Comment on Everyone thinks the Deus Ex remaster looks awful and they're right: 'They really turned those 1999 graphics into 2003 graphics'

  better specs to run it than Mankind Divided

  Guess I’ll stay content with the old one.

  i mean that mod does change the game completely though lol, and the graphics are just not the same. i also feel like 90% of the target audience can run 4 instances of mankind divided at once. it ran on the PS4 and XB1, which came out 12 years ago. the remaster is literally getting released on the switch.

  most of the complaints ive read have been unfounded remarks about them just using ai to retexture everything, or recommending mods that are in no way equal to the remaster. what would make it better though, in your opinion?

  “Support for multi-monitor and ultra-wide displays, auto saves, achievements, cloud saves, and more quality-of-life features are confirmed to be included.” sounds pretty nice to me, and reading over their goals it appears to be a very legitimate remaster.

  less jank, better looking (obviously an hot take of mine, reading peoples bitter comments) and the opportunity for millions of people to experience the game for the first time without taking time to learn how to mod the game just to get a subpar experience.

    I wouldn’t say no to oblivion remaster treatment. Completely new models and environments in a new engine, while running the old game logic.
    Right now it really does look like they remastered it to in 2007 and are releasing it now.
    I think its more sad they’re doing a remaster and not putting more effort into it.

      it looks better than all of the graphics mods people are pushing, which came out 10-15 years later. nothing is enough for people.

      yeah i dont get it at all lmao. those graphics look SIGNIFICANTLY better, and they have promised a pretty good list of improvements. all i see is speculation and cynicism. those models look pretty fucking new in comparison to the originals, and their lighting engine is now in existence, just from the 2 screenshots i saw.
