They just are. Not only are they better than the new games, they're better than the originals too.
>Dreamcast Conversion is better than both SA1 and SADX
>Team Fortress 2 Classic is better than both beta and modern TF2
>Project+ is better than both Melee and Brawl
The only other good versions of these games are the OG releases (Sonic Adventure International, Team Fortress 2 Beta, Super Smash Bros Melee). But why play the OG releases when the mods provide so much more? And that is only scratching the surface. If the game is FLOSS then it's even easier to remaster it, look at Doom or Quake or Friday Night Funkin'.
>>39455alt tabbing out of the first crashes the game like old source stuff too lol
and btw,they ADDED DENUVO TO BOTH HAHAHA wtf
I have tried the remasters of Warcraft trilogy. Well, tried trying the first one, it wouldnt run, which is the shame because that is the one which needed remaster most desperately (original doesnt even have standard mouse controlled unit movement, you need to pick move command in UI). Shame.
Wacraft 2, you get crispier sounds, sharper sprites, widescreen support, and shortcut controlled game speed (GOG version had it in menu). Only the last is a meaningful change, visually this game aged really well. Gameplay, not so much. 2/3ths of both campaigns are trivially easy, so its just boring slog until you get to some semblance of challenge, and the challenge is rushing naval supremacy because the missions outcome is decided by not getting your navy crushed in first 5 minutes, because if you do then you have no way to recover as building ships requires oil pumped from sea floor.
Warcraft 3 Reforged, just straigth-up downgrade. At least you can turn off all the visual "improvements" that make the game less readable and less colourful. I already wrote about this is Total War thread, but modern obsession with grafical fidelity has been a disaster for strategy genre. Detailed, fancy models sure look pretty when zoomed in (convenient for trailers), but turn into unreadable mess from birds perspective, which is how you play the game for 99% of time. Not to mention dimmer model colour pallet now blurs into the ground texture. Good news is, you can turn new graphics off in settings. Other than that, it made slight changes to campaign missions. Usually modifying the map so it is in line with WoW lore. I think there is also new voiceacting. Bad remake, and it is sad they decided to put most effort into the game that didnt need changing.
