Along with everything else, I find it so annoying that these games that totally didn't need a remaster get one, and so many great older games just begging for a remaster that woud rake in cash dont get one.

Even if I was a bazillionaire, I'd still be pirating Sony games out of principle

Lol remastering a 2017 game, mega cash grab.

[–] unfnknblvbl 1 points 4 months ago

Of all the games that could benefit from a remastering in 2024, Horizon Zero Dawn would be among the last of them. That game still looks utterly gorgeous, ffs.

Just pirate anything Sony puts out. This shit makes it clear that it's not worth giving them a single dollar. And if we're being really honest, all their games are super generic and very mid, you can just ignore them as a developer completely and you won't miss out on anything.

HZD is anything but generic and mid.

[–] djsoren19@yiffit.net 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

It actually is just another open-world action game with crafting elements, they may have been rare once but now they're a dime a dozen.

[–] ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca 2 points 4 months ago

So then why go to the trouble of pirating it?

[–] Skates@feddit.nl 6 points 4 months ago (1 children)
