It’s a product, if you don’t like it don’t buy it. I don’t know why people take things like this so serious, not every product is made for you and that’s okay
I feel like there’s way too many people who don’t understand the difference between a remaster and a remake. I don’t think the last of us needed a remake, but it’s not the same as a remaster.
Lol the Part 1 remake is night and day better over the previous upgrade. Reddit really loves just joining hive minds on everything for those sweet interwebz points
And then Nintendos the kind of company to port over skyward sword at full $60 price. Both company’s excel at some things and are absolutely corrupt in others
Before starting to compare two totally different games you should start by learning the difference between a REMASTER and a REMAKE. I too don’t agree with the 70$ price tag but this comparison is just ridiculous, made to start another dumb console war for free karma.
The Last of Us was remade to coincide with the HBO show as part of Sony’s larger strategy to cross over game with film and TV. They anticipated a renewed interest in TLOU and rather than sell the PS4 remaster of a 10 year old game they made a decision to make a new one that was built for their latest console. Since the show aired sales of the remake shot up nearly 300%.
Also, lets not kid ourselves, they went fucking hard on TLOU graphical overhaul. Like it’s insane how beautiful the game is and how good the character models look. Also, and i’ll probs be downvoted for this take, but for games today, I don’t think 70 is THAT unreasonable.
TLoU Part 1 definitely >DID< need that remake. Have you looked at the game? It’s so much more beautiful and now fully in-line with the graphics and gameplay of Part 2.
If you want to argue something, the remaster for the PS4 was kinda useless. The graphical jumps weren’t big and the gameplay was left untouched afaik. And it came out very shortly after the release of the original game on PS3, since that one happened around the end of the console generation anyways.
This is an incredibly dumb take. The upgrade that is Part I is a massive improvement and will keep the game relevant into future gens without looking dated.
And once again, if you don’t want it – don’t fucking buy it. Jesus.
I for one was absolutely over the moon when I saw Metroid prime was remastered was released, never bought a game so quick!
Wow! A marketing team trying to hype up and convince people to buy their product? I, for one, am outraged!
If you hate wasting money.. just.. don’t buy it? Or just get it on sale. It’s not that serious.

Nostalgia kicked in and I’m already over 50% on Metroid after this weekend. What a great game. It looks and plays exactly as I had in my memory.
Big difference here is, The Last of Us is currently on sale, and will be on for even deeper discounts in the future, and inevitably free on PS+.
Metroid Prime will be $40 *forever*
Then why buy it if you’re just going to complain about wasting money?
If you are already perfectly happy with the last of us remaster then why do you even care if the remake exists?
Is anyone forcing you to buy it?
People need to learn the difference between a remake and a remaster.
Why would you spend money to get a remaster of a game you don’t want? You know you guys don’t have to buy every game that comes out right?

Then don’t buy it
Hot take! Let people buy whatever the fuck they want with their money, and you do the same. Problem solved

Op seems angry
Are you seriously trying to say that Nintendo don’t overcharge their consumers and overprice things? This has to be a joke, right?
Nintendo is not the good guy either

This also completely ignores all the accessibility options they added in the Last of Us remake
Why did you waste $70 on a game you didn’t want and already owned? Why do dumb ass posts get so much love on this sub
I didn’t get any vibes about Last of Us Remake being “the second coming of Christ.” I think the team was just proud of what they did on it.
$70 is obviously too expensive for anyone who’s already played it. Think it was more for newcomers.
The last of us remake looks fkn incredible. Y’all tripping. Easily one of, if not the best looking game on ps5.

Me: *happy with both Metroid Prime Remastered and The Last Of Us remake*

You know you can not buy stuff that doesn’t appeal to you, right?

Why is this upvoted
Gamers with memory that only lasts 3 days, amirite?
yikes this post is biased as fuck
I’ve always thought TLOU part 1 was massively overhyped, whichever version we’re talking about, but, like, you don’t have to buy it.
There’s a vast difference between the amount of work that went into these 2 remakes. It’s not a fair comparison.
