Producer talks about the philosophy behind what to keep and what to update in new developer diary.

Despite some signs of its age, Resident Evil is still as scary as ever with the remake's recent release on Nintendo Switch.
DSOGaming writes: "These past few weeks have been really interesting as we've seen some truly amazing AI-enhanced texture packs for older games. Final Fantasy 7, Final Fantasy 8, Final Fantasy 9, Half-Life, Max Payne, Morrowind and Doom are just a few of the games that got new high-quality textures that were produced via AI Neural Networks and today, modder ‘Shiryu’ released a new AI-enhanced Texture Pack for Resident Evil HD Remaster."
I'm not really convinced by this AI Neural Networks thing using this as an example. I know you can't ask for much when it comes to pre-rendered stuff, but you can barely see a difference with most of these. At its worst, there's an imperceptible difference. At its best, you can see it cleared up some jaggies and looks a liiiittle less blurry.
I will download it of course, but based on the screenshots, this doesn't improve things a whole lot.
It does make a difference. Mods in general are just awesome. They've helped make so many of my games look better. The HD reworked texture mods and other mods for The Witcher 3, for example, made it look way better.
This may be small improvements now but it could be huge for gaming's future. AI with a ryzen based chip programmed to use the neural network to determine to the metal coding might allow programmers to focus on high level coding. That means games get done really fast and the budget goes into things like story and production. Once you have an ai that understands its given hardware it can decide how to run the code to maximize frames and resolution. AI will revolutionize gaming.
Looking forward to this!
Man, this will seal the deal and finally cast away my good ol' Gamecube.
Platinum trophy for this, I must.
Please take notes development team so you can apply the same art direction and pacing to the upcoming installment in teh Resident Evil series. Also I hope that Capcom can do the same for Resident Evil Zero except giving your partner smart A.I (similar to Resident Evil Outbreak) or may............just maybe online co-op except voice chat will be based on proximity and creative methods such as walkie talkies with limited battery use, P.A systems and the like.
Release date please!! 😭
