I want to remake a game like Ultima 4, Might and Magic 1 or possibly Pool of Radiance for a couple reasons:
1. None of my ideas are good enough to stand on their own
2. These games all have things that annoy me that I want to "fix"
If I were to remake U4, I probably wouldn't call it "U4 HD" because I wouldn't want to be forced to stay faithful to every little thing that would piss off the megafans if I changed it, so I'd probably call it "Something Something: A U4 Spiritual Successor" instead. But I have a feeling even that may get the legal axe from EA. The MM franchise is still relevant with the newest title. I'm not sure if anyone cares about PoR anymore except for that rumor about an SSI reincarnation in the works.
If I were to remake one of these games, which one would you like to see the most? And which one am I least likely to get sued or a cease-and-desist over?
