How does the current gen remaster stack up to its 2011 PSP build?
Gary Green said: After finally getting the long-overdue platinum trophies for Final Fantasy VII, VIII, and XV, I wondered if I could manage another. Despite a few blunders, it’s a franchise worth showing off in your collection. I had to find another game with a realistically achievable platinum, which sadly rules out quite a few. Fortunately, I didn’t have far to look as I dusted off Final Fantasy Type-0 HD, which was, in fact, my very first PS4 game, and one that’s aging surprisingly well.
Final Fantasy XVI demonstrates how the franchise has matured since the release of its first M-rated installment, Final Fantasy Type-0.
DS: “I hate that Type-0 is forgotten among the Final Fantasy games. While not the strongest entry, its mature story makes it stand out from the others. And even though Final Fantasy now has three rated M games — including Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin and Final Fantasy XVI, — Type-0 will always have the crown of being the first, and arguably the darkest.”
i agree that it is indeed dark, but it has its issues.
and i feel like the ending is what makes it really a dark final fantasy game.
the rest is more or less war where teenagers fight.
This game was the epitome of the FF dark age pretty much, was hella boring and the gameplay was tedious. I'm glad SE got the series back on track
I actually really love this game, the main problem however was that the entire story and personality of the characters, was in the lore that you need to dig very deep to find and external materials outside of the game, honestly it has my favorite lore in the franchise, I wish they had made the game more story focused, god it would have been a masterpiece
PSP is the winner for me.
Trousers on characters look like stairs, shimmering all over the place. Blurry everything/s.
PSP has to win for me. For what it was, its stunning on the PSP. As a remaster, its just not anything close to feeling like extra effort has been made to really warrant its release.
The demo was the big push to guaranteeing it sold well, although it had a pretty high following in its own right, I imagine its surpassed its likely total without the demo.
Great game, a PSP classic.... but one that's still best suited to your PSP. Actually, remote play the PS4 version on your Vita, this is a great way to play the game!
The PSP is the best version cause it doesn't screw with the camera like it does in the HD remasters. I don't know who thought of that amount of motion blur when you turn the camera in the remasters but that is unacceptable. For some it makes the game almost unplayable.
It's actually better if you use remote play with the Vita. You don't notice the bad textures so much all blown up on a big screen, but you get the benefit of the better character models and such.
PSP version for me. The backgrounds and combat all look stunning for PSP or even Vita.
On HD consoles it falls short
