There’s a mod for the Steam version called Remako that uses AI upscaling on the backgrounds and improves textures and whatnot

Yeah it looks really good. Also there’s a new translation that’s a big improvement.

Virtually all JRPGs are improved by the option to pay them portably, so I say the Switch version.

I feel like we just had this conversation a couple pages ago but, what's the best way to play FF7? Buy on steam w/texture mods or sommat?

Remako is old, grab Satsuki's upscale pack. He started with AI upscales then manually went through and cleaned stuff up to look even nicer. It has not only field backgrounds but cutscenes, spell effects, battle scene textures and more. It's good

Np man. He recently made it a single easy installer too, it was totally convoluted before if you wanted to use it without the Reunion mod.

Also id recommend checking out New Threat. It changes the game up in some nice ways, adds new content, mechanics, bosses, side quests etc., and spruces up the translation without going full keikaku. I used the 1.5 version on my last playthrough and it was a lot of fun.

I beat Yunica's campaign in Ys Origin yesterday and started Hugo and he seems a lot more boring in comparison

yeah he's pretty lame but the 3rd character kicks rear end so it's worth breezing through on easy or something to unlock him.

Don't you unlock the third character after beating it with just one of the two originals? Beating it with all three unlocks extra modes or something. I remember regretting having bothered to do Hugo lol

In some versions you only need to do one character but in the newer ports for Switch and PS4 you need to do both

In the original release you had to do both, then in the Steam port you only had to do one, then dotemu went back to the original unlock method bc they're stupid.

I came around a bit earlier on Hugo playing with him on Nightmare but on any other difficulty he's a snoozefest. But the 3rd char is so worth it lol

I've never played FF7 so I just wanna do vanilla style with upgraded textures before playing Remake. It's dumb but what better time to finally cross that off my gaming bucket list
