Bash.org used to have a “worst of” section, for the lowest-voted quotes. It was mostly racist garbage. At some point the worst went something like, ‘that’s where black people belong: back of the bus, bottom of Bash.’
They nuked that shit shortly after, because why the fuck would you want that on your server?
They’re remastering the graphics (at least somewhat, doesn’t look super amazing), and they’re leaving a toggle that lets you swap back to the glorious triangle boob graphics at the flip or a switch.
Oh lord what a bunch of cringe. Who fucking cares? About any of this? There’s so much awful shit in the world and so many people spending their time worrying about the absolute nothing issues of the world.
I dont know who is the most pathetic group here, if nexus mods for taking down a dumb harmless mod for ridiculous reasons or the moders that made a mod that takes out a dumb harmeles feature for ridiculous reasons. Nexus mods sucks either way and the mod devs suck too.
Can we just… not get remasters and remakes anymore? I’d rather just have the OG games re-released digitally as-is, and let AAA companies explore new IPs or allow them to be creative in the universe of already-existing IPs.
AAA companies aren’t making these remasters, they are typically handled by small studios that specialize in exactly this kind of work.
Most of the work of re-releasing these old games is porting the old code to new platforms. Making them run at higher resolutions and frame rates is usually not all that much effort in comparison, so you might as well do it.
Frankly it’s kind of weird to complain about the existence of a product nobody is forcing you to buy.
Exactly, this game I believe is being done by Aspyr. While KOTOR was a remake obviously, it was the last time they tried to do a big game and it apparently was a disaster.
Makes sense, some of their port jobs on switch I would consider as disasters. If they really remade KOTOR and completely boned it I'd hate them even more than I already do. That sounds a little harsh, some of their ports are passable.
People don’t buy games as-is. They need at least some modern conveniences to be palettable. And frankly this is about as close to what you are asking as is reasonable.

I'd like to have HD versions of a number of older 2D games that I enjoy re-released.
Honestly, I'd like to have HD versions of some newer games that were originally done with low-resolution graphics, like Binding of Isaac and Caves of Qud. Nothing wrong with low-resolution graphics -- I think that it enables shifting resources to developing gameplay, and that that's often a good tradeoff -- but those games did well, and I'd be willing to pay for flashier graphics.
If you look at Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead, it's gone from ASCII to graphics to significantly-prettier tilesets. Dwarf Fortress did something similar. I think that that shows that there's demand for it.
I appreciate that not everyone wants that, but I would.
