House Flipper Remastered Collection

Better off just getting the original. The Remastered has more bugs and glitches. Plays terrible. Not worth it at all.

Prefacing this with the fact that I've played House Flipper and all of its DLC to the point I've obtained the Perfectionist achievement. It's a game I genuinely enjoy that allows me to do things I cannot economically nor physically do in real life (maybe someday, am I right, fellow American 20-somethings?). I'm currently finished with the base-game missions & working my way through the DLC missions. As I understand, Frozen Way is consistently working on patches to improve the game performance. With that in mind! This remaster is MUCH buggier than the original. I've had issues with menus not dismissing, furniture pushing me out of bounds, lighting engine difficulties, and textural hiccups. Each bug I've experienced has been reported - but I'd like to let people know that MAYBE they'd like to wait for a more stable version at the current price tag. I was able to run both House Flipper & House Flipper 2 on my current build without issue, but something about this remaster pushes the 3D rendering elements of my GPU to 75% to 80% even at medium settings, and the lighting - even when I turn the lights off behind me - tends to flicker after a specific amount of time, rendering the flashlight useless when working at night. While I would gladly attribute this to my older hardware, I was able to run the prior entries of this game without issue, and each patch I'm hoping things improve. I'll gladly edit this review once things stabilize, either through work from Frozen Way, or my own troubleshooting.

Oh that's right. I did not like the original. I forgot about that. They remastered the game and did not fix all the terrible parts. I don't want to assemble radiators over and over and over again. The buyers are impossible to please. You have to pay to reject the offers so you either get it all right the first time or you lose. It is glitchy and the tools are still annoying. This was an opportunity to improve the game. The new jobs and houses are the only things that got better but flipping the houses isn't fun at all with these buyers.

Wer bereits House Flipper und House Flipper 2 hat, wird von diesem "aufgewärmten" Produkt enttäuscht, man hätte die Bedienung auf House Flipper 2 anpassen sollen, das hätte dann Sinn gemacht, so zahlt man viel Geld für Dinge die man bereits hat, die nur minimal besser / anders umgesetzt wurden. Ich muss ganz ehrlich sagen, ich habe die Ausgabe hierfür voll bereut, bin davon enttäuscht. House Flipper 2 ist die bessere Wahl. Man hätte besser House Flipper 2 weiter entwickelt, doch man wollte nochmal Geld mit House Flipper 1 verdienen. Dies ist mein Eindruck. Das Game ist nur für Leute die gerne House Flipper 1 kaufen möchten mit vielen Erweiterungen, für diese Personen ist diese Teil dann etwas besser, wobei man auch hier sagen kann, warum zurück in die Vergangenheit wenn mit House Flipper 2 eine bessere Steuerung hat, auf Dauer mehr Optionen.

I’m really disappointed because the game is so buggy and unplayable with a controller. As soon as you load a job or a house and try to move around, the movement is so sensitive that you end up walking straight into walls; sometimes it lags so badly that I can't move at all. To get it working, I have to go into the graphics menu, change the quality from "Ultra High" to "High," and then switch it back to "Ultra High." It’s incredibly annoying having to do this every time I load a house or a job. I’ve tested it with a keyboard and it works fine, but the moment I use a controller, I can't move around properly.

What really annoys me quite a lot is that the developers dare to put out the same game with EXACTLY the same (partly game breaking) bugs that were reported over and over again and ignored in favour of selling HF2, for double the price of the original game. For those original players: they didn't fix any of the things you raised. For new players: don't waste your money.

I am a longtime fan of the series. I’ve enjoyed HF1, HF2, and all the DLC, and House Flipper Remastered does a great job of combining some of the best elements of both games. The renovated toolkit is really freaking nice. The tools feel smoother, more intuitive, and much better to use, while still retaining what I loved about the original game. The addition of actual building construction is especially nice. Instead of being limited to the original structure, I set up my starter plot with three tiny homes rather than just the one. That added freedom opens up a lot of creative possibilities and gives me considerably more to do with each property. My one real complaint is the lighting. During the environment’s dusk and dawn phases, it can get seriously wonky. The colors become distorted, and the lighting flickers in ways that are distracting and clearly not intentional. The developers have made improvements, so I know they’re actively working on it, but they still seem to be struggling to get it fixed correctly. There are also a few HF2 features I would love to see added, particularly co-op and the helper tool assigned to “Q.” I’m looking forward to Workshop support as well because community-created content added so much variety and longevity to HF1. Right now, Remastered is still getting there, but it is much more than the same game with prettier graphics. It meaningfully improves the tools, expands what we can build, and gives longtime players new ways to renovate and create.

Pile of garbage. Instead of fixing bugs from the original or improving things mechanics wise/adding more quality of life they acutally managed to add new bugs ....
