Well, to me, they were being cheap about updating only the faces of the main characters. Not enough budget lol.I played the HD remaster, and I enjoyed the soundtrack and all of the new features they put in there from the international version which existed only in Japanese previously. Updating only the main characters faces was something that didn't feel right to me, everything looked kind of weird.. But they're the ones who are going to get the most screen time, so I understand the developer's choice.
HD facial improvement were not that good. But the other gaming environment and upgrades on the other hand were better. And it made a lot of gamers feel comfortable around the remastered version. That being said, the HD upgrades seems to be good enough for many who wanted to play.As the name suggests, HD remaster was an upgraded version in terms of sound and graphics. The facial changes made in some segments were widely appreciated and easily accepted. I always prefer to try an upgraded version of any game and HD Reamaster version completely met my expectations.
I have not gotten around to playing the HD remaster but from the reactions I am seeing here, it seems pretty promising. I would definitely like to see the change in the main characters faces that you are talking of. Honestly, I don't understand how the HD facial improvement could be a problem overcast. Now I am even more curious. I will try to get the game the first chance I get.HD facial improvement were not that good. But the other gaming environment and upgrades on the other hand were better.
