Why dont all remakes/remasters do what Combat Evolved did and let you switch to the old graphics with a push of a button? It would make the soul soulless shit obsolete.
Why dont all remakes/remasters do what Combat Evolved did and let you switch to the old graphics with a push of a...
Warcraft 3 let's you do that, still worst remaster in history of gaming
Because soulless fags will always find something to complain about.
They'll say the physics aren't 100% accurate to what they used to be.
They'll say the damage values aren't 100% accurate to what they used to be.
They'll say that it's a waste of time and they might as well still play the original.
The truth is that you can't please old bad new good fags no matter what you do, so you should never even try to please them in general.
The type of person taht is obsessed with soulless will pretty soon quit video games entirely, it's inevitable, they're a dead end.
>buying remastered games
Sucker is born every minute
>Yas Forums is full of actual austists
You don’t say
that didn't make reforged any less fucking shit tho
>Why dont all remakes/remasters do what Combat Evolved did and let you switch to the old graphics with a push of a button? It would make the soul soulless shit obsolete.
Because it's frankly pointless and mostly just a "heh, neat" feature you press once or twice.
A toggle at most in the menus maybe, but the entire point is to improve the visual fidelity of the originals.
The point is to take the original and improve clarity and fidelity to modern standards, but what these companies do instead is take somebody else's idea and vision, change it into something totally different in an attempt scrub any trace of identity from the original design, and try (and fail) to make it their own as if people wouldn't notice.
If you're not going to respect the original composition but feel you know better, and you could do better, come up with an original property inspired by what you're ripping off instead of taking a fat shit on whatever you set out to "improve".
Holy fuck, they botched it
I don't know why they're so fucking obsessed with the color blue.
Top still looks way better
It's not necessarily a given that the original isn't messed up
Game is on game pass
imagine thinking the top looks better
>just greeble my shit cap'n
>The type of person taht is obsessed with soulless will pretty soon quit video games entirely
Couldn't be further from the truth. The only retards that would say this are stupid zoomers like yourself who started playing games last gen. Which also means you'd be the one to quit at the drop of a hat.
>just blur and smear it with a single color, Bonnie
Because it requires 2 graphic engines to do such a thing. Nobody wants to spend money on that
Halo CEA's anniversary graphics are atrocious. 343 didn't even try to capture the same look, feel, and atmosphere that the original graphics had. All they did was slap a bunch of Reach and Halo 4 assets together and called it a day. It's simply unacceptable.
way more polygons and better sense of depth and scale. at least in this comparison
>add classic mode
>its still soulless compared to original
I wasn't aware, and I'm not surprised. It seems like there's a trend of major companies outsourcing their biggest IPs to literal who pajeets and having the results being subpar at best. When will they learn to do it themselves. 343 is still a complete mess though, considering the disappointment that was Halo 4 and the complete dumpster fire that was Halo 5. I hope that they learned from their mistakes and are going to make Infinite actually good. I hope.
That is not the case at all. I would've loved to see warcraft 3 reforged succeed. All they had to do was to improve the graphics. Just a modern, fresh coat of paint so its up to standards these days.
While not touching the original warcraft 3. That is all they had to do. They messed up completely.
The terrain in the distance is much better, but there's too much green.
A purist would have kept the cliff walls and overhangs in.
They're trying to ground it in realism when they didn't need to because the whole thing is supposed to be artificial and mass constructed
I took out the comment because I misspoke about the art style. The style was very deliberate by 343i, but yes, the actual work was all outsourced to a few studios.
CE and 2A's campaign was outsourced to Saber Interactive, who supplied the new engine, and produced the new visuals.
Certain Affinity did the multiplayer
Blur did 2A's CG cinematics.
If you'll notice -- the art styles vary wildly because of that outsourcing.
On CE:A, the new look on the campaign was ripped from 343i's work on Halo 4, but Certain Affinity modelled their multiplayer maps after Bungie's designs.
On 2A that was rectified, Saber and CA's work matched 343i's new style for both modes, but then Blur missed a memo and produced content modelled in Bungie's style for their cinematics.
but why? why is the new old graphic a downgrade to the original?
pic
why it looks worse or why is it considered a downgrade?
It's considered a downgrade because of a slew of missing and broken effects. It happened because the MCC/Anniversary is based off of Gearbox's PC port of CE from back in the day.
Gearbox did a poor job porting the game.
the textures, lighting, effects.
adjust your monitor or get glasses if you cant notice
Honestly what the fuck were the people at Blizzard thinking when they decided all that shit?
>It happened because the MCC/Anniversary is based off of Gearbox's PC port of CE from back in the day.
So the classic graphic of Halo 1 MCC is the same graphic like the old Halo 1 PC version from 2003?
>Reading comprehension

what went right
>All they had to do was to improve the graphics
The graphics were already good. And you can't just "update" the graphics like that, without using a new engine. Now thanks to blizzdrones like you wc3 is ruined forever.
Yes; the broken gearbox port.
yes
They hate wc3 and they wanted to drop support on the old battle.net client.
Pretty much.

>tfw AAA company couldn't fix the game but modders could

Legit, actual, fucking nerds, with a keen eye for detail.
>new graphics don't line up with old geometry
NO.
>implying Combat Evolved remaster lets you switch to the old graphics

Warcraft 3 already looked good enough, all they needed to do was just add better resolution scaling/being able to resize the UI which wouldnt be hard at all to do and wouldnt need an engine update at all.
That and ban bots from battle.net and maybe make it so its 2004 again god I miss the golden years
Man the lighting in CE was atrocious.
when are we getting a pc version of Halo 2 anniversary?
Crushed blacks in that image they used for some reason. That's not how the game actually looks.
within six months
because original xbox was limited RGB (16-235) not full RGB (0-255)

Play SPV3 instead, is the ultimate Halo 1 experience
Is it just me or does the Halo 2:A pre-rendered cutscenes felt like an uncanny valley?
Most of Blur's cinematics/trailers are like that. Western photorealistic art style leads to that.
>add better resolution scaling and ban bots
They did all that around 2017 and Warcraft 3 had a huge resurgence. The game was perfect until Reforged came and fucked everything up.
aside from all the gay shit
Oops for got to post the pic.
Because if it's a one-to-one remaster they can't scrub out problematic content and insert random diversity where it wasn't there originally, user.
It takes effort to implement.
theres a glitch with the bump mapping that makes it look like shit
because they aren't all built like that, especially fucking remakes lol
someone post the truth and retcon comparison
fully modelled scrublands
Lil' zoomzoom is not gonna buy or play wc3 classic, with its older graphics and they probably can't market it that good.
But even if those improvements would have just been UI and resolution I would've liked that much more than what they did with reforged.
It's easier to move to a different engine
Shouldn't Miranda look younger?
Shouldn't Miranda look a littl bit like Cortana?
I'm retarded
