I played through those releases recently and thought they were fine. They looked great and played great as well.
I'm not interested in mods or custom wads, just want a fairly vanilla experience to play through the games, so I'm excited for this remaster.
I didn't mean to imply that they're bad ports, just not as fleshed out/mature as the ones the Open Source community has built.
That and that the Bethesda ports have too much bloat. Nobody cares about signing into Bethesda.net.
True about the Bethesda Net stuff, but for me, it just meant the game launched 3s slower. I've read some comments that the servers sucked at some point. If it took much longer or maybe even prevented the game from working properly, I'd probably be more passionate about it.
I played through Heretic with GZDoom, since the Steam release is just the original game running in DOSBox. It's not like it was complicated setting it all up, but definitely not as plug-and-play as the Unity ports.
