After seeing Thief Remastered, I’m calling it: That doomed Deux Ex remaster should get rebooted with Nightdive in charge

Nightdive Studios is remastering Thief: The Dark Project, showcasing it at the PC Gaming Show with a nostalgic trailer and modern enhancements. The remaster will preserve the game's medieval settings and improve low-poly NPC designs, along with including a DVD extras menu featuring art, prototypes, and behind-the-scenes footage. In contrast, Aspyr's remaster of Neverwinter Nights 2 added essential features like Steam Deck support and resolved bugs, while their upcoming Deus Ex remaster lacks significant upgrades and has received negative feedback from fans. Both Thief and Deus Ex are part of The Embracer Group, which is observing the reception of these remasters. Aspyr has faced challenges, including losing the Knights of the Old Republic remake and legal issues with Disney. The Deus Ex remaster has been indefinitely delayed, raising concerns among fans about its management and future.

Gothic devs are ‘monitoring the sentiment about lockpicking,’ promise a PC patch for crashes by Monday

Gothic's recent remake has generated mixed feelings among players, particularly regarding its revamped lockpicking system. The new mechanic has led to confusion, with players discussing its complexity on platforms like Reddit. One user explained that the lockpicking involves moving multiple plates in a specific order, which can be challenging for newcomers. A contributor expressed frustration with the system, stating it diminished their enjoyment of the game, although they acknowledged it is an improvement over the original. Developer Alkimia responded to community concerns, indicating they are monitoring feedback and considering adjustments, including making the system easier as players invest skill points. The backlash reflects a tradition in RPGs where challenging minigames, like lockpicking, are seen as a rite of passage.
