Theres a remaster for this game? What could you possibly remaster so soon? Its still new
They redid her face, tons of lighting across the gameworld, and re-recorded tons of voice acting. I think maybe they also redid some motion capture. The original faces and animations were memorably pretty awkward. I read a bit from a developer suggesting they learned lots about what they would have done differently, so they did that.
As a huge fan of the original though, I'm hesitant to ever touch this since they changed so much. It'll feel like some ripoff or something. I find the original a gem, with flaws and all. Every game has flaws, and that's okay.
It feels like those creators who can't just leave their music or movies as it was and keep fucking with it.
That's how I was with Spiderman. Played through the entire game with the original face so that is the Peter Parker I associate with the first game. Little interest in the remaster as a result.
I didn't even know the Remaster changed his face for whatever reason until after I finished the game.
I got a mod that changes it back and it looks a lot nicer imo. I know they wanted to make Peter look a bit more like Yuri, the VA, but I still don't know why. Maybe it was a contract thing? Idk.
