While I haven’t quite forgiven them for their disgraceful remake of Shadow of the Colossus (and from what I understand, Demon’s Souls is a similar situation) this is sad news nonetheless.

You mean their glorious remake of Shadow of the Colossus?

No! It’s the great video game replacement, where a new team of developers completely changes the visual expression of the original work without bringing anything new and meaningful to the experience. They don’t understand that the constraints the original was made under is an important part of the art. The atmosphere and experience of playing the 2018 version will never be equal nor superior to playing the original, just like watching a replica of Mona Lisa won’t be the same as seeing the original.

The existence of the remake alone may be inoffensive at best, had Sony actually decided to make the original easily available. They have not.
