I know that remakes and remasters are contentious, but let’s pretend whatever game in question you’re thinking of is handled with the utmost care by your favourite devs and they absolutely nail it.
Mine would be Shadow of Memories (called Shadow of Destiny in North America). It’s legitimately one of my favourite games of all time but it kinda flew under the radar and I haven’t met many people who know of it let alone played it. Seeing it get modern graphics, maybe some expanded mechanics, would be soooo cool.
Dark Cloud 2 (Dark Chronical in Europe) I have never ran into a game that has hooked me like Dark Cloud 2 did. Loved how you upgraded the weapon not the character. Wouldn’t even need a remake just a Dark Cloud 3 as it like Final Fantasy each game had similar mechanics but a new story with new characters with some returning in different roles.
Playing through Dark Cloud 2 right now! Looooved them as a kid, would also love a remake. 2 expanded on 1 in so many great ways but I think a modern take on it with some QoL stuff would be amazing.
I came here to say Dark Cloud <3
