'• Remakes, remasters, definitive editions, or anything of the sort should also not be listed separately from their original release.
       • However, certain remakes that differ from the original considerably are allowed. This includes, for example, the Resident Evil remakes and the Metroid remakes. This works on a game-by-game basis - if you're unsure about a specific title, ask me!'

@mZuzek How do you want me to list Diablo II Resurrected? Separately or as one with the original Diablo II?

Hmm, I'm out of the loop on that one but assumed it was only a remaster, does it change a lot from the original? The criteria has been to list mostly every remake/remaster alongside the original unless they deviate very significantly. But, I haven't played every game and their remasters, so it can get pretty arbitrary sometimes.

The remakes that are getting listed separately are the likes of Final Fantasy VII Remake or the Metroid/RE remakes as mentioned before, whereas some remakes that change a good bit but are still listed alongside the originals are the Pokémon remakes or Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy. There's probably better examples though, I'm just picking them off the top of my head.

It is likely that I add Age of Empires 2 Definitive Edition to my list.

While it is essentially the same game at heart, there have been substantial changes since the Original. From doubling the civ count, to adding annoying mechanics.

I assume it will count as the original.

Combining them is fine by me - makes it easier for me to rank. Not sure where I'd place D2R on its own.

above or below the WC3R?

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

Heh ;)

I could never get into WarCraft III, so Reforged was never on my radar. Resurrected is definitely a more thoughtful and attractive remaster than that though, albeit one currently plagued by server issues. I'm really bloody glad Vicarious Visions did the remaster itself and not Blizzard proper.

fun fact: Somehow D2R launch fucked with WC3R since people suddenly cant invite friends into custom games anymore.
outside of this and the horrible reviews im satisfied with the reforged/resurrected products, people like to complain but the OG games in 4k didn't age well

I'll post my list, eventually. Before the end.
