What about quake? That got remade and we didn’t have to pay for that
Comment on TIME.com's 10 Best Video Games of 2023
GoodEye8@lemm.ee 6 months agoSo if you’ve seen Fincher’s Dune then paying for Villeneuve’s Dune is not acceptable? After all they’re technically the same movie because they’re based on the same source material.
I get not liking a remake because it’s one to one the same, but I don’t get not liking a remake just because it’s a remake. System Shock remake is true to System Shock but it still feels different enough to be a separate game.

What remake? To my knowledge Quake 1 and 2 have got enhanced editions, which basically a remaster that also had some additional content.

I’m not saying that these, or remakes generally, are bad(I’ve even been thinking of picking up the DS remake). I just don’t think they should be contenders for GOTY.

So hypothetically speaking, if there was a remake of some game and that remake turns out to be the best game ever made, then it shouldn’t be considered a GOTY contender simply because it’s a remake?
