It's also a remaster of a game that aged very well in my opinion and didn't really need a facelift.

I genuinely don't understand it, the game itself is gorgeous.

100%

So many people defending this, is insanity. $10 is still $10, which I'll save to put into a different game.

See, I used to be against remasters and remakes too but nowadays it’s like, yeah, whatever. Either I already have played the game and don’t care about a remaster or don’t care about said game or will play it in a few years at which point the remaster will come in handy.

If this was released halfway through the PS6 life I wouldn't have complained. Releasing it now is just greedy and lazy.

Sony still releasing games on PS4. Still remasters PS4 game.

I'm on the side that a remaster of a PS4 gen game dumb, but HZD was always the butt of the joke in regard to those awful generic bobblehead animations during every single dialog. It was laughably bad. With the reveal trailer, it does make a pretty big difference. Everything else? Not so much.

If this had been a PC game all along, these animation overhaul would have been a patch of the original game, but since the trailer insists that they re-recorded all motion captures for the dialogs of the whole game, they get to sell it full price again.

HFW was so much worse for conversation animations.
