There are countless new games that obviously cost more time and money to develop (than this port) yet this is still priced that high.

Final Fantasy IX-2
Two years after the ending of Final Fantasy IX.
The happy ending was not to last. Zidane has not accepted by many of the subjects in Alexandria as rumours circulated that he was the brother of Kuja, whose wrath had brought such death and destruction to their world. Not to mention the fact that he frankly lacked the intelligence to rule a country, being more apt with 'street smarts.' It all caused a massive strain on his relationship with Queen Garnet, who also had become tired of his incredibly high libido. Her ass simply could not take it anymore, which led to arguments.
Freya was also having a hard time. Fratley never did remember her, causing her pain every day. Eventually, she thought it best for both of them if she simply moved on.
Meeting in a pub for drinks and reminiscing, this is the suprisingly bad news an increasingly drunken duo had to share. Zidane looks into the bottom of his last pint, and sighs. He really thought everything would work out for them both, but now...
Suddenly, he feels a hand on his leg, and looks up into the blushing, yet keen face of Freya.

Maybe you should just play shit that's interesting to you instead of caring about 4chan memes. The whole 'furry' shit is one fucking side character that doesn't even play a major role in the story and you'll probably not bother with past getting them because she's a dragoon.

This is some inexcusable shit. Even Tim "hack" Schafer managed to touch up the old lowres 2D graphics and their re-releases aren't any more expensive than this.
It might look like shit, but at least it's still not as bad as the FF4/FF6 re-releases that murdered the original sprites to put in "better" ones
i hope whoever was responsible for that got put into one of those japanese glass shame-boxes designed to haze you until handing in a voluntary resignation

>>334252520
It kind of is that bad. The prerendered backgrounds are for a 254x224 resolution, and the models are upscaled to 1080p with no lighting or any attempt to fit them in with the backgrounds.

>>334247381
Eh, maybe I'l finally beat it. I've started playing FF IX like 5 times on emulation and never finished it
>>334250597
This reminds me some fic where at the end, which was post game, Zidane and Freya do fuck. But it had them doing things together during the events of the game. I also liked the way it said white magic worked. Also, there's a chapter where Zidane gives her a footrub.
>>334247381
Holy shit I made a thread last night asking where the fuck this game was and they actually listened

>>334252859
A dude named Jake Rowell apparently had Square employee as a friend. Just check out the water mark.
I didn't get VII or VIII on steam but I remember hearing they required signing up to some SE service and then logging into it every time you wanted to play in order for the games to run.
This shit true and if so is IX like that?
>>334253110
What do you not understand about these being static images, when the backgrounds in FF are anything but?
>>334251228
Maybe it doesn't count mandatory instances of entering trance?
So what does the unity engine mean for us? Is this potentially moddable? I've seen fan upscales that look better than Square's and if there's a chance it may now be easier to port them into the game I'd love to know.
>>334253190
But that still doesn't make sense because it's impossible to not enter trance at least once. Unless this version lets you control when it triggers?
>>334253168
>Yo bud. I want some high render res of FFIX, you got some?

>SE doesn't have high res

Nobody cares about FF5 and 6, that's why they got so shitty ports compared to 4 which is the best Final Fantasy
>>334253250
>paste jpegs onto background and the scenes never moves
>>334253250
It would require effort to put them in the game. Lots of it, in fact, defeating the purpose of making a lazy port in the first place.
>>334253250
That isn't the scenario at all. Square shopped out background creation to various studios and one artist kept some of his old masters. Square does not have them all anymore. What we see with Rowell's portfolio is a scant few he kept from over a decade ago and not near enough to complete the game.
>filthy burmecian rat game

>>334247435

>>334253691
Overall yeah. The upscaled backgrounds look about on par with upscaling on an emulator. Thing is for a lot of people we just opted to keep it pixelated since it retained a sort of sharpness that worked with the cleaner character models a little better.
>>334253691
probably because it was at native res so 3d and 2d elements like the backgrounds matched
>>334253458
I mean. PCucks have had access to the game for years thanks to emulation. Only a pathetic steamwhore gives a shit about this release.
>>334253693
Probably some truth to this, The Queen can use summons Garnet is nowhere near capable of handling during the first two discs.

>>334247512

>>334253837
I'm a pre-2001 Square whore, thank you. I have owned this game on the PSX since the day my late mother bought it for my birthday, I have played it yearly through emulating, and I happily buy it now just to do my part in showing Square where my money goes and that I am still a customer if they care to sell shit to me.

Top comment.
I have to go to bed soon cause i have to work but it seemed like a pretty decent port. They threw in some mouse support although it seems a littly janky. Models look good. My controller worked right away with out it being gay. Achievements if you like that shit. Price is too high imo though. Its way better then the shitty 1998 Retail PC version of FF7 they threw up on steam.

>Did anyone even ask for this port?
Actually there were people wishing for a long time that IX was updated. It was made at the very end of the PS1's life cycle and really pushed the hardware on that thing. The downside is that the game barely ran as a result.

Once we get one, this game is going to look fantastic.

There should have been more scripted trances like this

No he's pointing out that the game FORCES you into Trance against the Parasite Cage.
If they haven't had that happen and yet have S-rank treasure hunting, they're cheating.

By virtue of not being on a console, yes.

Stop talking out of your ass. The battles having a long starting cinematic was simply a design flaw, not due to pushing the hardware.

>FF girls in general
Honestly, the girls in FF always take a back seat to the guys in terms of charm. It's kind of a shame that the franchise's popularity means that they're basically the face of JRPG girls, when there are easily dozens of franchises with girls more deserving of the attention.Except for X. Rikku is adorable, and Yuna is cute, too.And possibly XII, but that's because the character development of everybody in that game is basically footnotes, and the character interactions are non-existent. This goes for male and female characters alike.
And XIII, but that's because everyone in the cast is equally horrible. So basically, XII and XIII don't really count.

The game also suffered from bad framerate throughout the game, not just in battles.
Shame too, because the animations of character models in IX are absolutely beautiful.

>>334255414
Never noticed this. Then again, I was never bothered by framerates or loading times in Final Fantasies.
>>334252662
I always just assumed the other characters simply had no idea what gender Quina was.

That's a barefaced fucking lie

It's Square-Enix, that's why. This is the company that just farted out the FF XIII Trilogy on PC straight from the PS3 (that sure worked out).
