It's not as bad as I was expecting.
The designs, like the characters, vehicles, weapons, and environments seem faithful to the original. I was worried we'd see something like 4 and Anniversary: bright, sickly colors, over-designed models, and neon forerunner structures.
Still not very optimistic, however. The photo-realism, while novel to see an old game in this style, will likely hurt the mechanics that relied on simpler graphics, like quickly recognizing an enemy's rank by their color

I also laughed when I saw sprint in the gameplay. All that talk about faithfully recreating the original and they're still insistent on this shit.
