@dreamhopping1@soonrightaway And secondly, yes, obviously these companies want to reach new audiences and sell to more people. That much is a given. The problem comes with the constant need to rehash and retread old ground but in a "new" experience where the original is replaced with a worse version.
@dreamhopping1@soonrightaway But even those have a tendency to ruin the original artistic vision, which just ties into how little these developers actually care for preserving the original experience. Of course, it's money motivated, so if they can take shortcuts then they will.
@dreamhopping1@soonrightaway Therefore, the argument of "but it's for modern audiences" essentially boils down to polishing the rough edges of anything and everything until it's a homogeneous slop fit for the average consumer. Not everything is for everyone, and that's a good thing.
@dreamhopping1@soonrightaway The people of today who cannot handle N64 or PS1, or hell even PS2 games, are just mindless consumers who want every game to be made with their wishes in mind. They see a shiny new coat of paint with a mandatory checklist of "modern features" and immediately gravitate towards it.
@dreamhopping1@soonrightaway "more accessible for modern gamers" it's LITERALLY already available to play on Switch, and there are source ports for PC too even if they're unofficial. Not everything needs to be """"accessible"""" to the new generation of braindead gamers.
@SugoiLITE Any updates on Shuukura, Yuru Yuri, or Genkai OL? It's been a few months since their supposed leaks, and none of them have any official confirmation.
