So last month the CEO of Nightdive teased possibly doing an Eternal Darkness remaster (it's his white whale)Thoughts?Would be weird to see Nightdive do something console-exclusive and I can't imagine Nintendo selling it without something of equal value in return (ala the Wonderful 101/Astral Chain rumor that I'm honestly not fully confident on)
>>750608146Weird if it's just a remasterNintendo often prefers remakes for dormant IPs to test the waters that a new developer can inherit the IP and make more of it
>>750608146Would be weird to see Nightdive do something console-exclusiveMakes more sense nowadays. Wouldn't be surprised if we saw one or 2 AI recomps of ED whipped up within the next few weeks. Consoles players don't have access to that
>>750608146Good game. There will probably be a free decomp with hd graphics and stuff out before they finish though I imagine. If they add new content or something it might be worth getting. There's a working recomp already with hd textures and other things, i don't know if it's ai or not though
>>750608790I was honestly expecting Nintendo to put the game up for NSO since they did Luigi's Mansion last year. There's still two more days left in October, who knows if they'll do anything with the game at this point.
I'd rather have a proper remake with overhauled combat. That was the worst part of the game.
lollmao
>>750608146Silicon Knights are dead, is he the same CEO from that company?
>>750608146>Nightdive pretending that they are still relevant in the age of AI recomps
>>750608146If they do actually get to do it, i'd hope they look to reimplementing some cut content. Possibly some new sanity effects, and maybe a new mode that makes sanity more of an issue for the player to deal with, considering how easy it is to keep high the entire game.
>>750610236No, that was Denis Dyack, who hasn't done a damn thing but kickscammer since Timmeh blew him the fuck out.
>>750610335>Implying anyone outside of a handful of retards care about jeetcomps
>>750610408damn rip
>>750608146..but Eternal Darkness already has a PC remaster, It got Ported to PC a few days ago. You don't even need to buy it again, you can just use your old copy. It has widescreen, better resolution, probably mod support, you can even play it in first person.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dw_Ydd8nQNchttps://github.com/griches/EternalDarknessRecomp
>>750610335I still appreciate their work, even if there's other options.
>remaster probably comes out worse than a fan port
>>750610687I appreciate them getting their jobs stolen by AI, because they are faggots.
In the age of AI recomps I'm surprised you aren't seeing MORE companies rush out quick ports and "remasters" of their games
What if it's a co-developed remake with someone else?
They're also owned by Atari now
>>750610602Eternal Brapness
Please Night DiveThis game is a fucking classic that deserves to be played by all
>>750610926I don't support jew dickwashers, so I don't care if this faggot is crying about trump.
only if they redesign the game so you don't have to purposely play like a retard to experience any of the interesting parts
>>750608146... why would you ever want a remaster? Have you seen all the other remasters from the last decade? Why would you ask for this?
>>750610408>>750610536I got curious and checkedhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/1142050/Deadhaus_Sonata/>early access>proc gen hack and slash>with vampires and other undeads in itHoly shit, it's like I'm back in the worst era of my life. 2005 and in school.
>>750612820is this broken beyond mods like Alone in the Dark or something
>>750613936that cartoonish retail wow graphic style looks so bad
>>750613987It's almost impossible to get it working properlyIt's extremely buggy on modern systemsEven the GOG version has a ton of issues
>>75060814610 years ago I would've tried to use this a way to rationalize Pious Augustus being in Smash and hold onto this rumor as copium10 years ago I was an even bigger idiot than I am now
>>750609818Does Nintendo still own the rights to Eternal Darkness? Or is that in some kind of ownership limbo?
>>750608146I hate Nightdive for releasing their 1,488 year-old code under the GPL instead of permissive license, and I wish them the worst.
>>750619465Yeah apparently the studio tried to get the rights before they closed down but it didn't get finished in time so Nintendo still has them.
>>750619465Nintendo owns Eternal DarknessDyack himself has been vocal about it and Alex Roivas made it as a spirit in Smash Bros
>small indie studio o algx, please understand
>refuse to use anything from the actual Build engine in their shitmasters of Blood>have the original game code of Blood, no plans to release it to the public, period
>>750612820Isnt this basically a movie with little bits of gameplay in between.
>>750610602>Uses the PAL version only>Steam Deck is the main development platformWhat a fucking waste of this guy's time. He didn't use AI and he still found a way to fuck it all up.
>>750608146Imagine how disgusting the color palette will look, no thanksNintendo allowed TW101 and Baten Kaitos 2 re-releases on other platforms, it's doable.>>750619780The CEO of Nightdive did cut ties with that other company after the guy who owns it asked for less political radicalization after I think Charlie Kirk was assassinated.
>>750619889>Nintendo allowed TW101They gave Platinum their half of the rights
>>750619925Well yeah, but the point is that Nintendo may be willing to relinquish the rights to it. Gamecube/Wii games are well primed for remasters that reach modern visual quality, Nintendo should push for both a remaster and a sequel from a new studio, just be careful this time and don't go with someone completely braindead like wayforwad.
>>750620010Nobody in their right mind gives away an IP for free
>>750620330Well yeah.
>>750608146If they added to what was the cut content and made the different gods have substantially different levels and polished the magic and combat and made shit prettier and spookier then FUCK YEAH
Just play the original on a crt. RETARDS!
>>750621947Came here to post this I forgot it was a gif, it got me
>>750609818It's not one of their babies so they don't acknowledge it all that often
>>750610335Nightdive is allowed to publish their games on consoles howeverbeit
