It was really nice to have a re-release of this game I could play on my Vita, handheld gaming was a bit of a novelty for me back then. It was also a great excuse to replay the games and hunt the achievements (although still haven't finished getting them for X-2...)
The changes to the styling of the in-game models that are commonly criticized, I tend to agree with. They did not ruin the experience for me, but it is sad to think about what was lost.
I feel as though there was opportunity to implement quality of life features to this version that would have improved upon the original, such as being able to skip cutscenes in FFX for example, or highlight multiple nodes on the sphere grid. (Making the chocobo race controls less aggravating might have been asking for too much...)
This was also the first official release of the international version of X-2, which included a number of changes. While I enjoyed the new dresspheres, the creature creator felt unnecessary I tend to avoid it entirely when playing.
