What would be the most epic classic RPG if remade?

Deathykins · 2009-06-21T19:35:31+00:00

If a classic RPG (PS1 and earlier) were to be remade, what would be the best one? If you have more than one tied, you may list them. Also, try to give a reason to keep a real discussion going instead of just a random list of RPGs. This does not necessarily have to be your favorite game, as some would turn out better than others simply due to the amount of emotion they could add that held the games back in the past. My personal vote, goes for Final Fantasy 7. I am replaying this game now, and unlike most, it is NOT my favorite FF. I honestly think it's one of the worst. It clashes with it's own story when you put together all the prequels and sequels, and it majorly lacks the emotion that it strives so hard to achieve. If they remade it, I'm sure they would tie up lose ends in the story. As for the emotion. SPOILER if you have not finished, or at least gotten half way through Disc 2: Spoiler:After you escape Junon as Tifa after Cloud loses himself and gives Sephiroth the Black Materia. You can tell they are trying to make you really feel for Tifa, but the lack of graphics for real facial expressions, and being unable to hear the sadness in her voice ruins it. Then when you get to the village where he is in the clinic, first hearing he is there, Tifa runs off screaming his name, so happy he is okay. I imagined this scene in my head with current gen graphics and the level of emotion they could have added to it, the entire time it was playing. I imagined a sudden change in the tone in Tifa's voice, her face turning red and eyes starting to brim over with tears as she ran to see him. Anyways, there is my opinion. Now let's hear everyone elses. :D

Baulder's Gate or Diablo, anyone? Those were epic RPGs, even if Baulder's Gate felt exactly like D&D at times. Also Ultima Online shits on WoW if we're counting MMOs.

Thank you, even if you spelled "Baldur's" wrong.

I'd love to see a new classic D&D game, but seeing how Obsidian were able to fuck up the NwN games with NwN2, and people now seeming to want their games to be less RPG and more action (a la Dragon Age) I grief the death of classic D&D based RPG's.

I dont think Baldur's Gate needs a remake. I love it just the way it is. I mean, it looks crappy, and most of the time you cant hear the characters voices, but so fucking what? D: Yeah, good looking games are great and all, but I love my crappy looking games that I played many many years ago :< And back in the days when voice acting was new in games, I hated it! Maybe mostly because especially then the voice actors were crappy as hell. Yes good graphics and voice acting add more depth to the game but by using your own imagination even that scene OP mentioned about FFVII is great and full of emotions.

IMAGINATION!

[size=10](but dont get me wrong, most of the new games would suck without voice acting and their good graphics, all I'm saying is that not all games need them)[/h]

I think that they should do a more updated version of Final Fantasy VI. How many updates has Final Fantasy IV had already? And I like VI better. Eh, it just seems to make more sense then milking the same game completely dry.

I would like to see Faxanadu remade for the 3DS e-shop or something like that. I don't care about seeing well known RPG games remade because they usually add extra content and most of it isnt always welcome.

I have a feeling no one knows what this game is..

I would like to see the Lunar games remade, as well as the Chrono series. Lunar Eternal Blue was great, the in-game anime sequences were fantastic and drew me further into the story, loved the music as well.
