For those on the fence, I wrote a Review... An actual Review...

[Blk_Mage_Ctype]

Since there's so much misinformation going around, I decided to write a review for the game for the purpose of clarification.

It's an actual Review, not just "gud gaem" or a single paragraph without much to say, but hopefully it will be helpful towards those who are on the fence about buying this game.

Normally, I would just submit it and forget it, but obviously at this point it's bound to be buried beneath a lot of other Reviews, so for the sake of visibility I'm posting it here.

Thank you for your review. I am on the fence on this. People are saying the port is an AI scale with hardly any effort put into it. Thus making the game not worth the price. Do you agree or disagree? Pricing point is usually subjective; but I am wondering your opinion on quality of the port? You mentioned the 4k resolution is crisp, but from what I've seen, in game still looks like 16 or 32 bit pixelated. Am I wrong? Maybe I got fooled by misinformation. I take some opinions rather seriously, when deciding on what to buy.

Frankly, I cannot tell the difference between an image that has been upscaled by human beings from an image which has been upscaled by Artificial Intelligence, nor does it make any bit of difference to me so long as it looks good, which I feel that it does.

As for whether it's worth the price, well... I bought a Physical Copy for the Nintendo Switch and a Digital Copy on Steam, 'nuff said. However, whether it's worth it to you or not is entirely up to you and you'll never knkw until you try. I would suggest buying it, playing it for a bit, and if you're still on the fence within 2 hours, then simply take advantage of Steam's Refund Policy.

You're not wrong. The game looks like a 32bit game because it is a 32bit game. No matter what you do, a sprite is going to look pixelated because it's made of pixels, especially if the sprite is lower resolution with fewer pixels used. Some newer games like Octopath Traveler have more detailed sprites because they are made up of more pixels with hi-res displays in mind.

Hope this helps.
