Epic Mickey Rebrushed Is Proof That Remakes Matter

[@RETRObutionofficial]

*UPDATE* I managed to get around the game breaking bug If you're having the same issue as me then reply here and I'll let you know what I did to fix it. I believe I got the good ending and I loved how wholesome it was, I'm definitely picking up Epic Mickey 2 for PS3 very soon

[@cesarvictoriano8072]

I came across that bug. What’s the fix?

[@RETRObutionofficial]

@@cesarvictoriano8072 so when you spawn at the checkpoint in front of the tentacle. Turn around and go all the way back to the furthest point you can go back. Then turn around and continue the level like normal. I think the problem was that there's a section with 4 chandeliers side by side and 2 enemies didn't spawn. But now if you go back there should be 2 broom enemies on the chandelier, kill them and then that should spawn the room. Let me know if it helped!

[@cesarvictoriano8072]

It did! Thank you.

[@Cozmic001]

just something really quickly about epic mickey 2, its easier to see, the camera still isnt really very good, and the story isnt as good and the game is shorter, but its still a good game in my opinion (though a lot of fans really dont like the second game)

[@SketchSpooks]

Shout-out to Purple Lamp for proving themselves to be an incredibly competent studio. Their work on the SpongeBob BFBB remake was a love letter, their original title, SpongeBob The Cosmic Shake, is not only a good licensed game but also a GOOD and charming 3D platformer too! Having them be at the helm for Epic Mickey only made sense IMO

[@RETRObutionofficial]

Definitely, they've been one of my favourite devs of the last 4/5 years now. I like that Cosmic Shake proved that they're a great development team and not just a porting team

[@Bluepossible]

So you are telling me that i played through the remake TWICE to get everything and just NOW i realize, that i could`ve skipped the 2D Sections?!?

[@lilbillix]

I just finished my first play through of this game and I think the game is amazing and now someone made a list of canon events for the 1st game and I can’t wait to play the game again the canon path I hope they remaster the 2nd game and who knows where it can go from there I hope it only goes up from here

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I would love to see a remake of the 2nd game, fingers crossed Rebrushed sells well enough for them to do it. Either way I'm going to pick up the sequel for PS3 so I can make a video on it

[@nekogamer2508]

Imagine the remake of the 2nd game is different to account for your choices

[@RETRObutionofficial]

That would be amazing lol but that is so complicated to pull off. Bioware are really the only ones to ever do it succesfully

​@@RETRObutionofficial the second game is a bit shit but if you want more epic mickey it's not that bad.

[@Bryan-fy5wt]

This is a Definitively Perfect Remake, I give it a solid 9/10, but with a few bug fixes and adding back the Bog Easy theme & the Oswald theme at Oswald's sanctuary, then I would give this a defining 10/10.

[@juandiegocalderonwurth8379]

Do you think that the developers even know they missed this things?

Once the bugs are fixed I would agree that it's a great remake

[@BKLYN48]

Epic Mickey was my favourite game as a kid and I spent so many years hoping for either a remake or the final game in the trilogy. We live in a society where I can finally be happy again, amazing video!

I was like that when BFBB Rehydrated was announced and the Spyro Reignited trilogy. Thanks for watching :)

[@365ral]

I hope they fix the music selection in a future patch. The paint and thinner themes got all mixed up, and some tracks were omitted completely, including Oswald's theme! Beyond that, though, yes, it is a very worthy remake of the OG EM! ^^

[@RETRObutionofficial]

Strange for them to leave music out, I wonder if there were rights issues with the music

[@365ral]

@@RETRObutionofficial I don't see how. They were mostly shorter themes, like stingers, and Oswald's theme was played in the credits. IDK why it wouldn't play in the throne room.

@@RETRObutionofficial all the music is done by the same guy, the lack of some segments is currently being theorized to be because those specific files had weird file naming. hoping these will be patched in along with all the bug fixes

[@KennySpace]

The remake is so awesome im literally so happy about it, just wished it would have added at least the possibility to turn on voice acting the text sometimes is very fast to read in the videos😂

[@RETRObutionofficial]

Yep the text moves so fast, voice acting would've made it so much better. I guess it would've taken up too much budget

[@TacBans]

One thing I will say, is that NPCs actually did have some sort of indication of a quest in the original, they'd have little dots near the A button above them. It still means you kind of have to walk near everyone until you see it pop up, but it was there, so you didn't have to exhaust random dialogue. But yeah, beyond some bugs or minor issues (bog easy and Oswald's throne not having the correct music, (bog easy reuses lonesome manor, and oswald's throne just uses the generic ambience, but it does appear in the credits for some reason????) some NPCs changed races, some quests or items have different expiration than in the original, etc.) it's honestly a step up from the original, even though I do have nostalgia goggles on.

[@mangoeswithfudge5012]

I did the same thing with the gremlin ride 😭😭 i felt so bad and seeing the “quest failed” rubbed it in

[@Jynxxx5]

THIS GAME WAS MY CHILDHOOD! I was NOT expecting it to come back! It’s so much better than I remembered! It does lag in some parts, but what do you expect from the switch. I would honestly not be mad if they decide to remake the second game, music and all.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

Yep I'm hoping they remake the second game

[@starrywisp]

I tried playing epic Mickey on the Wii and didn’t even get to the first boss (I stopped inside the boat ride) because I could not get the controls to work, I just kept falling off the platforms and the Wii remote/nunchuk controls would not work for me. Granted, I never played platformers on the Wii as a kid so I never got used to the controls for that, so I’m just naturally better at it on the Switch, but it stands to say the controls didn’t work well. The remake completely fixed this, I could actually enjoy the game and I’m so glad I did.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I was in the same boat, glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@FamilyZack]

I personally loved playing through and even pre-ordered for nostalgia's sake and because of my love for the franchise. I ended up beating the game on Sept. 29th. I didn't end up seeing the bug you motioned at the end of the game but I did have one specific problem with the tiki sam mask quest that was from Horace for detective III in ventureland. When I painted in the footsteps the NPC that was supposed to be there did not spawn in, leaving me unable to complete the quest in my first and only playthrough so far. Loved the video. Really expressed my feelings toward the game and original

[@RETRObutionofficial]

Thanks so much for watching :)

[@LinkIncGames]

my brothers childhood game is epic mickey and after playing the remaster myself i LOVE epic mickey and i understand why he loves it so much

[@reference2407]

Beyond ashamed to admit that I banged this game out a mere hour after it came out, and didn’t once realise I could skip those stupid projectors 😭

[@RETRObutionofficial]

It's fairly easy to miss, if you don't walk to the projector screen at a certain angle the Gremlin won't spawn until it's to olate lol

[@juandiegocalderonwurth8379]

I missed some things, the lack of emotions of gremlins, lack of certain music in certain parts really put me off. And i just felt that they could've added more things, or more matter to the things that are going on. There are some changes, but they are so small that for somebody that hasnt played the original in a long time would not notice. But im my case i did, and i dont know why the developers would change or not notice details like that. When you get to the top mickey junk mountain, you could listen to oswalds theme in his refugee, but now is just the same music of the mountain. Why?!?!?!?! Why?!?!?!?!?

[@juandiegocalderonwurth8379]

Those little details, is what makes a game like this special, not the level design, gameplay etc

[@Bryan-fy5wt]

And it's not just that! When you first enter Bog Easy, instead of the theme you hear normally like in the original, it's been swapped out for the Lonesome Manor theme, I don't if the developers forgot to add it or they didn't have enough time before release?

[@juandiegocalderonwurth8379]

@@Bryan-fy5wt yeah man i dont get it, if you are going to make a remaster or remake of a classic game, why would you avoid details like that? They are supposed to know more about the game than us!!

[@the1doctorwhat]

Loved this game. Really liked how often if gives you new levels to explore

[@TheAliceMargatroid]

I loved this Remake, it really brought back many fond memories getting the OG game on Christmas day. Some bugs need to be worked on but it's definitely a worthy remake. My only complaints is some of the visuals, more directly at Thinner/Bad Mickey. Thinner guardians were more disgusting and disturbing looking, leaving smoke trails, I don't like how they just pallete swapped the paint guardian to a green one. Also Mickey dosent look as disturbing with thinner guardians. He drips out more of the liquid you see in the game, making him visually look more like a Blot enemy. Other than that this is a perfect remake.

[@Hamtaijin-ud2li]

Agreed! I got the original when it came out and could never get through it despite trying to push myself to get it done becuase it just felt like a chore. Now I’m playing rebrushed and can’t put it down! Almost beat it and will def be replaying!

[@disneybarbiegirl615]

I finished it, although there were some bugs and lags along the way, but with the addition on new sections, and new collectibles to collect, I’d say this is a great improvement! Epic Mickey was my favorite game ever, and I’m a huge Mario nerd, and I’m not sure why epic Mickey stuck to me so much. But I have played it more than any game I’ve ever had. I was only disappointed by some of the side characters, as they aren’t as well done as Mickey himself. And don’t look as clear as Mickey which makes them stand out. Venturland was my favorite section as a kid, specifically skull island. It had beautiful colors on the wii. Which made it stand out compared to the rest of the dull and drab scenery you saw up until that point. Unfortunately with the remaster it’s not as vibrant and matches the rest of the scenery. Which could’ve been the original goal, and they couldn’t do it due to technology back then, but it was a section I loved and would’ve liked to see still with vibrant greens and blues. I also think the blot could’ve been more detailed, as he didn’t seem, just as the other side characters, to be as flushed out as Mickey and Oswald and Gus. All in all, it was a better camera, better graphics, better lighting, better play features, and I didn’t mind the lack of Wii remote controls. Which I thought I would miss, but I don’t really. I would rank it a 8/10, which is more than I would give the original, although, I have nostalgia for it. I would be interested to see what they do for this franchise, and I hope they continue it!

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I think Epic Mickey sticks so much because of the tone, there are very few kiddy 3D platformers that have a dark tone like it. All I can think of is MediEvil (which isn't exaclty a platformer) and Psychonauts

[@JSwag_Reviews]

It was really great, my only gripe was I felt the projector levels aren’t as fun as they used to be and weren’t as mind blowing. I remember playing the sleeping beauty one for the first time and being like this game is a 10 even with its problems on the Wii lol. Still an amazing update!

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I think the 2D sections feel the same so it could be the ol rose tinted glasses

I’m about half way through my first play through of this remake and the only bugs I have come across is that a couple of the cutscenes don’t show as discovered in the menu and the first version of the bunny children mean street quest seems to be skipped as it gave me the second quest onward with no way to access the first one. Otherwise it’s been a blast and really feels like what I remember the original being like all those years ago when I was a kid.

[@kaltv6486]

I have the remake on the switch. Well, it doesn’t really work as well. But I think it updated so it’s less of a problem anymore. The loading screens take forever because of course it’s on switch lol. I don’t wanna sound ungrateful, but I’m thinking about talking to see if I can get it on Xbox instead if I return the game, I’m still thinking about it but the game is actually pretty good. It’s just sometimes a lag here and there. This is basically my first time actually playing this game, I first seen this game at Best Buy a long time ago when I was a kid, I think that was the time where the Nintendo Wii was popular at the time and I think it was one of the exclusive games. When I the cover art, it was the first time I actually seen a version of Mickey Mouse that was actually bad ass from my own opinion, of course xD

I finished the game a few days ago, great game, and now after playing it i gotta say, i think its a mix of the two, i think its 50% remaster and 50% remake, since this one has new areas and there are more collectables. And even the 2D levels have new hidden areas.

A remaster is a cosmetic makeover while a remake rebuilds the game or at least aspects of it The new mobility, fast travel, and specifically the camera system make it a remake If you look at Mass Effect Legendary Edition, which is a "remaster" for all 3 games in that trilogy, only 2 and 3 are remasters, the first one falls much closer to a remake

Remakes often than not harm the legacy of a game and even go so far as to add cancerous modern features into them along with castrating the unique look and feel of the games.

Don't you mean his friend Goopy (my joke, not anyone else's)

[@nifftbatuff676]

I prefer demakes.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I guess the 3DS game is kind of a demake

[@philbln]

I played about 3 hours of the PS5 version and felt totally disappointed. I think this game sucks and isn't worth the praise it got on Wii.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

What didn't you like about it?

[@philbln]

@@RETRObutionofficial The start was OK, even if that battle against that big machine felt like a weird start. Than I started collecting those tickets everywhere, where I never understood, why I should collect them. I hate games like that. Than the combat felt absolutely dumb, this stupid circle attack, which was useless against enemies. You're getting this paintbrush, with which you can fill and erase some objects and defeat enemies. I heard that this was thought to deliver creative gameplay. To me, it felt boring and unsatisfying. The platforming was never anything special. The level design wasn't exciting, there were side missions I couldn't do and I didn't know, will I get back to that place later or do I miss it, when I go on. I even found the level design a bit depressing from the themes. After around 3 hours, where nothing got any better in this game, I decided to sell it and never again care about it. The worst and disappointing game I played this year.

Nice video

Thanks for watching :)

Isn’t this game a remaster not a remake?

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I think it's in that weird middle ground of Remake and Remaster. Yes it's the same game, but it feels more like Crash N Sane Trilogy or Spyro Reignited, and I'd consider them remakes than just remasters

[@maxisenberg9093]

Remaster. Not remake

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I think this is a remake

[@LegionOfWorldWarriors]

"Epic Mickey Rebrushed Is Proof That Remakes Matter" I disagree with that statement. Too many remakes changed their respective games too much and are not faithful by turning them into generic games. Seeing the old graphics and playing with the old mechanics made them fun and unique. If I want to play a game with shiny graphics and modern mechanics then I could've played a series' latest release instead. Only remakes I could think of that preserve the originals uniqueness are the Crash and Spyro trilogies and Battle for Bikini Bottom Rehydrated. To put it simply I think remakes are overrated.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I think everything they added to the game was a much needed improvement. Preserve the base game by buying the Wii version, then use the remake as way to fix issues and make it more accessible to a wider audience while also keeping the original vision in tact - which I think they did, just like BFBB Rehydrated

[@9-VoltGaming]

Epic Mickey is not a collectathon lmao Not every 3D Platformer is a collectathon, and a game having something to collect also doesn't make it a collectathon

[@BluminousLight]

I highly disagree. There is quite literally nothing to do in this game aside from the main story than collecting. It is literally the reward for nearly every single main/side quest.

[@RETRObutionofficial]

I disagree, you collect quest items, sparks, and tickets

[@spacejesus6581]

Everything you do gives you a collectible pin, that's the goal of multiple playthroughs, collecting them all

[@PaulybiGGballZ0820]

Such a great, dark moody game, but I hate wii controls so bad, glad they did this ,hope ps5 has gyroscope for aiming the brush

[@RETRObutionofficial]

It does!
