It's a 2h game. I played it in about 2 hours, completed it, loved every minute spent playing it. It really doesn't need a remake, ffs.

And then making it multiplayer.

I am pretty sure whoever came up with that idea has never played the game.

Which in itself is embarrassing since it's 2-3h long hahaha.

Aaaand off the wishlist it goes.

Here's the late TB piece on the original game: WTF Is... - Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons ?

I got 4 mins into that video and I want to play it. I love unique games. Also, the same devs that did the Reddick game? Fuckng yes please.


E. So I got it, and played a bit. There's zero reason to remake this. The graphics are fine, the sound is good. Animations are great. It's a puzzle game that has a ton of charm immediately.

The controls are something different, and at times it kinda feels like these kids are doing thier own thing lol. There's such a strange disconnect it causes that I think works great for the setting of two brothers trying to do things together. I wonder how it is on the Switch playing with another person (which you would not be able to do on any other system, unless you wanted to hotseat a keyboard. Not a good idea).

Checking out what you can do in the environment is fun, just messing around. Exploring is neat and will give you some chuckles. Seems cool!

Nahh you can also hotseat a controller or use two controllers and have the input from one as the left joystick and the input from second as the right joystick on PC like I did

Any time I hear about this game, I always remember how much TB adored it. Thanks for posting this!

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

Why would you even consider remaking anything that recent?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Worked with the last of us

[–] [email protected] 27 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You mean you haven't enjoyed the three or four remasters of the "The Last of Us"?

[–] [email protected] 43 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Should be called "The Latest Of Us"

[–] [email protected] 4 points 8 months ago

That's a damn good joke 😂
