I believe this will mostly affects games which were lacking in technology.

I'd personally LOVE to see The Sims 1 or The Sims 2 re-released with performance and resolution upgrades, and, most importantly, made to be open world. Since they're older, I believe they could very easily render the entire map like The Sims 3, but with the charm of TS1 or TS2.

I cannot think of other games, since most games I see as adequate, whereas TS1 and TS2 were bound by system performance during their respective times.

Fallout 1, in the style of Wasteland 2 & 3. With the animated talking characters similar to WL3. Include intended content for Fallout that was cut like some of the gangs, and side quests.

Rework certain skills like gambling to make it more integrated into the game; more effective at lower levels and less totally overpowered at high levels.

Revamp companions to make them more controllable. Selectable friendly fire. Ability to make companions wait in locations.

A friend and I were talking today that we’d spend full price for a Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War Soulstorm remaster/remake. It was a great game that still has a lot of potential both for gamers and for the company developing it. They could even call it something cool like the Imperium Edition or something!

I’ve also always said that they could approach it in a similar way to how Total War: Warhammer develops DLC for their factions. Quick question for WH:40K fans: if they offered a dlc for your specific Space Marine chapter or Ork Warband or DIRTY HERETIC, would you buy it? I know I would buy a Space Wolves chapter DLC that enabled their unique mechanics and units. It’s an untapped goldmine in my opinion and also caters to people who want to play the game with their own army units.

Rayman 2: the great escape and Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc were my absolute favourite games when I was younger. The original trilogy of Spyro as well, but those have amazingly been remastered a few years ago.

No one lives forever. Though the originals are still very much playable, only the graphics are outdated.

Phantasy Star.

For an 4mb 8bit rpg, it had an amazing story and so much potential held back only by the tech of it's time.

Pong. They could flesh out the storyline a little more.

Vagrant Story

Not sure if it would become a hit, but I’d buy it.

I'd love to see a remake/remaster of Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly where they fix the problems people seems to have had with it that I never noticed.

I'd love to have a modern remake/remaster of it playable on my switch, so I could say I have the reignited trilogy and this on it. That or the trilogy on switch and this one on PC. Especially since I used to absolutely love it back in the day.

KKnD (Krush Kill and Destroy)

I just loved building waaaaaaay to big of an army and just cleaning the map.

[–] Ghostalmedia 5 points 1 year ago

I’d love for Halo CE to be done again. That remaster fucked up the art style.

[–] TORFdot0 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

No remasters. Instead build in backwards compatibility so gamers can still play their original games.

I don’t care for remasters, I’d rather play something new. Remakes and remasters are cash grabs in my opinion. Same goes for remakes and reboots in movies too

Drakan: Order of the Flame

Classic RPG adventure with the player controlling both a medieval Laura Croft and her bus sized dragon mount. I spent so many hours getting lost in this awesome world as a boy.

The original mercenaries from PS2. If we had a fully destructible environment with today's graphics god it would be glorious. If they could throw some co op in there. Man it would be great.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Twisted Metal but the originals from PS1 era.

Fallout 2, halo 1, fable, all I can think of at the moment.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

Both fallout 1 and 2 could do with a good remake in a proper 3d engine

Wasn't there a Shadow of the Colossus remaster a few years ago?
