I’m glad it failed. The community was nice but the devs were pretty hostile towards linux. Also it was way too demanding on the specs for really bad graphics.
Time to pass laws, this shit keeps happening. If you sold a game over $x that completely ceases to be playable within X years, you should be forced to open-source your code.
Won’t bother guessing at what the best numbers should be, hardly matters as I’m sure lobbyists would defang the whole thing as much as possible.
Recently a gamer news magazine reported that they cannot reccomend the game to anyone due to bad performance and gamebreaking bugs. Just like the World launch which sparked protests over Capcoms 0 refund ever policy.
Listen, theyve got a history of producing shit, journalists are telling you its shit, and I’m giving you my own past experience of dealing with their shit.
If you’re skeptical of it in fact being shit then I didnt ask.
I’ll never pay $70 for a game. Still waiting on Dragons Dogma 2 to go on sale. Even if it’s the same with inflation, why would I pay that for an unpolished product that still nickel and dimes me?
Side-scrolling action games are not my cup of tea, but ngl that trailer looked awesome. The artwork is gorgeous and the T2 theme got me all nostalgic (even though I strongly prefer Terminator to Terminator 2; 2 is OK, I prefer the darker and horror-focused tone of the first one).
I’d say they offer two different sides of the franchise, like Alien vs Aliens, but both brilliant, and both scary/traumatic to the then young generation
I do prefer Alien to Aliens, but Aliens is an excellent film as well. They are close.
Over time I’ve started to enjoy T2 somewhat less and definitely began appreciating T1 more.
My biggest issue with T2 is that in retrospective it has more of a summer blockbuster feel to it. T1 also had a lot of action, but none of the teen angst stuff.
I’m excited for this game but hate the attitude Level-5 has with the Switch version despite it starting on Nintendo platforms. Price went up to fund the multiplat release and no physical release.
I think I’m going to play through the first one on 3DS again and wait for a price drop, but I’m looking forward to seeing how people like it!
The original version (or is it the first remake?) is still on Steam and runs great. I just finished it a few months ago.
Does redoing the graphics of a relatively modern-game make it worth $60? I’m interested in understanding the perspective of folks that are planning to buy.
Not everyone will have played it already. If I’m a new buyer and I see one version and another version that’s the same but looks better, then yeah I’m gonna buy the one that looks better.
That’s the original version of the game. It’s had enhanced ports but never a remake previously. From what we know, this is a full remake, with changes to gameplay, a new localization, and some additions for continuity. The game’s 20 years old. Hard to put that anywhere near modern.
Since it’s the first in a continuous series, it’s long seemed necessary to at least bring the game into full 3D for new players to come on board. For long-term Trails fans, the value of this remake (and the inevitable second one, at least) will probably depend on some of the details, especially the localizations for players that don’t read Japanese.
I mean Horizon zero dawn remaster does look better and supposedly fixes some other stuff like janky script flow, but I still wouldn’t. Maybe for newcomers to the series.
I haven’t played this but I would imagine it’s just as anime style as it looks, in which case why even. Unless there were major flaws that should have been fixed in an update rather than a remake, and/or loads of new content that should have just been a dlc, I can’t see much merit in a new version.
edit: the article mentions it being remade in 3d, so I guess the original wasn’t. It mentions voice acting too but I dont know if it already had that. That could make for enough of an overhaul I suppose.
edit 2: it was isometric 3d based on screen shots, new one looks fully modern 3d
I’ve never played the series but I am interested and planning on seeing if the new version is good / considered “definitive” by fans of the series. If it’s good I will likely play this rather than the original version.
