Can remakes ever maintain the feeling of the original? Do sacrifices always have to be made to properly modernize them?

Even though this thread is mostly focused on art, I’d be interested in hearing about gameplay changes as well.

Honestly? They *are* trying, but it’s like forcing a square peg into a round hole. You can tell the artist wants to recapture the old vibe, but everything's too clean, too sterile. That roughness and imperfection is what gave the original so much character. You can't surpass SOUL with polish alone.

It was a gradual process that I honestly think started with Extra. It set a precedent that you can take the basic HGW concept, throw in a Saber-clone and make bank, original concepts and settings be damned. Everything after that was just a slow downhill deterioration that simply followed that premise to its logical conclusion.

When Fate Grand Order became the number one money printing gacha game.
There are some good story chapters in there though, but the way it has influenced Nasu's later works is a huge negative
>>
>>732202795
The top one feels more sovl because it is conceptually better as a piece of art. Arc's body language is more expressive and the overall colour composition implies more mixed feelings.

>>732202795
The top one is better because it gets the mood across better. Technical proficiency is largely irrelevant.

I've heard a couple things. Like how Nasu thinks TsukiRe should be experienced on a big screen. Or that by not releasing it on PC until later, he can minimize piracy, though I think the 2nd one is just a guess.

My game theory is that Nasu is holding off on a PC release until Red Garden is finished so he can release a definitive version of the VN on PC. So that means the PC port is still a good 35 years away.

>>732204819
Nasu's stated reason is that he thinks it should be experienced on the big screen. Apparently he doesn't believe you can plug a computer into a TV. It's also possible that he or the publisher want the PC port to release alongside Red Garden, which is obviously not out yet.

>Can remakes ever maintain the feeling of the original?
in theory yes,
but for that to happen the remake must be spear-headed by someone who thoroughly understands the original and it's appeal, agrees with it / appreciates it, has the skill to realize that vision, and the must not be prevented from doing just that by others.

And that, unfortunately, is apparently such a monumental set of requirements that it almost never happens.

An example of it happening was the lord of the rings movie trilogy.
That was an adaptation, not a remake, but it's subject to the same requirements.

Nothing can ever "maintain the feeling" or anything. A man cannot cross the same river twice. The second snowman you make will not be the same as the first snowman. It does not matter how hard you try.

turkeyhandle is a different case since it's all nasu's fault, but I wonder how we will look back at other demakes in 20 years. for a lot of games right now is probably the last chance for remakes to be made while the original staff is still alive and able to contribute, but a ton of them are forced to censor themselves because of current year politics.

Wasn’t the granny skirt somewhat fashionable back when it released? Which is why it was changed to a miniskirt. But now the long skirt makes her look more ethereal, so the miniskirt just doesn’t look as good.
>>
>>732238075
Takeuchi said in an interview that he gave long skirts to most heroines in Tsukihime because he didn't feel confident enough in his abilities to draw legs well back in 1999.
>>
>>732238268
and it apparently didn't improve over 20 years later. he should have stuck with the long skirts instead of drawing disgusting stick legs.
>>
>>732238482
Yeah, he's definitely no Bernini or Ingres when it comes to his women. Though I suppose some of that is just the anime style being anime, naturalism and super-realism was never the anime style's forte.

The only artists that come to mind that draw their women the right sort of fleshy and thick are the guys over at Shaft with Monogatari.
>>
>>732238917
i'm not even looking for the thickest thighs in the universe or anything. i just expect something that isn't 2 straight lines with no apparent curvature to be found. i sometimes feel crazy because i've never seen anyone else complain about it aside from me. people rightfully point out the skirt, they point out the hair. nothing about the legs though.
