I'm ambivalent when it comes to remakes of movies or TV shows, but I will always support remakes of video games.

They're a media that was 100% constrained by the technology and the storage format of their time, and there's nothing that's more of a bummer than reading interviews with video game devs talking about things they wanted to put into a particular game but quite literally couldn't either because it wasn't possible with the technology they had at the time or they couldn't fit it onto the disc.

If a remake means they get to make the game according to their original vision for it? Worth it.

[(Anonymous)]

Yep! It's fun to enjoy the new gameplay and fanworks and they don't change the story a lot (unless it's FFVIIR which is more compislop but they called it a remake to sell)

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, it's better when they add new stuff, but also, it's a great opportunity to fix issues and just make it more approachable to new players overall.

[(Anonymous)]

There's also the fact that a lot of old formats are dying. Sometimes games made for older machines are flat out unplayable on new ones due to technical issues.

Remakes that add extra functions like colorblind modes also do a lot for accessibility.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, I really enjoy playing old games ported to ROMs, but there is a fair bit of fiddling around involved and it's not the ideal environment to play them, despite many hobbyists putting a fuckton of time and work into them. So whenever there's a remake or even just a refresh, I'm thrilled! And the old game still exists.

I don't care if it make me a "bad" fan, or a bad person. I simply have no interest in Wakanda and its related shenanigans in Marvel's Cinematic Universe, and you cannot make me care.

Who's trying to make you?

Racist!

[(Anonymous)]

I don't either and no one has tried to make me...????

[iff_and_xor]

With something as expansive and branching as the MCU, I’m curious which sets of stories or characters people tend to be attracted to. I think there’s definitely a fantasy/sci-fi scale, for one thing.

With Wakanda, the whole monarchy and national/international politics is not something I think they do well or at least not in a way that interests me either.

But I did enjoy some of the characters in the first movie and the AfroFuturist aesthetic.

I prefer games with an endless mode, or at least a newgame+.

If the game runs its length and just... ends, I always end up putting off finishing it.

It's been more than twenty years and this is still one of the best father/daughter relationships I've ever seen. The older I get, the more sad realizations I have about my own parents, especially my dad. It's become the hardest part of rewatching this show. I will never have a parent who loves and supports me like this. It's hard to explain to other people why a teenage girl detective show is making me cry so much.

There's a recc'er who has been going for over 20 years, posting a multi-fandom rec list every month. I absolutely love their taste, we share most fandoms, the ones we don't they tend to convince me to join - they are the Gardner Dozois of fanfic for me.

But last month most of the entries on the rec list were for Heated Rivalry. I'm glad they've found a new fandom, and they owe me NOTHING, but still...
