Remastered is aesthetically different enough that it shouldn't be considered preservation of the original game. We deserve reasonable access to the original Dark Souls on PC.

The original Dark Souls should be on gog, the remastered version is cool and all, but prepare to die edition has some things that make the game feel different. In my opinion the game should be brought to gog so fans of the saga can experience the true Dark Souls

I wanted to get into this game so badly and started a run in a copy of Prepare to Die edition I borrowed on Steam from a friend. Then, not only did library share get phased out, Prepare to Die got taken off the store front, so I have this game installed on my drive but I can't even play it! Madness, the original version of Dark Souls should be available to all regardless of it being "outdated;" the Mario games on NES are technically outdated by Mario All Stars on SNES, and you don't see Nintendo forcing us to play only All Stars if we want that experience!
More people need to be able to play this original version of Dark Souls without having to resort to piracy or paying 10,000,000 dollars for Steam Keys. The servers don't even exist anymore without mods, Namco literally has nothing to lose.
The Souls games are my favorite series of games ever. Dark Souls Remastered is awesome, but as many fans know, it's barely a remaster. Experiencing the original Dark Souls should be something that everyone should be able to do without needing to pirate it. You can't gatekeep art because a "better" version was released.
Многие говорили что игра сложная, она не прощает ошибок. Из сложного было ложе хаоса и добраться до некоторых боссов сложнее чем победить боса. Игру нужно сохранить по адекватной цене а не за 100+$

Shadow Hearts: From the New World
Shadow Hearts: From the New WorldShadow Hearts: From the New World is the third official game in the Shadow Hearts series. The game series departs from Europe and centers on the "New World", the Americas. It is not directly related to the previous games in the series but it occurs in the same universe. The main characters' quest is to investigate mysterious "windows" from which vicious monsters pop out. Gameplay follows that of its predecessors, using the Judgment Ring to decide most battle outcomes, as well as many other actions throughout the game. A new "Stock" system was made for this game which expands the combination attack system between party members from Shadow Hearts - Covenant and enables double attacks. The "Stock" system works by filling up a character's stock gauge when he/she performs or receives an attack. A maximum of two stock gauge may be stored. Stock can then be utilized in many ways. For example, doing a Double attack (a character performs two action on the same turn) or starting a Combo consumes one Stock. A Double Combo on the other hand consumes two Stock. The Judgment Ring system essentially remains the same from Shadow Hearts: Covenant, with ring customization and added ring effect items being still available. Magic returns in the form of Stellar Charts, where characters equip Stellars onto the chart. The charts are based on the constellations of the twelve zodiac signs. Finding and fitting all the Stellars onto the charts rewards the player with the Melt Crest Stellar, the strongest non-elemental magic in the game. Fusion is also back in the game, albeit quite differently. Unlike Yuri, Shania does not possess the power of the Harmonixer where she is able to fuse into different demons. She makes spirit pacts with the different Guardian Spirits and draws on their power to transform. Shania is only able to fuse into four forms but through acquiring fetishes; statues of different animals, she is able to learn different techniques by powering them up. Snapping photos is more emphasized in this game. Not only can Johnny obtain enemy data through his photographing enemies, he can also trade the snap cards obtained for prizes. Johnny can also draw upon the power of Malice to transform; though this ability comes rather late in the game.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.
