Why would you pre order this? In case there aren't enough digital copies?

Honestly, with Aspyr, I wouldn't be surprised if they somehow ran out of digital copies. That's how fucking shit they are.

 

[Piggoro]

YESSS!

 

[Spukc]

Lol fuck them and fuck spending any second on their shit.
This thread is a waste
Well we are warning people how shit they are so
Eh

 

[Red Crayon Aristocrat]

Thank goodness, maybe they'll do it right this time.

I apologize for defending Aspyr when they were given the KOTOR remake

I was convinced that abandoned was a Kojima game for quite some time. Fun times, but looking back on it I was really dumb

 

[DonkeyPunchJr]

Let them cook

P.S. This is 2 Aspyr announcements at Sony events that shit the bed. Maybe they should check on them next time.

Dude on the right looks like he belongs in Xenoblade Chronicles X. He's got some serious xenoface going on.

Nightdive is the most obvious choice for this game.

Guessing the budget for the whole thing was so low it was between Aspyr and 3 interns. They should have gone with interns.

That's what happens when you pick Aspyre over Grove Street Games.

Ditch the nu-graphics mode, it looks ugly. Just take a leaf out of the Nightdive playbook and deliver the old graphics as flawlessly as possible in 4K 120fps:



This thing should primarily be about making the original game playable and accessible on consoles, which is a more of a user experience challenge than anything else. Everybody already expects a 25 year old game to look old.

Yeah, that's pretty much the best way to handle these types of games if you're doing a ground-up remake. Instead of trying to drag a 1999 game kicking and screaming into 2005, polishing up the existing assets and rounding off the edges provides a much better experience in terms of presenting an old game to new audiences. Heck, throw some path tracing on it and let the improved lighting carry the weight of a complete asset overhaul; games like Quake 2 look fucking stunning in their path traced versions.

 

[The Cockatrice]

How the fuck do you give 2 incredible franchises to FUCKING NOBODIES LMAO. This industry is a joke.

Quake 2 looks stunning no matter what. The game has a very strong art direction which hides the low geometry of the environments.

Deus Ex doesn't have that. I always thought it's an ugly looking game. Making it look good today is going to be much harder.
