Well in Kingdom Hearts 1.5 HD remix they replaced the original character models so……

You’re wrong

only if vaan step up and come out o balthier shadow!
you know like a true hero!

Yarly… if the update really looks this good throughout the game… looks wild.

I wonder what they will do with the 2D backgrounds? Some areas in FF X have 2D backgrounds (e.g. some areas in Luca, some around the Shoopuf).

If they remake them in 3D that would be nice

also it would be great to have a free control camera from FP to view stuff

I think they may update both of them.

If you look at the new models, they may actually be higher detail than FF X original’s models.

They did some close ups of Yuna, I thought it looked maybe better

the art style is also different (more akin to KH), the shading is and shapes are a bit changed

have to see the final product, looks pretty good though

the characters actually have fingers in battle, that should say a lot! :)

Yes it’s still for PS3.

so this is also still for PS3 right?

International Edition + Dual Audio please(just like KH 1.5 edition)

If this isn’t out in like two months I’d be really confused, well, more confused on SE’s practices. This was announced like a year ago, right? It’s a remaster, not a remake!

that would be a complete remake. This is just a hd remaster

I thought it had, just got worried when they only saw the vita version:-)

Works for me. Curious if they’ll make the cutscenes consistent though. The mixed models was really annoying. Even during some big scenes with all the playable characters, some of them were switched to the lowest quality model in the background. And it was just not pretty.

I’d like it to at least look consistent. Including the one off NPCs.

That was literally the most annoying thing about FFX for me. So here’s hoping.

Sorry dude, forgot they went that way with the in-engine cutscenes; really wasn’t a fan of FF10 at all (the English localisation brutally destroyed that game for me: all memories I have of it are like a horrific fever dream!), so I jumped to conclusions.

But yeah, you/he are totally right then. Seems odd that Square wouldn’t just use those models throughout the title now, unless there’s something preventing them from doing so (ie. the models were made specifically for cutscenes, and would need major amounts of recoding to become ‘tangible’ within the gamespace).

cmon man, you’re better than this. Use some reading comprehension…

Before questioning whether or not someone knows something, how about going back and rereading the comment again? Not once in his comment did he mention the CG models, only “high detail cutscenes models”. Not sure if you have actually played FFX, because if you did, you would’ve remembered that the game actually had two kinds of in-game models:

– One is creepy, low-poly, emotionless and is used for majority of the gameplay.

– The other one is more detailed, more expressive and ultimately seems more alive. This one is often used for the majority of the in-game cutscenes, save for some odd occasions.

The question being posed here is why did Square not polish and use the more detailed in-game models for the entirety of the HD version, but instead chose to polish the less detailed ones instead? No one here lacks common sense enough to think of dropping in models designed for CG cutscenes and expect the current-gen system to render them in real-time.
