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.

LW is hosted in Germany, and as it proxies youtube thumbnails, youtube serve him the german version 😅. It is a known issue.

Ah ok then, thank you.

The video is only 23 minutes and 46 seconds for anyone wondering. Kinda sad it’s not longer, which is an interesting thought considering the premise.

Crap, thank you! What a typo. I fixed it, but also did not try to hide my shame

Do you mean 24 minutes instead of hours?

I don’t have a whole day to spare 🙂

Rozz,

I didn’t think I was going to be able to carve out a whole day to watch a YouTube video.

Then in the words of Randy Pitchford: It sounds like you aren’t a true fan!

Yes, I meant 24 minutes, thanks for the catch

PirateSoftware used to pop up in my feed all the time, and I’d roll my eyes every time he whiteboarded the most basic dev concepts like they were groundbreaking insights. The tech industry is full of these self-proclaimed gurus who oversell fundamentals and act like they’re reinventing the wheel. I’m glad people are finally catching on to him.

jagermo,

Right? I always think “oh, that’s some basic shit, why be such a hype man?” Blocking him from now on.

This is in answer to the Stop Killing Games Initiative. He falsely claims that if SKG were successful every game would be forced to do all that stuff. While not realising that what he is describing is continued support for a game, not a dead game that continues to work without support.

It’s just a strawman, incorrectly inflating the costs by claiming continued support is the same as no support.

ImplyingImplications, (edited ) do gaming w So you want to make your game accessible after your company fails

Interesting video. For people who can’t tell from the title alone, this is Chet Faliszek, who worked for Valve on titles like Left 4 Dead, talking about making the game Anacrusis playable after his company shuts down. The game was meant to be a spiritual successor to Left 4 Dead, but was dead on arrival with player counts at all time lows after leaving early access.

I knew game companies license stuff but had no idea just how much content in a game can be licensed. In-game voice chat, art assets, music, and matchmaking all done by third-parties under licensed agreements that were really difficult to work around.

If his company stops paying their subscriptions, then the in-game voice chat and matchmaking stops working. The art assets and music he licensed can only be used in very specific ways and prevent handing over raw files.

It seems like he was able to get past most things by having Steam host everything as well as handle the matchmaking. His company can go out of business but players can still play through Steam (with some stuff removed like the in-game voice chat). Of course if Steam shuts down then the game truly does stop working.

The only way around these issue were if he never licensed anything and did absolutely everything in-house, which would be a huge burden. He just wants to make a game, not worry about load balancing matchmaking servers. That’s why he got another company to handle that part. Making development easier seems to also make end-of-life accessibility harder.

Someone watched Mortal Engines one time too many. But seriously, this looks cool

There needs to just be a Mortal Engines game at this point. Like honestly it would translate pretty well to some form RTS type game, what with the whole geopolitical nonsense that’s present throughout the books.

occasionalkali, do musiczka w CLASS WAR DECLARATION MIX FROM THE MUSEUM STORAGE ROOM

Just saw an interesting exhibit about societal shifts! It reminded me of the pressure cooker atmosphere in Papa's Pizzeria when the lunch rush hits – total chaos! It's a daily class war between hungry customers and my frantic attempts to fulfill their orders. Anyone else ever feel like managing Papa's Pizzeria is actually training for something bigger, like global domination? The struggle is real, folks.
