“Remakes,” on the other hand, are ground-up rebuilds, usually of the classics. Think Mass Effect: Legendary Edition or Uncharted: Legacy of Thieves Collection. Often, calling oneself a “remaster” only constitutes a digital “paint job” – porting or patching the game so that the visuals and mechanics are optimized for the current-gen. So, what merits a remake? In this current generation of gaming, many beloved titles have come back to the fore, introducing themselves to a whole new set of gamers, via “remasters” and “remakes” of their strongest franchise entries. (Here’s proof: ‘ The Last of Us Part 2’ was never meant to satisfy.) So, I hope, with this expression of fealty to the material, I am afforded a modicum of leeway to articulate my thoughts beyond the seemingly cynical headline.
Let’s address this right off the bat, I love The Last of Us – yes, both franchise entries.
