Oh man this looks amazing!!
I've been playing a bunch of the original again in anticipation.

It's great to see the game running so smoothly. But it actually looks like it will be harder without any lag. There will be a lot more twitch reflexes involved to dodge some of those incoming attacks.

Right. I already see new enemy types and new items. Now I want it even though I haven't seen everything in the original version yet :/

I'm still curious about if there is going to be a 3ds version, especially after all the stuff the team has been showing secretly.

Idk if you're referring to this blog post when you say "the stuff the team has been showing secretly", if that's the case, you already know, if not, there's three links (one on a 3, one on a D, one on a S) who are redirecting to this private video where we can see a 3D effect on TBOI:R.

It will be free on launch for the PS4 and Vita if you have PS+. On Steam, previous owners will get a discount.

They could make better resolution the textures instead of just making them bigger which looks very pixely.

For PlayStation 4, PS Vita and even PC the native resolution is 480x272. Why such an odd resolution? Aside from being the most versatile resolution across PC and most consoles with semi-16:9 screen, this resolution is a good fit for pixel art AND lets us we get everything we need on-screen in Rebirth.

So yeah, it's deliberate, and it looks awesome.

Let's hope it has better optimization thaw WOTL poorly made on java.

No need to hope, it's a major point of the remake, the game will run at 60fps.

Like Borderlands 2 looks like the first Borderlands, but you have played B2 for twice the amount of hours you've played B1... that's what a sequel looks like, the "same" as the first one, but it's (usually) better.
And for the music... well, everybody doesn't have the same ears, so it sounds better for you, but I highly prefer the DannyB's music from the original Isaac.

first, thanks for the creep look at my profile but you were wrong, i actually played Borderlands 1 more than the 2nd one, you know, steam is not the only place to get games.
second i don't care about your music taste, but thanks for sharing.
finally, yes that is how sequels works, they suppose to add something different at least. from that video, of a beta (thing that i already state in the first comment) it doesn't look like a new thing, it looks like a re-boot on a new engine (what probably the title "rebirth" means) which is not a bad thing... but still, meh. i tough it was going to be a brand new approach to the original game. so probably i was wrong and this was supposed to be a re-boot an not a brand new game.
but still... meh

"second i don't care about your music taste, but thanks for sharing."
You don't care about the music taste of the other people, but you feel the need to share your taste:
"yeah it looks nicer the music is even better".
Mmh... okay, you have a too high level of rationality for me, I'm out.

Edmund doesn't want to spoil most of the new stuff, that's why he mostly showed enemies from the original. This was just a sneak peak of how the game looks and how well it runs.

It looks just like the first game...is it a DLC, or a new game?

And now people who bought isaac and then WOTL which made game unplayable (for me) will have to buy it again to have properly working version... yay.

Oh no, you mean a $5 Flash game that was made in 3 months wasn't very well optimized?

After over 150 hours played on the original BoI I want this, but I'd prefer Edmund to fix the bugs of the original.

That's probably not happening. Because of the way they build the game in the first place in flash, every time they fix even a small thing, large amounts of content just gets corrupted. It was never made with patching in mind. You can read/hear Edmund talking about it here/ here

Edmund's not the programmer, Florian is. Edmund can't fix or change any code, he's the designer.

5 months after the comment was posted? They probably already came to know everything they had to since the game is out already.

fine then. What are your thoughts on the notion that the classic game isn't completely left to rot with bugs and poor UI choices?

Can't wait to preoder this it looks absolutely amazing and the new music/atmosphere fits it really well + Edmund said it will run muuuuch smoother than the original

Looks the same as the original. Even suffers from the same frame loss issues.

That's because they don't want to spoil much of the new content, and because Youtube can't properly show it in the consistent 60 frames it runs in.
