>when you play old game on an IPS screen instead of one that can do true black like oled or crtYet people wonder why games are washed out.
>>736011825it's harder to find games that don't do this. the remaster is so ugly, my first time with ffx was the hd version and I remember thinking it looked kinda bad but oh well maybe it didn't age well. dropped it.then I saw comparison shots, and emulated the PS2 version and was instantly way more immersed, and beat the game. I never even had nostalgia for it or anything reminder the best way to play FFX is still FFX International (PS2), the HD ver has no extras except for worse graphics and removed facial animations
>>736012168>my first time with ffx was the hd versionhate zoomshits like you
>>736011935That is honestly the funniest show i'v ever seen.I watched it with my gf and i cried multiple times from laughing.
>>736012243it was 12 years ago dude, and I didn't know better. ffx hd was the turning point for me becoming wary about remakes and remasters
>>736011821Most of Nightdive remasters are good
>>736011821Destroy All Humans is good.
>>736011821I agree but is the racist remark necessary?
>>736012856Yes
>>736011821Do you think about nigger dick often?
>>736011825Turok
>>736012716LolLmao even

>>736014004SS2 featuring actual a.i slop textures lol
>>736012168"what are shadows" *blows up the exposure and ruins the entire scene* ah yes remasters
>>736014068Haven't played that one, got any examples?
>>736011821Bravely Default's remaster was necessary.It doesn't do everything better, it has ups and downs.There is nothing wrong with the original except for the total loss of online functionality, which sullies how the game is supposed to be played.I overall found it more enjoyable than being alone on my 3ds being pestered about SP drinks I cant even buy.
>>736011821Yes.>>736012841Censored, so it's an immediate 0/10.
>>736011413The StarCraft remaster is really good, once you turn off some of the post-processing

>>736012798I dont remember if this video is from the same gamesbut its another showcase of decline and regress
>>736014716Pretty sure that clip is comparing Arkham Knight with Suicide Squad
>>736011413Its the insistence on more detail equating to looking better. I fucking hate that. Its not specifically realism but trying to achieve realistic lighting and overdetailed models and has just led to this shit where everything looks kindof ugly, and worse yet, all start to look the same. Its how you get characters like Spyro having wrinkles, theyre no longer just trying to make it look good, theyre trying to make it look detailed. Some stuff just does not translate to more detail well, its like trying to draw a cartoon character as though they are real, so you give them peach fuzz all over and laugh lines and a thousand yard state with hyper realistic eyes. They need to work backwards, making something more realistic doesnt mean it looks better, all this shit is starting to look the same too. Especially stuff that was more cartoony and stylized in the first place should not be doing this stuff, some stuff just does not translate to "realistic" and it loses all charm and aesthetic value when it tries to.
demons souls. im almost glad the remake studio was shut down.

>>736014103"I fucking hate videogames with all my soul" said the remaster developer as he sat down to start working.
Soul Reaver 1 and 2 are a perfect 1 for 1 remaster though

>>736021154>>736020948>>736020673It's amazing how even the most obscure B-grade bargain bin games' remasters still have shit like this these days. Not even by the luck of the draw will we ever get a faithful remake

>>736016289I wonder how bad a Saints Row 2 remaster/remake would be. The random NPCs were pretty shit, but I image they'd fuck up the cutscenes.

SONY DID IT AGAIN EVERYONE!!!!
>>736022018those blue spots are suppose to light up and highlight. they're barely noticeable in the remaster.
>>736021980it's unreal how they want to erase humanity's sins in vidya while insisting that you HAVE TO pay attention to the sins of those they personally dislike IRL.
>>736022105in the remaster you can't even tell there are parts that light up. it just look like paint.
>>736022105Practically everything about LE is better at this point and you're not changing my mind. Original Mass Effect had some really great style but 90% of the assets are all painfully dated
I've cracked the code!They're getting modern architects to remake games, hence everything has to be worse!I think they rebuilt the building in the image again and made it better, but I can't be bothered to look it up.
>>736017135They did.
>>736011413You forgot the blurriness and ghosting
>>736022434You're right, the brutalist abomination is gone.
>>736011825For this board there's no such thing as a good remaster, remake or whatever. Any change and people immediately cry about it and create threads for a fortnight about it, doesn't matter what the change is

>>736011825Anyone else pop a bottle of champagne when Bluepoint went out of business? Best vidya news of 2026The Shadow of the Colossus and Demon's Souls remakes are so fucking ugly. The environments in the remakes look pretty *only* in a vacuum; it's bland and safe in that Unreal Engine kind of way, and if you compare it directly to the originals you notice all the details lost or replaced that actively hurt the original atmosphere and environmental storytelling that made those games instant classics in the first placeI see more normies outside of 4chan start to wake up to the remaster/remake menace. I hope zoomers and gen alpha realize emulation is braindead simple and takes 2 minutes to set up, even PS2 games can run on 10 year old laptops, and that it beats buying the remake for $60-$70 every time
>>736011821I still prefer Resident Evil (2002) to Resident Evil (1996) and no amount of contrarianism will convince me otherwise. The remake is better, always was and always will be.
>>736011821The DS remakes of Dragon Quest 4-6 are objectively better than the originals
>>736012856It's not only necessary, it's obbligatory.
>>736030828Shame about the recent remakes of 1~3 and 7 though.I used to think Dragon Quest remakes were always better.
>>736022385>Practically everything about LE is better at this pointNo it isn't you fucking moron all the shadows are gone and the game fucked up the faces/texutres of everyone because they just did the textures for ME2/3 and backported them to the first game meaning people look completely different for no reason and don't "age" properly as the series goes It's also missing shitloads of animations and effects because it's based off of the god awful PS3 port Fuck you
>>736019414This genuinely makes me mad. What the actual fuck
>>736019547The problem is, artists try to make stuff as fast as possible these days cause they get paid shit.When artists are paid well you get the top pic and Akira, otherwise you get the bottom pic and One punch man S3.
baked lighting > dynamic lighting
>>736030927I played DQ1 for the first time fairly recently. I don't think I would recommend it to anyone as anything other than a historical oddity.
>>736019547I bet you could throw each element of the bottom image into an AI trained on old animation cels and tell it to look like a hand painted cel and 99.5% of viewers wouldn't be able to tell a difference but it'd be 1/10th as much work and 1/10th as expensive as actually hand painting every cel.
>>736011821I pre-emptively accept your concession.
>>736030463>>736030543I'm so glad that cancerous studio is dead
>>736031236Right still looks soulful
>>736031351Now we just need Blooberslop to shut down somehow
>>736011413demons souls remake is the opposite of this
>>736031351What gets me is, outside of /v/, the general sentiment is that Bluepoint was good, great even, and their remakes were some of the best ever made, and its a tragedy that they died. Even when talking to other hardcore gamers, outside of /v/ the public perception of them is that Demon's Souls and Shadow of the Colossus were better as remakes and Bluepoint were doing amazing work. I find it utterly baffling how anyone can think that, even among people who played the originals when they came out.
>>736030927>Shame about the recent remakes of 1~3you haven't played the DQ2 remake. it's a top 5 DQ game for me, behind 5, 8, 11 and 3 (SNES).it's the best Dragon Quest game in the past decade since 11's release. I can concede 1, 3 and 7, but 2 HD is fantastic and a top-tier jrpg on its own.the only flaw is there are a couple elements (specifically the thief's key / magic key) that now happen through story progression instead of being optional secrets you find. That aside it's still very open after you get the ship, far more than you'd expect for a "modern" game. It's also very well balanced, each party member feels useful and has maybe the best skill distribution in the series (nobody feels useless), the game is crunchy and the bosses are just right.if you do play it, turn off objective indicators and heal-on-level-up in Settings. Game does an excellent job guiding you old DQ style without the quest markers.
>>736028767zero .mission shouldn't be on your listThe music is way worse in it, the game is 1000x easier ..atmosphere and isolation out the window... handholder through the entire game..
>>736031236The issue with the front mission remakes is the ai generated portraits / pilot artworks
>>736031691The issue is they're made on a shoestring budget. All the issues with them stem from that. The front mission 1 remake cost less to make than your mom's SUV, but the thing is they're actually one of the few projects Squeenix made money on, their sales are shit, but the budget was low enough that they still made a profit, thus you now have 3 of them.
>>736031351I still see youtubers praising their work.
>>736031549People simply don't bother looking at comparisons. I'm surprised it's not a bigger thing. People love watching summaries of games, why wouldn't they like a comparison.
