System Shock: Remake

it doesnt "feel" right for some reason, idk how to explain it

Why don't you just try?

This is the most clear example of being soulless I've ever seen.

It's like some schmuck re-drawing the Mona Lisa and posting it on YouTube. I mean, it's a good drawing and all, but... what's the point?

I guess what I'm trying to say is that while normally (good) video games have some sort of an artistic vision which other developers would find hard to replicate, this remake doesn't even bother with artistic vision. It's like... literally anyone could produce an identical product, given the resources.

Hard to explain.

looks like typical really bad unity shit

why hasn't someone whipped up a system shock remake in the source engine in like 12 hours yet?

I'm not a fan of making everything gloomy and poorly lit in the hopes of making it more "atmospheric". Almost reminds me of Doom 3.

Personally it feels off because they're trying to make the game more horror than it actually was. It's really common for people to play System Shock 2 first because it's more recent, and then they develop this idea that the System Shock games are primarily a horror series. When really SS1 was much more about action, and only SS2 was survival horror.

This remake seems to be changing the game to match those misconceptions about the game, instead of remaking it as it was.

>what's the point?
Really faggot?
Stop huffing your own farts and think critically for a second.
Have you even played the original System Shock?

I thought this was cancelled?

they better not be taking out the rollerskates

Yes, I have. Emulated it on DOSBox, and loved every second of it.

What's YOUR point? Where exactly am I sniffing my own farts?

The point is they have to do something to satisfy the people who donated to the kickstarter, and tracing over old art assets is the path of least resistance.

>Where exactly am I sniffing my own farts?
Since birth apparently, jesus christ.

If you don't understand the benefits of a modern remake you might legitimately be retarded, probably a side effect of the afore mentioned methane huffing.

It's you who's the idiot, incapable of enjoying old things without cosmetic facelifts. You're a mindless drone with no appreciation for the arts, I can see that.
Now I'll got an sniff my farts in piece, sure in my superiority to your shit tastes.

No really user, you're a faggot.

Games are an interactive medium, the way we interact with them changes and continues to change over time, as do the platforms.

They're not at all comparable to fine art which is completely passive and the way in which we consume it hasn't changed since it's inception.

Try not to overdose on methane user.

And even then SS2 was "survival horror" up till the Cargo bays. After that, you (hopefully) had enough upgrades to mog the rest of the enemies with your guns.

>game is old, so let's butcher it by making it another space horror emulator instead of the action pakced game it actually was
>yes this will clearly make the series more popular instead of being laughed at for its failure to pick up any sales
Mark my words, if the game they release looks like the trailer, people are going to ignore it harder than they ignore the original game. It's one thing to control your character like he's a crane, it's an even worse thing to make a mediocre, run-of-the-mill game that everybody forgets in one week.

I'm sorry I hurt your feelings user, but you were absolutely carrying on like a faggot and it needed to be said.

Glad you're at least thinking about shit critically now and not just huffing your own butt juice though.

I am not him you butt fantasizing moron. I am just saying that your argument is a bit iffy, since you are ignoring the possibility of the remake being bland and uninteresting. You can't say that about the original now, can you?

If the remake is bland and uninteresting, so be it, that doesn't diminish the original in any way.

Glad you agree that there doesn't need to be a remake then, user.

And now you're just being a faggot again twisting words rather than partaking in an actual discussion, imagine my shock.

And your entire argument has been an immature ad-hominem ever since getting compeltely trounced, what's your point?

No user, my entire argument was that drawing comparisons between two completely different art forms that are consumed in two completely different ways and using that as a basis for why remakes are pointless was retarded.

Grab a tissue, wipe away the tears and come back when you're cable of something other than fart huffing.

They did have their own artistic vision while they tried to make their own reboot of the game. But they had to abandon that when the money ran out.

Even if they are different, they are still artforms to be consumed.
The other dude used the Mona Lisa as an example. It was a fine example since if somebody made a sub-par remake of it, and it got in the Louvre, it would de-evaluate the original. You can see how a shitty remake would make the original even more obscure than it already is.
It's a pretty simple thing to get but I guess being a fart fetishist has really gotten to your head.
>when you're cable
>is so mad that he makes childish mistakes
I prefer Cyclops, Cable is too edgy.

Epic store exclusive, so NO.

Naaah, it can't be. Are you serious?

>implying Cyclops isn't an edgy depressed faggot
