  • Well, the developers could be at least partially at fault. Higher up positions may not be the only ones to blame, as the they may have delegated roles to the lower positions that could have included creative control.

    We don’t know whether the developers share any responsibility for what happened.

    I also think that the artists could have easily created better designs for the characters, so why they made the designs so uninspired and unappealing really makes me reconsider if some of the development team may be partially to blame as well.

    At least the game didn’t seem to have bad gameplay bugs, but the game was around for less than two weeks and I didn’t play it, so I can’t sntirely confirm that. But the engineers and programmers probably arent to blame for the games failure. People didnt seem to complain about the game on a technical level.




  • Good. I heard this version was pretty faithful to the original and did not opt to censor anything from the original.

    That is how games that are remastered or remade should be done: as faithful as possible to the original with the absolute minimal changes necessary.

    If developers want to have a remade story that makes a lot of changes, then include it as an alternate mode. As long as the original is faithfully recreated, I have no problem trying out a new way to play. But only including the new way to play rubs me the wrong way. Its like someone in development said “I know better than the original team, and my ‘better’ version is the only one people will get to play.” I steer clear of those.

    Resident Evil Deadly Silence did this, where it had its own “Rebirth Mode,” along with “Classic Mode.” Literally all remakes and remasters should have this.



  • Scenario A: Only do this if the recording you are ripping from is in the public domain. Otherwise you’re going to be paying fees

    Scenario B: Most sound effects already in games are either made in-house by the developers or are from a licensed sound library. These are easily recognizable and if someone decides to check if you have the rights, youre going to be paying fines and penalties.

    Scenario C: Same risk as above two scenarios.

    Most of the time people don’t check or don’t care, but if they do you’d be paying out a lot for something that you easily could have avoided by either buying the license for the sound library or recording it yourself.
