Is a 'cheeky tease' coming at EA Play? [No it isn't]

The only teaser we need.

Sorry! Couldn't help myself

I haven't been impressed with the remasters I've seen or heard about thus far. I'm not sure why there is such a clamor for them, to be honest.

Skyrim Special Edition has some enhancements and limited improvement with lighting, shadow, and blur, and stability improvements. Other than that, all of the same bugs are present. All of the old original textures have been upscaled -- badly -- and still look mostly terrible. They didn't add or change anything to the game itself.

With Bioshock it's much the same, including some terrible bugs like a sound issue that should have been fixed.

The new Neverwinter Nights is also the same. I've seen people suggest to not bother with this one at all and just buy the Diamond Edition from GOG, which is DRM-free and works well.

Has there been a remaster that is true to its name? One that makes an older game look better?

There is only ONE criteria that would get me to buy DAO/2 remasters: incorporating the DA Keep into DAA and DA2. (Even if it only reads from the Keep but doesn't write to it!)

With DAA, if you want to import your choices, you MUST play as your Warden, even if you did the Ultimate Sacrifice. I partly understand why they did this, but I don't want to play as my dead Warden just to see my choices import correctly. That is completely immersion-breaking for me. I do so wish I had the option to play as an Orlesian Warden + import, OR as my dead Warden (because I know there are players that would still want this choice).

This, then, further complicates the import into DA2, because I can't have an unbroken import chain from DAO>DAA>DA2. If I import my Orlesian Warden into DA2, my DAO choices will be those default choices in the DAA play (because I didn't import due to not wanting to play as my dead Warden). Importing a DAA save with certain choices is the only way to get the Nathaniel quest (and see your Warden sibling!). So now heading into a new DA2 play, I'm stuck deciding which is more important: importing from DAO and those choices (and related side quests that trigger), or importing a DAA save so I can do the Nathaniel quest.

Either way, having a dead Warden makes DAA and DA2 an irksome play experience because of these issues.

However, I highly doubt that that would ever happen, as that would take a lot of work in the game's guts. But if some miracle occurred and they did do this -- instant purchase.

Well, something Fallout-related anyway.

I can't get too excited as it almost certainly won't be FO5. More likely it's a remaster, SE, FO4 for Switch, or possibly a spin-off from another studio.

Made by a different studio and not in the main series (or so I've heard, I haven't played the game)

Edit: Also the series apparently isn't done, they just don't have the technology there yet for what they want to do with the next game - or atleast that's what I've read.
