    Maybe an unpopular meaning, but actually I don't want remasters. Maybe a remake is a better solution. Earlier today I post this in another thread:

    "Today I installed TSW3 together with the old routes from TSW1 and TSW2. Bought recently a key on a online marketplace, never tried the basegame of TSW3 before. Everything is working fine and for the first time I was able to do a run on the non remastered version of Dresden - Riesa. Men, how on earth did they manage to ruin this route so badly. It always felt there was something off with this route, color of trees, contrast and a cartoony look overall. Well, the original route looks great with natural colors, it's a bit darker, but by moments it feels like watching a vid of the real thing."

    Newer routes made with TOD4 lighting from scratch do look better then the remastered Dresden - Riesa route. In general TOD4 is a mixed bag for me, can look great in curtain moments of the day but on other moments it can look more unnatural. Once a route is remastered, you can only play the original on a older version of the game, which require multiple versions installed. So a remake, maybe in a more modern setting, can solve this as the original remains the same.
