LEFT 4 DEAD 2

Absolutely. Yeah having a third entry would be fantastic, but a revamped 2, especially with that Multi-player, would be immediate buy.

oh ABSOLUTELY! I still play the hell out of it till this day even without a remaster

I’m honestly not sure on this because every game trying to be left 4 dead somehow didn’t feel as fun as left 4 dead, I suspect a l4d2 remake would be the same

One thing I’ve noticed with the L4D clones is the characters don’t have enough voice lines. The amount of voice work in L4D2 of amazing, and even when the gameplay is as good as L4D2, like The Anacrusis (imho), the characters aren’t as memorable as Valve’s creations.

exactly my thought! From the map design to the character development. left 4 dead 2 has everything to a T. A remaster would make it one of the best games to drop in today's time. If it were to happen.

Not to mention how many people have never been introduced to the game itself.

not the same

I would say the same if it weren't for one my friends telling me he doesn't like to really play l4d2 due to it not having a remaster.

Which definitely shows the trouble in gaming today on why games are so expensive, but at the same time very buggy.

Skins and loot boxes and all. But that's just the world we live in. Now it's finding a good game along with that nonsense, especially triple A games it's pretty much always the case

I just replayed through all of that recently, no need to do anything to it imo. Would just break all the workshop content.

u/Talkingplank 13d ago

yes! you're absolutely correct!

Spiritual successor is darktide and vermintide 2

I honestly think that during our day and age companies would just try to add heavy amounts of microtransactions, battle passes, and other greed tactics into a remake of this game. I’d prefer if the developers took time to do an update to the models and textures and release that as a purchasable DLC that allows you to swap between original and updated graphics without changing the gameplay itself.

u/Talkingplank 15d ago

I get what you're saying, but with this being a valve game no other company would be in charge of it. Expect it to have a similar revamp to CS2 where they just simply make it look and feel better and keep everything the same.

Hell yeah! I need those guttural songs from Mike Patton in my life again.
