I'm waiting for DF or someone to really get into this version and let me know if it actually fixes issues from the PS4/Switch version, cuz that version loses out to just playing the X360 version of the game via emulation. Emulation gives you a better experience with the game. I hope that is not true for this PC version, which is suspect is based on the PS4/Switch version.

Sounds pretty decent, but he didn't address how it compares to running the game via X360 emulation, which he previously said was a superior experience to the PS4/Switch remaster. I guess I'll have to watch that video again and try to make my own comparisons.
