Rocky roads ahead, gamers .. we are getting yanked our origin story right from under us:
”a re-mastered / re-made version of the prologue chapter”
featuring:
- omitting some parts to make it more consistent with the tone of the game's overall storyline
+
- changing some parts to make it more consistent with the tone of the game's overall storyline
Oh no ... we are going full mobster horror story.
Any thoughts?
I am glad that the prologue is getting remastered, BUT, I am also on the fence with this decision. Many times when devs make changes to their earlier work, a part of their audience are always left unsatisfied with the said change. And not only is TLGGAMES gonna 'change' things but he will also 'omit' things. And for the life of me, I can't think of any scenes in Prologue which needs to be omitted. Changed scenes? Sure, but omit? It depends on what he is planning to omit, but in Prologue I don't even think there are any omit worthy scenes.
Also, rather than focusing on story changes in this remastered, he should rather focus on the visual and writing changes instead. Many people have complained, and rightfully so, that there are some obvious visual errors such as the skin texture clipping.
There is also the problem of writing, TLGGAMES is not a native English speaker and it's visible in his writing. Now, he has certainly got better over time but there are still some grammar mistakes here and there that sometimes take you out of the game.
I don't assume that he is gonna do another remaster afterwards for the visual and writing errors, right? Like, that would be a complete waste of time. This problems should be sorted out in this remaster itself. I think that rather than focusing on changing story elements, he should instead/also work on the visual and writing errors, that way the Prologue would finally feel complete and satisfying.
