I just started playing the dead space remaster as my first dead space game since it was on sale, how does it actually compare to the original? It looks bretty good. Controls seem snappy and responsive. They do have a navigational objective tracker and I'm questioning whether it was in the original or its new. So far having a lot of fun despite the clear formula I'm noticing of "enemy pops out of nowhere and begins chasing you, you kill it, only to be instantly attacked in the back by a second enemy" every single room. What did you all think?

    It's the same game but shinier and Isaac talks more often.

        makes isaac more consistent with the other games. they only made him a silent protagonist in the first game because they thought that's what immersive games have to do since half life did it.

      The fact his dialogue changes depending on how much HP you have is kinda cool and his talking does make sense since he is an enginer but my god did every other character suffer since they have nothing to do now. Hammond sucks in the remake and all the small changes felt kinda forced also the sound design is a bit different/worse

    You're such a normalgay moron. Not only the "remake" is a butchered and pajeeted version of the original, EA are also the ones who killed the IP and the studio who made the original games.
    Hey, tell me if the swarmers STILL just kind of stick to Isaac's model and sit there while his health meter drops instead of, you know SWARMING all over him in a creepy disgusting manner like they do in the actual game.

    It's mechanically the same, but EA smeared it with DEI shit. An example of how these psychopath leftists will eventually erase everything you enjoy and replace it with DEI-compliant trash. These people could burn in hell for all eternity and it wouldn't be nearly enough.

      I don't, the ship is supposed to be a doomed monster infested death trap and it makes absolutely zero sense to frick around random corners of the ship. Also frick spawning monsters when you're just trying to backtrack for one thing, that's just wasting the player's time.

            maybe to unlock a locked area before or to scavenged resources while trying to survive on the ship, the irony here is that you do end up backtracking anyways in the original, the only difference now is that you can return to different stages now if you choose to, it's no different than the rcpd station or the spencer mansion

    LARGEST CHANGES

    The Ishimura is now incredibly dark compared to the original. A lot of the time the lights will be working in one section and then permanently shut off or flicker after progress has been made.
    Isaac is now fully voice acted. He generally only speaks during conversations with others and not when alone.
    Elizabeth Cross who you find murdered by Mercer in the original now has a major role as a guide in Hydroponics (replacing Hammond there) and effectively acts as the human body Isaac sees as a Nicole halluncination on the mining and flight decks as well as Aegis VII. She is killed by Kendra near the end of the game.
    Hammond dies in a similar spot on the Valor except not to a generic brute. Instead he is killed by Chen, the man who was on the ship at the start of the game. Chen's necromorph form was jettisoned to the Valor causing an outbreak. Both die in a singularity explosion.
    Mercer is killed by tentacles on the Ishimura in the spot where you kill the hunter with the shuttle engine. This time he expresses discontent at the situation. In the original he willingly submitted to an infector.
    Zero gravity has been redesigned to use the thruster boots of the second and third game.
    There has been a significant increase in the amount of swearing in dialogue and texts.
    Most weapons have had redesigned secondary fire modes.
    The plasma cutter is not quite as powerful as it was.
    Enemies don't stagger as easily and drops aren't as generous making the game slightly more difficult.
    Human holograms were added as another method of storytelling.
    Side missions were added to the game. These are discovered while completing the main missions and add more background detail to the characters. There are three in total.
    Just about every deck except for the bridge and flight deck are accessed through connecting areas of other decks. For example you need to fly down in a zero g sequence from the hangar bay on the flight deck to the engineering deck.

    • 2 weeks ago
      Anonymous

      The story was expanded with further dialogue and through other media. In particular there has been a bigger focus on unitology.
      Throughout the Ishimura there is more organic matter on the walls. Some glowing tendrils actually serve as a gameplay alteration and must be destroyed to progress.
      Circuit breakers were added as a puzzle element to power certain systems on to progress or open up storage areas.
      The asteroid defense sections including the shooting of asteroids and killing the giant necromorph attached to the side of the ship were redesigned into large zero gravity space areas involving multiple cannons which are used to complete the objective.
      The communcation array puzzle has been increased in difficulty involving routing power to the centre using tiles with different alignments.
      Kendra and Hammond don't argue anywhere near as much and seem far less stressed about the situation than in the original game. There is still a layer of mistrust which is voiced but it's almost passive in nature. The new voice actors for them are definitely worse.
      The reason you revisit the medical deck was changed from a poison cure to searching for Nicole based off a video call she makes but it is actually Mercer baiting Isaac with old footage.
      You find weapons in the environment and can use them immediately instead of finding a schematic and buying the weapon from a store.
      Weapons don't have complete upgrade paths in the bench by default. You need to find items scattered throughout the environment or sold on the store to expand the paths.
      You can encounter enemy respawns while moving through previously cleared areas. There's even a chance that when you enter a room with a quarantine you'll have to survive another one. The respawns can be fairly frequent at times.
      When visiting previous areas beyond those which are mandatory the lighting may change and certain objects like fan blades might disloge.

      • 2 weeks ago

        There's a larger target range section on the Valor and clearing it triggers a huge necromorph fight.
        The crew deck went through a redesign with a central hub where the marker is located. You have to clear tendrils from the nearby dormitories to progress past the growth in the hub.
        Loading screens have almost been completely eliminated except for when you die. You can travel to previous areas on the Ishimura using the tram or other shortcuts. The tram takes 60 seconds to travel from both extremes of the ship (10 seconds per deck approx), probably to mask loading.
        The other person on your ship at the start of the game is now a black woman who dies in the ship's explosion near the end of chapter one instead of in the flight lounge.
        The doors previously locked by power modules now require access levels. These are increased as the game progresses. Essentially this acts as a way for the game to distribute items on deck revisits a little more evenly. The maximum level is locked behind a side quest.

              Not sure which one it is exactly, someone in engineering or mining talks about someone else acting strangely and the pronoun that keeps being used is "they" when referring to a single person. I had to re-read it at first because I was confused about who the frick "they" were talking to then I figured it out.

    It's a remake, not a remaster.

    They are not the same game, you should play both.

    I mean you should only play the 2008 game because it's good and doesn't have weird troony shit in it but if you want to play the Great Value copycat cash in that's fine too I guess but just play the 08 game for sure because it's a classic.

    I can't bring myself to launch it again. I don't enjoy the shooting, I don't enjoy the (lack of) horror element and I'm not too interested in the story. It feels pretty slow and janky and doesn't really deliver on being scary

    I watched a friend play through it. It's really hard to hate imo. They make a bunch of questionable design decisions that ruin the atmosphere of the first game, but also make up for it with really in depth features. I guess necromorphs are a perfect example, they look objectively worse, like bargain bin zombies, but how have a "flesh level"? Where you can shear flesh, muscle, and bone off them dynamically. Isaac's voice lines work real well, and even though he's a lot more talkative and defined, he actually has different tone amd inflection depending on his current health.
    >"Aw, frick this" vs "AwwwfFFRICK THIS!"
    New Hammond sucks wiener though, they turned a great, if annoying character into a whack ass gay psychopath.

    One thing to keep in mind is that they take a page from Dark Souls 2 for some ungodly reason, changing enemy locations, and even enemies themselves in NG+. Leapers have a charge that they ONLY do in NG+, for example.

    My verdict is that it's a solid sidegrade, I can't say it's better than the Original, but it's not worse either. I'd say that it's probably better to play remaster over original if you're playing all three of them in a row, since they steal a lot of mechanics from 2 and 3.

      The fact his dialogue changes depending on how much HP you have is kinda cool and his talking does make sense since he is an enginer but my god did every other character suffer since they have nothing to do now. Hammond sucks in the remake and all the small changes felt kinda forced also the sound design is a bit different/worse

    It's pretty much the same game. Ganker is literally looking for reasons to hate a game that was well done for a change, and they even managed that with a different director. I remember complaining about the first trailer they showed this remaster where everything was BRIGHT AS FRICK in a horror game, but then they fixed it so it's okay now.

        The quipping is minimal and only happens in dialogue, Isaac isn't going "maybe I should use that card..." with the exception of the literal first puzzle in the game where you're connecting the tram.
        Representation shit doesn't matter because it's literally background and not forced in your face.
        Zero G mechanics were clunky in the original one, which I guess helped with the tension in some parts but it still worked out okay this time.
        ALL of the guns are improved, ALL of them. Do you even remember the secondary attack of the plasma rifle what a fricking joke it was?

        I swear, people suck half-life's dick to this day with a silent protagonist as if that is ever helpful in anything other than an RPG where you choose your dialogue. It's as if you're watching a bad movie where the character you're talking to is is speaking on a phone and they have to expose what they're talking about, artificial as frick.

    The biggest problem with dead space remake is the gameplay, aside from the stomp animation looking absolutely fricking moronic, seriously wtf is up with the stomp, especially after how good it looked for the time in the original?

    The issue is like what happened with the new resident evil remakes, especially similar to RE4, where they replaced aiming with lasers in the world, to bullets coming from the camera, with a reticule drawn on screen. This is why the reticule never gets separated like in the original when aiming, its just UI on the screen.

    This becomes problematic when you think about how enemies approach you in the game. In the original, you shoot from isaac, and enemies move towards isaac, its all in the same space. Now in the remake, we are shooting from the camera, which is offset from isaac, and controlled on a different set of axes.
    It looks worse, plays worse, and its just sad to see industry go backwards.
    I made a schizo drawing to try explain:

        this is moronic

        Its not really a skill issue, I don't have a problem beating either game on hard difficulty with a bajillion credits/health items ammo. Its just annoying that it looks worse and plays worse. It is a substantially different experience when aiming between the two games. And this becomes extremely annoying when necromorphs are close to isaac and start getting into this awkward area between the camera/isaac.

        Its always frustrating in so many third person shooters when you are having to aim left, to get an enemy in the middle of the screen, who is to the right of your character, and then the rotation of the camera around the character disrupts that even more. as opposed to just having your character aim at them intuitively.

        Maybe you should actually think about the games you are playing critically and look at the mechanics.

        It is not an option in the remake, that is only an option in dead space 2/3. It was a mistake for them to even have that though. It is an objectively worse system.

        Whats really damning is that the dead space remake devs stated at one point that they were too lazy to get it to work so they just bailed on it.

        Whats hilarious is other similar titles that have gone down this path of generic third person aiming typically can't even do the most basic shit, like how in RE4R leon explicitly aims really far to the right and it just looks moronic the entire time.

    Graphics and gameplay are greatly improved, but story's been changed in a way that isn't as impactful as the original, end of game especially just... got changed for no real reason? Played Dead Space 2 after beating the remake and that game is honestly much more fluid and fun than the remake, which shouldn't be the case imo. I really hope they don't remake Dead Space 2 'cause that game is perfect the way it is and looks incredible for a game that came out on the 360.

    The art design is worse, necromorphs aren't as intimidating. In the original they would sprint at you with reckless abandon but that was relegated to a really low chance encounter on the hardest difficulty only. In general most hazards/ship design was hit with the generic ray. The atmosphere of being completely alone except the squad you came in with was butchered with constant phone calls from other survivors on the ishimura telling you to complete their side quests. The weapon specific upgrade modules are cool however, but the combat feels too DPS bullet spongy, more like an RPG game than a precise third person shooter like the original.

    Original is superior in all aspects save for graphical ones and to a lesser extend making other guns less shit.

    The original didn't have flight, which I'm sure even a player like you have noticed that all the zero-g sections have 0 threat in them, because the OG is balanced around not having it and they just stuffed it into the remake because..."flying is cool" and I wish I was joking that that was the reason.

    Imagine if Leapers were a threat, imagine if Lurkers were a threat in zero-g. You had times where you'd stasis a Leaper mid flight to rape you in a zero-g, hit stun a lurker to prevent it from shooting you, then swapping back to the lurker who is now slowly closer to you to kill it before it connects and deals damage.

    It's a Demake.

    >Mechanics

    More polished, shinier but still have some grit to them.
    >The Ishimura
    Instead of it being like it was in the 1st game, you can backtrack now to previous locations in order to open up locked doors and containers.
    >Weapons
    Some changed compared to the original ones and all of them got a unique trait if you manage to find a special component for them. Like Isaac's Plasma Cutter getting a knockback ability so powerful it knockbacks anything that isn't a Brute.
    >Story
    Pretty much very close to the original, but with some minor changes and addition of side quests like discovering the origins of The Hunter.
    >Enemies
    Practically unchanged...except they made Twitchers immune to Stasis unless you shoot their own stasis modules. Also The Hunter got much more fleshed out and acts like Nemesis.

    Overall I like it. Still prefer the original out of nostalgia.

          It's the final boss. Big alien thing grabs Isaac by the leg and as the camera pans up and you see its gross face the huge meteor comes into focus in the background to and the music reaches its peak to drive it home that you need to kill it fast or you're gonna die. In the remake there's none of that.
