Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake is still a good game, but a bad remake.The original was the debut project of Youssef Fares' team, and developments from it were developed both in his future projects (It Takes Two) and in the works of other studios (Little Nightmares, Reanimal).The peculiarity of the game is that you need to control two characters at the same time.
I can’t call a remake a remake.It's more of a mediocre remaster.Yes, the visual has been completely updated.But the original was highly stylized, and the new developers headed for hyperrealism, which does not fit well with the original animations.In addition, a lot of Unreal Engine 5 bugs have come out.
Gameplay-wise, Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake brought absolutely nothing to the table.You can’t skip cutscenes, saves are scattered unevenly, no one bothered to correct the crookedness of a number of mechanics (which Fares just refined in his later games).
But for some reason they added co-op, but not only is it meaningless, but it is implemented in one place... Because the controls are not normally adapted for either two gamepads or a keyboard.
All in all, a completely unnecessary re-release, considering that the original can be found for a very low price.Better take it.
P.S.In my opinion, Remake completely rewrote the soundtrack.And he got WORSE.
