wow this is amazing! Regardless if it's a reboot or not it should be the start of more and more good things to come!

Might be better for the new dev team to work on a LBA 1 remake type of thing to begin with anyway, to help them get a feel for what LBA is about. Then they can go on with that experience and knowledge to create an even better game. Especially once they hear what they could do better an so on.

I totally agree! I'm even wondering what the threshold is at how much investment of time and money making a completely reimagined remake (like the Final Fantasy VII remake which cost hundreds of millions of dollars) is better than improving the original code (by for example making the fights in LBA1 better and supporting higher resolutions).

Will they actually replace the GoG versions without being able to switch back to the "original" ones? I mean I'm looking forward to the new update, but I don't want the original one to disappear from my collection . They already pushed the rename (TLBAC) on top of the games we already bought , I wouldn't want to see this next update being pushed irreversibly

Since they removed the soundtracks from the GoG version, I can safely say :
Download and store locally everything, no exception. Everything.

You can extract them from the game files, or you can buy them on iTunes, where they'll cost you more than the games
Alternatively, they are included in the recent re-orchestration album.

Oh, that I know, I was just asking for *the* ones from GoG, their actual .zip soundtrack collection, just as a "collector's item", as it bugs me I did not save them before they were taken out (somehow I thought they'd stay in my account for as long as the GoG platform will be alive... I was wrong )... and yes, I do have OCD with these things...

Yes, unfortunately nothing stored on the internet is safe :/ 1 or 2 bad experiences like this really teach you to backup every-thing.
Even hard drives are not safe, so I'm considering actually printing my old pictures now

Hi there, I still have them - as I back up all my GOG games. I'll be happy to provide them to you, if allowed some way? My user name on GOG is also Wouterhil.

edit: fixed typos.

Eh! But why would you bother with that? It's exactly the very same thing as the ones you already have (for sure you had those already). Nothing 'collector' about it at all...



On the other hand, not everybody has, for example, all of the songs sung in game (Ferryman's song and Sendell's song) by all species and in all languages, together with their lyrics, which I have.



Now, that's a rarity.

I could upload that if that is legal, and ok for everyone?? lemme know.

You know you're on the MBN when 30+ year old adults spend months discussing "spicy" game art rated suitable for teens
But seriously, you should write a book about all the trivia you found out about the games. I'd totally buy it!

So, LBA 1 & 2 will be getting a real official remaster, while we're waiting for the publishers to approve the reboot:

What's your take on this? Especially from the images they've shown and the info written in the article?
