...or how to not rage about every new remake and reboot

I love ur podcast and i dont wanna be that guy but nier replicant isnt a remake. Its a remaster that they went above and beyond with. Other than combat, basically everything else plays almost 1:1 as the original except it looks and sounds way better

i'd argue that the "above and beyond" makes it a remake. it totally changes how you do combat, which is 99% of the gameplay

Nothing was actually remade though. The fighting was tweaked to be a lot better, they re recorded the voice actors, added content at the end, and put a new graphics layer over the rest. Its just a really really good remaster

sure, i guess im just saying that if you do that good of a job, i'll consider it a remake lol. i have similar feelings about the HD version of the original REmake. like, yea, that's jsut a remaster but the vastly improved visuals and control - as well as the ability to add mods on PC - make it a hugely different experience to the GC original, to the point of it feeling like a different game entirely. im pretty sure the recent Alan Wake remaster cant really compare to any of that, as its just Hi Res alan wake. thats the distinction, to me
