Okami
Yesss. The way the lines all sort of sway always gives it such a unique look. I was worried the remaster would take some of this away, but it looked just as good.
I wish we could have gotten a proper sequel. RIP Clover Studios.
While less popular, Viewtiful Joe also still holds up for similar reasons.
There's like a newer Capcom game in the works that feels very Okami
Wow. This wasn’t on my radar at all! Definitely going to be checking this out.
That looks amazing, and yeah, very Okami like. Hopefully no Issun though!
The PS2 version looks great after upping the internal res (not sure how much other stuff like filtering/other technicals has an effect). I haven't compared it, but like most remasters I'm going to just say the data bloat is probably not worth potential fidelity improvements. That and I'd guess any design issues are still baked in, thus similar experience.
EDIT: In Okami's case I don't know if the data size is due to uncompressed files or just due to higher-res pre-rendered videos, but either seems wasteful to me. What is live-rendered and what is pre-rendered just seems arbitrary to me, I'd get if it weren't viable on older hardware but you'd think a remaster could handle it mostly in-engine.
