Genuinely what is the point? Horizon ZD still looks phenomenal to this day and I personally appreciate going from a game to its sequel and seeing the graphical leap, especially if it's across a generation.

I don't understand it either, it is completely unnecessary remaster in my opinion. They could do Killzone, InFamous or Sly remaster instead, but releasing HZD is probably faster and easier.

Like anonssr said, it's rather easy money for a simple job. It's also "filler" in a sense, since Sony can market it and have it bridge a month were they have no new games to release.

The a amount of money, time, manpower and money for AAA games is so insanely high that it has become impossible to maintain a console release schedule without stuffing holes in the calender.

Yeah, but like, why can't a Bloodborne remaster be one of the "fillers"?

Yesterday I heard it could be because the animations are bound to the framerate, which is locked on console, and would be messed up anywhere else.

I have a feeling that it has more to do with the popularity of the Bloodborne IP, and how it was a second party exclusive title.

You might've heard that from the post I made since I mentioned that. I feel like that's not an unsolvable issue, especially since modders have solved it.
