It definitely is more of a story than anything else. The entire game parts are like the siding on a house, they could be damn near removed and the rest of the house would still be livable. I really wish someone would remaster the game, since BL2 probably will never come out.

Since the dream of a true sequel is dead, getting Mitsoda et al involved in a proper remake would be the next dream. Imagine the setting and locations with modern ray traced lighting and having Mitsoda rewrite the weak second half of the game into something better?

Is this something we're the remaster tools of Nvidia could come in handy?

Not really for what I was envisioning I think: I want an actual remake where the second half of the game would be rewritten, along with new scripting and voice acting and cutscenes etc etc.

For stuff like upgrading assets and adding ray traced lighting etc the Nvidia RTX Remix stuff is great, though. So you could use it for more of a remaster, like they are doing with Half-Life 2.

At least that's how I understand it.
