It’s truly a great game, but I’m unsure what a remake will bring.

I just posted the same comment in another thread. It’s a great game and wouldn’t feel out of place if it was released today.

Lawl my partner and I just played this all the way through together. Great game. Zero need for a… remake?!

Think outside the box. The remake could have support for up to 10 brothers, so long as you connect that many analogue sticks, and you control one per finger. Add a character creator, enhance it to a strand type game, support for more languages, skill-based online co-op, and reimagine it as an open-world sandbox. :')

Kinda looks like this will have a proper co-op
Guntrigger@feddit.ch 11 months ago
It does, and that might be a nice experience, but I feel like the one player/two sticks mechanic was kind of the main point of it.
I don’t feel like the game would have had the same impact on me, if I co-oped it like I did with It Takes Two (which was designed as a co-op experience).

We truly live the era of remakes. I’d rather devs made new games instead.
GONADS125@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Same. I can replay old games and still enjoy them if the gameplay is good. I’ve been wanting to replay Jack and Daxter again. I don’t need the graphics updated. That damn polygon fish will still make me squirm with the increasing heartbeats…
graymess@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Not exactly updated graphics, but you can play Jak & Daxter at 4K 60FPS on PC with OpenGOAL. Best way to play the game.

But the saaaalllleeess
Fridgeratr@lemmy.world 11 months ago
How about a sequel instead? The game isn’t even very long
SgtAStrawberry@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Not that much sequel material in my opinion. Did you have anything in mind?
Fridgeratr@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Not really lol. But a similar game with different characters in a different setting would probably be good.
silentknyght@lemmy.world 11 months ago
Hmmm. I own it but haven’t ever played it. Are there bad controls or other bugs or quirks with the original… You know, something that would justify a remake?
delitomatoes@lemm.ee 11 months ago
This is one of the most pointless games to remake, just play the original
Kyatto@leminal.space 11 months ago
In this game the controls were practicality the best feature. The graphics are completely fine. It is a perfectly fine narrative experience that will work on modern computers so yeah idk. It’s getting new paint I guess.
criticalinvite@lemmy.world 11 months ago
I played it way back when and tried it again after it takes two. Proper co-op would be great, for me
FoundTheVegan@kbin.social 11 months ago
Co-op would defeat the entire purpose of the game.
NIB@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The control scheme and lack of coop are fundamental to the design and story telling of the game. The only game i have played that tells a story through actual gameplay.

The updated graphics do look super pretty. This is a classic, and if this keeps new people playing it into the future that’s awesome.
I think of remasters/remakes like this like I do brand new 4k HDR remasters of classic movies. Since they are shorter focused narrative games.

I loved this game! I’ll be getting the remake for sure
brambledog@lemmy.today 11 months ago
Never heard of this game in my life, no idea to its quality but the title is absolutely hilariousmy bad. It makes me want to play it.
Does the game deliver on the camp or is it a legitimate game with just a bad English title?
nawa@lemmy.world 11 months ago
It’s a legitimate game. A pretty good one at that.
BustinJiber@lemmy.world 11 months ago
The ending squeezed a chuckle out of me, let’s see if it still works in massive resolution.
Grass@sh.itjust.works 11 months ago
Of all things that could get a remake, this one is likely the most “why?” of all time.
Schaedelbach@feddit.de 11 months ago
Yeah! I played it something like two years ago and it aged wonderful! I mean, I wish them all the success in the world but this game doesn’t actually need a remake
