Enhancements, you say...

[–] mrcleanup@lemmy.world 22 points 9 months ago (2 children)

Man, I can still hear the rattle of the teacup.

[–] sizzler@lemmy.world 6 points 9 months ago (1 children)

I can hear the creak of the metal on the boat.

[–] Hadriscus@lemm.ee 3 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Holy shit I just heard it. You mean the Maria Doria in TRII ? grrrrrooouiiinnnggngkkk

[–] sizzler@lemmy.world 3 points 9 months ago

I've heard it irl. Next to a large water pumping station. It is the occasional grind of a stone against the propeller I think.

Pffft

[–] burrito@sh.itjust.works 22 points 9 months ago

I hope the Nude Raider mod gets updated too.

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 13 points 9 months ago (1 children)

If it goes well, can we expect a remaster of Legacy of Kain/Soul Reaver series? They're also owned by Crystal Dynamics and I recall them sending me a questionnaire asking about a possible revival

[–] PreviouslyAmused@lemmy.ml 10 points 9 months ago

Don’t…. don’t give me hope

[–] Mojojojo1993@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Very much looking forward to this. Pissed I have to buy it for a third time. Bought original for PC many moons ago. Then the same version on steam. Then the remastered version on steam. And will again be buying the re re re mastered version on steam.

Can you elaborate on why the Wii to Switch version is your favorite? I played it on 360 back in the day and have it on Steam. I'm curious what the differences are.

[–] Marsupial@quokk.au 1 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Aren’t Aspyr garbage?

Last I remember is their janky arse port of Jade Empire and a unlaunchable KotoR.

[–] 520@kbin.social 3 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

No, they aren't garbage.

Can't speak for their Jade Empire port but their KOTOR port is actually pretty good. Might be something wrong with your handset.

Their general output is pretty good.

[–] trustnoone@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 9 months ago

Don't know why you're being negged. They're "okay" and I do understand why some are negative about them. Overall they've done okay with re-bringing back out old games.

But you're right there's been some issues with jank, and some anger due to how they dealt with KOTOR 2 DLC and purchases.

The kotor2 remake has also been removed from aspyr.

IMO I'd say wait and see, let the reviews come up, and see if it fits for you.

I'm glad they were looking at Anniversary and Legends instead of the reboot by square enix for the modern version of controls, loved those games on PS2.

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Feels kind of weird to have a remaster coming long after a total remake. Granted, I don't think they remade 2-3, just the first one - and it was for the sake of their small trilogy referencing events from the first game. (I think it went, Legend, then Anniversary (Remake), then Underworld, right?)

[–] lloram239@feddit.de 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago)

The original games are so old that it is quite messy to get them to run on PC these days and the remake changed the gameplay quite substantially. So this remaster is quite welcome and probably a lot cheaper to produce than a full 2 and 3 remake.

As for Anniversary, the story there is a bit weird, as Anniversary and Legend are basically completely independent games that have nothing much to do with each other other than the engine. Legend is a reboot and Anniversary is a remake. It's only with Underworld that the the story of those two get wrangled together into a trilogy. Only the first game is taken into account there, all the other sequels of the original game are ignored.

Seems nice, as long as they don't try to sell it for 80$ or more.

[–] ratofkryll@sh.itjust.works 5 points 9 months ago (1 children)

It's $26.99 USD on Steam.

[–] ekZepp@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Not horrible. I'll wait some sale.

[–] helloharu@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Nice to see some more info on the changes. I’m looking forward to getting my hands on this.
