Muv-Luv
From PCGamingWiki, the wiki about fixing PC games
Revision as of 17:24, 1 August 2022 by Effcol (talk | contribs) (The OG game did not 'crop'. Cropping refers to removing parts of the image that the OG developer would intend for the audience to see. This game's crop removed vital parts of the composition of images, negatively impacting play, so should be noted.)

Key points
- Contains remastered versions of two previously released Muv-Luv games:
- Muv-Luv Extra
- Muv-Luv Unlimited
- The aspect ratio is cropped from the original 4:3, removing the top and/or bottom of some CGs and artwork. To see these uncropped, you can view them in the gallery after finishing your playthrough, but they are still cropped as you play.[1]
- Some artwork has been extended to fit the new 16:10 aspect ratio.
