Good. I heard this version was pretty faithful to the original and did not opt to censor anything from the original.
That is how games that are remastered or remade should be done: as faithful as possible to the original with the absolute minimal changes necessary.
If developers want to have a remade story that makes a lot of changes, then include it as an alternate mode. As long as the original is faithfully recreated, I have no problem trying out a new way to play. But only including the new way to play rubs me the wrong way. Its like someone in development said “I know better than the original team, and my ‘better’ version is the only one people will get to play.” I steer clear of those.
Resident Evil Deadly Silence did this, where it had its own “Rebirth Mode,” along with “Classic Mode.” Literally all remakes and remasters should have this.
So I guess Aftermath is the new Kotaku? Theyre hiring all the people that used to work there, and Kotaku didn’t exactly have the best reputation lately. I don’t see Aftermath’s angle where they think things will be better for them.
