People are saying it looks exactly like the mobile version.. i didnt play it but if it is.. well it doesn't get more low effort then this right ?

Wish they would include the original translation as well, but I guess that's too much work to ask of small indie dev Square Enix

They paid to completely voice act the entire game, made entirely new cutscenes, plus they brought back Yasumi Matsuno to write more story and polish the script
The reality is if they redrew the sprites and they looked totally different people would complain so why bother?
There's quite a bit of effort here, just not in the visuals which were already improved for the iOS release

Well you can look at Sony how they decided to release Jeanne d'Arc.
Also this. Even if they do 2D-HD people still complain that they are sick 2D-HD.....So SE did best thing give you option play classical version.
No matter what SE does there is no way you make people happy, this gonna be same case when decide to remake FF9.
People are just too attached to their nostalgic.

Ill buy the collectors premium mark ass mark edition…but I WILL NOT play it
I was hoping for some redone skill effects at the very least and what is "chronicles" about this? Advanced isn't included in this bundle, they are using the lame version of the script (just my opinion…I know people loved the "new" one and this one will be even new NEWER, nah fam), SquareFlacid is more like it. Very disappointed in this.
Square, I don't to know how to help you at this point, but damn…

I don't know what people expected out of this one. It's pretty much perfect as the original.

Disappointed by the low effort visuals...they could have updated the sprites of the characters at least...and you damn well know they're going to censor this game to be more politically correct. I think it's already been confirmed from some of the dialogue I've seen.
Also....there's now an Easy difficulty mode...
I know I'm going on a tangent here...but this has modern Square Enix bullshit written all over it. FFT is still one of my favorite games ever created.

This is a game that defined strategy role playing. Nothing like it. I was sad when it ended.

How about a graphics overhaul similar to DQ3 HD, this is FFT. I think it could justify it.
Looks better to me than what we got. You can always tweak the lighting / bloom off if that is your pet peeve, but I really don't understand how that could be someone's complaint and not that huge smear/blur filter over the entire screen.
If you compare them closely, it's worse than the mobile version. Mobile version has more detailed pixel art/less blurring.

What the hell is everyone smoking in this thread? No seriously you're all batshit crazy for calling this low effort. What the actual fuck.
- Updated graphics
- Updated UI
- Voice Acting
- Story Adjustments and additions
- More to be revealed
And if you don't want any of that and just want the PS1 version, there's a mode that combines the PS1 version's graphics and gameplay with the superior War of the Lions translation. It's the best of both worlds.
And you guys are complaining because it's not a remake? It was never rumored to be a remake. Shame on all of you. For the first time I can remember, Square Enix hyped me up and GAF let me down.

I'm excited for it overall, but the updated graphics are BAD. They're worse than the mobile port, and worse than the original. Everything else in your list does sound good to me though. Not sold on the removal of "Blame Yourself or God" even if the original had "worse" translation, it had a more fantasy feel to the roughness of it IMO. And skeptical on updated story adjustments/more, but hopeful.

So, this is the "definitive" version of FFT?

Classic version looks better, IMO.

I'm not into negative discourse like that but I honestly have to agree. Imagine if they did this to Chrono Trigger.
Why don't they do 2DHD, true remakes, of their MOST beloved titles? Squeenix is silly these days.

They best they did was DQ3 and Star Ocean 2. I would never expect them to knock it out of the park with SO. Square is weird.

They just do what most modern devs do, have everything look blurry.

If you don't wanna pay 50 just use an emulator like Retroarch and you can play either of the PS1/GBA/PSP versions.

Division 3 , they pretty much play it safe just like many of their work . 
not much improvement.
I am dissapoint it wasnt done by TO reborn and FF12 ZA team, those guy has ball to change and improve much more than basic touch up but i guess that team likely busy with FF9 remake now

Also, the HD-2D look is different from the Final Fantasy Tactics look, imho. And personally, I found myself wishing multiple times during my play through of DQ3 HD-2D that they would've done more. Still a very nice game, though. But if they ever remake Dragon Quest 4, 5 and 6, I hope they do more than "just" HD-2Difying it. Maybe it's time to evolve the HD-2D style significantly.
