It's still getting backlogged on my end. I have no interest in holding R1 for another 7 hours currently.

I saw part of a walkthrough that said something about "modern controls", so maybe that might change the experience a bit

whoa is this game not out yet? Ive been watching jacksepticeye play it. it looks amazing. they've kept the mood and atmosphere of the original game intact perfectly while giving it legitimate PS4 graphics (ok, maybe late PS3 graphics, it looks great regardless). The controls have been revamped but you can choose the original scheme if you prefer it. The faces and voices are a bit weird, but that is it. everything else is perfect.

I've only played a few hours of it. So its a whole new game for me basically. That and Demon's Souls I havent messed with.

they way the game builds up is great, but after reaching a certain point, it changes something up that I feel slows down the momentum

it's still a really good game, though.

An SotC remake? What needed updating? The game's pretty much perfect and the last graphical update is from last generation.

So I've heard... oh well! I'm also really looking forward to the PvP. Most of my Souls friends go on and on about it being the most technical of them all.

It's completely built from the ground up, as opposed to just upping the resolution and texture quality.

I feel like they updated it to look top of teh line graphidelphiacally without consideration for the aesthetic design of the original that all the fans love.

I feel the same about the Crash Bandicoot remakes.

I don't see what's wrong with the aesthetic design of the remake, tbh; the game's graphics and art direction are beautiful, IMO

I don't see the issue, when the remake is as good (if not better) than the original

So is it a remake or a remaster

They've been very vague about it

If it's the latter then I'll just wait

There are times when a game is held back due to the existing technology which it was made with. As long as the core elements of gameplay and plot remain the same, and the hindrance of dated hardware is addressed with new technology, people will continually buy classic games they remember fondly that are updated.

I'd buy a ps4 MGS remake as long as the plot and voicing was left untouched, with modern gameplay elements, graphics, and AI, in a heartbeat.

You know, I felt the same was before I played TTS but when I actually played it, I actually found disappointment both with how much and changed AND with how little had changed. It was weird and I just kinda guessed I really didn't want an update at all, lol.

even the PS3 version doesn't run 60fps at 1080p.

I adored this game but I have no desire to revisit it.

As far as I know this remake/remaster is similar to the 3DS Zelda ones. A complete graphical overhaul with the same gameplay (maybe some minor QOL improvements).

To me that's still a remaster. But the best possible remaster. In my mind a remake is more extreme in changing things up.

That's pretty rad. Is Bluepoint going to release an original IP anytime soon? Love their work with the remasters/remakes but I really want to see something original from them.
