    Remakes are valid if it’s been long enough since the initial release. The only thing that’s cringe is complaining about it online. If it doesn’t interest you buy something new? No one’s forcing you to buy this.

    Not gonna lie, really couldn’t get through 2 minutes of the video.

    Just so much snobbery in the video, sounds like a TotalBiscuit wannabe but with shit takes and trying to cram fancy words in.

    I’m not a fan of this remaster/remake phase in media, but remaking a 23 year old game like this is valid imo.

    I’ve also heard great things about this remake and have played some great remakes as well, so this is just hating for the sake of it imo.

      I couldn’t get past the title.

      Good remakes are good, they must bring not only graphics, but game mechanics and balance, up to date. They must be better than the original in all aspects, or they lose out to nostalgia

      Bad remakes are bad, and most remakes in this era are bad

      It’s not about remakes, it’s about quality

    As long as the .modern AAA game development scene is still incapable of making GOOD new games that at least match their old beloved titles, I’ll take the remakes of the old games instead.

      What makes you think. They can do good remakes, if they can’t make good new games?
