Re: The Outer Worlds Publisher Reveals Performance And Resolution Of The Switch Version

@Razer Sorry for butting in this conversation, but while I don't believe that this game is a complete remake, it's also far from a port. Both character and environmental geometry have been vastly improved (Check out locations like Colony 9, Mechonis Field and Central factory) and texture resolution has improved a great deal. Combined with a lighting system several times better than the original and the fact that they're using 2/Torna's engine, I'm personally thinking that it's between a "remaster and a remake." I'm only slightly disappointed with resolution, but it's nothing game-breaking! I definitely don't know much about the tech involved, but I think(?) with some optimization it could reach 900p. Sorry if I seem a little aggressive, I just wanted to show some improvements that will hopefully change your views on whether it's a port or not. Comparing the original and Definitive Edition, the improvements are pretty substantial.
