Controversial opinion:

The point at which a video game should be remade/remastered is when the original user experience finally makes the game inaccessible to modern players.

Every 3D Zelda game before BotW has terrible UX and it's fine to redo them with modern controls and inventory management.

Also: we don't need a Skyrim remaster, but man I can't wait for one of the fifteen Morrowind remake projects to finish because it was one of my favorite games and it's completely unplayable in 2026.

@tess So many people say that about Morrowind. I've tried two or three times to get into it, and the age and general graphical jankiness has been a big barrier. I would love to play a modernized version.

I'm replaying Skyrim right now. I don't find its bugs endearing, it just pisses me off that Bethesda leaves so many games full of land mines for completionist players to navigate.

@marcfranz8 I put easily 200 hours into that game and I'm not sure I could play it now due to the jank.
