Yeah, why would anyone want to look at shitty prerendered garbage. When they can just look at the original low quality compressed version?

9 has a huge number of comfy places I bet a bunch of people looked over

The huge amount of comfy backgrounds in ff9 is critically underrated

FFIX original backgrounds were discovered a while back:

>"The Place I'll Return to Someday"
>Vivi's theme
>"Vamo alla flamenco"
>Dat dere battle theme
>Run!
>Loss of me
>You're not alone
>Terra
>Jesters of the Moon

Honestly, can you name a single game with a better musical score?

They are from the PS1.
Those BGs were downsampled to 320×240 (ps1 resolution) and now for the 'HD' version they're being upscaled.
They're upscaling a downscale.
Full retarded.

Pic is another of the OG HD assets you won't be seeing.

get a load of this retard

>no way to replace the backgrounds in FFIX
>lots of high-res 3d renders have been released
>can easily repaint the rest

The environment art is so damn pretty but it's all hidden behind low resolutions...

That's pretty cool, also reminds me of pretty much every RTS ever took the jump to prerender when they got the chance.
