I wish REmake faced the same scrutiny other remakes do, it destroys the art direction of the original game in more blatant ways than most.

And yet all I hear is "OMG 10/10 remake it's so much better than the original!"

I agree that the original is better, but OoT is probably the only Zelda game with blood in it and I don't think we'll ever see another. Hell, even on the N64, later revisions censored Ganondorf's blood by changing it from red to green and changed the Fire Temple's music (which is why I only play 1.0). It got censored further starting with the Gamecube versions where they changed the Gerudo symbol. It's not like it started with the 3DS. N64 1.0 is the only version that's not ruined in some way

Why aren't games allowed to have blood? Do they think 10 year old's don't know what blood is somehow?

>> No.9749278

>>9749254
Because humans are hard-wired to trigger their fight or flight response at the sight of blood. Kids don't have the same control over it as adults do, so they tend to freak right the fuck out when their adrenaline starts pumping. That's why blood is generally left out of kids media.

Back in 2019 my friend showed me this remake while I was sleeping on the couch and he was in total awe of it, kept mumbling about how detailed and all it looked. Then he handed me the controller expecting me to be as in awe as he was and to desperately wanna play it but I was just like "nah man I'm good" and fell back asleep. That was when I realized he had no sense of aesthetics.

It’s a ratings thing, if I remember right after a certain point in time blood automatically raised a game’s rating to at least T. Companies were worried about kid friendly games losing sales due to parents not wanting their kid to play anything rated higher than E, so blood was kept out.

The only thing I like better from the DS version in OP's pic is the background from Wet Dry World. The water effect looks comfy, and the town blends in better with the rest of the background.
I agree with just about everything else, however.

1.1 isn't ruined. It still has the original fire temple music and red blood. The only visible change beyond bug fixes is the updated N64 logo when you start the game. 1.2 is where the censorship happened.

I think they hid him in shadow because they were ashamed of that dogshit design.

Play the real deal instead.
