RightHandOfIkaros, do gaming w Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Remake Is Dead - Insider Gaming

Disappointing, but considering the initial people revealed to be working on the game, it would have been 100% butchered.

We’ve won, but at what cost?

At the cost of making people write their own successful stories, rather then riding on the popularity of an old franchise to sell it's brand.

Don't get me wrong, I would have absolutely played a KoToR with BG3 graphics.

But I would also settle for a new star wars story with BG3 graphics.

The original holds up anyway, and I firmly believe they were gonna butcher it, so… is this a win?

Is the original worth a play? Amazon prime gaming has it for free this week. I just redeemed it.

Yeah, although you should install the unofficial patch and widescreen mod (if needed).

Other than that, it’s still a very fun game and I do recommend it :)

Nice! Thanks for the heads up.

Nice, this all but guarantees a PC release, which is great, I enjoyed my time with TLOU2 but it was so marred by the experience on console

At this point I feel like Todd Howard moonlights at Naughty Dog.

Lol my thoughts exactly. Last of us is the new Skyrim.

Katana314,

We here at Naughty Dog respect that, though they are great games, our fans have felt some exhaustion at seeing only remasters of Naughty Dog’s old games. Hence, we are proud to announce our newest project: Skyrim Remastered.

For me it’s the greatest game ever (or maybe one of them), but I ain’t gonna buy it again.

It already looks and feels so amazing.

I don’t mind older games getting love on new platforms. But… This is already a late PS4 game with a PS5 enhancement.

Maybe it’s something as simple as just a physical PS5-only version? I have not seen any “Greatest Hits” reprints of PS5 games yet. Usually they start doing that ~2 years after a console release, so it’s past due for the PS5. So my speculation would be that they are going to announce that at the game awards, and it’s going to include some PS5 reprints of other PS4 games with PS5 enhancement. Maybe Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War (2018), etc.

If this inolvrs putting in serious dev work to remake a 3 year old game, I’d have to question whether those resources would have been better spent elsewhere. Heck, even another, older, Naughty Dog game. The Crash N Sane and Spyro Reignited trilogies were pretty successful endeavors from Activision, and Sony has Bluepoiny just for doing that kind of stuff. Where are the Jak and Daxter remakes? Ratchet and Clank 1 was kind-of remade-ish to go along with the movie release back in 2016, but where are the rest of the R&C re-makes? They did Shadow of the Colossus: where is ICO?

    @iturnedintoanewt @paultimate14 the first one was a ps3 game the second one was a ps4 game and it wasn't so long ago, is this a relaunch? It better not be a full price game not even a remaster would make much difference, this generation's graphics haven't changed much it's just light

    paultimate14,

    That’s why I’m thinking a Greatest Hits reprints makes sense. Those were usually priced lower.

    And yeah I was only referring to Part 2 because that’s what the article is about. Part 1 just got a remake in 2022.

    Zahille7, (edited )

    I don’t have a PS5, but I’d seriously consider it (even moreso after Spider-Man 2) if they made a Jak & Daxter and Sly Cooper Remastered collections.

    I know there was the PS3 Sly Cooper game(s), but still.

    rambaroo, do games w The Last of Us Part 2 is Coming to PlayStation 5 - Insider Gaming

    Wtf is this? The game was already patched and enhanced for PS5.

    RolyRamen, do games w The Last of Us Part 2 is Coming to PlayStation 5 - Insider Gaming

    Not sure I get what a PS5 version would bring without some pretty serious tech upgrades such as Ray Tracing. There’s already a ps5 patch that enables 60 fps which is normally my personal “requirement” for new versions on cross gen games so unless this is a major uplift then I’ll pass.

    Well of course, just look at Modern Warfare 3 and they’re $70 DLC that people actually paid for.

    O_i, do games w The Last of Us Part 2 is Coming to PlayStation 5 - Insider Gaming

    Is it not available? I read playing it on ps5 auto updates to ps5 version

    azn03,

    I think this is talking about a remastered version. I have the game just haven’t had the time to play it.

    Kusimulkku,

    Remastering it already lol

    O_i,

    Yeah word is it’s a remastered and you can upgrade for extra stuff too

    echo64, do games w The Last of Us Part 2 is Coming to PlayStation 5 - Insider Gaming

    saving my second playthrough for ps5 is finally working out! unless it’s a full priced release with no upgrade, which is what i’m actually expecting

    MissGutsy, do games w New Sony Patent Will Let You Replay A Game From Any Point Possible

    … sooooo … chapters?

    helloharu,
    @helloharu@lemmy.world avatar

    I think this is more granular than that. More like; pages, paragraphs, or even sentences than chapters.

    MissGutsy,

    Sounds cool and all but I heavily doubt they would do the work to implement it like that. Replay value doesn’t add market value in the view of the producers. So there is not much money to be made from the large amount of work this requires.

    Of course if they ever do it, feel free to correct me, people from the future

    helloharu,
    @helloharu@lemmy.world avatar

    The patent shows that the save states stream through an API, it’s likely this isn’t for local save but for people streaming games. It will open streaming possibilities like letting audiences pick up exactly where the person they’re watching is, or other audient interactions like “beat this section quicker than I did.”

    MissGutsy,

    In that case there is little difference to just sharing a save file, which everybody can already do. If this is everything that the patent covers, then I’m against them having a patent for it. That idea is so generic and nothing somebody should be allowed to have control over

    helloharu,
    @helloharu@lemmy.world avatar

    I don’t disagree as iirc the Stadia had a “Share State” feature that isn’t a far cry from this - though that didn’t rely on trigger points.

    Another software patent that no one should respect because it does something that was done 30 years ago.
