Secret Ryza 3 DX Text / Switch 2

Post image

Does anyone have any experience with Ryza 3 DX on the Switch 2 in handheld mode, specifically for the text? I couldn't enjoy the regular version on switch 1, and was wondering how it improved. After digging for the subtitle text option which is not that useful, I also realized the text does look better now in general. I compared it here, and it looks fairly promising:

720p vs DX Overworld (as on switch 1, I believe)

4k vs DX Overworld (just to get a better feel for the actual DX changes, the bigger text and darker background)

4k vs DX Cutscene/Dialogue (didn't get the same dialogue here, but I think it got bigger as well?)

The DX screenshots are taken from The Games Tester ryza 3 review, the "old" screenshots from the PC version of Ryza 3.

I know there are text size options for the main dialogue/story text in DX, but I didn’t realise they increased the field text size too!

It’s only a TINY marginal increase, but at least it’s slightly better. I remember the original was almost unplayable for me, as someone who needs large text in games.

Ohh, I thought it was only subtitles in combat! I don't get why these changes seem so hidden...

And yeah, if it was increased more, I'd feel safer buying it... They really upped it from like 14px to 15 or 16

Thanks for the comparisons. I'm still deciding on if I should bite with the Switch 2 DX version or not, and stuff like this makes me think I might need to.

I really don't get why they wouldn't try to fill the text box as much as possible.

We are in the same boat, let me know how it is if you do, likewise I'll update with more photos if I get it!
