    Is anyone even asking for that?

    3d isometric RPGs don’t really need mind-blowing graphics.

    That’s pretty much the reason early games were 3d isometric RPGs…

      Modern isometrics with updated controls are really fucking good though. I’d rather games that are 20 years or older get remasters vs games that launched 5 years ago

        with updated controls

        They were point and click games…

        I’m pretty sure there’s been mods for controller support for a while now. But there’s nothing you can add to the game to significantly improve it, that wouldn’t significantly change it

        Unless you’re talking about whatever it is Square Enix is doing with FF7.

        I mean, I’d probably buy it if it was for fo2, but I’d be pretty grumpy about it and wouldn’t call it a remake.

    There’s a lot of quality of life issues with the first two games. Plenty of room to make just a couple UI changes while keeping the rest of the game the same.

    Too bad they don’t have the original source to work from, because they’re basically going to have to remake it from the ground up just to make a couple minor changes, and that’s just not worth it.

      I’d just like an iOS/android port. Those games would be fantastic on a tablet with touch controls.

      Edit: didn’t really intend this to be a comment reply. I didn’t realize source files were unavailable. That would make a port unreasonable.
