BTW @chakkman Would you mind renaming the thread to something more descriptive please ? -

I am unsure if I find the game colourful, but I find the NPCs that were shown look comically, except for the zombies. -

Hm I'm not sure if you're mistaken me here. To be more specific, I meant that I don't like the NPCs because they look like the old models but just more . . balloon-like. Personally I would prefer a more bold change of the models, not trying to keep the "silhouette" . But I agree on that they can only lose , staying as close as possible to the original with minor changes. The game will still look and feel old for newcomers but it won't feel like the same for the veterans anymore. -

I can't get around those smoothed out guards tbh. I wouldn't say that graphics are definitely better than the original game plus newdark. At least from the trailers. -

I can't seem to wrap my head around that we, the audience, want to pay for a game that we already know since the beginning , especially when we already have so many fan missions and tfix . What is the benefit of replaying what we already did multiple times with no real addition (I don't know how huge the new campaign will be) except smoothed out fluffy models and another HD texture pack. Don't get me wrong, this is not a rage post nor defying each ones taste. Serious question though. -

For me it feels like the Remaster is caged in between the purists that want exactly the same game and the same maps (the "Vision of LGS" as they've played it over the past 20 years) and the appeal to new players who are looking for something that has the level of a modern game. I didn't play the Remasters of Night dive studios, so I can't tell anything about how they will do it in the end. My wish is that they fix everything that was caused by the lack of time or knowledge to build the game, its maps and assets. Not to only wrap around another engine and leave the rest as is. That would probably not appeal to the purists who will complain that textures and models don't look like thief 1 (and make base game assets stand out in FMs anyways). That would not appeal to people who played the game zero or only a few times in their childhood because they wonder why maps look partly unfinished or models and graphics overall look still dated. I don't know how to think of it. I was soo excited when the remaster was announced, but seeing the progress in the two trailers I am not that sure anymore if this will be the Remaster that makes me happy. -
Okay I am totally with you except maybe for the nuclear reactors. If we were able to save the green energy, and use it when needed I think that would be much more safe. However I have no reliable source on how much "batteries" we need to store enough. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this, I really appreciate your words oh wise pinhead !

Maybe just that they won't break when loaded haha -
Hm unless we don't have a passionate person here currently for knowing how to do animations I fear this new rig may be lost in time soon. I really wish you could find the time to transfer it into enhancements of the base game yourself.

What new FM editor ? They said they just used DromEd with a few minor tweaks to navigation / GUI -

I had the same feelings while watching the newest Atari trailer, yes.
