I don't understand the concept of a "Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster". How can you remaster pixels?
If they were going for higher resolution assets, then sure. But they're just redrawing sprites at the same resolution using the same colour palettes?
- kllrnohj 5y agoClick the link and find out? There's pretty clear side-by-side comparisons showing the original & the remaster which answers your question.
- reikonomusha 5y agoThe article explains this in a lot of detail. Pixels are not pixels until they’re on a display, and different displays (CRT vs LCD for instance) display pixels differently in very not-subtle ways. So one interpretation of “remaster” is to emulate CRT-pixels as LCD-pixels through filters. Another is to re-design the pixel art to be optimized for LCDs.
- underwater 5y agoThat's what I get for skimming. I missed the connection being made.
