Really cool but there's something so nostalgic about those choppy PS1 cutscenes
You mean something very familiar with the design and the characters?
That gorgeous 12 fps
my guy didn’t know u fw medievil
I agree
Broooo exactly
In terms of gameplay and graphics: The Remake wins.
In terms of atmosphere and cinematography: The Original wins.
Well maybe but the PS4 remake still wins against PSP remake Medievil Resurrection.
Not that much of an accomplishment when any game made in the present day would look better than a game made years ago just like if they re-remake this in another 10 years that version will look better than this version.
James Dean To be honest, I really miss the *”Tim Burton”* vibe in the original PS1 Medievil.
gameplay was mostly untouched, basicaly this is only a graphic upgrade and i dare to say that it isnt stellar, not worthy of the legend the original was for sure
Gameplay on the PS4 remake feels more clunky then on the original imo.
Zarok looks waaay scarier and menacing in ps1 version. The new one looks like a disney villain
Both look like crackheads to me, that's scary enough.
I agree. The new version like zombies is more cartoonist.. Also maybe I like more the old deep purple lighting at the environment than the new green one.. It's always a very good looking game though..
He looked moist
@@luismachado1934 Well if your front door was a waterfall, you'd be moist too. Lol
The old Zarok looks like a Aids Zarok, the new is better deal with it
The original version looks way more creepy, the hardware limitations really give it a unique charm. And Sir Fortesque looks creepy as hell when he smiles on ps1! Gotta love MediEvil!
Its not creepy nor was it ever creepy
@@JunKurosu hey you. yeah you. shut up
Fuck off
@@JunKurosu how old are you
@@leskobrandon8454 29 played the game when i was 8
In the version of PS 1 i could pretty clearly feel the Tim Burton,s vibes .. i like it more
Anyone else think they made his bones too white like someone took a brush to clean them in the original they looked more dirty
Easily my biggest complaint.
The PS1 version looks a lot scarier and just grimy with a dark tone while the PS4 has more of a lighted up feel and is pretty cool. I like both of them.
On PSX Zarok is scary. On Ps4 he looks like Draq Queen xD"
in resurrection its a old woman of 70 years old
i thought it was a she....😁😁😁
The zombie at the end of the intro FMV was definitely more terrifying in the PS1 version. I remember getting freaked out by it I first fired the game up all those years ago
These new zombies have perfect white teeth and dont seem to project the dank rotting exhumed persona the original had. Even with the grainy resolution in the original, they come off as more anonymous and forboding
Same lol
Dude you where younger and got scared easily smh
@@thisiswhatgarbagelookslike3864 You might be right, but it doesnt really change the fact that I still prefer the spooky/low res vibe of the original over the cartoony energy of the remake.
I still did enjoy playing the remake and appreciate the amount of polish it had. Enough that I 100%-ed it
The new one looks too cartoonish while the Ps1 version had more of a dark vibe to him
I disagree... it only looked worse. I mean... it's objective on a technical stand point
@@emanuelefieni5761 The character design is better in the PS1 version.
@@emanuelefieni5761 I agree with you in some degree. The graphics are topnotched with vibrant colors while I dont think bright vibrant colors was the way to go with a grim game. More darker rainy colors wouldve suited it better to give us more of a nostalgic feel. The colors alone make it look like a Crash bandicoot or overlord type game.
@@Pyovali we can agree to disagree
@@KeN_The_SaMuRaii Emanuele Fieni works for Sony...
Original is the best it has a more darker and gritty look to it. The new one is oversaturated and way to bright.
it's because the new one has better graphics. I actually think they did a good job with the new one, compared to what the PSP version looked like. That version was utterly garbage.
The original is way better and darker . The new one feels like new crash a big baby game
@@toadbard well I don't now if you have eyes or not but the old one is darker , scarier and better , the new one is not good and crash the old one wasn't like the new one the new one is way more childish. The original were better because they had enough childish but the new one are way more childish and that what makes them suck
I prefer the new one, where I can actually see what's going on now. That stupid hidden staircase in the graveyard was so frustrating to find the first time as a kid...
@@toadbardyou have written a whole speech I am not gonna bather myself and read it but you clearly don't have good eyes and don't insult me next time because I didn't 😊🌷
This comparison is so great I was only a kid when I played this now I have kids the same age I was back then 😂
Same
Is it just me or does the lighting seem better in the ps1 version. Like more believable also quick edit I was referring the cinematics
Ps1 raytracing best
It's subjective. I personally like the color of the lighting in the original a bit more but it's impossible for anyone else to emulate what I like about it, much less explain WHY I like it.
You guys remember the corn maze level In the old version? Jesus christ, that was eerie
I had dreams about the levels in this game for years.
Well...I didn't played the ps1 version before but i'm sure i'm gonna enjoy the remake.
As a kid it was quite terrifying, especially the Sleeping Village.
Yeee specially if u run Just Little in corn field something bite? U and whole life was wasted.... My nightmare lvl from childhood.
And another one with big reptiles and spinning water on bootom. In this lvl u must destroy all water eyes if i good remember.
Even in this version, it's still scary and creepy to almost not wanna know what creatures are in the cornfield.
Old version it's better (for me) because I feel nostalgia and this very creepy and dark atmosphere.
He’s way scarier with the ps1 cgi
Who?
@@REDEEMERWOLF He's talking about Zarok
Yeah... bad in a scary way... this game was never scary to begin with smh
@@emanuelefieni5761 Ah. So you know the creators's original vision??
Why when I always think about something it's ALREADY BEEN SAID 😂😂😂
The 1998 Graphics were as advanced back then as the 2019 Graphics are today.
MediEvil was the game i was always afraid as a child. I used to have nightmare sometimes from it. The ps1 version looked definitely more scarier than ps 4 version. Gave me the creeps, especially the part where Zarok shouts " fire " it sounded so scary. To this day i still come back to watch the " intro " sometimes. Good times :D
2:26 I didn't know Shinnok from Mortal Kombat had a cameo.
Well he is taking souls.
lol! funny joke.😄
Lmaooo that's what I thought too
I was so terrified as a kid of the ps1 version… If i had played the ps4 Version back then it wouldn’t have had this mysterious and dark feeling… it looks way too cartoony and funny
It was the case because you were a child, this game always had a cartoony vibe but back in the days it was harder to set it apart from other games because of the technical limitations.
It looks pretty faithful to the original but maybe they should've hired bluepoint or invest more money because its not at the same level of Crash & Spyro remasters
It's just because you have a reference point, not because the remake is more kiddie.
So are we ready to cancel the remake already? Lol
@@am_infinite you mean the pre order? I dont pre order games but i think im going to pick it up anyways even tho im kind of disappointed
@@gus8426 Damn dude... Hard to please. This looks awesome and I'm happy it exists at all.
I love it. Crash, RE 2 and now Medievil - now i just wait for FF7 and maybe one day RE3 and im in heaven
Ooo Nemesis is gonna make Mr. X look like a puppy...STAAAARS
Want to give an update on this? Haha
Your wish is granted
My only gripe is that they took the nice lighting of creepy dark purple shading a somber orange colors from sun shining through areas....and replaced it with a greenish filter
This becomes especially clear at 1:25
Also, though I'm not a fan of the more cartoonish vibe, I do appreciate how they made him more lovable ❤
Like, sure. It's not as creepy as the original, but I love scene in the new one at 5:05
No lie, I never played medievil before but seeing the fmv rn I would have definitely been terrified as a kid
You must play it
Why even say no lie?
I dropped tears for medievil
Its like dark souls of the 90s
I was born in 2000 but played medievil and medievil2 since the age of 3 n 4
I have a feeling that people responsible for those PS1 remakes are way too afraid to make things unsettling. MediEvil would have been a largely forgettable game had it not been for its creepy gothic setting and the primitive PS1 technology only worked to reinforce that feeling. Nothing in MediEvil ever looked quite right: everything from tombstones, to buildings, to characters, exuded this aura of wrong, as if the world itself could swallow you whole if you weren't paying attention. When you cast so much spotlight on every single character in a scene, suddenly nothing is ambiguous or scary anymore.
The art director of this opening cinematic didn't do their homework on that overview shot of the city. Please take notice at the background in 2:12. The mountain range and the river you can see in the original MediEvil are landmarks visible in the world map, the level selection screen. In the Sleeping Village level you can even see the river yourself. I'm not sure why in the PS4 release this elaborate background was replaced by the silhouette of a forest.
With all that being said, it's great to see MediEvil come back to life and I sincerely hope the rest of the game is better than the intro. I think the PS4 Daniel looks spectacular, which is in part a testament to how great his original design is.
You said too much.
It's reaaaallyyy simple:
I see Medievil, i like.
It has some small issues, but after all, it's an great remake.
Period.
@@HowlingMad86 'You said too much'. Uh, no one has forced you to read any of this...
Captain Nocula, Bravest of my Captains, noblest of my Courtiers; Oh that we should meet at a time such as this
@@noxanneballadynasowacka6125
Well said. Mixed feelings for me as yes it is indeed great so see a comeback of a superb game but the overall 'cuter' cartoonish look does take a lot of atmosphere away from the original.
There are some things I like over the original though, the gargoyles for one, I like that they aren't merely dumb terminals in aesthetics but now can display emotions and feelings via facial expressions but not in a cartoonish way and still remain creepy.
It's a pity they didn't adopt this approach for the entire game!
Still, I'm very happy to see it get pushed back to the fore though 😊
Coudn't agree more
Too many people complaining about nothing, just be grateful that they remade it, the Ps1 version is still out there if you want to go play that. personally I think the updated version looks awesome. Super excited for it.
Same here man. Asshats love to make people feel bad because they like something they don't like. I love the original and I'm looking forward to playing this remake.
Is Zarok a drag queen?
Zarok was always a queen
in the PSP remake they mentions this
I honestly really like what they did with the gargoyles now, looks really nice
I’m pumped for this! Love how they tried to make it shot for shot of the old game like Spyro reignited
The graphics and character design on this game look beautiful, the sound and voice are great also.
Reading all of these negative comments on here... I guess I'll be the only one who will purchase this game and enjoy the nostalgia...
Not the only one
Just because I'm critical of the remake doesn't mean I'm not going to enjoy it. I'm critical of it specifically because I care about it.
Thanks for the likes. I think this game looks absolutley beautiful. And after watching all of the behind the scenes videos and the gameplay from the developers, I can see how they all really put thier heart into remaking this game for everybody that enjoyed it back in the day. 😊
This made me appreciate it even more:
czcams.com/video/9ymgYCVbJWg/video.html
I never played it, I'm thinking on buying it
As child I was very afraid of stained glass windows after playing this game
Old version is way freakier the new one makes him look like a joke but nice clean up anyway
I kinda prefer the older run animation. Still looks good though.
I'm really looking forward to the new music mixes.
The Original looks scary 😁
Look at the size of the village in ps1 compared to ps4. Ps1 looks bigger and when Zarok is casting the spell that moon is just amazing.
There just something about the character design, animation and cutscenes of the original PS1 version that makes it superior to the remake.
The only thing better in the remake are the designs of the talking gargoyle heads.
The problem with the remake's cutscenes is that they are made with the ingame engine, all the locations and characters should remain consistent. The original shot of the town presents us with crooked and warped streets and houses something that only works from that perspective you cannot translate that into a 3D and playable environment. As they used again the engine for every shot they are limited in the effects they can use, that's why that shot of the town from the cliff looks like a random WoW village rather than an eery secluded village. One more thing that this remake does wrong is abusing the engine particle effects, instead of a real sorcerer casting a spooky spell the big baddy resembles every spell caster from an MMO or MOBA using a spell that can be spammed all day long.
In addition to all the limits of using the ingame engine, I must say that the character and location design is plain bad, the source material is just awesome and they were making a remake, so there is no excuse to what they did. The main villain looks like a discount version of a Disney villain, they possessed villagers are not even.... and the worst offender is the hole in the wall, the original looks like a face which is neat, the remake one is just a plain hole boooring.
About the bit of gameplay shown, in the original all that you couldn't see was pitch black, making you feel uncomfortable and think of all the things that were waiting outside that black void, again in the remake they just throw that feeling out the window
Raizazel Well said. Thank you.
Totally agree
@@Raizazel To be honest both versions look like they are from Disney movie. Still a great game though!
The cinematics are better in the the original.
No they're not. Look at the information gargoyle, the expressions from that are so much better.
@@REDEEMERWOLF that's the only thing that the remake does better.
@@REDEEMERWOLF And the Gargoyle are not a cinematic, so...
Agree
@@REDEEMERWOLF YES THEY ARE .
wish they would somehow replicate the old cinematic's style, with weird stuttering and rendering that gave it a unintentionally creepier mood, instead of just making it "prettier". I think this game gains something with some "uglyness". But that's just a nitpick, other then that the remake is fantastic and the in-game stuff acutally looks darker, better colors and contrast compared to the more plain original.
It's called NOSTALGIA buddy, we miss the ''uglyness'', that's why...
To be fair, I agree that the stuttering made it look better. I liked that in the OG, whether it was intentional or not, Zarok had a proper limp going on to his right-hand side; something missing in the remake.
I agree, in the feel that castles with symmetrical stones are far less wretched than castles with convoluted stones. The cheerfulness is quite a contrast to the time in history when Tim Burton took centerstage with his interpretation of droll insusiance. This remake has an unrequited candor all its own as if it took the football and took off in the wrong direction. Youd think all new levels would have dusted this game off, instead this new dazzling CGI programmer made it into a Phantom Menace, we are going to need a sequel to validate a new hope for Sir Dan again
original cinematic are better. changing colours changes atmosphere I felt for
Reading all these comments... This is why we cant have nice things and this game looks FANTASTIC stop bitching so we can have pt 2 as well 😭😭😭
Jinzx you know what I’m saying?? I love MediEvil 2. I was hoping they’d do a collection like crash and Spyro 😞
This.
Yeah all those whinny idiots are annoying. I'm born in the 90 too and enjoyed the time. But remakes like these look good and we should be happy that games like this get a second chance. Alone that gamer nowadays can play these cool games.
What's wrong with people criticizing the looks?
That doesn't mean the same people won't play it. You don't have to blindly praise something just to show you like it.
It's brilliant, love it! The good old childhood. One of the best remakes I've ever seen. Lovely!
Scenes and character design is superior in old version.
The ps1 version look like more Dark and scare than the ps4 version.
The Ps1 fmv intro still looks better than the real time Ps4 one for me, better coloured and absurdly better specular mapped. Ps1 Zarok looked soulless as he was supposed to be. On Ps1 his face is correctly shaded in the penumbra and there are correct shadows on the book which instead look pretty much random on Ps4 where there's too much brightness with just a little candle lit in a cave lair underground built into a waterfall.
Even if mid '90s games fmv cinematics (in general) look kinda "clayish" (though I was really impressed by many of them, back in the day) for nowadays standards they sometime still work somehow better and paradoxically turn out to be more realistic and genuine...
I think some of the color pallete and graphical limitations of the original actually made it look better. Sure a lot of places were evenly lit, but certain set pieces and details used very deliberate lighting.
The remake is detailed but it's like....they made *everything* too detailed so the final image is not as easy to digest, visually...like the eye is drawn in too many directions at once.
The torch lighting in the original was stark and actually looked like torchlight against dark, and gave spaces/architecture more definition. More impact.
The remake graveyard just has this "purple" look and oversaturated draw distance, with distant details in like sprites or particles, clouds, etc way too textured
Like with some of the Spyro reignited lighting/skybox quirks, the developers lack an understanding that sometimes "Less is More"
And the intro cinematic...doesn't even compare, man.
It's ok to be nostalgic, I also prefer the original work because I grew up with them, but the idea behind remastering is to use the current technologies to produce a detailed and finished version of a given game. They also need to target a big audience and make big sell to pay the production cost and make a plus value.
Just like back in the days these were the best graphical game you could hope for.
The only that I hate on the remake is how zarok looks, looks almost like a clown while in the original looks like a demon; and the zombies are not as terrifying as the original. :/
He always looked like a clown.
I hate the walking the most.
JESUS. That first flash at 0:52 gave me a heart attack!
Haha it was kind of scary
I never got to the play the original, and personally I love the look of the new one. For those saying Zarok looked darker in the original, a lot of that just has to do with the ps1 could render lol.
No, it's to do with actual character design. Colour and lighting aside, in the original he had unnatural markings or wrinkles across his face, indicating great levels of deterioration, age or scarring. The facial 'horns' were also small and subtle, protruding directly out of his skin from his cheekbones, indicating an unintentional 'growth' of sorts, perhaps a magical backlash; whereas the remake has very intentional, pointy spikes with clear exit holes, quite like a typical cartoon villain. The eyes in the original were always wide open, with no eyebrows, making him appear emotionless and psychopathic. The latter has big, bushy brows and overtly expressive eye movements. Whether intentional or not, the original moved in a choppy way, with a clear limp, whereas the latter is very smooth and almost waves his hips. All of this distances the original from looking or behaving like a human; whereas the latter feels much more like they took Zarok's original design and attempt at integrating it with Jafar or something.
Can’t wait to play it again!!!! All time favorite game! I had so much fun playing it when I was younger brings back some good memories
Great video. Gave me goosebumps
Older Zarok looks scary af
Really good job.👏
i used to watch a older friend play this as a kid and it scared me so much... the ps1 graphics are terrifying
Still love this new version, especially after playing the demo but i got to say i really do miss the old school noises like when you open tutorial books or fill up your health vials :(
Couldn't agree more, love the remake so much. But I really missed the sounds of the zombies when you hit them with the sword haha
This looks absolutely amazing of the upcoming remake of midevil I cannot wait to play this bad boy for the first time
Very good work for one of the best video games ever !Glory tribute to Sir Daniel Fortesque!
Shit!! I remember playing the demo on ps1! Good times back then
Mr.Wayne jam pack 🔥🔥
Haven’t played em myself, but both look great in their own ways!
RIP Paul Darrow(Zarok voice actor)
Better graphics, but lost the soul, personality, atmosphere, charm, and character of everything
Exactly
Nah.
@lady bird yeah, I found that out when I watched the completionists review. That's pretty cool.
looks good. my only change would be to dim the lighting a bit , looks like a sylanders dlc level, and add a bit of a deep purple/blue mix to the environmental lighting
ingame looks fantastic though.
@@dirtpeanut1820 how much do you think this will be to buy in the US and the UK
He just looks like an old lady in the original XD
I think I will provide my own opinion. Never even hearing of this game until now.
The ps1 game was obviously limited by its tech. However it still holds up today. Giving us a dark atmosphere that I would love to play sometime. The Ps4 looks great with the new tech giving us better poly models, however everything has become so colorful. Kinda reminding me of the spyro remake while the ps1 reminds me of the old dark games of that time. Almost like if they made a nightmare before Christmas game. In fact it kinda reminds me of kh358 Halloween town to be more specific.
Wow! This sound brings back memories 🙂
Really great remaster of this loving it on ps4
Can’t wait to play this I’m probably going to get it for my B-day
i'm quite surprised at how good the cutscene videos were on the ps1...
looking forward to playing this again
Why have modern remakes always be so more colorful?
More like they dont know how to apply the atmosphere that the original could do. Which sucks
@@kejiri3593 Indeed.
I used to have the playstation CD-ROM demo of this game back in the days. These games were so fun and advanced I could play and complete the demo over and over without getting bored.
Nowadays it's all about the Coolidge effect, buying another game even though you didn't even finish the previous one.
I mean i just Buy the next game just to save me some time to buy it later (but i prefer waiting to see the people's opinion
Love the darkness to the og game I feel they have mad stuff look alot less creepy
I grew up playing this game... Wow... Time flies
I love this game!
I used to play this amazing game 23 years ago, when I was single. I play whit my sons by now.
The PSX Version is still my favorite, i bought both Medievil 1+2 original over ebay , and also have the ps4 version, because this remake is also awesome ! xD Don't get me wrong i LOVE to play the remake, but the nostalgic childish kick what i get from the original is unbelievable :D
sorry for bad english i hope you get what i want to say, iam from germany xD
There's some games that you can't remake the grittiness of the original, this is one of them.
Hello there
Ps4 version reminds me of courage the cowardly dog.
Those skulls on the walls sound EXACTLY like they did before! 😱
Think we'd be able to get the full game like this? Lmao I'm in love with the comparison and i want to see different areas and monsters
Well.. PS1 version will always stay close to my heart and I find it to be 10x more scary/spooky thanks to the old graphics..
Honestly... I think the PS1 CGI looks better in terms of how much is going on. The Remake cut Sir Daniel's demise sadly.
No, the fortesque dead is in the game.
En lo personal está mejor el de ps1
Los gráficos causan cierta horror, aunque el de PS4 está más rápido. Pero vamos para esa época ya estaba bastante bien.
4:01. 6:44
Ohh..that's what's off. Not that the remake looks bad,it doesn't,but the OG version has a blackness looming around at all times. It's why the game's atmosphere is literally dark at times. You're always pressing forward past the darkness,never sure what's coming up next. Now you can see quite far into the distance, the remake has an actual sky & illuminated atmosphere/background and it makes everything brighter. Originally that was probably done due to hardware limitations,but wish they tried to make it work. It really seems to have played on the games tone/feel. It's always why some levels actually scared me a little when I young.
Are anyone else a little put off with how the PS4 version seem to cut away from the flashback before the arrows were fired and hit Daniel?
The dead is in the game.
By cutting his death the context is lost and feels non sequitur, something essential to Sir Fortesque's character
This is only on the video, they show it on the game
I WATCHED MY BROTHER PLAY THIS SO MUCH AND I JUST FOUND IT AGAIN
It seems like they didn't fully learn the lesson from Resurrection. Well, they say third time's the charm. Maybe in another 20 years. 🤔
What lesdon?
Am I the only one who prefers PS1 version?
Did you forget tje GAMEPLAY??
@@DanielMartinezz6 gameplay is the same in te remake
yes you and the other hundred people who says the same.
@@Jisim33 i am just into old quality games idk why
The original was better. People who prefer the remake speak todays lingo, they couldnt be the bravest of my captains or noblest of my courtiers
Eu joguei e finalizei o MediEvil 2... ótimo jogo !
I played original one. Loved it. Gonna get the remake for sure
Guess I'm the only one that thinks the original always looked just as goofy and cartoonish as the remake. I think they both look great.
The first one always scared the shit outta me
I love both I will forever love this game so much fun to play
Love both. Just placed a bid on ps1 version
so from what im seeing, the remake looks WAY too colorful and not dark enough and kiddish while the original had the scary vibe with better cinematics wtf?
The original was scary???? Better cinematics????? No, this is not what I'm seeing
dont see better cinematics, although we're talking about a comparison of an CGI Render sequence with a sequence in ingame-engine. but its surely too colorfull, which is a "new-age" sickness you can see in almost every second game or so. The topic with the same debate started with diablo 3 if not even sooner. models and design is a question of taste, i kinda like it but i didnt play the original, only the ps1-demo. but yeah, the original had this "ghost n gouls"-vibe with darkened backgrounds, which was likely more a hardware-restriction then a decision of design. as a developer you need some guts and talent to create a dark world like bloodborne or diablo 1 for example.
I'm actually liking this game knowing that you actually have to find all the lost souls in the game and you get access to the original game that makes me want to get the platinum trophy
Seems like they were trying to make it look more like the concept art, I can roll with this. The demo was pretty fun.
I got the platinum so CZcams recommended this video thanks.
I love this game! Awesome!
From haunted house to disco
The original is way better, i can't believe this remake. .
I skipped school to master this game, so glad they remastered it. Now ill be able to remind my dad of how much i wasn't dedicated to education but didnt turn out to bad despite the fact
