Oh whoop, totally missed these abundant updates.
And yes, I love the low-res background better, like most us do. Can't say I'm too impressed with the portraits and Rosa's attire though. But hey, I'm getting the game when it's out regardless.
What I'm trying to say is that the portraits don't seem appealing enough.. too much difference in style and look from previous portraits. They should be hi-res yes, but I don't feel the Joey vibe when I look it, same goes to Rosa. They don't look as lively as they were, but hey punch me, Joey isn't supposed to be 'live'ly anyway

Just my 2p.
