Gaming has gotten so bad they can't even remaster 20 year old games anymore

[JayJ350]

When your brand new remaster is worse than the 20 year old versions you supposedly remastered. I think it's safe to say most of the talent has left this industry.

[AnklesBruised]

Starcraft and Diablo II remastered are amazing

[eod8989]

We are literally in an era of gaming where the good games get called chit and the rest of the games are chit so the entire industry has gone to chit

What a time to be alive

[freeburn]

If only there was an entire subsection on the misc for these types of threads...

Oh wait there is.

He has everyone on ignore lmao there's no one to talk to there

[ClivesTriceps]

Maybe just be thankful they made good games fully operable on modern hardware/software without needing to download some kind of patch or hotfix from a mod community? Not acceptable for a re-release, but I'm sure they'll fix it.

The remake of D2 was amazing, especially with the QoL fixes from the original.

The remaster of Star Ocean: Second Story is also a masterpiece, and I don't need to dig up my old PS1 to play it anymore. It's on Steam forever.

Then they wonder why everyone is into retro gaming.

Lol @ saying people should be thankful for this chit. Talk about no standards.

As I said in my edit, the way it was released with those bugs is unacceptable. Hopefully they'll fix them ASAP.

I just don't get how people are buying these games. Soulless, generic and full of bugs. I just can't wrap my head around it. None of the old games have issues.

Seems evident how a great deal of the gamers on the internet must be total suckers. People get suckered into buying chit due to all the hype.

[Archangel_Lost]

Reminds me of the mass effect legendary edition where all the did was remove all good shots of Miranda’s ass, completely removed a dlc, and added a texture pack worse than the ones that came out when the games first came out on pc.

People praised that as well. Such standards.

[RainingBlood]

Alternative: Gamers are desperate and fall for the same tricks over and over, providing no incentive for companies to change.

brb pre order game
brb game flops upon launch
brb outrage
brb repeat 10000 times since 2009

They pre order all the games though chitty or not. Gaming now is all about consooming and streaming it for views now srs.

[gesten]

Any he’ll let loose gamers here?

Yeah the streamer/influencer culture really ruined everything along with the sorry state of video games journalism. Whole hobby has been overrun with the worst people.

[forthenoodz]

because retards still eat it up like nothing

[SaviorSelfJT]

All they need to do is bring back SOCOM and we’re good but they won’t even do that

[JayJ350]

Lol @ expecting Sony to do anything good ever again. They are all about Marvel games and 2deep4u trans sex stories.

[anonkunbrah]

how long before it's pay by the hour

Oh wait there is.

Imagine firing up a game machine after a day on the misc frauding about your dads car collection

Some people actually want to impliment that, srs.

[Shortfuze]

I just saw the brand new Contra remaster of the original. It looks pretty good.

Don't forget milking last of us 1 n 2 several times twice each gen since ps3.

[elterrible987]

gaming industry went overboard with it becoming overly profit focused. yeah of course the entire point of game companies was always to make money but its also an artistic endeavor and that side has been abandoned for profits. only projects that can make them the most money get pushed, this last gen has been trash, everything on ps5 is really just a a ps4 game with higher resolution, its not even using the system to its potential.

the companies are making some bad mistakes too. Its absurd that psvr2 wasnt backwards compatible when the rest of the console is, they had a decent following on last gen and now that is abandoned and no new VR games are really out, that was a dumb mistake on their part.

ps5 pro is coming out and i could give a fuk, who cares. If this was ps3 era and a pro was coming out I would be super hyped but these days? meh

[HarryDick]

The problem with gaming these days is that graphics advanced exponentially, unfortunately gameplay and storytelling didn't quite advance at the same rate.

That's why developers keep digging up old games. They're running out of ideas.

That loser is still trying to chase me around the misc with his bullchit? Dude needs to get a life lol, but I think we all know that is never going to happen. The misc IS his life. It's srs business lol.

Funniest thing is I don't even remember what I did to piss him off so much, but clearly he is still obsessed with whatever that might be. Must think about it all the time. I know I made him look like a retard in numerous threads so there is that.

[JayJ350]

Yup lol, I remember when Playstation was coming out with lots of cool games and cool people were a part of it. That was a very long time ago.

Yeah it's a lot like the movie industry these days. Massive bloated budget projects under massive longstanding IP's funded by massive corporations pushing all the typical bullchit you see in the media today.

[J3remy]

I like to play games, not watch soulless interactive movies


Games installed at the moment are CS2, Factorio and a heavily modded Silent Hunter 3. RTX4080 going to waste
