Abe's Exoddus is also my favorite game of all time, and in my eyes, The remake simply cannot beat it. The original means too much to me.

But that's fine. I never expect remakes to be better than the originals anyway. I just want to be good recreations that do the originals proud. And despite everything said, that what I got out of New 'N' Tasty; So I have high hopes for the AE remake.

Also I'm with FA. AE is the best game I've ever played. But before you say anything sarcy, I'm going drop the everything is subjective bomb. There is no "best game ever". It's your opinion.

The RE1 remake is miles better than the original.

Manco 02-24-2016 08:40 AM

That’s because RE1 is a bad game.

Nepsotic 02-24-2016 10:49 AM

If it was a bad game it wouldn't have such a huge following and a million sequels?

Varrok 02-24-2016 11:02 AM

Isn't REmake faithful to the original? Shouldn't it be sucky as well, if that's the case?

Bixer 02-25-2016 01:18 AM

Cut out all the ridiculously unnecessary padding and vastly rework the hub system towards the end of the game and it could be considerably better than the original

STM 02-25-2016 01:50 AM

Padding such as? The only AE puzzles I thought were shit were the laughing gas + slam door ones and the 'kill 'em' glukkon v slog parts. Even then only because of their repetitiveness. Hey, why just do it once when we can have these puzzles 7 or 8 times?

Xavier 02-25-2016 02:41 AM

I 'm quite curious to see if they are going to re-make AE in the same way they re-made AO or if they will take a different approach. They are already switching devloppers so I guess anything is possible.

Fischkopf 02-25-2016 03:18 AM

Hopefully they will go back to tile-based movement.

Nepsotic 02-25-2016 03:50 AM

The hub system definitely needs a redesign, Soulstorm Brewery made me want to tear my eyes out, it would just never end.

It was faithful and it added a lot of cool stuff, including lore.

Xavier 02-25-2016 05:47 AM

So are you suggesting a more condensed version of AE? Remove those endless huds and remove the repetitive puzzles?

STM 02-25-2016 05:50 AM

@Neppy - Which subsequently got shat on circa RE4. Unpopular opinion alert.

Also Fishkopf, I doubt that they will, it'd be very time consuming and a bit out of touch with the modern 2.5D platformer market.

Oh yeah? Tell me where. The Trevors and the history of the Spencer Mansion was added into REmake, and nowhere is that mentioned in RE4, because it's irrelevant.

STM 02-25-2016 10:03 AM

I just don't really like RE4 because it's not like the first three and I don't like change.

Please, back on topic.

Beans, gravy, Rebacca Chambers and Leon S. Kennedy.

SoulStorm Brewery’s only problem was that there’s no indication of progression until you reach the final level. If they gave you an idea of how far you had to go it would be fine.

This^^. Abe's Oddysee will always be my favorite oddworld game, but Exoddus made so many improvements. I didn't expect New N Tasty to be better than the original, but I wanted it to be a good recreation that does the original proud, and I think they did a good job. I loved replaying it with fixed controls, and loved all the detail they put into the background, and I just had a blast playing it, and I expect the same from an Exoddus remake. I'm actually replaying Exoddus right now on PC, since I haven't played it since I played back in the day on Playstation 1. I just got out of the mines. I forgot how great this game is, the cutscenes are awesome, the puzzles got harder, the flying sligs, etc... I can't wait to see what they do with a remake of this game.

Yeah. I liked SoulStorm Brewery but I remember thinking, more than once, that I was in the final area of doorways only to finish all of them and advance into another area of doorways.

I'm going to close this thread as it's turning into either a spamfest or a duplicate of the suggestions thread.
