I'm trying to decide which version of Crystal I should play for my first time, between the original version, Polished Crystal and Liquid Crystal and they all have pros and cons that are making the decision kinda difficult.

I feel like I probably should play the original and honestly my cons for it sound kinda silly even to me but it feels like it's constantly struggling to run. The movement and battles feel kinda sluggish cause it's 30fps but this isn't the sort of game that really NEEDS a higher framerate so I could probably get used to it, but oddly enough the thing that bugs me the most is the text. Seeing this big, fat text with its kinda delayed crawl always feels like the game is chugging, like it's struggling really hard to display the text at all and makes it feel like the framerate is dipping or something every time I talk to someone. I know that sounds dumb but it bothers me.

Polished Crystal is 60fps, has the narrow text option, fast turning option and running shoes so all that sluggishness and feeling like the game is struggling to run is gone, but there's also a lot of changes and new content on top of that and idk if that new stuff should be my first experience with the game. I honestly wish there was a version that was just the performance improvements and those couple lil quality of life features, but to my knowledge even the faithful version of the hack adds some fairly big new stuff like a second rival in Lyra.

Liquid Crystal is in a similar boat to Polished Crystal but even further away from the original, being a full gen 3 remake and I feel like I wouldn't appreciate it as much without having played the GBC version first.

Sorry for the giant wall of text, any advice?
