The ''Final Fantasy X/X-2 HD Remaster'' was met positively in Japan. Yoshinori Kitase has reflected on the HD remake process by saying he is happy as the project was a big challenge. He said the remaster had to be more than a simple HD remake, because memories of the players of the original version has had ten years to be gilded, remembering it as better than it really was. The team set out to make adjustments to match up with that "sweeter version" in players' memories, in fear the original games wouldn't give out the same impression any more.<ref name="joy">{{Refwebsitedead| page url = http://www.joystiq.com/2014/02/17/square-enix-producer-kitase-on-lightning-returns-reviews-hd-rem/| page name = Square Enix producer Kitase on Lightning Returns reviews, HD remasters, and that FF7 tech demo| site name = Joystiq| access time = 20140225161720}}</ref>
