Desaturated yellowed colors. Faces look like plastic androids. At least the remaster greater resolution can be noticed on the vegetation, but I wouldn't accept the trade-off. This gameplay footage from the "old" original would look a lot better on a fast PC. It did on mine, like a lot better.
I'm sorry the original looks way better. Why is the new one washing out all the contrast and shadows?
"Oh boy, as if this game needs a re–"
The skin itself looks better/softer with subsurface scattering… but for some reason they removed all the art-directed shadows and washed out the color palette. So it's lost lots of dramatic effect.
I mean the PS5 enhanced update of the normal game is already good enough with 2160c 60fps, that shoul've been there too, otherwise, of course this remaster is better than the ps4.
The improvement at 5:38 is wild
ITS A REMASTER, JUST BACKWARDS
Why does it look worse? They’ve removed the cinematic colour pallet and removed shadows.. I’m hoping those things don’t magically reappear on the ps5 pro version…
Remaster = different color tone and day time😂😂
I’m struggling to see how it’s a remaster
the graphic of the environment seems better, but the meaty details of the old one seems way better, well one in and one out, maybe I will not buy it.
the original is purposely setting up to Low settings. Lag and low res, while the remastered recorded with Smooth and high res. this isn't fair comparison!
Newer more vibrant
Remaster =Shadows off Details Off Particles very low Saturation High
they did such a great job on graphics the first time around that i personally don't see an improvement on the remaster, mb just a bit better water physics
At the start…. Surely you’ve got the clips the wrong way round?!? 😂
This is definitely not a remaster at all. It's basically a lighting change. A lot of the fine quality like armor and even skin are far less detailed. I liked the constant motion of the grass which is now gone too, in favour of grass that only moves whe you touch it. The biggest downgrade is actually the requirement of Playstation Network which Sony wants to prop up its failing and falling numbers after raising the price of PS Plus so much. This really just looks like a colour filter and some lighting changes with tons of extra fog and bloom. I don't think it's even worth the $10 upgrade from the original. Maybe the biggest crime is that Aloy looks way more androgynous in the remaster.
Thank god I watched this before upgrading. The original is far superior, washed out colors, lightened shadows, lots of fog hiding stuff, it's all downgrades.
It's strange. The original game was so good that I can hardly tell the difference. Except when it comes to close ups of faces. Remastered Aloy looks insanely beautiful.
Thoes who stand by Ps5 version never owned a Ps4pro to see how amazing it looks, because they had their first console during pandemic😂
prefer the look of the old. some of these remasters for new hardware just go too far. I like better frame rates and glitch/bug repair, not necessarily some of the asthetics like faces and scenery which come off overly brightened, smooth out and a little into the uncanny valley moreso than the origs. oh well, can't stop money.
The original had a purple tint. Glad to see that the remastered version fixes this.
They getting lazy asf at Sony.
we need uncharted,god of war complete remastered,not this one..
I'm sorry, this is a 2 steps forward, 3 steps backwards thing.
While some textures are prettier in the remastered version, namely the colour palette seems more natural in the original compared to the almost cartoonish remastered style.
And even if you don't consider this facelift a net loss: Are those remasters really the most efficient way to spend your resources in order to make your customers happy?
old is gold. f**k remastered version
Horizon Zero Dawn: RESHADE
This ain't a remaster, it's a selling gimmick for PS5 pro
the whole intro is far superior in original..
I'm just going to say it……….This didn't need a remaster. Nothing really wrong with it but they could have chosen so many other titles that were actually old like PS2 or PS3 title.
Sony be like : lets remaster the high graphic game
