Is it really THAT bad?

by itself it's not a bad game. has big flaws (mainly the fps) but still worth playing.
what makes it really bad is the price. $60 for a flawed remake of a gameboy game. it's inexcusable.

Another first-Party Nintendo flop. Combine that with the 70% analogue stick default rate that was uncovered. This year has been rough for switch owners.

The only bad thing are the huge framerate issues, the blur effect and its price/longevity (due to being a 1:1 remake of a GB game), but all of them depend on how much you care about them.

The game itself is amazing.

Reminder Grezzo are the guys behind this and other "remakes" like OoT, MM, Luigi's Mansion (3DS) and other stuff.

There's not much Nintendo influence besides from there and of course Miyamoto would want things akin to the original.

tl;dr original game has its flaws, but didn't stop it from being enjoyable, but adaptation of that one to this one is remarkably plain and generic looking and really just a excuse to say they've remade it. Core remains unchanged from the most part and by judging it from this game, you're judging the original. Everything else is aesthetic issues and longevity concerns for a GAME BOY game.

make of that as you will

Based Jim.

>This year has been rough for Switch owners

I don't think so lol. I think Astral Chain and Daemon releasing within two weeks of this is pretty good

I've been checking it out, some of the frame drops are pretty harsh, the swamp seems really bad. I also wonder why they didn't partition the world into screens like it used to be instead of having this gigantic load time when you enter the world and framerate issues. They could have split it up like the gameboy to make it easier to process.

Oh, and, why didn't Link try leaving the island on a raft? Because a fucking Owl told him it wouldn't work?

I saw gameplay of it and holy moly it is really hard to look at.

The heavy depth of field, plastic, and undetailed characters just don't sync with me.

I really want to like it, but I can't past the music and dialogue.

RE2 is unironically the GOTY

I don't like how everything shines like it's soaked in plexiglass. Would it have hurt to make trees look like trees and rocks look like rocks?

>le ebin console wars

It's an exact 3d recreation of the original with smoother controls. The original was great, therefore the remake is also great. The only subjective part is the art style.

It's a pretty good and charming game, but the price is a tad too much, it shoudl be a 40 bucks game like the Crash and Spyro remakes.

Wasn't the Shadow of the Colossus remake $60?

but Link's Awakening has sold the most of all Switch games this year so far, and the only game that didn't sell well (mostly because of Marvelous incompetent marketing) is Daemon x Machina, everything else has sold more than expected.

>smoother controls
t. hasn't played the original

Game is fine but I will probably never play it again until they sort out the framerate.

It's good just because it's a remake of one the best zelda games. It's still a barebones remake considering the price.

Shit aesthetic
Shit price
Shit framerate swaps for indoor and outdoor
Shit controls, can't even use the fucking dpad

The framerate is enough for me to disregard it as a failure.

>flawed
How?

it's a great game, Yea Forums is basically the only place that shits on it because switch exclusives always create immense anal pain among the autistic refuses populating this shithole

guaranteed luigi's mansion 3 will be called garbage here next month while everyone else gushes about it

>(mainly the fps)

the main issue with it is aside from the artstyle it is TOO faithful of a remake
like it doesn't add any new content, it doesn't change anything, its just literally the exact same game as the original Links awakening but with better Graphics

>but with better Graphics
Worse graphics.
I don't remember the GB version having frame drops and gigantic load screens.

those are performance/optimization issues, not graphics ones

A lot of outdoor areas rape the framerate, especially when you're moving to a new area just chugs and hiccups like crazy

If they toned down the tilt-shift and bloom the game would probably run at a stable framerate.

It's a good game with bad pricing

I'm fine with the art direction but the framerate tanking to 30fps everytime you enter a new area is really killing my enjoyment of the game. I'd much rather have screen scrolling like the original than what we have now.

A game like this doesn't need to be running at 60fps. Just lock it to 30 and it would be so much better.

There's no reason for it not to run at 60 when it looks as simple as it does.
I don't know how they fucked this up.

EVERYTHING on Switch is overpriced. Especially the ports and remakes.Doom 2016 costs $60. What an absolute joke that is.

that still doesn't change that content wize, it is an extremely faithful remake t o the point it shoots itself in the foot by being a 60 dollar game with the amount of content of an ancient Gameboy game

>it is an extremely faithful remake
The graphics aren't remade faithfully, even if you like them, the original game was not Funko Adventures.
The opening intro cinematic is faithful until the boat gets hit by lightning.

It's really funny people are shitting on this game for being an almost 1:1 remake when one of the reasons for that might be how much mess people made over the stupid changes they made for Majora's Mask 3D.

Saws

That's because the MM changes were bad.
People don't want bad changes.
They want good changes.

What's a bad change is subjective from person to person. How many people on Yea Forums dismissed OOT3D based on slight changes to lighting affecting the mood?

It looks like shit, like the game might be great and i might buy it but god this artstyle fucking sucks dick. They could have gone for a Pixar like look if they wanted something cartoony and not this fucking toy bullshit

Attached: 4141421412.jpg (511x844, 50K)

the original was a very stylized SD type game with characters who had even less features than the ones in the remake

the current artstyle is far more faithful than whatever badass epic dark souls look you envisioned in your delusional autistic mind

No come on, you can't be serious.
Majora's Mask had crippling and terrible changes. The 4th boss is an absolute disaster of a redesign.
The deku hop speed is literally broken.
The zora swimming is objectively worse, they just removed a function of the original game and you can only do it by consuming MP in the remake.
The inverted song of time was broken.
Eyes on all the bosses made them all worse and removed the need for their unique strategies.
Ice arrows were broken and only work at designated Ice arrow locations.

Like, this isn't a case of "It's just your opinion bro". The Majora's Mask changes were all retarded.
I can tolerate the notebook changes, they're whatever.

The original wasn't stylized, it was low resolution due to hardware limitations.

Didnt sony ask $60 for just a framerate and resolution boost on games that were bearly 2 years old?

Huh, didn't know Saw is having its 9th film in 2020.

Attached: linkle_shocked.png (410x550, 294K)

of course it was stylized, don't be retarded

it didn't try to go for remotely realistic depictions of human characters unlike say return of samus or the castlevania games on the same hardware, everyone is like a tiny ball with big black dots for eyes

Not Funko style.
It looked more like a 90s anime.

I'm talking in game you retard

It’s a 1:1 remake with Quality of Life improvements. FPS issues aside (and it is weird) if you’re one of the faggots in this thread and every other one who feel they should be in charge of Nintendo’s pricing then get it for the 3DS - it’s pretty much the exact same game. Or emulate it if you’re a cybernigger.

Ultimately it’s a fantastic game.

Which is a lower res version of the intro, due to screen size.

I literally cannot believe this is the current state of everything. That having a dissenting opinion on a 1st party Nintendo release is now controversial pr considered "contrarian." Its clear that people who are otherwise fans have gripes, and the first effort has been to either downplay this or outright dismiss it as trolling

It's great except the frame rate.

I haven't been able to, I think it's possible but was a lot easier in the original.

Two of my minor gripes for anyone who wants to have a non-hysterical discussion:

1. Manbo’s tune on the ocarina sucks
2. Needing 50 seashells sucks although the LV-2 sword made a pretty easy game even easier.

Oh and I’ll confess: I miss the photographer

Nice. I’ll get the game when it’s on a discount then.

This is what I'm thinking about doing. There's bound to be a good amount of returns with how much people are whinging about it.

>can't hear it because you always have a guardian acorn

Still more good games in a single year than the ps4 has gotten since launch.

The dungeon themes are superb, I love how some are pretty much new tracks but have the original theme as a motif, like Anglers Tunnel.

Only one I don't really like is the owl's theme, the brass takes away from the mysterious feeling of the original.

Pokemon has the same proportions that you mentioned but it's due to being a top down, tile based GBA game with a zoomed out camera which is why it looks different to Metroid which has a closer camera and allows more detail to be shown on Samus's design.
Comparing Pokemon and Zelda makes a lot more sense than Zelda and Metroid with this considered. The fact that the graphics are lacking in detail is not an intentional design but rather a technological limitation which is made clear by the box, the instruction manual and other promotional material which show a far more detailed Link. The same material for the new Link's Awakening, including the art book, show nothing but the Funko Pop design, that's the intended style with the new game which is not remotely faithful to the original character designs.
Not sure how I can clear this up any more for you.
Also I'm not criticising the style of the new game, just pointing out to you that it is anything but faithful.

No, the only reason there are threads hating on it is because a bunch of anti-Nintendo and Sony fans feel the need to pretend Switch exclusives aren't great so as soon as a review mentions one bad thing they just hammer it in and pretend it's the end of Nintendo and the game is 0/10. Oh and everytime there isnt a problem they immediately do the "this is a 7/10 at best" stereotype thread that they do for every single exclusive

My god, you’re stupid. Even by this place’s standards.

>Pokemon has the same proportions that you mentioned but it's due to being a top down, tile based GBA game with a zoomed out camera which is why it looks different to Metroid which has a closer camera and allows more detail to be shown on Samus's design.
here's a picture of the 2D sidescrolling sections which are very comparable to samus return's general presentation

still has a cartoony, super deformed style in contrast to samus returns more "realistic" style
>The same material for the new Link's Awakening, including the art book, show nothing but the Funko Pop design
that's a blatant lie, they kept the contrast between the more realistic anime look in the opening and ending cutscenes and the more stylized in game graphics, you admitted as much yourself you can't even keep track of your own arguments

on top of that one of the key arts used for promotion shows this more realistic link and koholint island, so yeah you're full of shit again

It's not really, people can go ahead and look at the box art of the new game themselves. It's not a big secret. The new game was designed to look chibi. The old game was low detail due to technical limitations. If you honestly disagree with this I can't continue because you aren't a rational person.

DENIAL

I'll never play the GB version ever again. There's no going back.

and TW3 is on the Switch

It remains to be seen whether it's censored or not. Though the corpses on the hanging tree were censored in the Direct trailer so I'm not optimistic

Sure, and all the violence in the Hotline Miami ports is all gone, the trailer didn't show it after all

It was based, the wind fish let Marin go free

Hotline Miami is nothing without its violence but the sex scenes in TW3 are superfluous and easily removed. We'll find out in a month anyway

And what will you do if its all intact an uncensored?

Nothing, it doesn't affect me in the slightest. The argument made was that titties in a console game grants it an automatic AO rating, which I proved false.

no d pad support, shit fps, game looks way too fucking shiny, no volume controls, or any option to turn off dithering and all the bullshit motion blur.

Didn't you describe it as a 20 year old classic, one of the best games of all time? So either they're the same game, an outstanding beacon of quality, or this new one is a magical new super exclusive that leaves the old one in the dust. It shouldn't matter which one I play because both are so high quality, so the real difference is whether or not I want to pay release price for new features and graphics.

Not high, but if there's enough fan demand it can happen. MM3D took a while but eventually came to fruition with fan persistence.

Both duds shat out with no marketing whatsoever. Nintendo knew what they were doing

>duds

Snoynegro still seething, i see.

As someone who has never played MM before and is looking to at some point in the near future, I almost considered the 3DS remake, but after finding out about all these issues the remake brought, I'm glad I didn't. The changes sound like they would hinder my enjoyment of the game. Plus, the old N64 version's graphics just have some nice charm to them.

I think the new art style does a great job of making the world feel bigger, even simple things like clearly showing differences in terrain height where everything looked flat in the original. It reminds me of how ALBW looked with the 3D turned on, like you're walking through a big, believable diorama.

They did a great job with the most important scenes, but if any 1 scene fell flat for me so far, it's Manbo's Mambo. I was disappointed that they didn't include the OH!

Music is fantastic, but the weakest part of the game is the sound effects. The ambient noise is incredible but pretty much all of the actual sound effects are weaker than the original.

Good shit overall, a really nice remake of one of my top 3 Zelda games

>The old game was low detail due to technical limitations.

Original was a chibi-style in-game. The photographs prove it. They could have used the same realistic proportions as the intro and ending cutscenes, but they deliberately used the same chibi proportions as the in-game sprites.

Lots of dumb worthless complaints ITT, but let's talk about how they randomly decided to pad the game out with way more pieces of heart and seashells. You can't walk 10 feet in any direction without tripping over one or the other

There's that one review on Youtube where the guy showcases the changes between the original and the remake, and I've seen enough to make up my own mind on the matter. I think the original looks like it'd be more fun to play.

it works

No.

But oddly enough you can still call him from the phone guys house.

It's actually pretty damn great.

>I think the original looks like it'd be more fun to play.
Not with that abysmal item management. Putting aside stuff like graphics, the gameplay is objectively better.

Its ok dude, the only important thing is to have fun.

Get the Blue Tunic or get gud. The game is pretty easy and gets easier as you go along. With the rub potion, the fairy bottles and additional heart containers this version is much easier than the original.

It's the definitive version of the game and no amount of desperate attention seeking from fellow internet misanthropes is going to change that.

only the price is bad
the game is great

Yeah, what's with that? Deponia on Switch is twice as expensive as it is on any other platform, and that's ignoring the fact it goes on sale on those other platforms fairly often.

Archaic game design, can't do much about it. It is what it is. Really, the only old game design element from the N64 days that usually annoys me was the camera. It's one reason why I can barely tolerate SM64 years later, that camera fights me the entire time.

what’s it like not having disposable income of over sixty dollars?

they ruined the music

I was kinda baffled, when some news site reported the game was sold early, but no big sites had any leaks like "OMG there's a new boss" or "WTF there's a secret new ending!"
Is it literally just Link's Awakening DX + 3D graphics + Mini Zelda Maker?

Jesus, I love nintendo but they went full yoshi world retard with the music.

Interesting. Thanks for the info.

Because $60 for a reskinned gameboy game is absurd

it's ear-grating and not funny. the game is unplayable with sound. they butchered every single track and most of the sound effects too

10 hours on it and is a blast, never played the original so it feels so fresh and awesome.

>but adaptation of that one to this one is remarkably plain
Looks really beautiful, like a diorama on your hands or something like that. Youtube don´t make it justice.

Is there an argument here?

Original was stilized because chibi is popular in japan. Also is a top view game, of course it would look in that way.
When Marin runs to link in the opening she is stylized too.
Art direction and visual choices. Zelda was always stylized

SOUL vs SOULLESS

>game is short as fuck
Zelda games was never about go from A to B, people usually fuck around and backtrack in order to see what they still didn´t discovered in a room or what they can do to zolve a puzzle. The only way you do a 5 hour run is if you already beat the game or follow a walkthrough, know what to do next and go straight forward
>the remake is even more easier than the orginal
Hero mode want to talk with you.

Would have preferred an aesthetic closer to the Nintendoland minigames. But I guess they wanted this to have a plastic toy kind of look. I've enjoyed it so far but god damn I wish the walking speed could be increased.

>didn't play the original

they fucked up the fast and tense middle part and the rest is overly clangy

GB version had the excuse of hardware limitations but still managed to create an impressive soundtrack with tons of fan favorite songs. Switch version has no excuse yet they chose to compose the OST with toy instruments

So far im enjoying it, i think the artstyle is cute, the music is great and this is probs the zepda game i hold dearest to my heart so its fun to go through it again. I agree with the complaints over the framerate and I also think Hero mode was kinda an afterthought, so far i dont find it all that challenging, just kinda annoying. All in all im having enough fun i think ill try and 100% it

I loved the remixes, especially that one.

And here you are, fucking traumatised by the game. Just like you are with Nintendo in general. What a sad pathetic loser you are. And Nintendo just keeps on winning.

In literally every aspect. Story, gameplay, art style.

Why couldn't they have at least continued with the ALBW art style?

You have respectable taste user.

Gotta love how dungeon music has WAY more effort in its music than anything else.

Ambient Occlusion, Blur, Bloom, DOF. Fucks everything up the ass, especially the framerate.

The dungeon design is utter trash, but the soundtrack and ending are based.

You can find at least one person that hates anything. I don't think the majority hate ALBW's artstyle.

At the very least, I don't think you'll find many people who say that the LA artstyle is superior to ALBW. Besides maybe literal toddlers.

No.

Yes it's the worst game ever created and anyone who says otherwise is a nintendo shill

This.

Ask me how I know you're a democrat

I think you'd be surprised, user, if you looked a bit further afield from Yea Forums.

It's easy to find all the seashells once you get the seashell finder.

Finished it twice, good remake. I had my fun. Albeit too easy just like the original; hero mode is also only "hard" until you finish the second dungeon, afterward it's trivial.
Still too expensive. I took it extremely slow and still took only about 20~25 hours to 100% it twice. 40$ would have been ideal.
If it only weren't for those frame rate issues, it would be great.

Oracles when?

Weird that the dungeons still have screen transitions from room to room but the overworld is continuous, especially when the overworld's frame rate suffers for it.

Do you still get an alternative ending depending on whether or not you die during the game? Are there any big changes other than the photographer being replaced with the dungeon maker?

How do you know I'm a democrat?

hopefully they release them as a bundle but knowing nintendo they'll nickle and dime people into buying both games at full price

Reminder links awakening sold more than Mario Maker did day 1. Huge success incoming!

Bummer. I don't know if I want to revisit an easy game I've beaten countless times since age 7 when I still have the black and white game. Even the decent Samus Returns is basically an entirely new game with a M2 skin.

They'll probably do them like the new Pokemon games. It could be a lot of fun though.

Haven’t Sony fans been paying like 10 times for RE4 with an HD texture pack at this point? Switch + PC is legitimately coverage of like 95% of all the quality titles out there
I will be playing death stranding with a few buddies of mine though

I’m pretty sure it has to do with familiarity being comfortable and change taking effort to appreciate or even participate in. It’s a way to qualify personal attachment into criteria. I agree that there are vague senses of soul vs soulless (look at the Rachet and clank series and its remake), but it’s very imprecise and sort of meaningless way to actually talk about games, since 9 times out of 10 it’s nostalgia, personal bias, and an unwillingness to grapple with the new.
Unironically both versions are great. If you didn’t like the remake, that’s fine, but don’t extend it into some mangling of “objectivity.”

>but don’t extend it into some mangling of “objectivity.”
The fuck does this even mean?

Yes, you get the additional scene. The biggest change is the replace of the photographer as you said and they also added 3 bottles to the game, so you can carry faeries around. Secret Medicine was replaced by some sort of cream, has the same effect though.

Anyway, personally, I think the dungeon maker is the worst thing in the game and locking shells, heart pieces, and a bottle behind it was the worse move ever. I was just wishing it to end.

It really shouldn't even be considered a remake, just a graphical overhaul of the original. As a game though it's fine, most people can't stand the artstyle but other than it has no major flaws, although I've been seeing talk of major framerate issues but I personally haven't experienced them. I'm still playing through the game though, so far my two main problems with it are the fact that hero mode is practically invalidated by retries, and some puzzles/rooms seem to have been made a tiny bit easier. Not surprising considering how Nintendo loves to casualize their old games, and it could've been worse.

tl;dr it's literally the same game as the original except with a shiny (literally) new coat of paint and slightly easier.

>Dude it's not that bad xddd

Retard

People generally don’t use the word objective in a correct or meaningful way. An objective review of a game states facts about its estimated runtime, its back of the box feature list, its engine, etc - but the “review” is critically missing because any review or criticism of media is based on opinions supported by fact. People think if you make an “objective review” or at least label your review as such, it operates on some higher level, but to be able to say universally true statements, you give up the power to actually express anything about the game - and not to mention, their gripes weren’t objective in the first place
So basically people will say “X bad, Y different so bad, I didn’t like Z - the game is objectively worse for everyone or at least Yea Forums“ as though such a statement actually holds water

I'm glad you have good taste and will play the original, the female is a goddamn disaster.

It’s more or less a 1-1 translation of the game into a map not divided up into screens. The music is more or less the same tunes with different arrangements. It’d be super cool if they gave out the original on the game cartridge though

nah, is pretty cool and enjoyable but the price maybe should be lower. I just sell Yoshi's Crafted and for me was like 30 bucks, at that price is great as fuck.

Why are you samefagging and falseflagging about nothing? If this is the extent people will go to just to defend LA, then the strawpoll really does mean nothing.

So you're saying they took the original and made it again, almost like they remade it or something

They also increased the amount of shells (50) and heart pieces (32). And added a radar for shells after you find the first 15.
And pic related made me rage. So yeah, if I were to review it, it would get a minus for the dungeon maker, pic related, and frame rate issues.

If that's all it took for a game considered a remake, then devs could just scrap the source code and assets of their games and rebuild the exact same shit from scratch, and that's a remake. You and I both know that's not how it works, the term remake is never used by its literal definition in this industry.

Are you retarded? There's so many games coming out for the Switch that I have to pick and choose which I want to get first.

This is a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. People either expect a 1:1 remake with better graphics, or a completely different game like the people who wanted it to be like BotW. Can't please everyone.

It's fine. It's a charming game.

That game came out like 6 years ago, my guy

It’s just massively overpriced
A McDonald’s cheeseburger tastes great for $1, but your opinion of that cheeseburger would probably change if they charged you $20 for it instead

I've never actually played LA, is this an acceptable replacement for the original?

Yes. Anyone saying otherwise is just a massive nostalgiafag bitching.

i'm probably going to wait and get it used. still have to finish Astral Chain and get all 999 Moons in Odyssey

Odyssey isn't mean to be 100%ed. It's a speedrunning game.

ill let you of the hook because it's sunday and it's early, but please think before you hit the post button

Of course its NOT THAT bad. Just read the (journalist) reviews, almost all reviews are very positive. Its kinda like that telephone game, where people spout things they hear and suddenly Yea Forums is full of gross exaggerations like "SICKENING FRAME RATE DROPS VERY 10 SECONDS" and "4 HOUR GAME SHOULD BE $30" and "SHIT MUSIC AND TERRIBLE ARTSTYLE" which are wholly untrue and spread by people who've very likely never played it.

The swamp is the only area with consistent framerate drops, and you're there for like 60 seconds the entire game?

Most people like the art style. You just have bad taste. The music is good and dialogue is EXACTLY the same as the original, it IS 1:1 by the way. Why would they change it?

Thats pretty typical traditional Zelda format. I agree, its a little annoying, but I also wasn't a big fan of the nonlinear BOTW either that got very boring when you realized there was nothing special ever. At least this game has a well defined sequence of events.

The overworld was designed to limit what you could see at one time, and the blur is intended to replicate that.

No, the rule of thumb is that remakes never adhere to the original vision and the same is true here. At the very least, play both and make your own decision.

>journalist reviews
fuck off

>can buy Crash and Spyro remakes bundled together for $40
>6 whole fucking games
>Link's Awakening is $60

Crash and Spyro are shit games

So is this game what's your point, crackhead?

>remakes never adhere to the original vision
Not only does it adhere to the original version, it perfectly subverts the player's expectations of it. It's also the best remake of any vidya ever.

>LA

yikes, With that taste no wonder you would rather pay for actual shit. It's a free market, nobody put a gun on Activision head to price their shit games that low.

To those who are actually playing the game and not bitching about it: is there anything for sub 25?
I think it's possible but I don't want to bother going through this pain if there's no reward.

Sweetie you’re thinking of BOTW but this is a close second

the game is very fun and the artstyle looks great but ive gotten stuck three times, first time was for skipping text so i need to pay attention but second and third time i coudlnt figure out the puzzles so i consult a walkthrough on youtube

Just which puzzle would require a guide in this game? Honestly curious.

underage detected

I can't tell if you're being serious or not.

i thought certain objects can only be pushed one way and on to certain surfaces. and one tricky enemy got me because i didnt test all method to deal with him and thought maybe i didnt have the right item to engage yet

It's cringe and soi to copypaste an old gameboy game 1:1 but with plastic toys aesthetics instead of completly updating the setting to modern technology.

That is chibi not funko.

In a world of cinematic bullshit and games filled with fetch quests and retarded/boring filler, this feels so fucking fresh, I've been having a blast for the last few days, I wish companies would still make games like this.

Because it's clearly about how poor they are after all not not about the actual value of the game which is below its price.

Go play ALBW.

Yeah and the remake doesn't look like funko.

“In plain words: The more dollars in one’s bank account, the less valuable each individual dollar seems to be. To the heir of a Middle Eastern kingdom, 10,000+ dollars for the super deluxe version of After Burner Climax will doubtless seem like chump change, whilst the Darfur refugee, who barely managed to scrape together the Sudanese pound equivalent of five bucks by scavenging the corpses of his fellow villagers after they were massacred by rampaging bandits, would no doubt balk at the thought of spending it all to download Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved.”

How does it feel to have your own poll backfire on you so hard?

Yes it does you inbred, ask your wrangler to confirm for you.

Hard to say, probably depends on how well Link's Awakening sells and what sort of contract Nintendo had with Capcom on them and if they want Grezzo to do them or if Capcom would want to do it (I can see Grezzo working on other Zelda ports though). It wouldn't surprise me if they do more with the engine though.

We aren't, thats the point, it was never supposed to look grimmdark.

Not true, it's there to emulate the image of a macro lens, because the art design of the game is about the map being a tiny plastic diorama and you/the dreamer zooming into it to watch how the figures move around in it

It doesn't feel like anything since I realized you can just use a vpn and rig it. I wouldn't put it past the same people who would falseflag just for attention either.

You're autistic as fuck if the picture being a slightly different pose is that much of a problem

The original can be emulated in any toaster, but if you got a switch and the cash to spare it would be retarded to not play the remake, it's basically the same game but with polygons instead of sprites

You're autistic as fuck if you can't see how homogeneous the remake is compared to the original.

How does it subvert shit?

>every switch game has to look like BOTW does!
The very same people that bitch about every PS exclusive being a brown filtered over the shoulder TPS

I already explained why and you completely ignored everything so why did you even bother replying?

Rearranged enemy and item placements.

every zelda title, every single one, has had both dark and cute aspects.

you can't just ignore somone's point with buzzwords. those skeletons look kind of goofy even. the point is the devs had an opportunity to make the games more dynamic but instead they did a 1:1 port

>It's also the best remake of any vidya ever.

No, Resident Evil 2 is.

Funkos have bigger heads, zero mouths and no expressions, if anything LA is twice as detailed as the funko pops are

>I'm not autistic you are!
Because you still list "slightly different Peach photo" as a mayor problem that instantly drops points from the game total score, you either have OCD or just exagerating for the sake of it

Outside of the dream yes, both original and remake are doing the same style difference between the real world and dream world
Real world is anime
Dream world is chibi

>strawman
As expected.

Because it's a minus point, whether you like it or not. A 1 to 1 remake is supposed to be a 1 to 1 remake and if they can't even bother reproducing that photo in the new art style but are actually some lazy shits that rotated some older official art, then yes, it's a minus point.
The point is, that it's not slightly different, but 100% zero effort and nothing like the original. The only common point is that it's Peach.

Funkos doesn't even have mouths, they have uniformed soft squared heads, most times not even eyebrows. The remake's chibi style is more equivalent to Charlie Brown and Calvin & Hobbs than Funkos by a mile.

>cheeky easter egg that's on the screen for just one frame of the whole game, but if you dare to slightly change that the whole experience is ruined!
