[@urthofthenewsun8465]

This game felt so apocalyptic. Nearly everything you encounter is undead or possessed, the Sleeping Village really drives that home when even children attack you.

[@BJ-zd2or]

Everything Dan encounters is hopeless and cursed.... but overall he strives on the will. Poor Dan....

[@SonnyBurgess-qn9bg]

Thats Sir Dan

[@SonnyBurgess-qn9bg]

I loved this game top 3 favorite of all time. Reminds me of childhood Christmas with my brother

[@jimjamsim]

I was quite possibly the dumbest kid ever. I used to think Zarok was a woman and I used to confuse him with Maleficent...

[@oddmundeide]

+Jimjamsim I thought it was a woman too

[@NULL-ug7ve]

I did too.... Lol

[@fallenknighttyler8695]

Me too!

[@fernandoarias1952]

Man, me and all my brothers thought Zarok was a woman.

[@gekoncze94]

same

[@IceCold11235]

The game is fairly light harted but this intro is scary as hell. I mean, a bony dude electrocutes a family of people, as they sleep, with some green lightning and turns them into mindless killers.

[@inquisition3173]

Just the creepy noises they would make and something would constantly be lurking around every corner. The great glass demon scared the crap outta me

[@suddnstar]

Only if I can be a kid in the 90's again.

I feelt that bro

[@inquisition3173]

I remember when i first started playing it when I was 7, i was so freaking entranced by it.

[@VaqueroCoyote]

To be fair alot of officers tend to be killed near the beginning of the battle...No shame Sir Daniel.

[@brandontadday6288]

Instant blast to the past. Takes me back to those simple days of visiting my dad and playing all of his PS1 games back in the early 2000's.

[@lukaskubinec9608]

It reminds me of playing this with buddies and girl who later became my GF - Gonna try get all of us together to play the remaster again (if even for a short time).

[@joeydrew3329]

Sadly I didn’t get the same joy of playing this in the nineties when it first came out, but my father played it a LOT when I was a little kid. I watched him play it and the freaking kid with the glowing eyes scared the SHIT out of me, but I was always so happy when Daniel appeared on screen. He was my first ever hero! I’m happy that now I get to play it on the PS4. This game gives me so much nostalgia!

[@suddnstar]

This game freaked me out as a kid as well, nowadays not so much

[@raychrash5139]

for me it was the menu screen with the skeleton, scared the shit out of me

Thousand times better than the remake intro

[@suddnstar]

I saw that intro and it was not creepy like this one.

[@RuizDream]

sir daniel fortesque

[@cosmicoandromeda7195]

in spanish some characters say "Fortesque" and others "Forteskiú" just as you can read it, (forteske or forteskiu) pretty weird, and in the hero gallery the axe man or axe stone man (xD) says "My axe like to laughter just like me!" and the original one was "my axe like to slaughter just like me!" but someone eat the S and they though that the axe liked to laugh, even in the subtitles it says "Slaughter"

[@Nibelheim_]

Wow... A load of memories just hit me these were the days ✊👍

[@claytoncroft6445]

There will never be a remaster with a better soundtrack than the 98 version of the game.

[@ShinGoji1987Official]

I remember when I was 12 years old only having the demo of the game and playing it over and over lol Then finally renting it from Blockbuster video, unfortunately getting stuck and not able to beat it in the 5 days of renting it. xD

[@lilchadaldrich]

Same! I would beat the demo over and over again. I finally bought the game, but I got stuck in the corn fields. I think you needed to find a tool for a tractor or something... I took the game over to my cousins and we finally figured out how to get past that part. We stayed up late every night playing it, taking turns until we finally beat it a few days later. Good times. I cant wait to play the remastered PS4 version coming out next year!

[@WickedHelku]

Ahhh the old days.

[@abandoned_soul]

For the first time I knew that fat warriors are in the stage "pools of ancient dead" are previously Dan's army 😭😭

[@Jay-uo5of]

02 kid here, grew up watching my Gen-Xer dad play this and the second game. Holds such a special place in my heart, I got to play a bit of this version and just bout finished the remaster entirely off memory from watching him growing up. I hope they remake the second one someday.

[@HydroHour]

Hahaha that smile at the end because he knows he’s been given a second chance. Such a great childhood game.

[@preppertrucker5736]

Bought this game when it was first released… Epic 👍

[@eljugadorloco]

This is much much better than the PS4 remake

[@lukaskubinec9608]

Well, it is. The darkness and creepiness is simply somehow not present in remake. Gonna buy PS1 cuz this game.

[@suddnstar]

You can never outdue the original. In this case the original has been out for 21 years. So many people have very fond memories of this game, no matter how good a remaster is it will never hold the same value in ones mind as the original.

[@sergiogonzales330]

@@suddnstar It's not about memories and nostalgia. The remake doesn't have the same terror factor like this one. For example, the remake's zombie jump scare is not as traumatizing as the one at 3:57. Heck is not even creepy at all. Another memorable scary thing removed was the build up of the first boss. The screen doesn't go black and you can no longer hear heartbeats.

[@williamr1088]

I wish they could have gotten this voice actor for the narration but still the remaster is fun.

[@linkieloos]

4:28 Command And Conquer scream ftw! What I loved the most about this game was the atmosphere. It had that Danny Elfman-esque soundtrack combined with a gothic art style, plus not overdoing it with both humorous and darker moments.

[@inquisition3173]

It was intriguing, but it never got rediculous or soul crushingly sad. Sir Daniel Fortesque is just one of the greatest characters I've ever played q.q

[@matthewbibby8921]

*cough* arrow

[@followingtheroe1952]

I don't think its ever explained why Fortesque was never enthralled by Zarok, and now that I think about it: the consequence of his death means he had an unsettled score with him LOL so he cheated the system in a weird and kind of honourable way.

[@jordanlit137]

MediEvil Resurrection is all censored and kid friendly. There's also a unneeded bug companion living in Sir Dan's head.
