Lokarin 08/26/19 9:52:37 PM #1:	FF8 remastered features: * The actual original PC version of the game instead of a port of a port of the PS1 version * Somewhat remastered textures but not really * Every character has that trademark "mobile" glow to them: https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steam/apps/1026680/ss_c47df5f692b0783b177fb6fe9c0cf69ac13ca056.jpg * 3x speed boost * In game toggles to start with everything to further trivialize playing And based on the Steam store page screenshots, it is using the compressed Movies from the PS1 version and not the uncompressed version from the PC version... but it could be that that's just the screenshot. https://steamcdn-a.akamaihd.net/steam/apps/1026680/ss_978887f770227fdd7c54bf8216677b51fcb294a8.jpg EDIT: Oh, and they removed ChocoboWorld support, which IS already in the existing FF8 port on steam... so, IDK? --- "Salt cures Everything!"

I've bought FF8 quite a few times now (OG PSX, PC, VITA/PS3, Steam)... love the game, but can't decide if the remastered on PC will run on my GPD Win 2 (so I can cloud save/sync it to my gaming PC when I'm at home). Steam pricing isn't unreasonable surprisingly (SGD $27 or AUD $26.95). --- If you can understand this, I'm 2/cosC for you. <cite>gloBal enemy posted [p:926591361] in FF8 remast...
