The Return to Arkham remaster came out in 2016, before ray tracing on console was a possibility, but yeah if they wanted to bring those games to current gen they’d have to do another pass or two on all the assets/engine stuff.

i didn’t know Rani but i got to talk to her a couple times at a festival where she was showing her game Death Sword and i was blown away by how cool, funny, and smart she was and how warm and open she was with some rando trans girl who had a bunch of questions about NES hacking and noise music. rest in power Rani

rani and i weren’t super close, but the few times we talked, i always thought she was super cool. i will always find it funny that the reason she followed me on twitter was specifically because i was talking about the telenet exile series, and she was happy to find at least one other person who knew about it.

Starting from the principle that it was too hard to animate women, as we all know. So the more like a woman (who as we all know, are skinny but have huge tits) the more trouble the engine has so to save dev time and resources they had to make the most masculine men imaginable.
