I paid good money for this Dynex!
this fucking shitty pc port trend is out of contorol
Seriously. I like that Japanese games are coming to PC at an alarming rate, but it seems like every other one is just busted. Kinda sad.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with that statement. If you think that what he said is a slight towards PC gaming then I don't know what to say to you.

Not this one. GC version is still by far the best way to play 12 years and counting.still better than their console counterparts
Barring koei tecmo ports, various jp games released on steam in past months have all been goodSeriously. I like that Japanese games are coming to PC at an alarming rate, but it seems like every other one is just busted. Kinda sad.
If most multiplats weren't better on PC he would have a more valid point IMO. As it is every platform gets a fair share of crap ports.
From my observation, a shit console port will also have a shit PC port(maybe comparatively less shit if you have the hardware) and by shit I mean the truly shit ones, not just some frame drops and the like. I'm talking AC:U levels of shit. Both consoles and PC gets their fair share of bad ports but I don't see what's wrong with having a console and PC and buying the console version if the PC port is Arkham Knight tier trash or buying the PC version of a game if the console version is trash as well.Of course there is. Because shit ports concerns console as much. And even for big releases.

Here you go, I just took these screenshots a few minutes ago. 3x Internal Resolution (1080p), 8x MSAA, 16x Anisotropic Filtering, Widescreen fix on (Action Replay code). Dolphin on the left.Pulling these images from a Steam thread:
Dolphin on left. Bleh.
Edit: Apparently they didn't apply the widescreen fix for the Dolphin screens.
My other theory is that everyone on the project was drunk. The entire time.
This is why I can't commit to PC only. Shit ports happen to often still.

So far they are few and far between long as we are excluding koei tecmo games
Well that's not fair, the GC version was made competently.Not this one. GC version is still by far the best way to play 12 years and counting.
Isn't this Bamco, though?
And a lot of the smaller games have had shitty ports. Stuff like the Umihara Kawase games, Azure Striker Gunvolt, etc. A lot of ports are fine, yes, but I still don't feel like it's nearly as consistent as it should be.

Yikes, not looking so hot.
I mean cold!
Actually I mean hot.

Mmm. Nothing says quality like major companies using royalty free button prompt graphics.
Shame how much better the Dolphin screens look besides the font.
11. And something to chuckle about. Apparently the one who is in charge of the discussionforums for this port was called "Lazy Mofo" on Steam. After being called out, he changed his Steam name.
You can't make this stuff up. It's really all quite astounding isn't it? It's a real shame that we are still experiencing half-assed PC ports, I really thought we had proceeded past that point years ago.

Man his list of past nicknames ain't all that great either... xDEven more amusing is that he's been VAC-banned. Granted, it was more than 10 years ago now, but when representing a company it's probably not the best idea to use your own account when it's branded with the Steam equivalent of a scarlet letter.

Ok, so. Let's say I wanted to play this legally. The PC port seems shit. What are my other options?
GameCube, PS2 & PS3

Actually, that statement doesn't make much sense. 99% of all games games ported to PC are better than the console versions.There's absolutely nothing wrong with that statement.
If I cared about Symphonia I'd look at this.

Not to be going full internet detective or anything, but I just noticed that he doesn't own the game on this account either. I kind of expected that to be a prerequisite for being a community representative.

Zestiria is so much better on every level than Symphonia.This is really sad. I was looking forward to replaying Symphonia after Zesteria bored me to tears about 20 hours in.

Oh. My bad, hadn't realised it had been released on so many platforms.
Edit: So avoid everything but the GameCube version. Gotcha.
They really must have scraped the bottom of the porting "studio" barrel with this one.Huh. Namco's ports have been pretty good, so this was the last game I expected to turn out badly. I didn't expect them to iron out the flaws of the original HD remaster, but I sure didn't expect them to introduce new issues. Weird.
I've been saying that long before all this happened.I know tension is high here but let's not get crazy now
Well, damn, it's over.If I cared about Symphonia I'd look at this.
