Another "dev" attacking gamers. If you don't want to watch it, then you can read about it.

meh, it's not even made by the original game studio apparently.

Apparently a brand new studio, and already mouthing off, probably has nothing to sell but controversy.

Thanks. I agree with him, gamers are scummy when it comes to the stuff he is talking about. Also, one level designer doesn't represent the whole company. Article is just rage bait.

Perfect Dark was a great game, but it's so old that I think it would need more than a simple remake/remaster. The controls in particular were horrendous, with aiming split between the left joystick for left and right, and the C buttons for up and down.

They would need to completely redo the game on a more modern engine, with updated controls and upgraded bot AI.

It wouldn't be a very hard thing for a game company to do, but these days game companies are far too focused on making a quick buck. They don't care about creating a quality product anymore.

Ironically a completely remade Perfect Dark done right could easily become one of the best shooters of this generation. The dual function weaponry was a nice, fun touch, and bot AI was advanced enough to allow players to play vs bots instead of each other, and they would be able to sell all the cosmetic skins they wanted to for extra profit.

Add in extra game modes that didn't exist in the original like capture the flag, along with proper PC support for community run dedicated servers with a server browser and you have a winning formula that couldn't fail.
