So We Finally Got a New Gothic Remake Update...
The Gothic Remake looks a lot better than it did when it was first unveiled (the teaser demo days). That said, it's an easy remake to screw up if the try and make the game's content more "accessible" and pander to "modern audiences.
The tone absolutely can't change and the difficulty progression needs to remain intact for the unique aspects to hold true.
They've talked about adding new content, I'm fine with that if it's in the emptier second half of the game and is about simply ADDING, not changing what was already in the original.
Best case, it's a faithful remake that introduces new fans to the series. Given the state of a lot of modern game development studios and how easy it'll be to stuff this up, reaching even that may be asking for too much.
