Every single thing about the graphics and gameplay are better. There's way more detail in dismemberment as you sheer through first the skin, then the muscle, then the bone. Enemies go through different levels of disability with each layer. Meaty fun.
Every single thing about the story is worse. The comm-link calls are so fucking stiff now. The original character models pulled a Shadow of Colossus where the screen blurred when the animation detail got too demanding and it worked. The remake you have higher quality 3D character models, but they look so lifeless. Like a mo-cap model that they couldn't figure out the facial features too.
The voice acting is also SHIT. So many line deliveries that had actual emotion in the original, are now delivered so fucking flat.
Except the voice that Isaac now has is pretty good. Cool touches like gasping in pain during conversations when your health is low. He starts swearing like a madman if you repeatedly stomp monsters. He swears at equipment that runs out of ammo.
++++ no turret section
+++ graphics
++ gameplay
+ Isaac voice
-- cutscene animation
-- voice acting direction
Play the original if you've never tried Dead Space before.
Play this after you play the original. |
