What games do you wish to be remastered?

Gothic 1 & 2 for sure. Just getting them to run on Windows 10 is a big hassle, and then they look like shit because they weren't made for 16:9 monitors.

If you don't care about little problems fine, I do, as i would with music when the timing doesn't work quite right, or when are strange spots in a picture. Or when, like XCOM2 GoG edition, it kills your savegame when a base attack happens... wooo

on a sidenode: SD3 will actual get a PC release... hopefully you can switch to the old graphics as squares superdeformed style is annoying. But even then it's nice to see the game released in west after 22 years.

Xcom2 is a sequel to the series and should be considered a Reboot. SD3 is a Remake. Remakes should be considered new games.

Some "remastered" games should be called Remakes, and ignorantly, unintentionally or purposely misnamed.

Just saying...

i talk about xcom TFTD also known in oldschool circles as xcom2, not the new firaxis game. It was an example of quasifunctioning oldschool game emulated by dosbox that are "fine" in grepmans opinion.
And of course SD3 will be a remake. I don't see new releases for the SNES around here. But as the pressconference suggested, there will be no change to story or mechanics, so you can see it as a remasterd version for a different plattform.

I don't call Xcom TFTD Xcom 2, what gives? That is not a thing. Otherwise you would have Xcom 2, 3, 4 and 5. X-Com: UFO Defense was the masterpiece and that success kinda ruin them. Their developers underappreciated their own masterpiece. They spent years trying to top X-COM, their missions devolved into failures wildly with the brand, mismanaging it into the ground.

Seiken Densetsu 3 is now officially known as Trials of Mana. Otherwise called Secret of Mana 2 in your so called oldschool circles. I don't call it Secret of Mana 2 either... Opt to call it Seiken Densetsu 3. Some of those oldschool circles can't prononuce it properly and there are those that can, you see...

The Snes version of the game is released as collectiion of mana games on Nintendo switch. There is significant change to the mechanics to Trials of Mana Remake. Combat happens on real time, on snes version there is a delay timer between your attacks, so you can't just spam attacks. You can probably chain your attacks on the remake. There is a strong and weak attack. You can jump or do a dodge roll. None of those existed on original Snes version. If you tell me, there will be no change to the mechanics, you are freaking bullshitting. What we know about the game is very limited, I wouldn't be surprised if there are more changes.

People who don't know the difference between remastered, remakes, reboot aren't worth their salt. Don't mix them up!

Oh but it is. Nobody said: Hey today i played xcom terror from the deep. You just playing the xcom 2 or the second xcom. But after the commercial failure of xcom 3 (apocalypse for those people that thought this was not a thing) nobody paid any attention to the followups. And why do you tell things I neither asked nor have anything to do with the topic? Wanna look important?

How cute. Pat yourself on the back, looking that childish is kinda hard.

Combat always happened on realtime wtf. A small timer is also always part of the package. Visual animation etc. Actually hitting and movement takes time... And you could of course chain attacks (which killed you quite fast on bossfights :/ ) Also each character had a strong and weaker attack. Good to know you never played the game.

Back when i read the news nothing substantial was known so I thought the PC SD3 would be like the FF or SoM remakes on steam. Meaning new sprites, new resolution, higher quality in music but no actual change in gameplay, viewpoint or any game mechanics, just bugfixes(and strangely trainers...) Square didn't do anything for the other games so why now? But it seems the are making a full 3D game with third person viewpoint out of it.

It is a set of works that are connected, MicroProse did not serialize it. Some games are simply not serialized. It is something you did.

Using words such as Cute and childish are such "Low Effort Posting".

You are so adorable, full of juvenile charm.

It is important back in the days of fan translation where people called it different names. It decide the name that appear on the screen. One version has the word "Seiken Densetsu 3" on the title screen and another version have "Secret of Mana 2". Since you didn't call it SOM2, I know which version you are probably playing. The schism is between more original text or more localized text. Localization & Translation Are Not The Same.

No. Not really. Seiken Densetsu 3 has time stop mechanics. Square Enix seem to want to move away from more sluggish gameplay to more actiony gameplay. Snes version has normal attack and TECH attack. Duran is using weak attack that can be chain into triple slashing attack, a charged strong attack and Time stop Animation Tech attack in the remake. Go watch the Trial of Mana remake gameplay demo.

How do you know I never played the game? My good man, I am sure you know that better than I do.

Did you watch FF7 remake gameplay demo? Lots of actiony gameplay right there. It is a remake, remakes can have many changes to the game.

I would like to see remastered games of my youth

So before you used "High effort Posting" before to say the same thing. That IS cute. Still nobody asked background stories. But I don't really care, sorry making you think I meant the new xcom2 and so giving you the incense to but your remake/remaster etc. on this thread.

there was another translation not from Corlett? I'm not talking about now, i'm talking about 15< years ago. And again you add some obvious fact nobody cares about^^

Ah you mean the spells and special skills. Yeah their animation froze the battlefield. Also opening the skills menue. There is no way around it in these types of games. More modern games come up with some slow motion but thats it.(was ME1 the first with this? kinda long ago)
And yeah duran... there are others, Lise could trigger her stronger combo finisher without a chain. Kevin could do it too. hawkeye needed the chain. there was still a strong/weak attack in the original.

Because you don't really know about these things i came to think you never actually played the game.

Obviously you don't care. I didn't give background stories for just your benefits, there are other readers on the forum. People can be generally ignorant, meaning that they are uneducated and lacking in sophistication. If You are unconcerned about your own lack of knowledge and information awareness, please be considerate of others who does.

If you want to maintain a conversation and keep it going, you need a certain level of amiability. Considering treating people decently and with respect. Not "You're cute". It would be considered condescending and snobbish.

It is ok for me to do so. I am patronizing in a way that they usually can't resist the urge of replying. Not replying would frustrated or infuriated them.

Kevin and Hawkeye has "Double Attack" allowing them to attack twice in a single attack animation. It is not a combo or chain.

PS: That's Lise TECH Attack. It is an "INSTANT CAST" attack. TECH attack does not need to be in ordered sequence, in other word not a chain. It can be done independently, you just have to fill up your tech bar .

I am more convinced you never actually played the game or is an SD3 amateur.
