Resolution settings are mostly for show as graphics remain extremely blurry even at full 4K -- the only assets seemingly affected by this are the hardware button icons which is very funny. It is completely incompatible with a DualSense controller (it messes up the entire game) so unless you plan to play with a keyboard+mouse, you best get an Xbox controller. Otherwise, for a steal of 2 bucks on sale, you can't really go wrong if you're Jonesing for some classic early PS3-gen NIS/Idea Factory slop. It's got all the good bits that you expect from an IF game, including hilariously stupid female character designs, completely shameless and disrespectful fanservice, and a plot so barebones it manages to parody itself and not even realise it. It is all irredeemably aiming at an audience that quite literally was never mature enough to hold a job to sustain the company, which shows nowadays. But beneath it all there is a sense of nostalgia, for a time when these small japanese RPG factories still were at least attempting something unique. For all its flaws, and despite how bad of a port it is, there is an undeniable charm to Agarest 2 if you're an oldschool JRPG fanatic who must try all JRPGs at least once. Catch it on sale and it's absolutely worth a bit of a go!
