RE: looks like blood is getting remastered...
"So basically they remaster games from the 90s using an engine that looks like it's from 2004?"
It's pretty insane the jump in graphics from Blood in 97 to Doom 3 in 04. Granted, Build was pretty dated by that point with Unreal being released the following year, but we haven't made such a drastic jump since.
I'm not really sure what kind of graphics a remastered/remade Blood needs. I think part of the feel of the original was the unfiltered textures giving it a gritty lo-fi look. I've long thought that the texture filtering used by the original Unreal's software renderer would have maintained that part of the style while simultaneously making it less ugly and dated. Now I'm curious what HD textures would look like unfiltered.
