Are the recent classic CRPGs released on Switch worth playing?

http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/feature/52064/the-thirsty-mage-c-is-for-computer-and-thats-good-enough-for-me

October marks the release of a bunch of old CRPGs ported onto Switch, and the panel shares their opinion on whether they are worth playing. After that, they discuss some of their favourite CRPGs and debate on whether we'll ever see Final Fantasy XVI.

At the pub this episode is David Lloyd, Jordan Rudek, and Casey Gibson.

Holy s#@*. First he complains about the controls of Baldur's Gate instead of reviewing the quality of the port, then he says he wishes they skipped Final Fantasy 7 remake and went right onto an UNANNOUNCED Final Fantasy 16.

David Lloyd is full of bad takes. I'm revoking your wand, sir. You're no longer a mage.

I mean, we all complained about Baldur’s Gate being a poor experience on Switch, not sure it makes a whole lot of sense to review the quality of a port for a game that aged terribly and should be skipped entirely. Our conclusion was that there are better things to spend your money on.

I stand by my opinion that the Final Fantasy franchise is about looking ahead while building off the past, Square doesn’t need to prioritize remaking old games, the first time they made Final Fantasy VII it came out just fine. Having said that, I’m still buying FF7R and will enjoy it.
