Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster is the value pick for players who want classic Square Enix turn-based RPGs. One $29.99 purchase gets both games. In Final Fantasy X you follow Tidus, a star blitzball player, and the summoner Yuna as she tries to save the world of Spira from Sin; Final Fantasy X-2 returns two years later with Yuna as a Sphere Hunter alongside Rikku and Paine. The Steam page says characters, monsters and environments were updated to HD, the music was remastered and rearranged, and International Edition content is included. The PC version adds auto-save and five game boosters, among them high speed and no encounter modes, which make long stretches of exploring and leveling much quicker. Steam lists it as playable without timed input. The limits are its age, partial controller support according to Steam, and visuals that cannot match the newer games here.
