The reaction to the Bluepoint shutdown is weird, you get the impression they were this beloved studio, I saw someone actually say "Every remake bluepoint has touched has been a slam dunk". But I thought people hated the Demon's Souls remake?
Personally I couldn't give a shit since they've never made a single game for PC, but the strong reaction surprised me.

outside of loud and annoying contrarians on /v/, most people who played Demon Souls remake really liked it. It was well made, ran well, and looked pretty. Their other remakes were good as well. With Japan Studio dead and buried, Bluepoint was the obvious choice for a Bloodborne remake for PS5 and HOPEFULLY PC. But with Bluepoint and Japan Studio dead, and Sony sending cease and desist letters, it's guaranteed we will NEVER see a Bloodborne remaster / remake or even a sequel. It's forever stuck running like shit on PS4.

And that makes me sad.

I feel like PC ports are more likely now that Bluepoint shut down since they'll probably be done by a studio other than Bluepoint. Sony has PC ports for a surprising amount of their first party games, just not any by Bluepoint. It's all about making them aware the demand is there.
>>
>>733512536
While their works were artistically always retarded and bad, Sony shutting them down while also remaking the classic god of wars has to be the most retarded thing ever.
>>
>>733513637
"It looks pretty" - You are a mindless and soulless drone who doesn't care for the development, story, lore or details in games. You are satisfied as long as something is moving on the screen you slop eating pig. You don't care if propaganda is shoved in your face either because you don't even see the propaganda. Ooo fire, me Grug, oooo! Thank God Bloodborne is stuck on PS4 even though it can be emulated (more proof you are a normie pig). Fuck you.

Demon's Soulless and the SotC remakes were highly praised outside of /v/ and they were just known as a highly competent studio overall. They released remasters at a quick pace and the complaints against them are all nitpicking for the most part. People are mad because it's just a complete waste of a good thing. They could have done the GoW trilogy remake after Ragnarok and had it done by now

their remakes are for the exact audience that consumed them: soulless automatons that thing graphical fidelity is the only important thing about a remake. they do not care about artistic integrity, vision, or direction.

Why would anyone care about a studio that's not making original games? it's as much a pointless exercise over shedding a tear if Iron Galaxy Studios got shut down.

>>
>>733512536
Aside from modern graphics that are necessarily nicer than old ones, they released worse versions. They were so ridiculously close that someone watching Subway Surfers footage on another screen wouldn't notice a difference. Directly comparing changed designs and mechanics shows that the original is just better. Personally, I remember the best Bluepoint update as MGS Peace Walker. Apparently a different studio did that and handed their work off, though. It's easy to say that the Demon's Souls remake was more faithful than the Resident Evil 3 remake. Still, we should expect more. If it's trying to be the old one with newer graphics, any divergence from that should be criticized.

FPBP and /thread/

the OG game was already clunky as fuck on release and visually disgusting, but came out of the pack simply thanks to its gritty atmosphere and lore (and voice acting), while keeping the gameplay rather simple but engaging
The remake fixes most of these aspects while keeping its strong points, it's really that simple

It's embarrassing for the medium that people basedface over demakes that disrespect and arrogantly do-away-with the vision of the original.

>But I thought people hated the Demon's Souls remake?
That's on /v/ where the people didn't play it and are upset the PC port never happened. It's generally regarded as a good remake elsewhere and people are mostly upset because it means they aren't working on a Bloodborne remake which is the Snoy holy grail.
>>
>>733517178
That I agree with, their SotC remake doesn't look that bad. It still looks worse in a lot of places though. The bare fucking minimum of a remake should be it looks as good as the old game. Especially when it's a 15 year old PS2 game. The textures they used look fantastic upscaled. They didn't have to do all that shit.

They were not "beloved" at all and they should've made their own games if they wanted respect instead of ruining IPs that they had zero involvement with in creating. If From had no interest in making a DeS remake then the idea should've ended there. It was disrespectful of Sony to whore the IP out to some random port dev that's never proven their own ability to make new IP. The game never needed a remake to begin with, a simple direct port was all that was needed.
>>

>>733517596
>If From had no interest in making a DeS remake then the idea should've ended there.
I thought the same thing about the Dark Souls remake that they just outsourced to some Polish studio. Basically, not like From has integrity anyway.
>>
>>733517596
>They were not "beloved" at all
Reddit worships them.
>>
>>733516906
Just like the Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus ports, right?

The way Bluepoint "added" onto the original art assets of Demon's Souls is a greater crime against the original artists than any hallucination an AI model could perform in upscaling its models.
>>
>>733517686
That wasn't a remake anon.
>>
>>733517754

>>733517220
I have a PS5 and I'm against the DeS remake, stop trying to turn everything into platform wars. BB does not need a remake either and I sure as hell wouldn't want Bluepoint touching the IP so I'm glad they're gone now. If From had some strong desire to remake it themselves then fine but the game really doesn't need one.
>>
>>733517891
>BB does not need a remake either
It genuinely does, it's locked on PS4 where it runs like shit a good amount of the time. It's atrocious that Sony hasn't done anything about it. I feel like at this point it's like a point of pride because they shut down Japan Studios or something. They can't acknowledge how badly they fucked up.
>>
>>733517686
By the way why does it look so weird, the Prepare to Die version has a gritty look to it that makes the world more visceral, in the remaster metal armor almost looks plastic, the other Souls games don't have that problem either
>>
>>733517891
>BB does not need a remake either
It's sub 30 FPS still so yeah, it does.
>>
>>733517952
>it genuinely needs to be remade from the ground up like demons souls was because its trapped on ps4
What is wrong with you.
>>
>>733512536
Keep in mind that people glaze bluepoint because many of them had never played the original versions of these remade/remastered games, so their only exposure to stuff like Demons Souls or SotC is through bluepoint bringing it to modern platforms
>>
>>733517997
The remaster is definitely shinier in general, for lack of a better word. I don't know how much of it is related to improved visual fidelity, obviously the lighting is a bit different.
>>
>>733512536
I don't particularly like the art changes in the Demon's Souls Remake but at the end of the day it;
-Retained the same gameplay
-Ran well
-Had good visuals

So they're clearly a competent team technologically.
How many games come out nowadays that run like total shit and are just visual noise because they run internally at sub-720p?
I hope the engine team behind bluepoint lands somewhere good at least.
>>
>>733517952
>>733518017
Yeah, it doesn't need a remake. If they want to port it to PC/PS5 and improve the frame-rate then fine but that's not remaking the game. The assets are still good and the design/content of the game is still good. An enhanced port would be fine but an actual full remake is not needed.
>>
>>733518221
It doesn't really matter whether it gets a remake or a remaster because they won't change the base game anyway.
>>
>>733518221
The game logic and physics are tied to the FPS, uncapping the FPS to 60 breaks the game. That's why even on emulators you need a specific patch to get 60 FPS, because someone had to do the work to fix the game logic but the fan patch isn't flawless, there's a lot of stuff still messed up in it.

So it needs SOME work done on it to even be ported to modern platforms. If it was as easy as typing fps=60 in an .ini file then they'd have done it by now.
>>
>>733513637
>It's forever stuck running like shit on PS4
Already on PC and free from the shackles of 24 FPS PS4 was capable of. I'm glad Bluepoint won't ever touch it and ruin it or any other vidya for that matter. Forever preserved via emulation.
>>
>>733517952
Emulate it then. There's no point in remakes or ports when emulators exist other than being cashgrabs.
>>
>>733518458
There could be a point if the developers actually did shit with it. They could expand the content and rebalance things, especially when we're talking about a game that has a notoriously rushed second half, admitted by the developers in interviews. But yeah, they just make the same fucking game again.
>>
>>733518431
I'm sure it would take some significant tech work but that's still not remaking the actual content of the game.

I know I know but I didn't notice shit surprisingly. The patch breaks during 2 DLC fights where it will crash, and for those I used LS and I didn't notice the switch AT AL to the point I just stopped using the regular patch outside of those fights because it's waaaaaaaay less demanding on the system and thus uses less energy kek.

Aside from those fights though the patch was perfect as far as I could tell.

I think Japan in general hates the remake and doesn't care about Bluepoint. Meanwhile every mainstream gamer is mourning as if they were some major studio.
They made one original game called Blast Factor on PS3, which is like Asteroids, before they started remastering collection ports of God of War HD, Ico/SotC, and MGSHD for the PS3. Just those 3, while all other HD collections were done by different developers.
For PS4 they worked on the Uncharted collection and Gravity Rush, improving on textures and models, while also not wondering off from the game's original visual design. And honestly they can get all the praise for those.
What made the original Shadow of Colossus visually memorable is sorta lost when it aims for realism in their first remake. There are a few creative changes to things like stone structures and some details here and there on the colossi. It doesn't go full retard like they in Demon's Souls.
Bluepoint really hasn't done much than a few remastered ports and two remakes that deserve criticism.
>>
>>733519073
>As if details aren't what differentiates a good game from a great one.
I wish they would've made a bloodborne remake out of spite because I suspect a significant number of the des remake apologists liked the environmental details of bloodborne that would inevitably be stripped out by bluepoint.

>>733518845
It's funny how people are so convinced that Bluepoint was the sole developer of HD Collection, when people mainly praise anything that wasn't made by Bluepoint.

Peace Walker HD was made by Genki and was the most polished port.
Vita ports of 2 and 3 were made by Armature and generally people only complain about outdoor performance in MGS2 levels.
And then there's MGS2 and MGS3 for PS360, with broken effects, some weird retexturing like Plisken's face or lazy texture upscaling work for most of textures, missing modes, weird codec delay

>improving on textures and models
The textures and models in those ports were not improved. GR had the bloom removed and the ethereal aura on NPCs removed which makes the game look significantly less soulful. The audio quality is also worse and more bland sounding.
Uncharted had fucked up hair alphas like most remasters, making it look worse than if you emulated them.

SOTC has literally dozens of glaring issues.
DS has HUNDREDS of glaring issues.

Their PS3/4 era remasters are regarded as some of the better remaster jobs out there, especially for their time. Their SotC/DeS remakes have a spottier reception, but instead of putting them back on remaster duty so PS5 can pretend to have games, ol' Jim Ryan threw them in the GaaS mines until that project got cancelled, and now we're at dissolution. I'm not gonna put the blame on them, they had a reputation and Sony started ignoring it.

That doesn't make the opinion a fact and you're actually wrong too. It's the remakes that got them the most praise because most people are just cattle that trust the media, and the media was paid off to praise them without any examination. The remasters were praised also but not nearly as much as the remakes.

>>733520346
Maybe now, but if you're old enough to remember them working on stuff like the PS3 God of War & Ico/SotC remasters they were a respected enough name that far back.

Perhaps. I don't know how the remakes sold. I assume alright. But even those were getting away from a team with a clear cut talent, and throwing them in the GaaS dungeons for 5 years with nothing to show for it is...well, it's Jim Ryan. Yet another bad idea that he faced no consequences for.

I highly doubt it. They were floating just fine making ports but then Sony bought them and made them make something they weren't capable of making. Then Sony realize how much they had been fucking up, took a look at the trash BP was making, and told them to fuck off.

Few have tripled down on it like 2020s Sony has. Half the reason PS5 has no games is because like 2/3rds of their studio got shunted into that shit, and then Concord happened.

It's more about not being complete fucking dumbases about it. Sony is easily north of 5 billion in losses doing this shit if marathon fails.

Even if you want to be that cynical about it, I don't think anyone expected Bluepoint to go out this way given their reputation for remasters and relatively recent acquisition. My question is more "why did Sony buy a remaster dev and put them on a GaaS?" That's weird, and I don't know why more people aren't saying that's weird because it's fucking weird. It's like if Nintendo put Monolith Soft on mobile game development after buying them, the hell kind of sense would that even make?

Even setting aesthetic criticisms aside, what Sony fans don't realize is that remakes are specifically projects for cheap, inexperienced studios. You do not need expensive name brand studios when literally all of the design work has already been done for you. Moreover, instead of rebuilding the entire game in-house, you can just run the original game inside a UE5 renderer and it sells basically the same as Oblivion Remastered proved.

Sony acquired Bluepoint with the expectation that they would graduate from remakes into a full-fledged studio that makes original games. Whatever happened with the God of War live-service game didn't impress Sony enough to continue the project. You can blame it on the fact that it was live-service but that's cope. Good live-service games continue to sell very well. Moreover, they were given a year to pitch another game and evidently that didn't impress Sony either. Given how mediocre games are selling worse than ever, I can see why they made the call.

You're actually wrong. SOTC's remake is buggy on top of the everything else wrong with it. Demons Souls was at least playable and a game you could reasonably enjoy among the piles of souls clones if you were tasteless. Like if someone came from LoTF to DeSR they might think it was good to fine.

But SOTC is just outright bad. Bad animations and bugs make it a significantly shittier experience even ignoring the artistic downgrades. I can see someone saying it was a bad game having only played the remake.

I bought my PS3 just in time to get their Ico/SotC PS3 remaster with the PS+ trial that came with it. I think it might've been the very first PS+ game I ever cashed in.

Three reasons. One, they're about to release a game. Two, I think they're still upkeeping Destiny 2. Three, Sony spent an irresponsible amount of money acquiring them and don't want to flush that entirely down the toilet.

This is currently Sony's studio lineup:
Naughty Dog (USA)
Santa Monica Studio (USA)
Insomniac Games (USA)
Sucker Punch (USA)
San Diego Studio (USA)
Guerrilla Games (Netherlands)
Housemarque (Finland)
Polyphony Digital (Japan)
Team Asobi (Japan)
Bungie (USA): Even if Marathon flops (which I doubt) they will still get enough time to develop Destiny 3.
Dark Outlaw Games (USA): Cooked if their first new (live-service?) game flops / is getting canceled.
teamLFG (USA): Cooked if their first new live-service game flops / is getting canceled.
Bend Studio (USA): Cooked if their next game flops / is getting canceled again.
Firesprite (UK): Cooked if their next game flops / is getting canceled after 5 years of development.
Media Molecule (UK): Cooked if their next game flops like Dreams. Apparently the next game is more of a traditional game and less "creation tool" like LBP or Dreams. I wish them luck. And I hope it's not a platformer because Media Molecule proved time and time again and that can't get the jumping controls right for a platformer.
Haven (Canada): Cooked. From what we have heard, the project is a mess. Apparently the pre-alpha got some bad feedback. And the game, for whatever reason, isn't even a Heist game. It's a Battle Royale crossed with an extraction shooter. The game director left the project/studion in August 2025 and the founder of the studio left in May 2025. Super-cooked. Sony will kill 6 studios pretty much guaranteed

Gamers have notoriously bad ears. I guess it's why so many of these remasters end up with fucked up audio in one way or another.

I also found it kind of surprising. Blue Point only made remasters that were generally worse than the original games. I think the only good thing they did with the DeS remake was that they changed the inventory so that it was like Dark Souls in that you didn't have an inventory limit, just an equip limit.

It really is true that normalfags just see good graphics and the term "remaster" and think that it's undeniably a better version of the game. They won't consider art style or how a character's face looks. They won't think about the music or the voice acting compared to the original, they just simply don't care. I think people like that are the reason why every game developer is pushing graphics so hard, because the reality is that nothing else matters to a normalfag.

But it doesn't really matter now, the studio was shut down. While the rest of the internet laments, you can feel content in the fact that you recognize them for what they were. Dog shit.

I replayed it yesterday for the first time in 20 years. It took me about 10 hours to collect 70 or so lizards, beat every Colossus and climb to the top of the Temple. I played it a lot. I remember I beat all the Hard mode time trials. I never did actually climb to the top of the Temple before though. It wasn't that hard.

Horizon is visible and bare, giving a sense of desolation. Jagged terrain underneath is just as threatening and imminent as the dragon. The guy is a lot more grounded in the original. It’s easier to relate to the sense of dread he’s likely feeling.. which is the entire point of the scene. Shit urks me, man. Modern artists in vidya don’t even understand their medium anymore

It wasn't perfect on PCSX2 but I didn't fuck with it that much. It was pretty close once I stopped upscaling, there were still a few minor rendering issues mostly to do with pop-in that I don't think were in the PS2 version, but also what wasn't in the PS2 version was a stable framerate, so I'll take it. Upscaled messed up how some things looked, in particular there's some waterfalls just outside the temple that look much better native.

The trophies you can obtain in the remake are something From has never done.
The first two are only obtainable online
One requires to skip part of bridge with arrows at the Prison of Hope. Not sure if From ever intended for the player to do that.
The rest require you defeat a boss a certain way

/v/ doesn't actually play video game so they won't tell you that the HD Remaster of SoTC is perfectly fine. The only "issue" the game has is that the grip strength is tied to framerate, so the remake turns a mechanic that you barely pay attention to in the original game into something that actually makes you think about where you're going to jump and plan accordingly, and thats ONLY if you're playing the game on the time attack mode with harder difficulties. It's a total non issue

The ps3 version messed with the physics so you tumble and fall over much more easily, which can be annoying in the time-trial modes.
Speaking of which, Bluepoint made the frankly baffling decision to cut the par time for the third colossus time trial in half, meaning that you are now forced to use a well-known but incredibly difficult speedrun exploit to catapult yourself from his sword when he pulls it from the ground.

You could roll through the Machine Gun Iron Maiden if you were good. You had to keep track of the timing very carefully the closer you got and that was a lot of fun to get right, especially in PvP.
