For sure! FF2PR's soundtrack knocked me on my ass. I just think the music and visuals are running in opposite creative directions. HD-2D is overplayed but the DQ HD trilogy got a foundational upgrade

Also I just think the evolution FF is a rad tech/creative study

I getchoo. I think the models play better on the DS screen where the pixels are 🤚this big✋.

I love the remixes on PR but they're so jarring when paired with the Not-Retro sprites. Like, which level of fidelity are we going for?

i REALLY need all The Olds to get out of everyone's way. I'm so sick of this shit.

"I need rimlighting"

I dunno why Alex is allowed to have two theme songs and that they're even actually good lmao like damn Capcom's finally showing up and it's for ALEX okay then

Oooh shit I have a bunch of Tank Girl for you then

Not a dig on the talent but definitely a dig a management, which is just the story of the industry these days.

The fact that they announced some pretty drastic changes to the game so soo. after players started taking it for a spin is not inspiring confidence in their vision :T

Shame, cause I do want new devs with new ideas in the FGC space

I knew the game was in trouble when they announced the roster size. Not because roster size is everything (though...in a team fighter you should have more than 10/12) but to be in development THAT long and still have such a small scope tells me they must've REALLY struggled to gain traction.

Preeeeeetty much. They've sunk a TON of cash and years into this so I think they need that ROI yesterday.

I believe there are plenty of forum platforms these days that are free/open source, you'd just have to pay for hosting. I know Flarum is popular.
