Jesus christ the pacing of this game is actually unbearable
i was unironically ready to throw my controller at the screen when you have to chase down that stupid thing in the sewers and it just went on and on and on, just to re use assets
does the second part get any better in this regard? this shit is an absolute chore and All i can think of when playing is "id rather play the original, " im not having fun" and "i cant wait till this is over"
also holy fuck why japs have such an obsession with strobing lights on screen all the time, if the pacing wasn't bad enough, the game generously gives you a headache from the non stop flashing lights to boot

so this kinda does suck then after all, huh? im at the wallmarket and this ismy impression so far:
>original game has one of the most iconic sound tracks ever
>throw in a bunch of dogshit generic OC music and god awful remixes
>sit around doing shitty "puzzles" while a awful techno reggae remix of the walmarket theme plays god i just want this to end
>get to the actual wallmarket and theres shitty OC music that totally changes the vibe because they already used the wallmarket music
>overall vibe of the slums in general is completely lacking, completely misses the dark and seedy feel of the slums in the original. game is just so lacking in detail and "set dressing" overall. the best example of this point i can make is the train sequence on the way to the second reactor. npcs are all like...generic lifeless normie npcs with no personality, its once again missing the seediness. the train escape is turned into a generic fight against boring enemies instead of the old escape sequence,complete with stuff like one npc who picks your pocket when you walk by him
>pacing of the game is absolutely painful. some of the new stuff with jesse and the avalanche crew at the beginning was kind of novel, but progress through the story just continuously grinds to halt for no reason over and over again and becomes filled with pointless padding. every time you thin kits finally time to move on with the story it suddenly stops again., the whole game is just stop and go over and over where you take baby steps through the original plot then get bogged down in filler between the steps

Can it even be considered a remake at all?
