@soonrightaway Sega is my biggest blindspot by far and that’s ok with me. None of my business

it’s so funny that people are mad at this lol i love the Intellectual Gamer type that’s just instinctually contrarian with everything

@Sonic_Hedgeblog No, because the Sega Saturn sucked and the N64 was way better, and had a lot more enjoyable, playable games.

@fender_belly I’m not sure I’ve ever really been interested in a movie because of a premise. Premise movies are how you get stuff like benjamin button

@loonielila I love when people make miis of the same person because they all look so different but they’re all still accurate in their own ways

@Kazcooledoff And as far as I understand most remakes or remasters or what have you are made with an entirely different set of people, largely groups of people who don’t have creative ambition of their own outside of reinterpret older work to make it more modern. I find it sort of gross

@Kazcooledoff Of the video game auteurs that exist I have more respect for the ones like Kojima who iterate on their past work rather than redo it a bunch. He didn’t remake MG, he made MG2. He didn’t remake MG2, he made MGS. With him out of the picture they’re likely remake both of those now

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD I think you’re right that developers would rather choose the “superior” option, but because the way they view video games as a medium is flawed. I’m glad there was a time where they were very limited. I think of it as lightning in a bottle, and I think remakes can’t capture it

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD So you think for the vast majority of those games if they had the ability to make more advanced graphics of the future back then, they wouldn’t use that ability and would make them look the same? Cus I’d vehemently disagree

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD Well, ok. I guess my larger claim then is that “graphics” (I prefer saying fidelity) are part of the style. Definitely the case for Minecraft, but I’d also say it’s the case for (not just Shadow of the Colossus, not just PS2 games, but pretty much) every game created for CRT use

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD I don’t think its faulty logic tho because theyre not always proportionally related. Which is why the Minecraft image on the right looks worse because even though its better graphics wise, its worse style wise(cus the pixelated graphics is the style too). It’s usually related tho

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD It’s literally just language. I really don’t get how it makes you this mad to just argue semantics instead of just thinking about it. It’s just the difference between graphics and style. Very important parts of game design. They both matter even if usually style is more important

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD I won’t tell you how to live your life but to me it seems sad to force yourself to think that “objectively better” images look “better” despite actually thinking that they look worse. What does this accomplish for anybody?

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD So you agree that the “objectively superior” image looks worse than the original? What’s the point of maintaining this “objective” truth of what constitutes a “better” image if you don’t even think the image looks better? You literally don’t believe your own “objective” opinion

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD Im not getting upset ur just strawmanning and trying to argue for no reason even after clarifying. Im just talking about fidelity being improved upon in remakes. Ur saying I’m deciding how everyone should feel when that’s not what I’m doing And yes but it looks ugly(my point)

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD You keep treating this like it’s the debate team and getting upset while I’m simply trying to have a discussion with the objective arbiter of digital imagery. Does the texture on the right correlate to an enhanced, superior image? There’s higher image fidelity, so surely, right?

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD It literally does mean a superior image. Again like I’ve said multiple times now that’s DIFFERENT than saying everyone should prefer it over a worse quality image. I never said my opinion so youre just not comprehending what I mean or you’ve gone too far to admit you were wrong

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD I never said you’re forcing your opinion on others, I said you’re treating your opinion as if it’s objective. I don’t care if you give people permission to enjoy the original game. That’s not the argument here. A larger image resolution does not inherently mean a superior image

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD You’re literally just complaining and arguing because of your lack of reading comprehension. Improvement is not an opinion. It’s the correct word. Feel free to look up uses and the definition if you want lol. You’re just being dense even when I clarified what I meant immediately:
Kaz@Kazcooledoff

@emberlmao @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD Yes exactly. It’s okay to prefer the original for whatever reasons btw

@Kazcooledoff @Dlika2 @lFibreOpticl @WYLDERSSWORD The use of “improvement” is opinion. The objective word choice would be “increased”. Bigger is not inherently better. It’s not up to you to decide for everybody what graphics are “better”, regardless of what your job may be
