It isn't a moot point because regardless of what they promised it still doesn't make it rightĪnd yes some remakes have been 1:1 or at least close enough

If you want to know my thoughts more in depth, go watch the podcasts I did with some friends a few years ago:

Yes IK EE exists, but some would like a 1:1 remake that is the original but in full HD 3D.Īlso look at the Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Destroy all Humans, Dead Space, Tony Hawk, etc Remakes, they are 1:1 and they are fantastic. I have followed this game for all 7 years and counting, and even though the game is not out we know enough to have an idea. I am not here to argue with anyone or tell you how to feel, I am expressing the issues that many fans have with it so that anyone that doesn't already know is informed.Īlso it has been 7 years and they constantly change the release date, so there is that as well. They could at least brand it as a reimagining, since it sure isn't "faithful" (not to my def anyway) and not 1:1. Now some won't mind the changes and that is fine but for many of us that love the original and don't want anything major changed (outside of general graphic updates), these things are important aspects and vital to the identity and spirit of the original to change them rips out a part of the games' soul. lighting is much darker than the originalĪnd that is just what we know so far, there may be more differences we don't know about cyberspace is completely different in look, music, and layout Many enemies, items, weapons, etc are missing or redesigned and do not resemble their original versions Original Music is missing, replaced with unfitting ambiance I wanted to make a list to help inform people of the changes so that more are aware The System Shock Remake is not System Shock 1, it has so many differences that it isn't really the same game at this point but rather a sort of hybrid of a sequel, remake, and reimagining.
