The portraits adds so much visual fun to the dialogs. Definitely a remake-must have quality-of-life improvement. BoF6 Fredric looks spot-on for Ganer right there, great choice.
How many character portraits would there be in your entire remake?
I appreciate your insight on it as I have been debating with myself to use them or not. I would like to use a portrait for every character. That would require some repeats for basic NPC/townsfolk, but also some sprite editing to match the portraits. I would have to do some work to change hair colors, etc to make NPC/townsfolk look a little different.
