If you're emulating 8/16-bit pixel based games on a large screen 32-60" you always need some scanlines effect or it'll look like shit... how far you go with that is a personal choice so the argument about the artists original vision seems like a waste of time!

I've found certain 32-bit polygon based games look much better unfiltered (eg. Bloody Roar 2 on PS1) while others look a complete jaggedy mess without CRT shaders (eg. Nightmare Creatures on PS1) so I'm still undecided on those.

Personally I'm not a fan of any of the smoothing effect filters but I can see why zoomers might use them to make some old RPGs look more asthetic to thier tastes, reckon it makes them look more like a mobile/tablet game though.
