The entire Legacy of Kain series. Wish they would have finished the series :(

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

keep the original voices though!

The voice acting in those games were top-notch and I don't want to risk ruining that

Oblivion, Fallout 3, and Fallout New Vegas could use a 64-bit version. Even if they change absolutely nothing else about those games, that alone would be a major improvement, as they are very prone to crashing from running out of address space, especially if you have graphics mods installed.

Not saying that these shouldn't have a more stable official release, but hasn't this been solved by mods for a long while now? At least New Vegas I remember when I last set up mods installing a fix for this, it's actually quite stable now if you install all the recommended fixes.

Eternal darkness for the GameCube could be so good with a proper remaster.

The original Quake but the asthetic needs to be identical and NIN should actually do the soundtrack.

Deus Ex would be great, it was so ahead of its time.

Honestly read dead redemption holds up so well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah but i dont want to buy a 10 year old system to play it

It runs really well on Xenia-canary.

Good looking out!

For most of them a proper remake rather than a remaster but I'll take what I can get

  • Star Wars Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast
  • Star Wars Galactic Battlegrounds (originally used the same engine as Age of Empires 2 so porting it to the Definitive Edition engine should be doable)
  • The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion
  • Final Fantasy VI
  • Final Fantasy VIII
  • Assassin's Creed 1
[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Played Assassin's Creed 1 recently and it's so clunky. A remaster would need some new controls or something to be viable today, but a remake would be better.

Maybe this is moot since they would just do the usual Square Enix “remaster” (read: poorly upscaled and very basic QoL improvements)

I want some love for Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross. Even if they just made it 2.5 HD similar to Octopath Traveller, Diofield Chronicle, etc

Beyond Good and Evil.

Absolute masterpiece. Ubisoft has been squandering the IP for decades.

Final Fantasy 9. It's my favourite in the series, and it's gotten lots of rereleases in its original form. But it would be nice if it got a more polished updated remaster.

Though I would be afraid of how modern Square sensibilities might change the pretty iconic character designs.

very niche but Skies of Arcadia! I miss my pirate RPG with airship battling featuring main characters that may or may not develop a harem at the end.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
  • Parasite Eve
  • Prototype 1
  • Legend of Dragoon
  • NFL Blitz (just a modern upgrade, keep the arcade feel)
  • Smash TV

We're actually getting a Star Ocean 2 remaster in November, so I can cross that off the list.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Bully and KOTOR II

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Lord of the Rings: Gollum

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

There are a bunch of old Sega IPs I'd love to see get a modern treatment. Alex Kidd. Space Harrier. Shinobi. Wonder Boy in Monster Land got the proper treatment a few years back with a gorgeous remake and a pseudo-sequel.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

A modern remake of Populous could be amazing.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Deus Ex. The original one. It has such great story and gameplay but is dated by today's standards.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Jedi Knight 2 and Medieval 2 Total War for me

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Final Fantasy Tactics

Vagrant Story

but please don't completely change the visual style! just clean them up for modern resolution screens

Skies of Arcadia - Would love an updated version of this on the Switch, or some other system. Especially if they can bring back Pinta's Quest, using a phone app or other small device.

Darkened Skye - Though I'm probably one of the few who actually enjoyed this.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Icewind Dale 2 need a remaster / EE edition. I remember reading somewhere that the source code was lost. Same issue with HOMM3 extensions that why there is no HD edition of the full game and why GOG version is still the best.

My heart and soul says YES but the rational part of my brain knows they would just screw it up. Morrowind is a product of a long-gone age of gaming and I can't imagine the suits would let it fly today, and it wouldn't be the same without its old charms and quirks.

Arcanum and Divinity II (Ego Draconis, not original sin 2)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

C&C: Tiberian Sun and the Firestorm expansion. I wasn't the biggest fan of the original C&C, but picked up the remaster to show my support in the hopes that Tiberian Sun would get the treatment. Unfortunately, that doesn't seem to be happening as far as I've seen.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Yes, and Red Alert 2 as well (since it runs on the same-ish engine).

I've been hoping for this since the release of the remastered versions of the original C&C and Red Alert.

I know I’m in a minority but DK64! I loved that game as a kid. Maybe it was because my game library was quite small growing up but I spent hours and hours during summer vacation with the DK Crew

  • .hack IMOQ (I was coping so hard after GU got a remaster but still nothing)
  • Dragon age origins
  • Digimon world 3. There have been two reboots/reimaginings of digimon world 1 (re digitized decode, and next order), but never anything about world 2 and 3.
