I never noticed that comment before. Part of me thinks we could have added it for him if we’d seen that little regret at the start of the project. But, then again, it’s very hard to do the ‘right’ thing when remastering someone else’s work. Someone is always going to think we aren’t being true to the original no matter what we do. I can’t imagine the arguments there would have been to have edited a whole dialogue like that.
Batman v. Superman Wasn't All Bad
It's not a good movie, but it was made with good intentions and if you look closely you can find a few interesting ideas.
Trekrospective
A look back at Star Trek, from the Original Series to the Abrams Reboot.
Revisiting a Dead Engine
I wanted to take the file format of a late 90s shooter and read it in modern-day Unity. This is the result.
Overthinking Zombies
Let's ruin everyone's fun by listing all the ways in which zombies can't work, couldn't happen, and don't make sense.
The Strange Evolution of OpenGL
Sometimes software is engineered. Sometimes it grows organically. And sometimes it's thrown together seemingly at random over two decades.

Typo watch: the entire comic is missing.
Posting with the flu will have no negative repercussions! – Myself, two days ago.
Should be all fixed now!

Best not to change it. But you could probably throw another one together that’s obviously separate from the main block. Like that other comment he made about Photoshopping Gandalf onto the Wishdragon, or whatever it was.
This just makes me think that this is a bit dated, as there aren’t nearly as many “Couch Co-Op” games now as there were back in the days of the strip?
Minecraft is still going strong. But otherwise, you’re right. It’s a shame.
The original comic predates Minecraft by a few years!
Maybe they’re playing It Takes Two?
You could always do things like that as an alternate bonus strip if you wanted to. Then you have both the original, and the ‘reimagined’ new one as a fun little extra. Darths & Droids has very occasionally had little bonus extras like that, like a stitched-together panorama that’s obscured by text bubbles in the strip proper, or a comically over-long version of a fight sequence reimagined as involving the grappling rules.
“Oh wait, shit, I’m reading the grappling rules for the wrong edition!”
