You may now rage internally.

Why Rage? We've got a DLC coming for Rebirth already, that's probably going to be 10 times the size of this.

I'm happy to see the original is getting a bit of extra love, since I thought it'd be left in the dust after Rebirth's release.

So... They gona make DLC for the DLC?

It's nice that Florian decided to work on the old game, add some new content. Will it be with nerfed Habit like in The Most Unholy Edition?

Holy hell the original game looks so freaking ugly now.

I'm not saying that out of a love for pixels, I'm saying that because where the hell is all the shading.

Okay...

I mean like, iunno. What I was trying to say is the high lack of contrast and different tones. Everything was so bright and nearly the same color as everything else, while in Rebirth, they really toned down the colors to the more eerie and dark vision of the game. I ESPECIALLY love what they did to Depths and Catacombs. And Cathedral. Cathedral is freaking beautiful.

The only thing I'm going to rage about is why you made a discussion it, when theres an announcment for it.

I agree that coming from Rebirth it does look a little bright. Part of it though is the new hard versions of enemies he has skinned as white (either to distinguish them or because the visuals are incomplete). If you watch the video until it shows the standard Hallow it does have the contrast and texture.

Personally I'm not a big fan of the pixels in Rebirth compared to the razor sharp smooth lines in the original, but for the framerate stability and speed it's a worthwhile sacrifice.

[Moonfang]

Not going back. Can't stand the original game anymore. I don't care about this.

[Kerato]

I'll keep on playin' rebirth

[bullex]

Original was great, but Rebirth is too ahead of that game in terms of, well, everything :P More items, more characters, more content in general, upgraded graphics, different music, synergies...

And it's gonna get DLC too. So - nice that Florian works on that update for WotL, I hope that hardcore original game lovers will be extatic about it. I'm not :P

That's what they thought, but it seems they were a bit wrong.

If you haven't heard of Community Remix, it was a mod for the original game that managed to add in more than 20 new items, a new character, some new cards, and a few other things. However, it was apparently a real hassle to get it to work, and they eventually did reach a point where they just couldn't add more at all.

The limitations can be stretched a bit further than Edmund and Florian originally thought, but it takes quite a bit of effort, and there's still an eventual wall they can't climb.

Honestly don't think I can play the original anymore. Probably won't bother with it. Hopefully some of that stuff will make to Rebirth.
