A remaster of a remaster...nice

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[UNBREAKABLE]

DR1 never got "remastered" to the standard most people see a remaster being. The 2016 release is a bare minimal port of the Xbox 360 version. Almost everything is the same except the save system and the ability to scale up with higher resolutions and framerates.

The remaster shown today on the other hand looks like a modern engine (not MT framework anymore) with new models, textures and voice work. Far above the scope of the original "remaster" and we barely have any footage.

They remake old games like Dead Rising because the old games were much better and more fun than today's games. You all better accept that.

Remaster coming to steam ? I imagine it will.

This version is a straight port with 0 remastered assets. It's just a PC port and nothing else.

i find it odd to remaster this game. The current versions feels pretty solid and only needs a few modifications to make it more modern or just as modern as the upcoming remaster.

It depends of how much they will improve.
One of the things of this game that I always wish to change on a possible remake/remaster was for the world/mall to be seamless.

You know, in this original the entire mall is segmented and divided by constant loading screens. Each area is it's own separate map.

Can you imagine if this new version delivers a completely seamless world like Capcom recent RE remakes?

That would be a game changer and provide a new experience.

isn't it weird that it's called a remaster when it kind of looks more like a remake judging from the graphics in the trailer? it could've just been for the sake of the trailer, though.

I'm wondering the same... but the trailer shows 1:1 cutscenes shots to the original. When Capcom say remake (at least with the recent RE games) they mean, completely redone and redesigned.

This seems to be exactly the same game, just with remade assets.

I guess we will know for sure on Monday.

I'm hoping it to be the exact game with no redesigns, but seamless world instead of dozens of loading screens between areas.

you're forgetting improved AI. /s (not really since ai is literal trash this game)

Monday feels so far from now, ugh I'm just getting impatient. can't wait to hear and see more.

Yeah absolutely.. escorting those survivors were painful. But that got mostly fixed on DR2, so I'm assuming they will at least get that sorted.

Bare minimal? They vastly improved lighting and added support for up to 300FPS

The lighting is not different at all from the Xbox 360 version. You can compare them yourself and check the many videos available. DR1 just looks good and was ahead of its time visually when it came out on 360 - it even used MSAA with per-object motion blur.

And high FPS and resolution IS a bare minimum expectation for a PC port.
