On the other hand, Ubisoft title series, where people just don't bother with the next title anymore.
What are you playing this weekend/these days?

Could have been better in many ways even with its actual engine, most of the issues there were in level design and choices they made to "change" the previous game.

Nearly 20 year old video game system, and you're likely upscaling a 720p game so of course it would look horrible on a modern display.. I have mine hitched to an older DLP projector that scales well with lower resolution systems.
I don't think it's the fact that it's upscaled but the nature of the upscaling. To me PS3 upscaling smooths unaesthetically and my TV's 720p is fake and mushy. Because most people are pixel averse these days, is my theory.
And I just learned how to deactivate deflicker filter on my Wii and now certain games, namely Twilight Princess, look sharper. Lovely big, sharp pixels via OSSC. With a pinch of scan-line emulation. Yum.
Btw I ordered a component cable for my PS3 so I can use OSSC to upscale (line-double). I'll tell you how it goes.

Emulation on the Xbox SeriesS/X should work nicely to I was told. But it's obviously non-native gameplay in that case.

Recently won a game of Midwinter (with bombers and mortars disabled) and I confirm my appreciation. It's really well designed. For example I've realised that the "ice-age" world isn't just a pretext to have untextured white floor everywhere and a more oppressive atmosphere. It makes travelling more interesting: base movement is skiing rather than walking so you have to be careful of not exhausting yourself climbing uphill or going too fast downhill and you regularly have to turn left or right to optimise your path, same when driving a vehicle. The food/sleep mechanisms lead to decisions between trying to go further or playing it safe, etc. Even the combat that I initially found difficult and unrewarding is actually fine once you get used to it (at least in a vehicle, sniping might be a good option from high ground or when facing supply vehicles, or maybe for the bombers and spotter planes but most of my attempts to use it were failures) and routing enemy units with a single character (especially the 11 years old girl) feels epic.
In the end I had a character glide all the way to the enemy HQ and blow it up (with a few hours detour to gather some dynamites from a shop because I forgot to ensure he had some). On the one hand it feels like it could be possible to do this from the start and 'speedrun' the game but on the other hand it might not be that easy (I've tried it with three different good gliders and was only able to do it properly (with a perfect landing right inside the settlement) with one of them) and it's possible that the other characters who sabotaged buildings and held-off enemy units slowed down the enemy advance enough to give time to the character who destroyed the HQ.
I've also recently finished Rise of the Golden Idol, it's more of The Case of the Golden Idol with some small changes/improvements and it's still good.
