The unhinged opinions of Mr. House’s alter ego. | I’m at the gym

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

@Aeon0000 @landon_va I beat the remake dude, the entire setting is a hazy green “dark” background. The 3DS remake did ruin the atmosphere, it was one of the primary critiques when it was released. The original did not have a giant glowing tail, what are you talking about

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

The absolute mess they made of the final fight is indefensible. Hardly a “nitpick” as discourse has been saying. Stripped of the atmosphere, violence and cinematography of the original, turned into a stilted spectacle robbed of its gravitas and finality.

Now that the remake's been out for a week, can we talk about how they've ruined this scene? It's significantly less dynamic and satisfying than the original thanks to a combination of censorship and inferior cinematography.

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

On that note I think I’m done with remake discourse. I’ve said what I wanted to and you can’t make every person “get it”. It’s unfortunate but most people love shiny graphics and spectacle above all else and AAA knows this. Either you see it or you don’t.

@Georjoporjo @PaintedTiban Tapping a button while a kaleidoscope of fun colors come out of Ganon? The tone isn’t the brutal slaying of an evil being, its anime bright colors spectacle. Which is fine if you like that kind of thing, but it’s significantly toned down in terms of violence and cinematography

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

@landon_va Visual fidelity is not art direction and it does not replace well thought out cinematography and tone/atmosphere. The remake is going for spectacle, which is fine, but it is also more cartoony in its thematic execution and safe. The extra attack moves are fine

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

@PaintedTiban Did you play the original? The final sequence was link slashing and stabbing Ganon as cartoon blood came out and sent him into a screeching, flailing frenzy to a backdrop of thunder and darkness. Remake is safe “epic” spectacle

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

@landon_va >glowing keyjangle weak points

>censored final attacks/stab, completely removed the flailing, screeching rampage.

>no thunderstorm, just generic hazy green background

>voice acting completely breaks the tone

Outside of QOL what was improved besides “le heckin graphics”?

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

Voice acting and animation from 20 years ago being incomprehensibly better than anything we have now is just another example of all the ways our culture has silently regressed.

Malon’s character model and in game interactions (along with Saria and Sheik) are one of the objectively good wins for the remake. Makes you wonder why they didn’t let the cracked character designer responsible get a hold of everyone else.

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

Nintendo fanboys frothing at the mouth in the comments over completely reasonable criticisms of the remake perfectly encapsulates this issue with “modern gaming”. Video game discourse will remain incoherent and retarded as long as this continues

[Caleb @NessMudkip]

Finished Ocarina remake. Pretty conflicted overall. I think this is a death by a thousand cuts situation honestly. There are too many little things that I loved about the original game that have been lost here.

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

Somehow still better than the highly Americanized, breathy voice acting of Matt Mercer

[daniel @nullport_]

I couldn't afford a Switch 2 so I modded the N64 Ocarina of Time to be more like a modern AAA game. It's fully voice-acted.

It's a real and you can try it out now, link in the replies.

A lot of contemporary politics can be explained by the fact that the median voter has exactly zero concepts of what the future is.

Greg Abbott and Texas Republicans have been hoarding so much money in the state’s Rainy Day Fund that our new Governor elect, Gina Hinojosa, is proposing to send $1,500 checks to every Texas household.

Your vote matters.

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

Remake discourse is like that tweet about leftists pretending to not understand the argument. It’s not one little thing being omitted. It’s the 50 little things being removed, sanded down and streamlined that add up to a lot of the charm and whimsy being lost.

guy who played his first n64 game a day ago: UMM WHY DOESNT MY SWORD BOUNCE OFF THE HECKIN ROCK I CANT GET IMMERSED SIGH THIS IS WHY I HATE REMAKE CULTURE

This is the aura and confidence of old America. We must resurrect its soul

Honestly if they sent a honeypot after me she’d probably fall in love with me and betray China

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

If you’re not getting honeypotted by the CCP you aren’t working hard enough.

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

Remake enjoyers aren’t human and deserve to be relegated a Sisyphean prison of their own twisted desires

[IJ @IJReviewss]

Remake haters are genuinely up there with flat earthers in terms of how stubborn they are with their beliefs

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

A huge problem with remakes is the changes made are often incoherent and clash with the established game. Modern developers don’t understand the source material or care to learn why certain details were included to begin with. You’re left with empty calories

[Final Lychee @FinalLychee]

Just struck me, if the draw bridge is always down, then what is the point of learning the Sun's Song?

[Mr. House @MohaveRythms]

It’s a matter a national security that these guys get state issued baddies. Of all the welfare we waste money on, supplying the Jensen’s of the country with an enthusiastic mid would have an insane ROI.

The thing about MM is that it thankfully doesn’t have enough cultural clout to be remade. I pray it won’t be drug through the humiliation ritual Ocarina of Time is currently enduring. Nintendo would sodomize this masterpiece in a full remake scenario.
