Why are the graphics so ugly and blurry?

[Maroliver]

No matter what setting I use, this game looks terrible. It is maybe the worst looking/most poorly optimized game I've ever purchased on Steam.

As he says.

Yeah the filter is by default activated and gives a wierd emulator-like blur

But the graphisms in the Metal Slug serie are phenomenal for a 2D game

Also the game is optimized pretty well, not arcade perfect but not a lot of slowdowns

The slowdowns are embarassing, even I can fix that problem! SNK is just lazy as hell, and instead of fixing the problems of these ports it prefers selling stupid units on Metal Slug Attack!

(Ok sorry it was not necessary, but this thing pisses me off >:( )

I agree about Metal Slug Attack being some sort of cash grab mobile game (but these have always existed)

But the game is still "finishable" there are no game breaking bugs

To be honest I think that most serious MS player (that aims for the world record) are either playing on the real arcade machine or on the Neogeo

To be honest pure arcade game like Metal Slug aren't selling anymore (most people want another open world/battle royale game over an ~1H 2D run'n gun)

Anyway the ports are apparently based of the mobile versions of MS 1-X-3 (by DotEmu) so this may explain why the slowdowns

Also MSXX has no excuse compared to the older because it's more recent (and was remastered for the PS4)
