How are you feeling that they changed "problematic" funny lines?
Sam & Max Remastered
Not as upset that bosco sounds worse then I could have imagined
The world becomes a darker place
College students are truly the most oppressed people.
They did? Sauce?
They changed some of his lines, here's the ones I noticed:
Episode 1
Original dialogue:
It's the latest in BoscoTech inovation, it'll clear out a room of militant college students in no time, guaranteed.
New dialogue:
It's the latest in BoscoTech inovation, it'll clear out a room in no time, guaranteed.
Episode 2
Original dialogue:
Oh no, the Skinbodies are like Skinheads, but ten times worse!
New dialogue:
Oh no, the Skinbodies are like those horrible hairless cats, but ten times worse!
They also changed the license plate of that car parked next to the Desoto
Original: DRG DLR
New: RMS DLR
And, in the other episodes, when you click on some objects, Max still has the old voice from episode 1 (unlike the original).
Episode 3
Original dialogue:
You may call me, Jean-Francois Sissypants, the cowardly French anarchist.
New dialogue:
You may call me, Jean-Francois Bonde-A-Part, the new wave French anarchist.
Which doesn't make sense, considering Sam & Max still call him "Sissypants"
Episode 4:
I didn't notice any change in the dialogue so far, but the time estimate for the missile to hit Krypton does not show up (might be a bug).
Episode 5:
They changed one of Bob's line
Original dialogue:
Take our complimentary goggles designed for special-needs children so that the little ones can play along.
New Dialogue:
Take our complimentary wide-fit goggles designed for playing while bicycling or enjoying full-contact sports!
Original dialogue:
It's 'cause everyone on the internet has to pick an avatar, like a dwarf or an orc or an hot young fifteen-year- old girl curious about the adult world and willing to experiment.
New Dialogue:
It's cause everyone on the internet has to pick an avatar, like a dwarf or an orc or a troll... But we've got enough trolls.
Wow, why though? They are not really that offensive or anything, I think sending feedback to the team who is remastering the games is important, no reason at all to change these lines.
>eat the bugs hands typed that
Sucks that they lied during the pre release time and only know players are knowing about the changes. The Steam thread about it is on fire, and rightly so.
Empty. Same way I fell about everything.
>You may call me, Jean-Francois Sissypants, the cowardly French anarchist
>You may call me, Jean-Francois Bonde-A-Part, the new wave French anarchist.
If the original didn't have the anarchist part, this line would've been completely unchanged. what faggots
Literally seething. I've always wanted a remaster of Sam and Max, and when I finally got it, it's pozzed
More:
They also removed a lot of dialogue, such as:
1-"Why the sex change"
Sam: Mind telling us how you came to be a woman?
Max: Did you use lasers, or just do it the old-fashioned way?
Bosco: Are you sassin' me? Boy I'll whup your behind so hard you won't be able to see straight!
Max: But I don't see out of my behind.
Bosco: You will after I get through with you!
2- "How's life as a woman?"
Sam: So how are those BoscoTech breasts holdin' up?
Bosco: Oh, these are all natural, honey.
Max: I'm not gonna lie, I like 'em bosomy.
Bosco: Oh, Max, you take after your father.
Max: Okay, you just crossed the line, pal!
Sam: Easy Max, theoretically, we have even more disturbed people to worry about right now.
On one hand I’m annoyed they changed it and fucked with a great product. On the other hand I understand the market has changed and a small company wouldn’t wanna have headlines going “x game is faggot phobic” and hell even if they had the retarded Zig Forums mindset of being “based” they’d probably end up loosing possible sales/investors/money and have bad PR. Like you can appeal to the trumptard crowd but they don’t buy game or at least in huge degree they flock to throw money at the fat retard and his merch, so I doubt that it would put for them
>Sam: Easy Max, theoretically, we have even more disturbed people to worry about right now.
The irony.
Forget the old fans, they're a thing of the past. Say hello to your NEW generation of non-bigoted Sam & Max fans!
"It's only a few small changes, you'll barely even notice!"
Some of these lines are replaced with no jokes at all. Like the new line about the goggles has no punch to it. It just a normal bland line, in a series known for its humor.
You're seeing the fabled "leftist humor" in action.
>it’s the CURRENT YEAR
When are we just going to start lynching these people in the streets
shit, saved me a sale. forgot this was coming out, shame it came to this.
they spent most of the year burning cities down and we did nothing
ain't nobody touching these faggots
bump
Too bad Zig Forums won't care about this since it's not Japanese.
Zig Forums cares a disproportionate amount about early telltale considering they're basically bargain bin releases
The only one that I can see why it was changed was the special needs children line.
Everything else is so fucking tame
>We heard that you changed some jokes?
>Nope, not true. By the way we changed some jokes.
>nope, not true
>the devs literally cut out certain conversations with Bosco in episode 6.
I can't believe these faggots continue to blatantly lie to people even after getting called for lying when the game first released.
It's amazing these people are pushing for more story heavy games, while complete neutering the content of a story all because it MAY make people offended.
> I'm so glad you changed something successful so it's tailor made for me
> we're so bad at coming up with our own IPs
It's lame, but there are still plenty of amusing lines in the game. Bosco's new voice is unfortunate though.
I honestly feel bad for fov, she was probably fed dirty lies as well.
The dumbest part about this change is that Max still calls Bosco "Sissypants" anyway, and what a surprise, nobody who reviewed the remaster actually gives a shit.
All the devs accomplished with these "alterations" was shooting itself in the foot by annoying the already niche fanbase Sam and Max have managed to maintain over the years.
Are they really trying to pretend like the mid-00s were full of racism and hate?
I'm not buying it and it's make me more cautious of remaster and remakes
The 2000s were much more racially harmonious than today’s race war world.
>t. Boomer
If it wasnt 10 bucks i wouldnt have considered it.
I still love the later episodes
Why change cowardly to "new wave"?
They pretend like last week was full of racism and hate, I really don't see why this surprises you.
That's the thing that gets me. People saying things like that were usually in diapers in the 00s. They don't know what the hell they're talking about.
Annoyed, don't really care though.
Not when the massacred Bosco
Oh, they know. Don't you remember Sam saying this in the original version?
>jumping judaism max, something's increasing the suicide rate by 41%!
> more inclusive
> less people are willing to play the game now
Something else I noticed was that Max mentions in episode 5 how Bosco always refers to them as foo', which no longer makes any sense since the new VA never say foo' in his lines. Apparently a black guy calling someone "fool" is racist now?
You don't want to make fun of the communist. That would be rude
Pretending to be Mr. T is very problematic.
You fuckheads constantly push the OMG 2020 SUX meme but use the current year to justify censorship?
what does that even mean, how did they not know?
So nine individual lines of dialogue and two dialogue options across six episodes then?
Was anything actually significant changed?
They could have just completely rewrote the lines and added jokes that reflect modern times but they had to fucking botch and poz them almost as a fuck you to original fans of the game.
They replaced Bosco, with a raspy parrot screaming through a tin can.
>because it MAY make people offended
it offends the developers
Not going to support literal racism of replacing a guy because "he wasn't the right skin color" or censoring comedy.
Probably just the social media person being in the dark together with us.
>Sam: Easy Max, theoretically, we have even more disturbed people to worry about right now.
based?
imagine how much happier the average Zig Forumsirgin would be if they had a giant cave they could go to to scream NIGGER at the top of their lungs and listen to it echo back at them
They were definitely around then, but sucking BBC wasn't mandatory in the 2000s therefore it is equivalent to Nazism.
Bosco's VA was changed to an actual black guy.
The new Voice is kinda awful, but if you never played the originals it's probably fine.
I have the original. Fuck the changes. Fan will port the textures over to the original if needed.
