New gameplay - Balamb Garden - Awful backgrounds

[Blackened Halo]

I must admitt, the characters look absolutely stunning. For example, Squall's jacket and overall dress look amazing, but it would have been muuuuch much better if they had left his original face and hair. Stupid idiots!

But those backgrounds,...my god...this is just a nightmare. As if Square thinks we all are short-sighted or what. Just check this PS4 version.

Regarding the video, just mute your sound, I just cannot stand those two playing FF8 for the first time in their lives. They do not care how much Square butchered this remaster. Pitiful.

F.E. 05:43. Squall is standing in front of the Quad sign. Previously it was an object, a sign, now it is an indescribable blot.

Just because you had 1080 doesn't mean the entire internet had it. Stats speak for themselves.

Ok, let show me some players' stats, because this actually matters

I wonder if some of the ffviii mods from the 2013 version will work on the remastered I know it’s to early to tell more specifically the background mods

I would guess not. The quality of the character models suggests that they made substantial changes to the game structure, otherwise modders (who actually cared about the game and the quality) shouldn't have had any issue with injecting better character models in the 2013 version. But time will tell.

Yea it’s what I was thinking to there going to have to start over and mod it from scratch again

This video only exaggerated my opinion about backgrounds and the remaster as a whole, I thought I only found some extreme examples of it but it is literally unplayable. I would rather play original even not modded (except soundtrack) than this.

We get it. You have sensitive eyes. Move on. It's like listening to a broken record hearing you say the same thing over and over.

Why do you care? It is democracy, so there is an exit :)

I care because it is annoying to re-read the same thing over an over. I made my thoughts on this pretty clear in my post that you just quoted.

Please explain to me what democracy has to do with anything.

Freedom of speech. If he wants to say how bad this remaster is, then you cannot stop him.

You do not have to open every single thread, especially if it is called "New gameplay - Balamb Garden - Awful backgrounds"

I can open whatever threads that I want. I never said I was forced to open it. All I said is that in multiple threads he has posted the same thing over and over, and that it has become an annoyance. You still haven't explained what democracy has to do with anything. Freedom of speech and democracy are not the same thing. Having one doesn't inherently mean you have the other, and not having one doesn't inherently mean you do not have the other.

Freedom of speech sometimes is a ridiculous excuse to say a lot of BS.

Stil you just can pass by and dont care about it.
Democracy? I said it :) But a guy at your age hardly knows what democracy means. If you ever lived in socialism or communism, you'd immediately know what democracy is.
