Holy shit, I got Baldur's Gate 3 recently on sale for less than this lazy remaster of a 19 year old game.
Gamers are lapping this shit up too. What happened to the rage people had for the Switch 2 being expensive?

I thought that it was basically just a texture mod at first, too, but apparently this is an unreal engine 5 game, so it actually is a lot more than a texture mod. Even if they call it remastered, it is essentially a full remake. I wonder what this means for the future of the Gamebryo engine.
It's unreal doing the graphics but apparently it's still Bethesda's engine doing the rest of the game. I'm sure they updated some stuff but it's gonna play pretty damn similarly to Oblivion
The logic is the same as Oblivion and it plays exactly like that. It's a remaster not a remake.
what in tarnation...
What else has changed outside of the graphics? It looks like a very basic remaster to me.
It seems to be a bit more involved than a typical remaster since they seem to have replaced all the rendering side of the creation engine with UE5’s rendering and remade all assets.
Well that's slightly better than I thought, at least.
I watched someone playing it earlier and I've liked what I've seen. alot of neat little details and i feel like they did a good job with animating facial expressions.
so it's more ninja gaiden 2 sigma black than gta definitive edition.
