“I’m skeptical about 20 year old remasters,” he said in a tweet.

“What was once fantastic, now remastered, will never hold up against modern masterpieces like Elden Ring.

The bar has simply moved from safe open world RPGs to what Elden Ring brought us all.

“I would love to be proven wrong.

But I’m not,” he added.
