Thread 725438926

I want to experience dead space for the first time, is the remake a genuine improvement and the way to go for new players? or is it a Re4make situation where the vibe and soul is stepped on?

>>725438926 (OP)
remake is fine

Remake is real gay

>>725438926 (OP)
Always play the original. Consult PCGaminWiki if you need.

>>725438926 (OP)
Original is superior in almost every way

>>725438926 (OP)
>Re4make situation where the vibe and soul is stepped on?
lol. if your nigger brain is going into this with that contrarian /v/aggot mentality then dont play anything. Step away and never participate in DS breads ever again

>>725438926 (OP)
Ignore the seething remake shills, it flopped for a reason. Play the original

>>725439229
mad

>>725439229
meh, I found the gameplay more exciting (outside the constant grab qtes) but the atmosphere and quirkiness of the og was almost completely lost, let's not be disingenuous faggots here

>>725438926 (OP)
Original 100%

>>725438926 (OP)
Play any version of the original.

>>725439013
lmfao, absolutely no reason to make him a nigger and remove tits other than jewish purposes. shouldn't give these people money out of principle

>>725439067
IIRC the game doesn't if you have a cpu with more than 8 physical cpu cores.

>>725438926 (OP)
So the remake is kind of like RE4R where it has a hidden dynamic difficulty that will adjust loot & ammo drops so you pretty much can't run out. The remake also adds side quests, back tracking, & lore that comes with that. The OG however, is much less merciful when it comes to ammo. It's more like Ranger Hardcore in the Metro games or Professional diff RE2R where you need to make every bullet count & that adds yet another compounding source of moment to moment tension.

Both games are action horror, but the OG leans slightly less towards action and the remake leans slightly more into it. You can ultimately just pick your preference. They're both good games.

>>725439812
Originals of both of these games had dynamic difficulty.

>>725438926 (OP)
It's good, chuds are just still assraped by the gender neutral bathroom debate

>>725438926 (OP)
Just play both nigga, these games aren't long at all

The dead space remake is probably the only one I can think of that flat out replaces the original. I can't think of a single reason to play the original instead.

>>725438926 (OP)
>is the remake a genuine improvement and the way to go for new players?
No to both.

>>725440028
Tripfaggot still mad about it being woke

Remakes are new games not "a version of" a game.

>>725438926 (OP)
Really the only thing that I remember the remake doing better was the changes to the weapons, like the new alt-fire modes were decent, that's about it. It's such a shame that the remake turned out the way it did, because Capcom, besides a few minor issues, did a fantastic job with the RE4 remake and honestly, I don't see why EA didn't just get Capcom to do it for them because even they know the DS remake sucked as they cancelled the DS2 remake.

Dead Space is probably gonna be dead / dormant for another 15 - 20 years.

if u play the remake just turn the music off
it makes it way more immersive

if you want to have a really funny/spooky experience, play the original with vsync off
it really fucks with the physics when the frame rate is like 300+
i saw a dead body bouncing around the room while rotating about every axis at like 300rpm
it was my first time playing i thought it was supposed to happen and it was some weird abstract horror

>>725439973
>I can't think of a single reason to play the original instead.
There's boatloads of reasons why you should opt for the original.
>Mercer and Hammond's characters are ruined due to the former staying way past when he should be and Hammond obsessing about a random Asian guy you knew for two seconds.
>Security doors to force you to backtrack and it locks basic blueprints you found naturally in the original behind them.
>Instead of you proceeding throughout the game you are constantly having to revisit older areas to gain access to new areas which involves fighting the encounters spawning in the same areas repeatedly and it feels disjointed how everything connects.
>Zero-g is the one from DS2 and DS3 but with worse controls somehow making it far more stupid to actually move around.
>Kinesis is the one from DS2 and DS3 but impalements can't even one-shot basic Slashers anymore making it pointless.
>The skin system makes combat so much worse because now you have to rip the skin to actually start dealing damage to a Necrmorph which means multiple shots wasted before you do anything.
>Guns in general feel weaker than the original with some guns like Force Gun being objectively worse in every way but others are mostly better like the Contact Beam.
>They added a bunch of new rooms to pad locations out or allow you to backtrack which includes making Aegis VII feel like ass with the new rooms when it's already so slow to go through it.
>Impossible difficulty was removed and turned into the Hardcore mode, Hard is the highest difficulty and it's basically Normal difficulty in the original, it's significantly easier than the original.
It's so easy I did Impossible on my first playthrough and cleared it.
>Red-Eye Necromorphs make NG+ so much worse because they have the health and damage of Advanced Brutes and spawn multiple copies including when backtracking.
>RIGs look worse across the board including the DLC suits.

>>725440064
Nope, don't even care.

>>725438926 (OP)
Play original.
Then remake.

it's pretty insane how different the consensus is here vs platforms like reddit and youtube. Seems like everyone elsewhere else is ready to discard the original completely in favor of this as if it is it's worthy replacement, but alas I learned not to trust normieniggers after I was absolutely lied to about the quality of the resident evil demakes

>>725438926 (OP)
Remake is fucked and has unavoidable traversal stutter. Pissed me off that much I refunded it.

Gameplay?
Yeah
Story?
Downgrade in a few aspects.

Play the remake for the sound and graphics, just remember that Nicole is a 20yr hottie in the OG and not some 50 year old hag.
I don't know what they did to the big tittied boss lady who you arrive with, but I assume they ruined her too. Also fag posters everywhere.

>>725438926 (OP)
I just played through the original and it was great, but I would definitely recommend the remake over it. The atmosphere is more intense and scarier, a lot of the weapons are vastly improved, and the characters and story are more interesting now that Isaac can talk. It's basically the exact same game with nothing but improvements added to it, minus the all-gender bathrooms and the game stuttering every time you go through a door.

>>725440406
The thing that turned me against it was all the terrible animations in all the gameplay previews they released.

>>725439873
I never said it didn't. I see it's worded a tad funnily, but if you re-read what I said I think you'll get it.

What my post was saying us that the AI director/dynamic difficulty in the remake is a lot more lenient and ammo generous like RE4R, and the OG is less forgiving on your wasted ammo. Looking back, I could've worded it more clearly, but I also think it still makes sense.

>>725441797
> OG is less forgiving on your wasted ammo
No it isn’t. If you run out of ammo, ammo starts dropping.

>>725438926 (OP)
I didn't play the remake, but what I can say is the original still holds up, graphically or otherwise. It's clunky but intentional, you're essentially walking in futuristic full plate steel armour.

Just play it, anon, and do as >>725439067 says.

>>725438926 (OP)
Just changes to gameplay, but it pretty much fucks up everything else. The only major draw is the mc, Isaac, talking in the remake. He was a silent protagonist in the original game. Meanwhile they messed up:

-The story
-Nicol is now ancient
-The look, sound and movement of necromorphs.
-A lot of minor details you'd normally overlook, but are neat.
-I believe they also messed up some areas and sound, but I'd have to replay it to remember, and the only reason I played the remake was due to a friend trying yo convince me to play it, so he lent me his copy.

>much worse enemy AI
>only one enemy model
>botched lighting
>redesigned (and ruined) face designs
>worse sounds and animations
The remake is a hastely and cheaply made cash grab.
But welp, that's most remakes after all. Tho normies don't mind of course, they won't even notice the differences with how low their standards are haha...

>>725438926 (OP)
No. It's a butchered version of the original made by pajeets. Don't listen to EA bootlickers.
>>725439229
Lmao. Remake troons are so fragile.

>>725439973
Yes, we know that you are a EA bootlicker who never liked Dead Space.

>>725440912
They didn't lie to you they genuinely aren't capable of telling the difference of the quality.
Like a hobbo drinking a box wine. If you give him a expensive one instead, what's the difference to him? None.

>>725438926 (OP)
Remake looks like shit. The original is the only horror game I had to actually take breaks between sessions because the tension was so tight.

>>725439067
thousand times this

>>725439229
Or he could simply play the original

>>725438926 (OP)
if you can try both I'd say try both. I feel the original has a better story and far better voice acting for characters. the remake has better gameplay and some really bitching graphics at times and I do like gunner wright coming back so isaac isn't just a mute. original -> remake is a good way to play if you can get both.

>>725438926 (OP)
Do you have a toaster PC?
Yes - play original
No - play remake

>>725443452
Demake has shit performance.

>>725439067
why's that? does the steam release require patches to be playable?

>>725443798
i can run it at 8k max settings.
You toaster owners should stick to playing the old shitty version

>>725443984
>old shitty
OK EA bootlicker.

>>725444708
>bootlicker
who type of retarded spastic uses this word?

>>725438926 (OP)
The only way to actually play a game is to play the original version. You can play Dead Space Remake but that means you've only played Dead Space Remake and not Dead Space.

>>725438926 (OP)
Either is fine on console. Remake on pc. Game is completely fucked on pc
