What is your opinion on remasters?

>>714134124 (OP)
some games straight up dont need one

>>714134124 (OP)
Based as fuck and makes games accessible.

Black Mesa allowed me to get the HL1 experience without having to play some billion year old game.

Resident Evil 2 remake is amazing

I was just never going to play oblivion because of the shitty graphics but now I can with the remake.

was demons souls the only souls game that gave an actual item on your character that lights them up?

>>714134445
okay but those are remakes not remasters

>>714134124 (OP)
How are there still no mods that make remaster look like PTDE?

>>714134559
Is there a difference? Genuinely asking

>>714134485
The Augite of Souls? Yeah, but I think you still get that lighting effect in other souls games even without it

>>714134124 (OP)
Depends if Indians make them.
Indians don’t have soul.

Also, who cares about shiny graphics?

>>714134567
Because while you can restore the original textures and shaders, changing the lighting engine isn't trivial.

>>714134485
elden ring has one too, and dark souls 1 has a light up helmet

>>714134596
remaster makes it look nicer
remake redo's the game

>>714134445
>filtered by a game from 1998 that plays pretty much like a modern game
lol

>>714134485
Yes. Every other game you just inexplicably glow, as if you still had the little thingy you did in DeS. Not sure why they didn't keep that little detail. Maybe it was a pain to make it work with the fashion.

>>714134814
Oooh then I don't think I've ever found a remaster valuable.

>>714134893
Whatever boomer, cling to your objectively inferior experience lol

>>714134984
Black Mesa has no soul.

>>714134485
it's estus
>b-but you have it befor-
stfu

If a remaster or remake keeps the spirit of the original intact, or even has classic mode options so people can still enjoy the game(s) like how it used to be, then hey. But when you get stuff like Crash and Spyro, Demons' Souls and Shadow of the Colossus, where drastic reinterpretations occur that strip out much of the old art and intent, it gets really fucky. You can sell me all the quality of life in the world and I'd still regularly prefer the old versions unless you straight up just 1:1 the old game "as you remembered it" right, like Croc or the Quake remasters.

>>714134901
id have to imagine its because they wanted the darkness to play a part in the game
i dont think it exists in 2 since torches are supposed to play?

>>714135072
>Muh soul
What you call soul is just nostalgia, embrace the world, reject trlhe sedation

>If a remaster or remake keeps the spirit of the original intact
stopped reading there, no such thing

>>714135690
Accept modernity and reject tradition huh? Sounds Jewish as fuck.

>>714136393
Your tradition was modern when you experienced it, you build your own tomb
