I think they should be more respectful to the original "photo real" look and not push into the cartoon look of Retros games. The dark and the grit is part of that trilogy.

Donkey Kong Country 2's Bramble Blast level remade in HD (fanmade)

This actually looks quite good, color me surprised. I instantly dismiss this kind of videos when suggested by YT.
One look at their channel and I realize this is the same person who made a recreation of Sonic & Knuckles' Mushroom Hill that I remember being very impressed by years ago, nice. I think people are missing the point by pointing out that it's not good enough to replace the original or whatever because it's clearly a proof of concept, hobbyist project instead of an actual attempt to remake the game, and even if that was the case this wouldn't be a final build and it effectively looks good enough to pass as an alpha of an official remake, which is definitely a nice accomplishment.

This is a bit of a bump, but this person is apparently continuing to remake DKC-related things.

They say they aren't making a game, but it sure makes you imagine what could be.

This vid reminds me of how kinda dopey Rambi looks in Retro's games.
He just always looked kind of off to me. I prefer his PAON incarnation, which is more faithful to his old Rare design.

Yeah I can see that. Paon did a good job acting as stewards of DKC characters before the revival.
I even enjoyed Barrel Blast.
Wow, nice.
Thanks for the bump, I was wondering if there would be more vids but I forgot about the channel.
'Competent at best'? What the fuck. Do you even know what goes into this?
'Drawing some generic textures' 'Rendering a few serviceable, recognizable, 3D models.' ????
And why do you have so many posts in this thread if you have nothing positive to say? I wonder.
