its a game by game decision. Ps1->PC ports looks better in low res most of the time

No.

You don't need to play on a small resolution if you've got a PC CRT monitor though?

>>12591650
Still kicking myself for not having the foresight to keep my CRT.

Small res yes, but blown up to the entire screen. The bigger the play window and the less stuff around it the better, light coming from other things is distracting and soulless. I pity zoomers who only play widescreen with their discord window opened to the side, they don't know what soul is.

I do not.

Why do people willingly use Windows 11?

Upressed textured polygons repulse me.

>>12591238
if it's with pre-rendered backdrops like your picrel, then yes. because otherwise the high resolution character models comically stick out on the blurry or pixelized backdrops.
sometimes the low res might not only make stuff more cohesive but also hide some imperfections.

>>12591238
For full 3D games, no.
Even for ps1 era graphics I think razor sharp HD rendering is the better poison than a crusty low res image blown up to fullscreen.

>>12591238
you're forced to play low-res with some GOGs like Vangers and KODP. there was a halfassed resolution hack for KODP, don't know if someone made a better one.

Like this? I tried an upscale mod at first but it just looked wrong to me.

is OP talking about resolution or window size?

>>12591238
No, but I'm also on an LCD, and not a CRT which would scale and anti-alias it better. It'd be fucking great to not have to run 3840x2160 at 140Hz stable for even 'okay' image quality at my monitor size, but here we are.

Depends on how small the hud gets when I use my monitor's native resolution

pffft, if you git gud you don't need to see the HUD.

Traditionally, no. But I've come to accept that in some cases it is the better option.

>>12594329
That is oldunreal, I just scaled the HUD back to 1x for demonstration purposes since it's a common issue for UE games.

>>12594350
i see. it is certainly an issue with many old games, but using a game with a fix for ui scaling is just asking for a response like mine

Only doom. Sometimes I play original 320x200 but 90% of time I play twice that, 640x400
