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.

I hope this means they are working on a sequel? Otherwise I dont know why they went through all this effort.

Also if all of the official characters are getting a graphic upgrade, and theres a new official character, its pretty bullshit we dont get this on Xbox. I get we don’t have Steam workshop but theres a lot of other content here.

It looks like it’s just the ability to play as literally anything. No new content or anything.

I wouldn’t mind Castle Crashers 2

HiddenLychee,

That’s new enough for me, considering I’ve probably forgot most of the content since I played this what, ten years ago? More? God damn I was a kid when this came out and now I’m nearly 30

33 GiB! That’s bigger than Fallout 4, itself. So, of course, I’m gonna download it.

I just received an email from GOG saying the mod is available for free there (you still need to own the FO4 base game). The “catch” to download from them is that you have to subscribe to their email advertising.

Don’t need to subscribe to anything, just need a GOG account. The mod is hosted on GOG because Nexus denied them due to size.

Cobrachicken,

you apparently already subscribed to their email advertising

digdilem,

And then unsubscribe or block as soon as you’ve got it.

They’re hosting this 33Gb download for free - I don’t begrudge them trying to advertise a bit.

GOG page is active.

If you’re unaware of the recent history of this project, the big Fallout 4 update that came out a few months ago broke this project. GOG worked with them to build an installer that would downgrade Fallout 4 to the required version to run this (hence the GOG logo at the start). Good guy GOG to the rescue.

Cobrachicken,

Plus, they needed a place to host that big a mod with connections to Bethesda to prevent a probable takedown order…

MeatsOfRage,

Any reason to think this would be a probable takedown? Mods on Bethesda games have historically been a thriving community unless they directly infringe on another company’s copyright.

Cobrachicken, (edited )

It was mentioned in one of their previous interviews as reason to parner with gog. I’ve unfortunately not bookmarked it, though, and I’m too lazy to search for it, sry.

edit: found it: “At the very least, GOG is sure that its support for Fallout: London won’t upset Bethesda,“They’re also our partners so we wouldn’t want to do anything to harm our relationship.””

in https://www.thegamer.com/fallout-london-gog-release-delay-fallout-4-update-interview/

Renacles,

That says that GOG is sure that Bethesda won’t have a problem with the mod, not that they will do anything to prevent it.

It’s literally the opposite.

we_avoid_temptation,

The more relevant section is here

“It’s not uncommon for larger game companies like Bethesda to have mixed reactions to fan-made projects of this scale, we saw this with things such as Fallout: The Frontier,” says Carter, referencing the game-sized mod for Fallout: New Vegas that launched in 2021. “They often tolerate projects’ like ours’ existence as long as they don’t infringe on their intellectual property or negatively impact their brand.”

That said, I agree with you. The Frontier had issues because they put problematic shit in their mod. Bethesda has explicitly given shoutouts to Sim Settlements (I’m pretty sure there’s others) in the recent past.

It’s a shame the writers and directors of The Frontier were so shit. The programmers did stellar job within the confines of that crappy engine and I’m still salty Xilandros fantastic vehicle implementation isn’t made available as a standalone (officially).

Happy they ditched Electron. Shapez 1 ran terribly on my PC. Too bad they went with Unity instead though.

Now that’s a sequel! It reminds me of how Risk of Rain 2 is to Risk of Rain.

Sweet! Shapez is a great take on factory games.

Looking good. And I’ll bet Aether Studios doesn’t sue their fans for competing in the competitive game they built.
