Is this the worst remastering ever?

>runs worse
>plays worse
>fucking LOOKS worse
>adds nothing except the DLC

How is this fucking allowed?
>>
>>331355653
Nice contrast
>>
>>331355709

I personally love how they thought that this game needed more bloom.

TRIPLE DARE!

They must have added that new skeleton hat in the remaster.
>>
>>331355863
>>331355963
>>331356120
The top one?
>>
>>331356339

Yeah, I can definitely see how this radical change warranted 2 fucking years of in-house development and serving as the excuse to us not getting DS3.
>>
>>331356392

Literally, incorrect. The BOTTOM one is the remaster.

Yes. The one with worse shadows, worse contrast and worse atmosphere.

Take that in for a fucking moment.

This is a meme that has already made itself - it just waits execution.
Go slap some contrast on something.

Here's an exploitable.
>>
>>331356120
bottom feathers are better
>>
>>331356120
In this one I can actually see the slightly better textures on the bottom one. Still, is this comparing consoles or PC? Does the PC version already manage to pull off the "remastered" textures?
>>
>>331356904

Yeah, but the ice in the background looks like a midly cold rock.
>>
>>331356937

Both above and bellow are PC. Deathfinitive (fuck even the name is retarded) on bottom, and original on top.

But despite sheer fidelity, the game looks better on the top, I'd say.
>>
who cares? it's was a 7/10 game at best
>>
>>331357184

I'd say 8, but it managed to REDUCE its score by a few points thanks to it's own fucking remaster.
>>
I always liked the artsyle in Darksiders, but yeah, it looks worse in the """remastered""" edition.
>>
>>331355863
Is his mask/skull shorter in the remaster?
>>
>>331355653
It's allowed because it's not breaking any promises (not that that stopped anyone before really).

All that matters is how much money it makes. If people understand how shitty it is and don't buy it then that's that.
>>
>>331357076
The remaster pics have much better textures overall. You're just autistic.
>>
Darksiders had so much potential but they just had to turn it into a mmo-lite with part2.
>>
>>331358346

Aesthetic > texture quality
>>
>>331355863
>>331355963
>>331356120
Bottom three all have clearly higher resolution textures, but looks like they smudged out a lot of detail in the process.
>>
No that title is reserved for Silent Hill HD collection.
>>
I bought this shit for practically nothing on my xb1. The game is fucking boring. I beat the first dungeon, or whatever. The one with the builder giants and the forge and then I dropped it. Why do most western action games suck dick?
>>
Threadly reminder that DS2 is better than Zelda, and if you disagree you should have been aborted.
>>
>>331355653

I still don't get why this series is still going. Who the fuck is buying these games? I played the first one after getting it for a dollar in a humble bundle and got bored as fuck 3 dungeons in.
>>
>>331359529
Teenage edgelords and autists really
>>
>>331359529
I enjoyed them both. They take elements of Legend of Zelda and God of War and make an enjoyable game.
>>
>>331355653

I own the remaster. It looks better in most cases, the lighting is a lot more natural and textures are much sharper and have better reflectivity and the like where appropriate.

There are some lighting issues introduced by the latest patch that affect certain areas though and it seems like they gave up supporting the game, but overall I prefer it over the original.
>>
>>331355653
> Should we add high-res textures for the remaster boss?
> Are you nuts? We're on a budget. Just dial the bloom up to 11 and ship it out the door
>>
>>331362195
So if I have the original and the remaster on my pc, is there really any reason to keep the remaster installed?
>>
>>331359529

It's NOT still going.
>>
>>331355653
You forgot that it crashes all the time.
>>
How did this garbage ass sequel get a remaster?
>>
>>331356527
What shadows?

The bottom one clearly looks better on all three.

This is clearly not in the same class as the Silent Hill remasters

Stop being such a baby.
>>
Did they fix any of the game breaking bugs or other clunky bullshit? I stopped partway through Darksiders 2 after having to reload my game for the third time because I'd get screwed over by infinite loading loops or enemies not spawning that you needed to kill to advance.
>>
What the fuck is the deal these days with remasters always being brighter?
All the Zelda remakes especially.
>>
did they at least fix the issues with the low-res UI? Or was this just in my cracked version?

Well, worse or not, I have a free game somehow.
>>
>>331364267
a small company got the licence for almost nothing, and they want every penny they can get from it.
>>
>>331355653
When did it came out, in 2010? Why the fuck would you remaster that
>>
>>331365629
it's free if you own Darksiders2+AllDLC

>>331365814
Nordic is not small and are pretty based. They've done a great job with the THQ shit they bought (nice updates to RF:G, fixes for MXvsATV).
Darksiders 2 is the only thing they fucked up so far
>>
>>331364267
Probably just to remind people it exists while Nordic works on DS3
>>
>>331365975
Was DLC seperate?
I don't remember buying DLC for Darksiders II.
Unless it was in park of a pack I had.
>>
>>331366368
I think it was only for those who bought the franchise pack. Though heaps of people complained about that so maybe conditions became a little more lenient
>>
>>331366526
Maybe.
I did own 1 and 2, but don't remember buying any DLC.
I got 1 for free, and bought 2 when it was dirt cheap on a sale, so I didn't buy any franchise pack.
Maybe they changed it if you owned just 1 and 2 maybe?
>>
A shame alot of the new textures just doesn't fit. Doesn't have that comic book feel to them anymore
>>
Darksiders is shit no matter how "good" it looks, I finished the first one to see the ending and I got nothing but disappointment.
>>
>>331359529
IP died, bro.
I remember Platinum wanted to buy it for cheap when THQ died, but couldn't get it cheap enough.
So now Darksiders as a franchise died at 2, when they were obviously going to make a game for every Horseman.
I so would have loved the series if Platinum got Darksiders IP.
>>
>>331356120
>bottom one ditched the depth-of-field
>>
>>331367086
>Nordic games now own the ip
>they said if definitive doesn't sale no 3
>definitive sold like shit with loads of fan backlash
>>
>>331367336
I wasn't aware of this.
Also, why give it away for free, if people already owned the franchise.
Stupid on their behalf.
I don't even know who Nordic Games is, so I dunno how I feel about a 3 from them.
>>
>>331367336
I loved the base game a few years ago, but this remaster edition has no right to be such an obvious cash grab, not even to fund new game.
Go crowdfund or something if you can't get any funding.
>>
>>331367505
A stunt to reward "loyal fans" but those fans hate the way the sdefinitive looks and runs compared to the original.
They made red faction guerrilla
>>
>>331355653
>How is this fucking allowed?
Because you fucking idiots keep buying into this shit. Keep putting money in their pockets idiots. Learn to speak with your wallets, not words.
>>
>>331366526
It's still only free if you own all DLC
>>
>>331355863
it looks like a shitty WoW boss
>>
>>331355653
>Is this the worst remastering ever?
Silent Hill HD collection
>>
>>331355963
They couldn't even replace the flat skulls ground texture with actual meshes. This is beyond lazy and scummy.

This is not a remaster, this is a port with the super low res textures from the original version replaced with some better ones.
