    I think the 3D models might still be a bit too 3D looking actually in the new one. I can see the textures used have a nice almost painterly style which helps a lot, but there's still a fair bit of soft shading being rendered from the lighting set up. 'The Serpent's Curse' characters have a much more cel shaded look, which I think is better. Also the 3D geo of Nico's seat for example looks really lowpoly in places - you can see the segments along the back of the chair, it isn't a smooth curve, so that clashes with the beautiful 2D background. I think really the less 3D looking it all is the better for sure.

  • @Chewbacca2000
    @Chewbacca2000 10 місяців тому +14

    This is exciting! Have to point out though that George's voice audio when he's sitting at the table with Nico, has reverb/echo on it that makes him sound indoors and not outdoors, so the sound design in that regard needs fixing. Also hopefully with the new 'Reforged' version, it'll start with the original intro - straight into the Cafe bombing. That was basically perfect before, the 'Director's Cut' version starting out with Nico totally lost all that great momentum. So if Nico's sections are included then the bit at the start should be shuffled to later as a flashback maybe, or if can be scrapped and modified to make sense later that could be better. Really looking forward to seeing both of these though!!

    This looks promising. I compared some shots with the original cutscenes and instead of just cropping the image to 16:9 and upscaling it, they've actually opened up the sides, upscaled the backgrounds (I presume?) and redrawn the animations in the style of the original. I hope they can give the sound some love, too. Those were 22kHz files originally (voice, sfx and music) and they sound horrible. They already increased the music quality for the Wii version (only half the music though as they didn't use the rest), so fingers crossed.

    The first game remastered in it's original form, upscaled in 4K, and on modern platforms... A dream come true! A 4K remaster of BS2 is obviously not far ahead since it's the last game retaining the 2D animation we all came to love.
    I don't care about more sequels though. BS3 drew the line for me concluding the franchise in a good way despite being in 3D. If the 4K remasters sells well, a remake of BS3 using the same style as BS5 would be good to go with.

If you can make the characters fit as well with the background as you did for BS5 then it will look outstanding I think but I am sure you are aware that the characters need more work. BS1 reforged also looks amazing. Incredible job with recreating everything with so much higher fidelity! I'm really excited for both of these upcoming releases.

    As I played this, as a child, I thought I would grow up to be like George. Now, 25 years later, my life lies in ruins. Still, I look forward to this day of release.
