Eggyhead, do gaming w Star Wars: Dark Forces Remastered – Official Announcement Trailer
@Eggyhead@kbin.social avatar

Okay, so every time I decide I'm going to play a retro game through emulation, a remaster is announced, giving me access and an opportunity to enjoy a better version of the game instead. It happened with Metroid Prime, Link's Awakening, Baten Kaitos, Trails from Zero/to Azure, FF pixel remasters, KOTOR, Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance, and now this I guess... So for the sake of everyone else, what retro games are worth adding to my list?

Look I'm just saying if you have the ability to conjure into our reality remasters and remakes of old games, I'm going to suck your fucking dick if we can get an Illusion of Gaia (snes) remaster sometime soon.

Or ya know whatever the bits may be.

I hope I’m proven wrong, but I’m not sure this is the best title to receive the Nightdive treatment.

Apart for the dated visual, gameplay and overall game mechanics wise the game is very awkward by 2023 standards.

I'd rather them do this one really well than have them do the both of them at the same time. I love Dark Forces 2, it's the Star Wars game I grew up with. I haven't looked but I'm assuming Disney has some involvement due to the ownership and honestly, it makes sense they want to give it a shot at remastering these titles since canon tied in the Dark Troopers, both white and black versions from what I can tell.

Mostly what I'm excited for? Dark Forces 2 multiplayer... oh man, those were the days.

Would successfully decompiling this game make the process any faster for the sequel, or is it just a manual labor thing?

Now we can learn the secrets of Stop n Swop

ftothe3, do gaming w Banjo Kazooie just got Decompiled! by Kaze Emanuar (YouTube)

Can anyone explain how people do this?

thingsiplay,

It’s reverse engineering: www.retroreversing.com/N64Reversing

ftothe3,

Thanks for that link!

foldor,

It’s worth noting that the link he provided is a decent overview, but it’s also really outdated as far as the decompilation community goes. If you’re at all interested in getting involved, and not just mildly curious about the high level stuff, most people start with one of two discords. One for decomp.me and the is the N64 decompilation discord.

Damn that timing! I just posted the same thing (article though). I’ll delete mine though.

Regarding the news though this is awesome!

thingsiplay,

Oh lol. What happened there? We posted at the same time?

chloyster,

Yeah we posted a similar story at basically the exact same time

thingsiplay,

I feel like you could repost it again. I don’t think its against the rules, as it is a different source and written article versus video report.

Many of us would prefer the article to the video.

chloyster,

Fair enough! It’s back up :)

Your decision to italicize that gave me chills

The turn-based with real-time elements reminds me of Sea of Stars and Shadow Hearts, which are both excellent titles in my mind for this game to associate itself with. Looks really flashy too with the menu, camera movement, and slowdown effects (hopefully that wouldn’t get old with too much repetition).

Today I learned that it’s an indigenous Māori word, and as such we should probably be respectful and stick with how they pronounce it.

mtlvmpr,

Weirdly enough that’s how I’ve always pronounced it because of the amazing language: rallienglanti (it’s English read out loud in Finnish way)

hemko,

Lmao yeah same thing, pronouncing like ‘mana’ would be in Finnish word.

Thank you

t3rmit3,

And here I thought it was derived and bastardized from “manna” the bread. TIL

SweetCitrusBuzz,
@SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org avatar

Yeah, I was pleasantly surprised. I love learning things about indigenous cultures.

AbelianGrape,

Which, to be fair, is also derived from a word which would be most accurately (with English vowels) pronounced as mah-nuh. Although at this point “manna” is definitively also a word of English whose correct pronunciation is with /æ/.

Man-uh vs maw-nuh … I’ll stick with the first one
