Square has always been ♥♥♥♥ at making a bugless pc port and this is one that I just had to get after owning it on ps2, ps3, switch and now steam. I'm talking about FFX, I've never actually beaten FFX-2 after 16 years of playing this game

I love this game and I would probably say that I have spent more than 2.5k hours on it since I was 4 years old. So I wanted to mod it to change the difficulty and have high quality textures but the game just crashes randomly which is why they added autosave for this port. The prerendered FMV's (cutscenes) would be green or almost all the time be just a green screen which can be fixed but there's a portion of us that can't fix it at all. When installing a mod that would supposedly fix the green screen issue it would change the language to jp, I actually don't know if it is jp without the mod. To fix that you'd have to change some things in a .ini file so it's not an issue rly. There's also the fact that the fps is capped at 30, it is on the other ports as well but with a 144hz display it feels like a motion blur has been enabled

I have not been able to fix this issue and I've tried with everything that I've googled. I can handle the crashes thx to the autosaves but I want to enjoy the cutscenes as well. I recommend this to people that have played it before but for first timers you'd want to get it on either the ps3, ps4 or my favorite the switch

Since this is available on other platforms like the switch please get it on the switch, it is fantastic. The soundtrack, the story, the world, the characters and not the voice acting cuz that is actually laughable and that's why I return to it

EDIT: I've reached a point where it is constantly deciding to run below 5 frames
