[The Last Stand]

TheNathanNS' review on the GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition.

So can we activate Hot Coffee in definitive on PC and then make a huge fucking stink about it?

Until enough people do it to where R* makes Grove Street patch it out.

>Implying any more work will be done on this game

I do not like the Wasted and Busted screens in the remasters. All those colors are distracting.

And something I learned from NathanNS, if you buy the Mafia: Definitive Edition, you get the remake AND the original (PC) Why didn't they do that for this trilogy?

Considering how many times they flat out gave away the original trilogy in the early 2010's, it's probably because it would make these games look bad.

I thought that was just for Mafia 2 and 3 DE, which is basically just a texture mod (that looks worse than the originals)

Remember: those remasters were published by 2K. Game company under Take 2, like Rockstar.

You're intentionally sabotaging yourselves at this point. This is a fucking cash grab of the most vile order.
R* games used to pride themselves on attention to detail, to an autistic degree. These versions vomit all over these iconic masterpieces and the original teams that developed them.

A lazy cash grab would just be a direct port of the PS2 versions, or even those just running in a PCSX2 core - something you can do yourself on an Xbox One or better, if you have a developer's account.

I don't know what the hell the deal is with making these look worse. Some woefully out-of-touch corporate meddling that thinks Zoomers will only buy games if they look like Fortnite? Do they take shit like that and have a greenhorn team remake it so they'll have something to show to investors? How do these things even happen?

Hillary Clinton's getting hard just thinking about it and Jack Thompson's about to come out from the grave.

MORE DIVERSITY HIRES! SOCIAL EQUITY NOW! MERITOCRACY IS A MYTH!

Dude, porting the PS2 games would be more work than what they did. Good luck porting those to iOS and Android and not getting cancer.
Using the mobile versions is like using expired milk to make a milkshake.

These assets were designed for a different era and different hardware. They simply don't work on modern engines without extensive remaking. They will always look pixar/fortnite-y.
Yes, even those fan ports aren't worth it once you're being asked to fork over $60. They're fine as a showcase but they're also bug riddled and lack mission scripts.
But the difference is those are just mods by enthusiasts; this is supposed to be from a professional studio.

And what's shitty about it is that R* will take no heat from this, despite it being them who outsourced the job and then not even crediting GSG in the game.
If the remakes turned out good, everyone would be praising R* and R* North would be soaking it all up.
But since it turned out like shit, "Uh guys R* didn't actually make this, it was those other guys who don't even work for R*!"

Wasn't one of the reasons for this to get it off Renderware as they had to pay EA or someone a portion of every sale due to having the rights to the engine?

This looks like a bootleg mobile game

Apparently the frumpy looking girl in the hoodie worked on the character designs for the game, and /v/irgins started simping for her

Not even surprised at this point

The real Claude Speed should go there and bash their heads in. Except for the dorky hoodie girl.

You literally can't even beat Vice City.
For those who forgot, if you can't pass Copland, you can't complete the Vercetti estate missions, which means you can't unlock Cap The Collector nor Keep Your Friends Close and complete the main story.

Streamer's also implying these types of bugs plague asset missions, which are basically the second half of the main story. Game is broken and R* robbed their loyal cucks again!

Weird. A Youtuber named Gyspy managed to beat Vice City. They don't even test their products before launch.

 

[Milwaukee Macho Man]

Wait, they censored the confederate flag but kept "Tarbrush" in?

lol I guess Aziz wasn't lying when he said nobody knew what that was.

 

[Muu]

Thanks I hate it, don't even need to say why. Zoomers praising it beacuse no major YouTubers haven't said anything negative about it. This whole thing makes me feel sad and old.

There's a possibility R* didn't give GSG enough money to even afford them (testers). This whole thing reeks of amateur hour.
But every time I want to give GSG the benefit of the doubt, I remember they never patched the HD remasters. Ever.
And this isn't the 00s anymore, all GSG needs to do is go on twitter and say they'd love to fix their game, but they're just waiting on R*'s say so. But no, the games are still sold as a mess.

Zoomers praise it because they never played the originals. I can't blame them entirely.
I blame the 30-40 year olds who should know better than to dickride a company that doesn't even employ the people who made your favorite games anymore.

 

[Maurice Caine]

I just don't get it, two dudes in a basement coded a reverse engineering project that's way better than this. Why did Rockstar even try? Look at it! It was free too.

 

[The Last Stand]

OH, THIS.

Like you said, zoomers buy this. The Confederate flag is more recognizable than an outdated racial term. Still, they still should not had changed details like that to begin with.

 

[Milwaukee Macho Man]

I actually uninstalled Rockstar Launcher today. I hadn't played anything on it in over a year and this fucking travesty reminded me it was taking up space on my harddrive.

That's how bad they done fucked up.
