Playing it, loving it!

Hero mode is kicking my ass and I'm loving it.

Stop being so unrealistic, do you expect them to do a full remake of the game now? Dont you realize that would be almost as expensive as a new whole zelda game? It makes sense for you to waste years of some of the main Nintendo studios and dozens of milions in a remake of twilight princess?? Because I rather that effort put into another thing, like the new zelda or the next Metroid, but not TP.

As a remaster is as good as it can be, and has way way way more changes from the original than the average remaster, so i dont see why is not worth 50$, is not up to you to decide that, when I go to see a movie I pay always the same price independently of how was the budget of the film or the time they needed to film it, so I dont understand why people gives always so much importance about that in videogames, is the product worth it? Thats the question, and nothing else more, does the people thinks a full remaster of TPHD with all the improvements they have done is worth 50$? Sales and public reception will give us the aswer, but I would say is a big YES.

What exactly is the difference between an HD port and a remaster? What does TLOU do over TPHD to receive the remaster moniker?

Just as I remember from 10 years ago - an awesome game. The remake has great new textures and the gamepad functionalites are also a great addition. I also like collecting the Miiverse stamps.
However, I wish they would have done more to the character models and shading...

I played it for a while this morning. I've only played the Wii version of the game in the past, so playing with standard controls does feel a lot different, but I do like it more this way. I don't notice much in the difference of graphics so far, though I don't really have an eye for that anyway. Resolution looks nice on a big screen, though textures are still pretty flat. Grassy areas still look like giant green rocks, and I'm still not a big fan of the character artstyle.

On a more positive note, I'm really glad that Hero Mode is available at the start, as I remember this game being pretty easy the first time around. Lots of little changes that make the game more enjoyable, like a bigger wallet and lantern oil meter. For me it's well worth the price, but I'm also a big Zelda fan. Still an excellent game, and I'm enjoying playing the definitive version.

I was thinking about starting on Hero Mode, but, fuck, I haven't played the game non-mirrored, so I don't want to play the game mirrored, again! XDD

Remaster is really  just a prettier word for port as far as games are concerned

It's only 10 days...

Lol, I remember when I ordered a game case from Club Nintendo, took about a month. I was jumping when it came into my mailbox.

So I did get around to picking up my copy today.

Played for 2 hours and I'm at the Hyrule Castle now. Needless to say, the game's genius, though the good part's obviously still to come. The amiibo, my first actually, looks great, of high quality. These things are cool as figurines. Speaking of this remaster; the picture is very, very clear. Textures are sharp. I could actually see what some characters really look like now! Shadows are sharp as well.

It does have some issues though. In those 2 hours, I've already seen multiple cases of minor glitching in the same shadows. It also suffers from framerate drops, which, considering I don't remember either the Wii or GC version doing that, is pretty disappointing.
