Name the game
>>738069123Dark Souls Remaster. I'm pretty sure the drawing depicts the lighting difference between DS1 and the remaster.
>>738069123Final Fantasy X>every video essay and review of FFX in the past decade: "FFX is so beautiful">invariably uses footage from the HD versionthese guys are blind sheep with zero critical evaluation skills of their own. the consensus that FFX was a pretty game formed in 2001, so they parrot it, even though the version of the game in front of their eyes that they're exclusively using footage from looks uncanny and cheapit's not just the faces, EVERYTHING from lighting effects to skyboxes to textures (Kimahri's braces etc.) look worse. and it's not even a case of "oh well you have to put them up side by side to notice", just look at itI will never forgive Square Enix for this. and yes I will post this a million times
Is there a name for the mental disability that causes people to perceive visuals of higher quality as less due to rampant nostalgia?
>People were excited for another OOT remake when this is what we got the last time>>738070903You can't fucking tell me the 3DS game looked better than the N64 game.
>>738070967
>738070903no but is there a word for posting bait to boost thread engagement? I don't mind, keeping the thread afloat might make more people wake up to the r*make menace.all of you zoomers, if you like video games as art and not as toys to be made obsolete and replaced like a new iPhone, LEARN TO EMULATE! It's really easy.You want QoL? Honestly, fast-forward, save states and gameshark is more QoL than you'll ever need. I'd rather younger generations experience these games with some save scumming than a soulless Unreal Engine type slop remake (which likely ruins the balance in its own way anyway)for pic related, the fog is a central thematic element in Persona 4 and they completely fucked it up in Golden
>>738070819There is no reason to play FFX HD over emulating FFX International (PS2). On replays, I'm a fan of using codes for full party exp on emulator
>>738069123Dark Souls 2 trailers vs actual game
>>738069432The lighting looks better in the remaster
>>738071252alright kids, smile for the camera!
why do remakes do this?
>>738069123Some parts of the OOT 3DS remake, most infamously during the final fight against Ganon.
>>738069123AC Black Flag>hurr durr piss filterThat's not the issue.
>>738071364Nah. PTDE+DSfix is still the best way to play the game on PC if you don't care for multiplayer.
>>738069432The remaster was focusing on the switch port, they have to increase the brightness so you can see anything on that shit lcd screen under sunlight.
Bioshock remaster has some spots were it just looks terrible, but there are some spots that looks nice and even better than the original in some cases. But seriously, what happened to lighting? Even in the older remasters it just looks so bad. What happened to shadows. Shadows and darkness aren't just used to hide, it's also used to add contrast to a scene where there is light casting shadow. We don't have a constant ring light on us at all times.
>>738069123Video game lighting/shading is truly a lost art
>>738072641funny you would say that because the switch port was handled by a different developer and is the only port that retains the lighting of the original/ptde
Meanwhile the opposite is true for RE4
>>738074737Nobody says this
>>738069123I have this feeling with the Pokemon remakes. Lance went from a badass champion to just a guy. Likewise for many of the other trainers who just give off a lazy looking feel.
>>738069123All of them.
>>738074737
>>738069123Every single one of them.
>>738069432that's so minor compared to the OP lol
>>738070819>>738071252>sky, probably just a simple 2D texture>somehow got worse and less detailedIs this the power of modern gaming?
Legit show me a good remaster. I feel that would be harder than finding ops idea Old games used post processing effects to cover up digital flaws, and it helped the atmosphere at the same time. Remasters want to show their graphics without understanding the atmosphere and then get angry when they spend all their time on a texture increase for it to be covered by fog. But ffs they lack yhe ability to see how the minor differences build up to a whole

>>738070903The thing that makes people prefer games made by Whites/Japanese over Indians is RACISM, you are describing RACISM, anon.
>>738069432You could just adjust contrast in the remaster settings and it would just like the left image in terms of darkness.
>>738071871because it's not the same people and they likely don't contact the original artists either so you never know what vision they originally hadi wonder if they bother contacting the original artists for remakes at all

>>738069123pso2ngs
>>738078685I can accept shitty ports/remasters from older consoles that used custom hardware dedicated to lighting techniques, but this was a game that was made for Windows. How do they fuck up that hard?
>>738072641The switch port is similar to the original game you tard, have a talking out of his ass award.
>>738078952Sorry I'm too white and stupid and need yellow paint to point me in the right direction cause I don't have to time to figure things out anymore like when I was a child.
>>738078952Always amazes me how you faggots create incredibly accurate mspaint comics
>>738079107>I'm too whiteThat game isn't for you then. :(
>>738078939it was a game that used custom coding dedicated to dx9 lighting techniques. when they force upgraded it to dx11 it ruined everything.
>>738079151
>>738079287kek
>>738078952>soulful, thematic UI replaced by minimalist square/diamond white icon UIincredible call out
>>738076304Most of NightDive's remasters are great. The philosophy behind their graphical enhancements is basically to make the games look like you remember them looking, as opposed to something like the horror show in pic related from Aspyr. But one of the most important aspects is that you can always turn the enhancements off completely, which is a feature I greatly miss in many re-releases, and is an option that I think should be mandatory. Because if they don't, then that basically dooms the original version of the game from ever being available on modern platforms. There's no way we'll ever see the original Demon's Souls or Dark Souls again now, so the only options are dusting off original hardware or emulation.
>>738079246Couldn't they just use DX9 again?
>>738071871from honest looking worker to Oh vey
>>738080319this is the era where japanese developers do not want self cannibalizing games so they stick to the formula while overwriting the previous games. they're not ever gonna fix the mess they made, to them its an added bonus of resetting their player feedback legacy and being able to offer less with lowered standards. any good that has done for the series.
>>738069123AI saves the SVOL
>>738081019>>738080913>>738080549almost everything in this thread is just nice contrast/colors for original and washed out colors/blurriness/fog in the remakeI don't know why it's so difficult to not make games look like that but every new game has looked like that for so long at this point

>>738070819>>738071252What the fuck
>>738070819both have always looked like totally shit to me
>>738081420the scary part is people praise the remaster
>>738070967There's no such thing as a good looking DS/3DS game.
>>738078420It's not just the brightness.They broke the roughness maps so light doesn't bounce off surfaces as it should.The new lighting is more technically demanding, but the original had better art direction because roughness map are made by hand.
what if they stopped making this shit? literally nobody would be worse off
>>738081374Wow how subversive, I'm sure this trope hasn't become stale.
>>738081536this doubles as a great example of how making shit for an esports crowd sucks the soul out of any game
>>738070819The sky difference holy shit
>>738081727>There are people who defend the 3DS remake
>>738081603remakes/remasters take less effort and often make more money than the original
>>738071154>anti soul gas>anti soul-gas japanNo but seriously, it's straight up looks like someone slapped a shitty texture pack and reshade mod onto it. In this case the Remake might actually be preferable.

God they're all so bad. How can you fuck up copying something that already worked so badly every single time?

>>738082353That doesn't mean to have to crank up the contrast to 200%.>how should we replicate this foggy dismal atmosphere>I know, let's make everything look like a Mr.Beast thumbnail
>>738082514pretty sure they're flipped
>>738082514It's real.
>>738082481this is genuinely disgracefulYakuza 3 fans can't catch a break
>>738082547they aren't, nu-yakuza uses square minimaps
>>738081374IM SAD
>>738081881no. i refuse to believe.
>>738075739Gen 3 in particular did away with a lot of the sharper colors, and I think it was to the overall detriment. The games are pretty ugly in a passive sort of way
>>738078552In spyro's case they absolutely had the original concept art sketches for various characters in the trilogy especially the gnorcs.They even had the original gnorc design in the reveal trailer and were told to change it because too many cooks.
>>738082814t-then it's surely because the bottom one is for the switch, r-right?
>>738082514it's fake don't fall for it
>>738078952minimalism will always be my enemy
All of the examples in this thread, all of the fucked up models, the dogshit lighting. In each case, how many Indians worked on the original vs the remaster?
>>738069123All of them except Dead Space.
>>738082892It's real. Someone made an hour-long analysis on ithttps://youtu.be/UokSL_j7Ot8?si=wpuzb_fIa25lOt6E&t=255
>>738082892>>738083340And it gets much worse
>>738070903Sorry, I don't speak zoomebonics
>>738082339They did fuck up the lighting but there were some actually good changes in Legendary Edition. One example is they removed a wall in a major mission hub that was originally only there to help the environment load. Another example is they changed a sidequest villain to be the right race (his motivation literally made no sense as a human, but they just slapped a human model on him originally). I think they also made it so you could dash for longer without getting tired. I don't like the changes to EXP balancing and allowing assault rifles on all classes though, that makes the game too easy.
>>738083030100% for the San Andreas remaster.For all the others, at least 1000 if the game released after 2020.
>>738079514>they know what I remember them beinguh?
Ocarina 3D was mostly a fine job but it wasn't perfect
>>738083406JUST Persona 5™ MY SHIT UP
>>738082514>>738082481I don't like modern Yakuza but I played the Kiwami 3 demo and it looks good but you need HDR enabled.
>>738069123Halo 1 got raped the hardest
>>738083067Some rain drops are behind the drops that hit the camera lens. They added a stupid effect and also fucked it up.
>>738071871Because remasters are 99% of the time just a pure cashgrab meant to take advantage of peoples nostalgia to rebuy the game. The people involved are generally talentless hacks that have no connection to the original dev team and couldnt care less about maintaining the look or feel of the original game.
>>738083671This thread is about BAD remasters. The Raziel model is borderline perfect.
>>738083671>>738083764>literally same lighting you retarded faggots will never cease to surprise me
>>738083749This looks like what would happen if you asked AI to remaster your game
>>738083914awful
>>738083943The contrast is way stronger in Silent Hill 2 than the bloober game.
>>738083943you're blind
>>738083943I hope you are trolling, Anon. For your sake.
>>738083943(you) havent played it. the remake runs like trash and every character looks like trash
>>738083986That's literally what he looks like in the pre-rendered cutscenes of the original. If you don't like it, fine, but then you don't like the original either at which point why complain about the remaster?
>>738084085right looks better
>>738083506>>738083556>DUDE WHAT IF EVERY SCENE HAD SMOKE-MACHINE LEVELS OF FOG EVEN THOUGH ITS A 20FT DISTANCEbehead all modern game developers, this shit is depressing to look at
>>738084153Both are official art unrelated to the remaster, as is pic related.
>>738083671This one does not belong here.
>>738078952So the SOVLFUL original is the same cluttered UI slop but with less rhombuses?
>>738084091I remember when New & Tasty was released and consoomers argued that we should support this hideous dogshit so the devs can defile Oddworld even more in the future.
>>738083764Eh. SH2R isn't really SH2 but it does look decent.
>>738084258contrast is all wrong
>>738084296That happens every time a remake releases.
>>738084231Your indian demaster still looks like shit sorry
>>738081881>>738083442LOOKIN' GOOD!!!
>>738069123Spyro and crash
>>738078193I knew something felt off when I played this after getting it on a steam sale for a couple bucks after originally playing it on a console I don’t have anymore, I thought it was just uglier than I remember but goddamn this fucking stinks, these lazy remaster niggas are ruining our memories of older games, never buying a remaster again
>>738084289It's better for something in a game to be mildly cumbersome than extremely boring.
>>738081727I have a strong suspicion it simply is the way it is because the 3D effect looks ass in dark scenes which makes ghosting apparent.In that sense it might look worse than the original in this format but makes sense on the actual hardware
>>738084384How so?
>>738084619>>738083671
>>738070819Oddly enough X-2 HD is completely fine.

>>738084642>bright blue character is bright blue>this is wrongLiterally more accurate to the original look. Have you even played Soul Reaver?
>>738083969The last one is an improvement though.The ice cream track is the most apparent mobile asset flip on DX but feels like an actual track in World
>>738078801>>738078929I noticed they bought over the original mass effect 2 and 3 games onto steamare they really worth it compared to the legendary edition?
>>738084717>Have you even played Soul Reaver?I'm playing it right now and it looks like the left >>738083671
>>738078952demon souls
>>738084810So not like its supposed to? You realize that old games didn't look like concept art, not because the devs didn't want them to, but because the technology simply wasn't there yet, and that pre-rendered cutscenes were the ACTUAL representations of the artist' vision?
Why is everything so goddamn bright in these remakes?
>>738081727Seriously. The fact he's just a dark silhouette and only briefly revealed under lightning strike is so good.
>>738081471>earring, 5 polygons, easily visible, sharp>earring, blurry texture
>modern game devs when you tell them they cannot make a diamond/square shaped minimalistic UI
>>738081727It's a video game, not a movie. You're supposed to be able to see shit clearly.
>>738081727>his tail becomes a rainbow dessertHoly shit>>738084091HOLY SHIT
>>738085048nothing is allowed to look dark and moody now for some reason, everything has to be bright and in your face. it doesnt help that generally the people that get tasked with working on remakes like this are lackeys that give zero fucks about what the game is supposed to look like, theyre just there to collect a paycheck
>>738085295Yeah but the original boss fight wasn't very frustrating to begin with. They made it that dark because it didn't affect the difficulty, so fuck it, why not up the atmosphere?
>>738085048Natural pendulum swing in the other direction after the dark and brown era, we're going to return to dark grittiness at some point I wager.
>>738085009>it was SUPPOSED to look like shit so now you like it right?No.Two more points: Concept artist and pre-rendered cutscene guy are different people.>tech bad!PS1 was perfectly capable of making a model with poor shading but since the devs had talent and pride and weren't hired for a quick cash grab remaster they actually tried and put soul into their work.
>>738085295modem movies have the opposite problem where everything is darker
>>738081727>that fucking .gif tier looking fire ring around the arena>complete lack of dark brooding sky and arena being lit up by the lightning strikestop is pure cinematic lvdokino and bottom is for babies and redditors basedfacing at their tiny 2 inch 3ds cuck screen

>>738069432>>738071364>The lighting looks better in the remaster
>>7380709673DS remake haters literally only have one argument, every fucking time. The Ganon fight (0.0002% of the entire game).They brightened up the absurdly dark scene because the game was going to be played on a fucking tinyass handheld screen with sun glare on it.>b-but muh water temple is too easy nowDon't care about that gatekeeping nonsense either.
>>7380858832009 didn't have leds blowing up entire rooms with artificial suns retard. they had charismatic flurosent glow that lent atmosphere. this lighting makes you question why the fuck is the lamp even on.
Still the worst one
>>738086212>>738086456the blind fanboyism around bluepoint was seriously something to behold, i still dont understand it. everything they touched remake wise turned to absolute shit, but it was like sacrilege saying anything against them online. i played sotc on ps2 and then again on ps3 ( i have the platinum trophy for it even) and when i played it on ps4 i immediately knew it was fucking trash. i could probably pull up my trophy stats and see that i played it for like an hour on launch day and then never touched it again. absolute fucking trash
>>738086754>pre-rendered to in-engineI understand why it looks shit, I just don't understand why they bothered going through the effort to make something that was going to look worse.
>>738075739I really miss the edgy anime look the originals had
>>738082481I think the part about this that makes people the most mad is that this is the version of the game that will be available to everyone forever.
>>738084289Anon. I know you're retarded, but at least understand that if there was any color and detail in the illustration, the left would obviously have some coloration and depth to the UI design, wheread the right would be the same sterile white line UI we've been seeing for the better part of a decade for most modern AAA titles.

>>738086805to be fair, they lost the assets for KH1 and had to remake it essentially from scratch
Why is the deliberate color grading of the original always fucked up?You literally have the original there for reference. You don't have to do any creative thinking of your own. And you still fuck it up.
>>738087452modern games use universal lighting. old games use baked lighting. universal is easier because you just set it once and don't worry about it. you have to redo every scene with baked lighting. so basically modern devs are just lazier.

>>738082064There's a Subnautica remake?
>>738088860>More lost technology?sort of, the way the emotion engine rendered fog was insane for its time and iirc was largely software based. maybe its not right to call it lost, because they know how it works, its just that no one working on some low effort remake is going to go through the effort to remake that look
>>738083656Maybe my wording was clumsy and it's a bit tough to explain, but you know how you played a game as a kid, and after 10-20 years of not touching it you've sort of formed an image in your mind of what it looked like? Then you go back to actually play it and you're slightly taken aback because you don't remember it looking quite THAT primitive. What NightDive typically does in their remasters is just bridge that gap. Slightly increase the texture resolution, slightly increase the polycount on the models, subtly improve the lighting system, fix up some technical issues like the wonky camera projection in early 3D shooters like Blood. But the enhancements are still mostly recognizable as the original thing, and not something completely re-imagined, nor do they force a bunch of blurry filters on everything.

>>738078801>>738078929I will never forgive Biofart (or whoever) for demastering ME1. The original game's graphics were designed to have a cinematic style to them but they flushed that down the toilet for generic assets and terrible lighting. Seeing these comparison images makes me realize why people uninstalled the "legendary" edition before finishing the first mission.

"remastering things like you le remember them" is just marketing speak for "we need to justify tinkering with something that only really needs a patch for compatibility and modern controllers".>>738081881Oh this pisses me off so much>Gung Ho literally applied a smear filer because "It wouldn't look HD" , their words>spend a year hyping it would be a port of the Saturn version>it's just the shitty PS1 version with wrong textures and a smear filter>FMVs in the wrong aspect ratioGung Ho are niggers>>738099665>might as well restart my playthrough on an emulator, now that duckstation is in an actually great stateThe superior Saturn original has English text in it now, play that.
>>738101275is the saturn version way superior to PSX undub? I kinda want to at least be able to do some achievment set as an extra because I kinda like having checklists like that while playing and for some reason saturn grandia 1 doesnt have any sets, is it really way better than PSX?
>>738101576>is the saturn version way superior to PSX undub?Saturn was the original system it was made for and utilized its hardware to its advantage.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UL6Z9xvt7h0Note how the ground texture in the first town is all misaligned with the buildings in PS1.>is it really way better than PSX?Yes.
>>738070819>>738071252>post the 2 ugliest characters>THIS LOOKS LIKE SHIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>738101780I thought whoever made this video was a retard for not syncing the game footage but then I realized they did it intentionally to show how the PSX version runs faster/lags less.The Saturn version definitely has cleaner visuals even without the notorious PSX pixel wobble but it seems like it doesn't run at a consistent framerate? Or maybe this is a case of PAL 50mhz?
>>738101780damn wth there is even shadows in the original and the city textures are completely different in some sections thats insane, guess I have no choice but go OG
>>738087806At least someone went and made a mod to replace the voices
persona 3
>>738071154fucking hell, third one on the right looks like an EDF screenshot.
>>738094242Adding phong shading on top of cell shading looked fucking tarrible. Defeats the entire point of cell shading and ironically makes the Wii U remaster look more dated.
>>738103493I'll never understand why they did this.
>>738103542>look! shiny new graphics!
>>738084091That's just sad.Truly soul vs soulless in a single image.Lol.
>>738103542Lazy way of making it look 'upgraded' enough to justify the pricing.
>>738103542remasters sell more than re-releases. for some reason changes like this make people want to buy it.
>>738081452The PS2 was absurdly good at making transparency effects in the "traditional method".To port the effects from the PS2 correctly you have to write pixel shaders that redo the effect from the ground up, as just using transparencies like the PS2 did would wreck the modern platforms.But people just remove it instead.
>>738103493It's not just the phong, there's indirect lighting too.Everytime link is in a darker spot ,it immediately turns into a CG character
>>738072641The switch port is literally the PS3/360 version running at a locked 30fps, they made it fit in that 4GB cartridge by completely running the audio, which you can fix with custom firmware.
>>738103493>phong shading on top of cell shadingThey literally got rid of the cel shading.
>>738082481Jesus WTF
>>738100427Why did you even reply, you whiny bitch?
>>738084619Raziel kinda caked up ngl
>>738101780>ground texturesHow could they fuck up so bad? There was clearly a design to the original placement, on PS1 the city looks like a total mess. The PS1 version doesn't even have shadows.
>>738076304Medievil on ps4 is a faithful retexture with some QoL features, shit absolutely wasn't worth the $60 they asked for, but it was a good remake.
>>738096584Retards like Graf Zahl exist IRL. That's why.
>>738105309Both consoles worked very differently from each other. Saturn used Quad primitives, which fucked up performance on other devices.
>>738084289>unironically using slopOnce again proving my theory that people who parrot this word are midwits that think they understand anything about gaming.

>>738087760Gamefreak is pretty much the only japanese company that keeps the source code of their games, they also keep prototypes, betas and even discarded ideas (to later revisit and reuse), which is funny because their games have been shit since gen 6, arguably 5. They put more effort into archiving than actually delivering a good game.
>>738106857>company has been making the same games from the beginning>but gen 5/6 is where it started getting badDo you even read what you type?

>>738069432>Switch release is old version with some extra fluffCompressed ass audio tho, but is best rerelease by far.
>>738101275>Too bad they're faggots.I don't know what that means in this case, nor do I care, nor do I see why anyone else would if the product is good.>No, not really, because I never stopped playing these old games and know what they should look like.OK cool, so why even bother with any of this? You obviously don't need any new versions if you've had the originals running nicely on your setup all this time. "Compatibility patches and modern controllers are anachronistic and not the true experience or true game. And for faggots." - You, if you had any consistent logic in your brain.This is all moot anyway since like I said, you can always just switch to the original graphics. If they aren't good value for you then you're free to go back to DOSBox or whatever, but that doesn't change the fact that they're generally the best, most respectful, authentic, and comprehensive remasters around.
>>738107923If you don't consider the developer's political alignment when buying a game, you're literally an alt-right nazi incel chuderino.
>>738087005Fortunately not since the originals (more or less) of 3,4,5 were released on modern platforms years ago. Only the PS2 originals of 1 and 2, as well as Dead Souls appear to be lost to time/emulation.
>>738096584Unfortunately a lot of people out there have absolutely terrible taste. Same reason you get remasters of old movies that are completely smeared and smoothed out to the point the people barely even look human anymore.
