By Aspyr, the ones who remastered Tomb Raider 1-6.

>>12052912That's not JC Denton, that's
>>12052914>that upperbar Skyrim V II AUGMENTED EDITION What a shame.
Looks like NightDive garbage
why does it look like this
>>12052924DC Jenkem
looks awful
>>12052914
>>12052910What a shame. What a rotten way to be remastered.
>>12052910Kentie's is still the best way to play this right? I just wish there was a good way to fix the scope/binoculars problem. It looks so tiny if you play at high resolutions.I tried finding a fix but it involved editing a texture, and it only worked for 1 resolution, if I wanted to play on a laptop or change screens it would look off again.
>>12052910so the remaster is to make a 2000 game look like a 2002 game...? and to butcher the lighting...?
>>12052958It's Kentie's launcher + Unofficial Community Patch. The scope problem is indeed fixed.
>>12052914What the fuck is that?!!
>>12052910All a remaster needs to do is work on modern systems. A stable experience.
They should remaster the underrated ps2 version, instead.
>>12053003Can you use a mouse and keyboard with this?
>>12053048Yeah. The PS2 version supports USB M+K.
>>12053048You can>>12053003Would be very interesting>>12052910I think people in this thread would prefer a ground up remake instead of looking like a Doom 3 mod.
kek
>>12053058>I think people in this thread would prefer a ground up remakethe people in this thread are not the target audience. it'll profit like the gta 3 trilogy remaster and be forgotten in a month, plus tip
>>12053060>Blatant AI "upscaling"They didn't even try did they
>>12052910Wew, now that's doodoo
>>12052910>>12052912>>12052914this looks like ass, even fanmade mods look more pleasing and faithful
>>12052910People buy remasters and remakes so this is why they come out so often. We passed the point a while ago where it was just new paint on the same wall. I love Deus Ex but I would never pay for this.
a blatant cheap cashgrab. I wonder how much they stole from unofficial mods. Watch a bunch of pinheads and shills aggressively defend it Steam discussions, just like the all the other half assed remastered like System Shock 2. I hate people.
this has to be AI. No art direction at all.
>>12053086looks like Doom 3 graphics
>>12052912i don't think i noticed the thing on his hand until just now. what is that even supposed to be, fiberoptic wiring? i thought that him and paul were supposed to be basically identical to normal humans.
>>12052912>that lightingWhy are modern devs afraid of darkness?They removed all his grit too.
>>12053194looks like portraits are unchanged?
HOLY soulless!
>let's take a game from 2000 and update the assets so they look like they're from a 2005 game while keeping the same old animations i don't get it, who asked for this
>>12053216>so they look like they're from a 2005 gameInvisible War looks leagues ahead of this shit
>>12053086Why the new models look so unnaturally shiny?
>>12052910>the ones who remastered Tomb Raider 1-6.If that was all they remastered I wouldn't be worried, but they recently released the NWN2 remaster and that was an absolute dumpster fire full of gamebreaking bugs.
I hate the phrase "demake" because it's used so much by salty bitches but what the fuck else am I supposed to call this? I wanted to say "they should have just remade it from the ground up" but it appears they did and dear god it looks bad. And not even in a 2025 modern remake bad way, but like a bad 2010s remake bad way.
>>12052914>deus ex if he running on a beta build of idtech 3 with assets from a random early gamecube game thrown in
>Storage: 20 GB available space
>>12053278looks like nwn2 is not getting its patch 1 kek
>>12052914>even the video is constantly bugging out
>>12052910You can download the game for free and then go to moddb and download some good mods and even extra levels and storylines if that's your thing.
>>12053365brother i ain't tryna fiddle with my pc or some shit i juss wanna play games
I don't particularly care for the retarded normalfag hate bandwagon going on right now. It's too little pushback, way too late. These motherfuckers saw countless games -- literally hundreds of them at this point -- get raped by companies and suddenly they draw the line at Deus Ex? I even noticed retards comparing this to the GTA Definitive Edition debacle, which is ironic because that heap of fucking garbage somehow sold 14M copies. So this will too, it's just basic economics. The funniest fucking part is that no one has actually played Deus Ex, at least no one who is currently trying to pretend Aspyr are the "LJN of modern gaming" now (real comment I saw, btw). This performative outrage is purely because they got the signal that this remaster is bad bad not good, even though they have no real basis to say it looks bad and are simply operating off gut reaction (Read: Their favorite streamer said it's ugly, as if the OG game isn't also fucking hideous).Ultimately I just think it's kind of weird, you know? We're finally at the stage where old games can look on par with pre-rendered CGs but according to normalfags and elitists and ragebaiters if you have anything but absolute feverish hatred for this you're *checks notes* a brownoid slopjeet turdworlder or something. And don't act like this isn't the exact fucking script everyone over on /v/ follows now.
>>12053179Nerves of steel.
>>12052910>>12052912>>12052914>>12053086
>>12053509Okay, here we go again. Some guy writes a manifesto about normalfags and bandwagons. Buddy, you’re not exposing corruption in the Vatican, you’re just yelling at people for yelling. You're doing the exact same thing you claim to hate, only with more swear words and fewer commas. And this whole 'basic economics, it'll sell anyway'. Yeah, thanks Milton Friedman. People buy garbage all the time. Doesn't make you Nostradamus, it just makes you Captain Obvious.You're not above the outrage, you're just in a different flavor of it. It's like complaining about traffic while you're sitting in the same jam, honking louder than everyone else. Congratulations, you’re part of the thing you think you're smarter than.
>>12053548At least I bothered to make my post even tangentially related to the topic.
>>12053574My reply was literally to your post. That is the topic. You don't get extra credit for mentioning the game's name like it's a magic password. You wrote a rant, I called out the holes in it, that's how conversations work. Acting like you're the only one 'on topic' is like bragging you showed up to a pizza place and ordered pizza. Yeah, no kidding, champ. You want a medal for doing the bare minimum?
>>12052910>>12052914this is happening because people praised those godawful tomb raider remasters
>>12052912This would've looked great... if we were living in 2004.What the fuck were they thinking?!
>>12053604it literally looks worse than the original, are you retarded
>>12052914>check the comments>they're angry because it's just a remaster and not a remake
>>12052924JD Vancem?
>>12053003The problem is mandatory loading times. Just like invisible war on pc.
I'll buy it if you can toggle on the old graphics and if it's somewhat bug free. Would love to replay it wherever on my Switch 2.
>>12053509>The funniest fucking part is that no one has actually played Deus ExI admit I usually stop around Paris, but I've beaten it twice.
>>12052912It looks like a different person. I hate when they do that.
>>12052940It's not made by Nightdive.it would've been much worse than this.
>>12053606Are (you)?
>>12053698Don't Nightdive at least usually let you toggle everything on or off to go back to the original? Or was that just heretic/hexen?And yes, this looks like dogshit, and I was surprised at how many normies eat it up and are excited on places like twitter.
>>12053698nightdive would've copied one of the mods and release it as their own remaster because that's what they usually do
>>12053278>NWN2 remaster and that was an absolute dumpster fire full of gamebreaking bugs.Sounds like NWN in general. Aurora and IE are both god-awful buggy engines.
Will you at least be able to switch to the old character models? Aspyr never changed the character models for their Star Wars remasters, why would the do it now?
I still can't get over how this is a 2025 "remaster" of a 2000 game, and they purposefully made it look like a 2004 game or something. Just... why?
>>12053850To "sell" the game. Again. Despite the IP being dead.
>company previously remasters a game called Soul Reaver>reaves all soul from the games they remasterhow ironic
>>12053509>t. Aspyr dev
>>12052910Meh, who gives a shit. I'll keep playing the original.
>>12052912>no glowing eyesLiterally soulless.
>>12053926they're lens flare.
>>12053850>>12053897>>12053910>>12053921>>12053923I think you guys would change your minds if you could play it for free. That's the real problem here, this isn't a game worth paying for.
>>12053937asshole, it looks like absolute shit. i wouldn't waste my mind with AI remastered graphics when I own and play the original, even if I got the demaster for free.quit assuming dumb shit and making yourself look like a genuine dicksucker
>>12053939What a rude reply. I also own and play the original you son of a bitch, and guess what, there are hundreds (thousands?) of free mods you can get to change or totally augment your gaming experience. So your post was totally unnecessary.
Was hoping for a Oculus Quest 3 remaster/port/remake with voice recognition and keyboard support..
>>12053937I wouldn't play it even if it was free.
>>12053950If I had the last remaining copy of Deus Ex remaster, I'd drag it into my recycle bin and delete. Fuck jeetmasters and fuck ai.
>>12053937When GMDX already exists, I don't see the need for this personally. Those guys at least tried to do something interesting and new with the base game too.Really - you can see from the trailer that this is less 'let's do Deus Ex in HD' and more 'let's make Deus Ex sellable for PS5 owners'. I'd much rather they did a decent sequel if they were looking to do that.
Why? Just port the game as it was to modern platforms and add qol and control interfaces that fit the platform. Why always fool around with the visuals and soundtrack?
>>12053574nah he shit on u dude lol
>>12052910Did they make his hairline worse? This is genuinely diabolical.
>>12053958>Really - you can see from the trailer that this is less 'let's do Deus Ex in HD' and more 'let's make Deus Ex sellable for PS5 owners'.I'm not so sure about that. There is already an epic ps2 port of Deus ex for ps4 and ps5.
>>12053937If it were free then I might TRY it some day. I'm sure it'd be better than Revision with its pointless walls and mess of decorative items.
Is the story in this game goodd?
>>12054114It's grrrrreat!
The #1 thing I love about these demakes is that not a single person is forced to buy them. I can slightly sympathize with people who might not have anything else than a smart phone and a ps5 in their house so they can't just download these old games for free, it's probably the only market which makes sense.
>>12053509it looks disgusting mate I don't know what to sayPeople are comparing it to the GTA remasters because it has the same mix of>outdated/mismatched looking shaders with lots of basic ass specular reflections>quickly slapped together character models with uncanny looking proportions that show very little care was given to capturing the likeness of the original (this is different from, say, the spyro remasters, where a lot of characters were openly redesigned. in this one, they're different people wearing the same clothes)>ai upscaled looking textures with hilarious typosit looks extremely low effort and that's why people are complaining
>>12053960Exactly what I was saying earlier. Just give people the old, trusty, authentic experience but on modern platforms with features like support for 4K and high frame-rates.Btw I think you can remake Deus Ex but you need to do it in a carefully considered way.
>>12052940>>12053698Nightdive remasters usually look decent wtf are you talking about
>>12053767No I mean it's far buggier than even the normal version of the game on gog
>>12053060You see, this is actually an update to be more realistic; in the future, all tech industries will be ruled by nepo-hire jeets with an elementary understanding of English.>>12053194Classic "remaster" shit, just make everything bright as fuck for no reason. Also, this might be a really autistic thing to complain about, but that font looks like shit.
>>12053509It's almost as if the audience for most slop remakes are retarded children who kind of heard of the original once, while most of the audience for something like a DX remake are people who have actually played the original game.I don't know why you think the disgust is performative. I was just as disgusted by RE2's demake.
>>12054329>Classic "remaster" shit, just make everything bright as fuck for no reasonRaytracing gods say that's how light behaves so it's automatically better
>>12053509ok sir rape you next week ok
>>12053698lol retard
>>12052912>>12052924That's Johnny Gatthey turned our guy into johnny fucking gat
>>12052941This looks better. They aren't using any ambient occlusion. None of the geometry feels grounded in NuDeus Ex.
>>12053197
>>12054329>all tech industries will be ruled by nepo-hire jeetsExcept India and Pakistan already nuked each other in the game if you read the datacubes
>>12052914ION ENTERTAINMENT HIRE THIS MAN
>>12054508Half their population will already be in North America and Europe by that point so I fail to see how that's relevant.
>>12054521There is not a single pajeet you can see or meet. That includes in the US, Europe, and Hong Kong. Your assumptions are flawed.
>>12052914Every single reply here is negative. Is there nothing that will satisfy you? I think you guys get off at negativity.
>>12054597are you blind?does it look good to you?
>>12054597>Is there nothing that will satisfy you?The original game does
>>12054446Wait, the rear of the GEP gun was modeled?>>12053937There are FREE mods to make it look "better".
>>12053086That's terror.
>>12053086The one on the right looks like a freaking plastic toy.
>>12054767I think ai fucked his shirt up too. I dont think it was a metal plate. Absolute garbage.
>>12052914Reminds me of all the shitty games made in those 3D game making tools from the early 2000's like FPS Creator
>>12052910>>12052912>>12052914Holy fuck this looks Bad. A 12 year old modding Enthusiast could have done better.
what a shame
Still have yet to see a single coherent reason we're supposed to hate this remaster besides "oh it has a typo on one of the textures" or "oh you can do this with mods." Maybe you just don't like it because you feel a need to fit in?
>>12054841Immediately defaulting back to the pajeet buzzword spam because you don't have any real argument
>>12054846"The remaster looks like garbage""Proof? And DONT say you you looked at it, I need peer reviewed proof"
>>12054821Low tier bait. Don't spend your (You) in one place okay?
This board is actually just as bad as /v/ now, kek
>>12054858It always has been
>>12054863No, it wasn't.
>>12054785It was made with a shitty 3D game making tool. Unreal Engine.(I know, ironic, since DX was famous for popularizing Unreal Engine 1)
>>12053937>this isn't a game worth paying for.
>>12053201Those hands are nightmare fuel.
>>12055031His hands are augmented.
>>12052912guy looks like he's in his late thirties, early forties. Did people forget JC is a young bloke in his early 20s?
Deus Ex's dystopia seems more desirable than what we actually have irl. California disappearing from the map would be a blessing.
>>12054785>FPS CreatorThanks for unlocking this memory. FPS Creator and Gamemaker 6 were my shit back in the day.
>>12055168Cali is the only state in murica that resembles the first world. I can smell your inbred genetics from the screen.
>>12055168they just passed a law for UK style hate speech crack downs on social media. Place is cooked.
>>12052912>>12052914This shit...is so ASS :(
>>12055178Frog in a well post.
>>12053509I think it looks good, I mean like if it doesn't then Half Life 1 looks like shit.
>>12054597>is there nothing that will satisfy you?actually a proper remaster/remake that doesn't fuck up the entire aesthetic of the game and makes everything look like plastic would satisfy me. Even if you have to change the aesthetic at least don't make it look like ass. A great example of a remake/remaster that changes the game's aesthetic is the System Shock remake. This just looks like a half assed doom 3 mod.
>>12054774Looking closer at the original model I think he is supposed to be wearing a ceramic breastplate or something over his shirt if that is what you mean.
>>12054597personally i'd be satisfied if old games were left completely alone aside from patches that make them playable on modern hardware, and if legitimately good new games were produced instead of focus group tested liberal propaganda slot machine simulators.
>>12055871>Even if you have to change the aesthetic at least don't make it look like ass. This. Like shit, I said it on /vrpg/ but if you made it all look like Human Revolution but with blue instead of orange, at least its a style, it feels coherent in the world and not just a mishmash of assets.
>>12052910They somehow made a 25 year old game look worse. Not even complaining about modern graphical aesthetics, it looks like they tried to remake Deus Ex using the same computers from 1999 and failed miserably.
>>12052912IT LOOKS LIKE JC IF HE WAS 30 LBS OVERWEIGHT AND MADE OF FUCKING PLAY-DOH
>>12056052Yes, to look relatable to the average modern gamer.
I'm almost done with Half-Life. Is Deus Ex similar in gameplay?
>>12054335>I was just as disgusted by RE2's demake.lmao,RE2 remake isnt perfect but sorry to tell you its far superior to the original and i bet last time you played the original was when you were 10yo.
>>12056120I literally replayed RE2 after the atrocious demake demo just to make sure I wasn't insane, the game was still great. I then played demake shortly after it, and I was amazed by how they fucked up the entire game. From the art direction to the ghoulish characters, the crap music and tedious level redesigns, I could not find a single element of the demake that improved on the original in even the smallest way. I'm sorry you're a child with an IQ too low for tank controls.
>>12056116No.
>>12052910>>12052912>>12052914What the fuck is this TF2 looking bullshit?
>>12056116Deus Ex is more about roleplaying, but once the meta game clicks with you it's very good. I mean, the lockpicking itself is boring, but it's what you're breaking into and why that's the fun part.
>>12056127>sorry you're a child with an IQ too low for tank controls.i unlocked everything in OG re2 and finished 4th survivor and level 1 and 2 of extreme battle.yes the music sucks in the remake (which can be fix if you pay 5$) but the gameplay is better,it now actually feels like survival horror where you can run out of ammo and the level design is miles better. are you gonna tell me the sewers were better in the original ? what about the puzzles,sure they arent mind blowing in the remake but the OG barely had any.are the copy/paste dogshit ada/sherry segment with braindead box pushing "puzzle" better in the original than what we got in the remake ?you might have the sufficient IQ to understand tank control but not to think critically beyond old good/new bad.
>>12053086They hired that man. This is Deus Ex in 2025
>>12056219>are you gonna tell me the sewers were better in the original ?Yes. They cut the moth boss and the spiders. Is there even anything that can poison you in the demake?>what about the puzzlesLegitimately, there was nothing in the demake I would even qualify as a puzzle. You think finding an item and putting it somewhere else counts as a puzzle? You must really struggle with unlocking your car in the morning.>are the copy/paste dogshit ada/sherry segment with braindead box pushing "puzzle" better in the original than what we got in the remakeYes, the Sherry segment in the demake was tedious garbage. Please also ignore all the other fun changes like removing the zapping system entirely so there's no merit to leaving anything behind for your second playthrough, hell, there's no reason to even do A/B runs because barely anything changes now.
>>12056232ahahahaha,the moth is in the lab and isnt even a boss.what you say about the puzzles apply way more to OG than remake.just like i thought you were most likely filtered by the remake because it is actually challenging while the OG isnt.and for the leaving items behind it only applies to the machine gun and sidepack in the locker and while it is neat both items are superfluous since theres more than enough ammo for the rest to ever need the machine gun and the inventory is big enough and not enough key items ever needed at once.but sure thing buddy you are definitely high IQ.
>>12056232btw the ennemies in the sewer in the remake can poison you when they spit out smaller worms and the blue herb also gives a defense boost for a while with a red herb.
>>12056252>actually challengingI had a tougher time avoiding enemies during the intro of RE2 on normal than I did with the entirety of demake on professional (because you had to select the hardest difficulty to even use save points).Neither game is hard, but demake is insultingly easy.>>12056253Wow, 1 enemy capable of inflicting poison, compared with 3 in the original game.
>>12056120>>12056127RE2 and RE2 Remake are so totally different why even compare them? I love them both for different reasons. It's an actual 'remake' in that it was a new game that happens to share the same name. It doesn't try to 'replace' the original by aping it, or literally copy/paste the original format like a 'Remaster'.The best part is that if you hate the remake of RE2, the originals are fully playable on PC either via piracy or GOG. I only hate remakes when they do shit like delist the originals (See GTA), otherwise I simply ignore them when they're shit (which is 99% of the time)
>Catalog is RE spam every day>Enter unrelated thread>RE spam inside
>>12056116Deus Ex is like a combination of System Shock 2 and Half-Life.
>>12056316It's nothing like Half-Life except that it's a first person game in which you shoot (optionally) things. Let's not even get into the level design of both games being diametrically opposed in philosophy.System Shock 2 + Thief would be a more apt comparison
>>12056314Oh the fun has just begun
>>12056305>delistingWhat a braindead mindset. Nothing is stopping you pirating GTA either, moron.I hate the demake because it means I have to add "original" to every conversation, and basic internet searches are now no longer possible because the demake has replaced the original. I can't just say "RE2", because in the minds of children like you, they instantly picture the new version.I also hate Prey (2017), because now I can't talk about Prey anymore without kids thinking I'm talking about an intensely mediocre imsim. I would dislike the game if it was called something else, being a soulless attempt to erase the original product makes me hate it, just the same as the demakes.
>>12054785> FPS CreatorIt is made in something called FMOD game system which I can only assume is the same kind of thing
>>12056314Tis the season, nigga
>>12056317The guy who directed the game presented the gameplay as a blend of Thief, Baldur's Gate, and Half-Life, meaning you had the option to sneak, talk, or shoot in any given situation as you saw fit. This was mostly a result of combat being basically worthless Thief. Not so sure how well the talking part worked out though, the only instance of this I can remember is talking to the Navy guy at the bar so that his friends at the Shipyard let you in.
>>12052914oh shit they're finally porting deus ex to the og xbox?
>>12053086Couldn't even make him look like the same guy.
>>12056619I'm suddenly reminded of how the devs of the original Hitman designated it as a "thinking shooter". It must be really jarring as a developer to see how players actually interact with your game compared to what you've imagined it to be like.
>>12056619Do you think the combat is better in Thief than in Deus Ex? Are you insane?
>>12056192reminds me more of TFC with an "hd texture pack" and ray-tracing
>>12052912
>>12053509>--the number of people responding to a gpt post is pathetic
>>12057098It's pathetic that a dev needed to use gpt to defend this slop.
>>12056205>the lockpicking itself is boringI actually prefer this to some dumb mini-game.
>>12056619Talking is worth a lot in Deus Ex actually, but yeah, it's your choice, many things can be obtained in multiple ways in this game.>>12056848 I think he meant >combat being basically worthless IN Thiefbut he messed it up somehow.

>>12054821>oh you can do this with modsHow isn't this a coherent reason for one? Why would you pay over twenty dollars for a rerelease that superimposes clashing assets? The only real purpose for rereleases is updated compatibility and Revision already does that and you can play the vanilla game with it.
well the original is on sale for a dollar on Steam, buy it now if you don't have it, because it probably won't go on sale again just like the original versions of the Tomb Raider games.
