![]() I don't know about other people, but no matter what I do, I always try to do my best at it, even if it's a hobby or something I'm doing for free and for myself only.Īnd as a professional that actually gives a fuck about what I do and how my work affects others, I kinda feel insulted when I think of these hacks, who while being paid, still do such a shitty job on something that other people will buy with their hard earned cash. It truly boggles the mind how much little care the PC ports' developers put into it. ini file - even after 9 years, patches, users' fixes and workarounds readily available at 2K and Steam official forums, and the remasters still have the same problems as the original games. There are other solutions as well, which are for the original games and still work just needing to be adjusted to the remaster with a difference or two in the. Though it's sure to make some people feel nostalgic, just not sure it will be in a good way. What's worse is that some of the solutions/fixes for many of the problems in the remasters' versions are ones users made and shared with everyone including the developers and 2K many years ago, in the case of BioShock 1 that's 9 years ago!!!įor example, the remasters' horrible mouse acceleration and smoothing can be fixed by a solution from an user posted on 2K's official forums in 2007!Īnother solution for the remaster crashing every 5 minutes is to launch the game in Administrator mode with a 640 x 480 resolution, which while it works, makes the desktop and all other applications run at that resolution, which is beyond horrible. Yes, both remasters have a lot of problems, not only those from the original unpatched vanilla versions, but also new ones from the remasters, which is a very unique situation I don't think I have ever seen before in a remaster. In reply to Just read the users' reviews on Steam and some discussions' threads, sometimes it's really hard to believe how badly some PC versions end up. Like a "don't worry about the PC version, it doesn't matter" mentality. Perhaps these companies' main staff is composed of bad professionals who were bad students at college, or are paid so little with poor benefits that they just don't care at all if the work they're doing has quality or not and how it will affect customers who buy it.Įither way, this shit needs to stop as soon as possible, because right now so many bad PC ports are being released one after the other that it's really hard not to think that it has become a trend in developing PC ports. I'm not a software developer, but having learned at college how to code - and how not to code - it's really hard to believe in any other reason than "incompetence" for these badly ported games. It's really unbelievable how bad some PC ports are, seriously unbelievable. Thankfully, the original games are still available instead of being replaced completely - like other games were when a remaster came out, so one can play or replay the original games patched to the latest fix knowing they aren't losing much - if anything at all. These "remasters" even have the same bugs that were patched in the original games, it's like they just worked using the unpatched vanilla versions instead of the latest patched versions.Īnd in a lot of areas the "remasters" look worse than the originals, while in others it looks better, so it's not an overall better looking game, but a mix of best and worst looking.
