They removed a lot of the (imo) really iconic percussion from the rescoring of the OST in the remake, and personally I find papa nier a bit more compelling. Other than those, and visual style preference, the remake is generally the better game.
Its kinda worth playing both though

I have a genki shadowcast 2(not pro) plugged into a retrotink 5x that I pull direct video from through obs(not the kinda shit "arcade" app), the video and audio quality are probably near top end of what is noticeable by a normal person

If you can find one cheap on ebay, shadowcast 2 is plug'n'play

it also does sound like they were holding a decent bit back for the server tests, so if that is revealed to be true then I imagine there will be a good bit more to chew on. Time will tell, but they did get me to buy it after I was pretty certain I wasn't interested

Issues with Bungo(the main problem) aside...
I think a lot of the appeal aesthetically does kinda predicate on a preexisting interest in the lore and setting. It all worked well for me, and Bungie is usually pretty good with lore stuff. Gameplay was fun for me, but I do like simpler things sometimes

This bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.

We cannot and should not let generative AI take away these tiny, insignificant, but probably fun as hell jobs from artists

gee I wonder why fromsoftware would've turned down the bloodborne remake from bluepoint. It definitely couldn't have anything to do with them doing an entire documentary series where they referred to their demons souls original designs multiple times as "clearly done wrong" or "an obvious mistake"

At the same time though.... Twitch has to process our tax information? Which we need to provide our personal information directly to them anyway? I don't understand why they need this.

at the same time, I think one of the greatest strengths of games is that people can experience them like this as well. people can walk away from the same game with so many different experiences

the hardware itself, the history of the development, changes in the zeitgeist as time goes on, new advancements and applications of tech, all of these are unique aspects of the medium worth appreciating in their own right.

at the same time, if 'toy' is your goal, then the rules change, and it suddenly makes perfect sense for everything to run like butter and for the controls to let you do anything you could want.
neither of these are objectively 'correct', it's more about goals and expectations, both dev and player.

game developers in the 80s/90s/00s working with the limitations would understandably not understand the desire to recreate those limitations. But those things that were made in this way create a specific mood and feeling, and I think it's short sighted to deny this from an artistic perspective

I personally think that framerate, performance, and controls are valued differently if you're viewing a game from an 'art' or 'toy' perspective, and the insinuation in this video that 60 fps objectively improves OoT is something that only works if you come at it from one direction

I personally feel that one of the coolest things about video games as a medium is that they have the versatility to be both toy and art, sometimes at once or sometimes singularly, and to differing degrees.

Remakes and Art: Can Games Be Replaced? YouTube video by Nerrel

I find myself disagreeing with Nerrel on many points in most of his videos (I agree with him a lot too), but I think he asks many of the right questions and presents them in very succinct and poignant ways.
