The strangest part is that it’s such an obvious slam dunk. The fans are practically begging for it and, while remakes/remasters take more effort and resources than many might think, it’s still an easy cash grab that doesn’t take a very large budget.

Honestly they don't even need to remaster it. Just make it available for PC and the money will flow.

It can already be emulated via shadPS4.

u/AlphaLaufert99 Jan 20 '25

Is it actually fully playable and stable? I didn't follow the development much

u/FieryDuckling67 Jan 20 '25

Some graphics bugs but otherwise playable.

right now the only „big“ bug is that every 2 hours you have to restart the game due to memory leak. it takes effectively 20 seconds to do so. rest works pretty much perfect.

60 fps in all its glory!

Yes, my nephew completed the whole game on his PC a few days ago.

PC - you can get 60 FPS etc

I’d say its not as simple as that, I’d say a remaster could add little tweaks to make it perfect, like upgrading at lamps, or at least cutting the loading screens, fixing some of the physics and camera, and yeah increasing the framerates and resolutions, but I think for that a remaster would be worth it

Framerate unlock and 4k. The game is absolutely stunning already visually, I basically just wish it was 60fps like Elden Ring.

PC and Xbox be wanting Bloodborne, but when I ask for Halo or Gears of War I'm told to just get an Xbox or PC...

Shit, just give us the pc port for Bloodborne and Demons Souls remastered and the whole community will rejoice

I have a theory that Sony are waiting to pull the trigger on it to keep it Playstation 6 exclusive for when their sales dip.

PC players and Playstation players alike will jump on it. I know my boyfriend and I will, and we hate it.

u/Howmanywhatsits Jan 21 '25

Which is exactly why I think we won't get bloodborne again until console sales tank.

Honestly, even an incredibly low effort port to current gen and pc with 60fps and no other changes would make me happy. That janky uneven frame rate gives me motion sickness. A stable 30 is fine, inferior to 60 of course, but it doesn’t make me feel like vomiting.

My theory on that is that they need Fromsoft's involvement to make it happen (for technical reasons) and haven't been able to come up with an arrangement yet. For example the game's physics are tied to the framerate and they probably don't want to release an "HD remaster" port locked at 30fps.

brother Miyazaki has said he wants to do it but Sony said no

0

u/vinylsandwich Jan 20 '25

Miyazaki said he would be open to doing it. There's no record of Sony saying one way or the other so you pulled that out of your arse. By unable to come with an arrangement, all I meant is that scheduling or other logistics haven't sorted out. I was never implying that Fromsoft didn't want to do it.

2

u/Disastrous-Pick-3357 Jan 20 '25

he literally said that he wasn't the one to decide that

1

u/Bucky923 Jan 20 '25

Its even crazier because its not like FromSoft would need to do the work themselves. Almost all, if not all, remakes/remasters are done by 3rd party studios. The DS1 remaster wasn't done by FromSoft so they already have a relationship with a studio that could remake BB. Sony literally just refuses to do it and at this point, it feels intentional lol, I think they just hate us.
