Is preferring the Bluepoint remake of Demon's Souls the perfect litmus test in determining whether or not someone has shit taste/a shallow interest in videogames? This is addressed at people who have obviously actually played the original and understand the comparison.
>technically is worse, has more bugs >ui looks worse >character designs look worse >atmosphere is worse >art direction is worse >sound track is worse >visually looks far more impressive >just in general completely and utterly shits on the artists original intent, but it looks better graphically (hardly a fair comparison in reality because you're comparing something made in 2009 to 2019, but demon's souls didnt exactly look good for the time period anyway)
Knowing all of this and still preferring the remake just without a shadow of a doubt proves to me that you have double digit IQ.
>technically is worse, has more bugs this part I do not get. It's a fucking remake how does it have MORE bugs?
Ethan Cox
not only is the Bluepoint remake of Demon Souls superior to the original, so is the Bluepoint remake of Shadow of the Colossus.
Christian Hill
Why? Other than >muh graphix
Easton Murphy
it doesn't. He is literally making this up on the spot. It's not even a usual meme lie that most video games have where the haters repeat a consistent fallacy. Nobody claimed it was buggier than the original game until literally 5 minutes ago.
Elijah White
Likely the preserved source code is for an earlier version and Bluepoint didn't bother to debug it.
Austin Powell
You're trolling but I genuinely do think the SOTC remake is good.
Isaac Parker
>all the dupe bugs still exist >far easier to clip out of bounds and exploit level geometry >infamous coin bug that somehow made it through all levels of testing
Dylan Campbell
I worded my post in a way to elicit a response, yes, but that is my unironic belief as well. Post-irony is the best space to live in. Authentically be yourself in a way that is intentionally offensive to those who would oppose you. Letting them know, not only are they wrong, but that you do not care for or value their judgement, is based beyond belief.
Benjamin Robinson
Back in the 90s we used to just call that being a cunt. Not knocking it, but you didn't invent anything.
Andrew Jones
>it has the same bugs as the original >it has more bugs than the original pick one.
Tyler Morris
I'm just having fun you stupid faggot
Nathan Turner
I think all the Bluepoint games seem better until you actually compare both games side by side and then you realize just how much of the remake is actually worse once you go beneath the surface. SoTC is less egregious of an example than DeS, but the most notable issues are with the animation, volumetric fog, and lighting.
Caleb Cook
So am I, don't be so touchy cunt.
Jaxson Allen
The original soundtrack was so good. Especially the more pure instrumental boss music.
Fucking blue point shit was generic fantasy music found in any game
Kevin Nelson
>then you realize just how much of the remake is actually worse once you go beneath the surface nope. Unironically this doesn't happen. The more in-depth you go the better BP remakes look. It's only when someone posts a meme like the gargoyles or one cherry-picked boss that, on the surface, it looks like the BP remake totally missed the mark. But when you view it as a full package and how cohesive it's design is, the better it looks and the one or two elements that at first appeared like they didn't belong become tolerable, if not outright preferable.
Ryan Evans
No, it's loving Witcher 3. Demons souls isnt very relevant
Alexander Powell
You know I don't think I ever got an answer, did running firestorm work in the remake?
Lincoln Wright
>literally stockholm syndroming yourself into liking an inferior product one way to look at it I guess
James Ward
>The original soundtrack was so good.
it really wasn't. really amateurish
Jason Nguyen
original looks good only on crt because low fps doesnt affect motion clarity
Blake Sanders
>cherry picked I dunno, when there is literally a completely butchered art asset in every single direction you look it becomes pretty hard to forget the distinction.
Hudson Long
>original looks good only on crt because low fps doesnt affect motion clarity
wut lol
Nicholas Murphy
original sotc. ppl who prefer remake are newfags
John Bell
Bluepoint doesn't know anything about art direction. And the people impressed with their remakes either didn't play the originals or are ignorant/stupid enough to rate new thing better than original design.
Tyler Morales
the crt part...doesnt make sense
Evan Cook
It's impressive how badly they fucked up the aesthetics of the remake. It's such a "bigger HAS to be better!" situation.
Nolan Peterson
>in every single direction Nope. You cannot post more than three "butchered" assets in the DS remake. All you can post is some shitty memes that, as explained, only hold up to critcisms when totally isolated from the game world.
Lincoln Smith
No it totally does. Low FPS on a CRT has higher motion resolution than High fps on an LCD. 60fps on a CRT is close to 144hz on an LCD.
Bentley Morales
hahah...dunno where you got this idea man..."motion resolution"
Jayden Rogers
I kinda doubt anyone fell through the ground in the original since I never saw anything like that.
Then you genuinely have bad taste.
James Rogers
are you fucking retarded? motion resolution absolutely is a real thing. It's how many lines can be seen when using a standardized test pattern. Outside of video games this is a real thing in the broadcasting industry. Televisions are measured by their motion response when using black frame insertion to mimick CRTs motion clarity and they do this by recording a literal measurement of motion resolution. It's a scientific measurement just like pixel resolution.
Jack Ward
The Bluepoint remake is why I just don't take videogames seriously as an artistic medium and why I don't bother arguing with people about it.
In what other industry would it be acceptable to take an original product, completely butcher the original design intent, and expect people to like it? It is literally the Original Trilogy remaster tier where Lucas just threw a ton of garbage CGI and weird garbage into the original movies and released it, but visually it technically LOOKS better. People rightfully called that complete shit because it completely undermined the original.
You make the same argument for Bluepoint and people will just call you a retard >bro you just hate new games and love old ones >it looks way better, why are you nitpicking about that shit? >who cares bro it is more accessible to people now so they can experience it (how the fuck is this a measure of quality?)
The same people who would laugh in your fucking face if you preferred the butchered remake of the original trilogy, or literally any piece of art in any other medium that achieved the same level of negligence, just support rampant garbage consumerism because of muh graphics.
I just don't take this shit seriously and I hate this industry. As much as Sony pushes for this "videogames are art!" thing they really clearly do not give a fuck when it comes to Bluepoint and what they do.
you don't understand how what you're talking about applies and are making up concepts that don't exist
you can't get "motion resolution" that doesn't exist out of a game. absurd concept
Sebastian Diaz
yes you absolutely can. Objects in motion will have blur. The less blur they have, the more motion resolution they have. I am not making it up and neither is CRT user.
Jackson Butler
To the average consumer, more technically impressive on the surface level = better in every single medium. Sucks, I know.
you have no clue what you're talking about. you're trying to apply concepts in ways that they don't apply
samefagging from your phone isnt going to help your cause
Chase Edwards
I am not an average consumer and I do take video games seriously as an artistic medium. The remake is better. It's literally the same game but improved. >muh butchered >muh original vision it's not butchered and the original vision is kept intact. You would know this if you spent more time with the game than just some shitty memes posted on Yea Forums.
Andrew Ward
Based anti autist
Michael Young
how does it not apply? Motion is motion. A test pattern and and a video game both move exactly the same way on your screen.
Do you know abut testufo.com? Do you know why it's used by professional monitor reviewers? You are literally insane.
the red flags will never not get me, just missed the mark so badly
Camden Gomez
>Complete overhaul of designs, art style, music, atmosphere >"THE VISION IS INTACT!" Completely, thoroughly delusional.
Benjamin Myers
The remake is objectively worse and you can't take art seriously if you don't just start laughing when you hear the music, sound effect, and voice changes. The remake is literally a joke made by hacks. Fancy graphics don't mean shit.
Aiden Stewart
this has nothing to do with what you're talking about. you're alleging that playing games on a crt somehow makes you able to perceive more motion, which is zoomer crt fetishist bullshit
Kayden Collins
>The remake is better. It's literally the same game but improved. Still waiting for literally anyone in this thread to post a reason why the remake is better other than graphically. Again, it's just demonstrating why it is the perfect litmus test. The only people who like the remake only care about the graphics and have no care about anything else. Which is completely fine, you're free to like what you like, but it is the hobbiest equivalent of preferring capeshit to any other form of cinema.
Brandon Young
it's not a complete overhaul at all. it's not objectively worse and your notions about what is and what isn't art are completely fucking retarded. I am alleging that playing games on a CRT makes you able to percieve objects with less blur when they are in motion when compared to an LCD, which is objectively and scientifically correct
i watched oneyplays play this stuff and the entire game looks like the product of the graphics card industry, i.e looks great technically but all the designs are slapped together by some random artist from conceptart.org because there's no artistic vision behind it. Like, take the weird blue spirit fog coming out of tower knights ankles after you slapped him, you can tell they just picked a new particle effect from the latest library and slapped it on there. It's not bad per se, but it just demonstrates the mentality with which the remake was made.
Logan Hughes
i dont give a fuck about the remake vs original, i want to know about what the fuck crt user and anti-crt user are arguing about
Christopher Scott
>Muh Intact vision If anything, I expected much more and more solid changes from the remake They slapped a fresh coat of paint to a notoriously unfinished game when the project could have at least delivered where the level design was rushed, or the last archstone
anti-crt user somehow doesn't believe that display technology affects motion clarity. He is having a mental breakdown because he is learning about something new for the first time and it's really screwing with his head that he didn't know about it before now.
Jordan Williams
It is objectively worse you shit eater. You're just shitposting.
William Martin
this is all i had to see of this game to know i wasn't gonna buy it
It really makes you think about those games held up as classics like Shadow of the Colossus or Metal Gear Solid, a bunch of the people praising these games don't understand what makes them so good and are only parroting the opinions of people who get it. Like if anyone praises Dark Souls Remastered or the Demon's Souls Remake I just stop taking their opinion seriously, they don't get it and never will.
Adam Martin
every CRT has better motion clarity at the same refresh rate than every LCD.
Justin Ortiz
lmao same >look, free nigger! no thanks keep him
Thomas Thomas
The remake is way better than the original and that's a fact. You guys are just contrarians and Fromsoft fanboys.
Will anons learn this time around?
Camden Watson
>want a remake of demons souls since it came out because i wanted to see the 6th archstone >finally get a announcement of a remake >oh fuck >bluepoint >oh fuck... >see the trailer >.... >doesnt even have the 6th archstone >holy fuck but we get the penetrator armo- >that fucking neck >now we will never EVER get a faithful remake they literally did not do a single thing right
