@SteffoSpieler@fellies.social Yeah, but I feel, the difference between a remake and a reimagining is sort of ... marketing.
Starfox Zero had the same mission and the same story as Starfox 64, just with new boss fights and alternative scenes here and there. Not too different what they do with the new game. Most called it a remake, because... that's what it is. And with Starfox 64 already being a remake of the SNES original, it's just crazy how much effort has gone over the years, to tell the same story, with the same characters, now five times. I just want them to finally move on.

@Hatwolf@meow.social I don't disagree that the topics are mostly used for marketing, but the difference is (for me as a developer at least) definitely not. Marketing almost always lumps these terms together, and that's not great. Regarding having the same story five times now... yeah, that's probably bad. I'll definitely be happy to be able to play that game on my Switch 2 soon, with some cute furries and an easy mode. Maybe this is a test by Nintendo if people are still interested in Star Fox? Or maybe not. 🤷♂️
