DIRECTX 8 IS MORE THAN CAPABLE WITH COVERING A 2 FUCKING DIMENSIONAL GAME
Can you read that sentence thoroughly please?
Flexibility? Do you even know what's the difference between DX8 and DX9.
DX9 has high-level shading abilities (not needed for 2D games built from mirage), some other shading shit,
and improved animation capabilities.
The point is that a 2D game does not need all that much and people play 2D games because either they like it
or their cards don't support DX9.
