I was thinking the same thing. They just put out the remake a few years back didn’t they? Well, more than a few I guess but a remake of a remake is kind of meh to me, and at 89.99 here in Canada it’s total bs
I would've accepted a downgrade in some aspects as long as it ran smoothly and still looked at least on par with TLoU2. But it looks like they just wanted to sell more PS5s... which is understandable since they aren't a charity but disappointing nonetheless. Of course they were always gonna kick the PS4 to the curb eventually like for their next major title, I was just hoping this would've been their last hurrah like Guerrilla with HFW and SSM with Ragnarok.
They are learning. Or at least I hope so ( looks at gow ragnarok 2021 release date).
Yeah same ! I'm in Canada , fuck this man
Probably not as the dialogue of the duo was contextual to where you were in the game ( the abandoned record store for example) . So you need more dialogue if the environments were larger thereby changing an aspect to the game's story. This is a 1:1 remake but with better combat.
There is a huge difference between a remaster and a remake.
Money/Greed. No it didn’t.
That’s a shame, hopefully they remake Part 2 next.
I'm glad they did it, I wanted a remake with the PS4 but all we got was a serviceable remaster. I want to be able to play both TLOU1 and TLOU2 with at least the same level of fidelity. The fact is this is a true remake not another remaster as some are saying. Nobody is forcing anyone to buy this and ND wouldn't have had another game ready any sooner if they hadn't worked on this. They just released TLOU2 two years ago, they are already working on an MP project so this was likely something to keep the rest of the team busy while the other game was early in development.No better than EA and Activision here. I can't believe they sat up there had this studio waste their time on this shit. Im disgusted Hermen allowed this
Herman didnt just allow it. He kinda forced it to happen. This was NOT a Naughty Dog project. It was VSG studio project. A support studio. After Herman came on, he saw the remake, wasnt impressed at all and asked why is it so expensive. Immediately after that, Naughty Dog started to take a bigger role and then completely took over the project after shipping TLOU2 forcing the VSG studio leads to quit and leave in protest. I fail to understand how wasting TWO full years of Naughty Dog's time is less expensive than a C-tier support studio's time.No better than EA and Activision here. I can't believe they sat up there had this studio waste their time on this shit. Im disgusted Hermen allowed this
Probably for PS6 running on The Last Of Us 3 engine...
I understand your point, but from the trailer, this game just looks like TLOU2 graphics with TLOU1 story and 60fps. Its not entirely new engine. Reused engine, Same dialogs, same music, etc.
More clearly went into such a remake and they don't see this as a budget game...
So.,...JUST like FromSoft is working on different games, ALL OF ND is not fucking making this.
Yeah $70 for all the Playstation fans? Fucking rip-off. I want to see how much it cost on Steam when the PC version comes out and how will the PC guys react if its 70$.
Retcon Joel’s death lol some people just can’t accept it. The guy is gone, he was shit anyway.
lol yeah it’s funny
Nah Joel’s a great character, very well written and acted.
If I'm not wrong, So far there's no game that cost $70 on steam. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Demon's souls Remake: new engine, new animation, facial expression. Remastered Music, sounds. VFX, weather system, new assets.
SlimySnake
While I agree that the Demon Souls remake looks better, this is also a remake. In fact, they are changing the gameplay a lot more than Bluepoint ever did where they mostly just tweaked it. I think the biggest thing BP added was rolling in all directions when the original only had 4 rolling. I mean they didnt even have the plunging attack from future souls games. So yeah, the gameplay mechanics and combat are nearly identical whereas TLOU should play a lot like TLOU2 which overhauled the combat mechanics, animations, enemy A.I, Ellie's moveset (going prone, shooting from the ground etc.)
Just watched the 4k trailer. It looks fine to me. I think TLOU2 is still one of the best looking games out there and this looks pretty much on par with it. Top 5 behind HFW, Ratchet, Flight Sim, and Demon Souls. I just expected more from a PS5 only release from sony's best developer on Mark Cerny's masterpiece of a hardware. I still remember devs talking about how this console was revolutionary, and yet two years later, his developers have let him down.I will say that watching this on 4k looks a lot better. The problem is we didn’t get any gameplay, I think that would have done a lot more to sell the product if we could see the improvements in action and compare them to what we had before
I just never really wanted this, and think $70 is a ripoff for those that already have bought this game multiple times.
It’s a wait for sale for me.
We do know. Neil confirmed on stage that they did not re-record any lines or reshoot any mocap cutscenes. Both lead actors were on stage and saw this for the first time ever. They werent even part of the remake development. The only things changed for the cutscenes were character models, background assets, and facial animations which were redone to match the original mocap data back when they first shot the cutscenes.
I hated him since the ending of the first game.
Looks more like remastered than remake.
