Even the PS1 environments in the original had more detail albeit at a lower resolution than what we have here. Character models and enemy models look great in the remaster but environments are blurry. This is the same story with a fresh coat of paint in many areas and the opposite in some areas. In terms of content, Final Fantasy VIII Remastered offers nothing over the original. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered finally released recently and while it does some things very well, it also is a step back even compared to the PS1 original in some ways. At E3, Square Enix surprised everyone by announcing a remaster of Final Fantasy VIII for all modern systems. One game that was always left behind was Final Fantasy VIII, was only available on PS1 (and digitally on PSN for PS3, PSP, and PS Vita) and PC through a port that was not even close to being ideal. Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster and Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age are by far their best releases yet in terms of enhanced remasters while others like Final Fantasy VI and the recent Dragon Quest Switch ports have not had the best end result. With Square Enix bringing legacy games to modern systems, the end result has always been inconsistent. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered currently has 81 on Metacritic, and is also available on PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Switch Re:port covers the Nintendo Switch port/version of a game newly released on the platform.
