I already own the original, but back when I got it I was unable to play due to the poor control schemes since I am disabled. Now I own an Xbox Adaptive Controller that I used to play through Elden Ring pretty well. I'd love to go back and play some of the earlier games.
I already own the original. Is it in any better state to play? I remember needing to add a fan patch to fix a lot of the issues. Or should I just get the Remaster and call it a day? Is there a recommended play order? I do see people recommending 3 over the first two if you're coming off Elden Ring.
Appreciate your opinions.
You all are awesome, thanks so much for your recommendations. Decided to give Prepare to Die another shot with DSFix, DS Config Utility and Widescreen Fixer. Looks awesome!!
If anyone has issues with the HUD at 5120x1440.
In Widescreen Fixer:
Uncorrected Resolution: 2560x1440
Bezel-Corrected Resolution: 5120x1440
To be fair, I fully love that era of graphics. All the high resolution, hyper-realistic stuff is neat, but it seems like that is a facade added to a wooden shack with a leaking roof half the time. I would much rather something look a bit worse, but have so much more to offer in other areas.
I knew about the demake, but haven't tried it myself. I was hoping that it would have more done by now since I heart about it a while back. I might still give it a go though.
Side note: I am so sad the the remakes of PS1 games don't have the option to play with the original graphics. Halo remaster had the option and it was great. Spyro remaster changed things about the games and then made the game feel almost plasticy.
