It would be cool if instead of remaking/upscaling/remastering old games, companies made new games using old (or tastefully modified) old engines and graphics. I would totally be down for a new, official Deus Ex game on Unreal 1.
You mean like Ion Fury, that game fucks
Yes. Very cool to see the Build Engine getting a revival.
Even something like Selaco or Hedon which run on GZDoom instead of an "authentic" older engine.
The novelty of amazing graphics has long ago worn off for me and I prefer simplier graphical fidelity with an art style and sharp gameplay instead. I think also from a money standpoint if a developer wants to capture the wider nostalgia audience, that direction is better able to do it.
