever since
>>743711134>>743711289
>>743711289Holy shit the hair is really bad in the remaster, among other shit
>>743746694x-2 was a mistake
>>743742887
>>743741451The average nuFF dev cycle is a wasteful tortured clownshow that would bankrupt any other corporation, Squenix somehow manages to survive all its retard mistakes thoughI strongly believe they made a deal with satan when The Spirits Within flopped
>>743703326What is with most of these remasters having very mop-like hair strands?
>>743752182transparency is just one of those things demaster farms perpetually fuck up along with lightinglike its actually amazing nobody along the entire pipeline of creation to release looks at this shit (on the main chara no less) and goes HEY THIS LOOKS LIKE SHIT, FIX IT
>>743703326They chip off the jaws of every male character in every single remaster/remake iteration. Nu-Squall looks like complete garbage
>>743705915>single light source behind tidus and yuna>original's faces are correctly lit indirectly from bounced lighting from the sun >faces in the remaster are directly lit How did they fuck this up? Hero lighting never ever looks good.
>>743752543the lighting intern didn't even look at the original and just copypasted the same lights into every scene, took 2 hours
>>743712419look into the deep dark of the stories.7-10 EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.some evil hand wringing entity was corrupting the leaders of the nations causing strife.then irl some shady and wringing fucks took over the companies and strangled them into gay communism lovers.
>>743753306bruh thats like the plot of every FF
>>743705178>from tranny to kpop sex
>>743752182the ps2 had a something something that did transparency for free/wellobviously it's not impossible to make transparencies on other platforms, devs are just lazy and/or any actual effort to make the game look right will cost time and money and a remaster exists to get free money from something you already sold so why bother
>>743756619it had a huge fillrate, it could spit out transparancies like nothing, but it has nothing to do with them being missing in remasters, that's solely on the devs for either not noticing it or not fixing it, hair transparancies are easy to do
How many years are you going to spend crying over the fact that FFX didn't get the care Kingdom Hearts did when recreating the lost source
>>743713312so >>743713051 ? cmon dont be such a faggot
>>743710872You can literally not use a second class and get IZJS's intended difficulty curve. Subjobs in general exist to appease the people who bitched about not getting to use everything at once even though its like wholly unnecessary and if anything ruin the careful balance of some jobs having peaks/troughs, such as intentionally using the otherwise underpowered Time Mage because of the utility of having permanent access to Float, Hastega without motes and general cheese utility for certain annoying encounters thanks to Disable etc.Subjobs just let you staple it onto someone already broken like BLM and rape the game all game long.
I unironically own like 6 or 7 PS2 consoles, I forget. I think I'm good for the foreseeable future.
>>743751969x-2 is and always was a non-canon asset-flip pandering cashgrab designed to recup money after spirits within fucked the company
>>743706121best most ambitious game
>743753484and within years of breaking into the mainstream, they got co-opted by faggotry.
>>743760223I yearn for the alternate reality where Squaresoft died naturally when it should have and we all daydreamed about the great games they would have madeSomeone needs to perform a sending for Squenix, it's a fiend
>>743703326The game is hard coded to the PS2 hardware.
