  Fan since launch day of the original. I really love the new release in almost every way, but honestly feel the puzzles are easier though that is probably the product of them making more sense in the context of the world. Part of me welcomes the more logical interpretations of puzzles yet I also want them nearly impenetrably difficult. 😅

  The CG characters ruined this for me. The original was my favorite game when it came out. I would have gladly bought this new one to support the company, but just can’t do it with those awful character graphics. Bring back the movie integration! They should have all the original footage on greenscreen. It shouldn’t be that difficult with all the AI technology today to resize the movies to a higher resolution?

  Yes, but this game was also made to be played in VR. And I think you can imagine how bad having flat 2D video in a VR adventure game would look. And how would you account for scenarios like meeting Gehn, where he walks around you? Locking the camera would make sense but then you can't freely look anymore. I know it's different but they changed it for a reason. I just wish it had an option to use the original vocal performances for every character, not just Ghen. I love Rand's delivery as Atrus. He has a softness to his voice that's missing from the new actor's delivery.

  @@chrisfratz I highly doubt that there will be as many people playing this game with a VR headset as there are just on a regular computer or even tablet. VR headsets are still expensive and people would either already need to have one or have to buy one on top of having a computer to hook it into. The target market is definitely NOT VR no matter what anyone says, even the game developers. They would not make nearly enough money to compensate for the hours spent redoing this game if it was intended for VR. If that was the case they would have done a MUCH better job on these computer models of the people to make them blend in better with their environments. They look extremely plastic-y and Polar-Express-like and the technology is already here to make them look better. SO, why didn't they? It's not a matter of money because they spent a ton of time redoing the rest of the game. They could have spent the same amount of time re-recording new video (even from different angles) and using that instead of these horrible cgi figures.

  @@timz9862 You can buy the Oculus Quest 2 for $200 brand new. That's less than the Nintendo Switch or Xbox Series S. Yes, it's an older model, but it's still a great headset and you can play Riven on it in standalone, without a PC. And it's pretty clear this remake was designed with VR in mind. It's why stuff like the Maglev sequences were shortened and less shaky in compared to the original. And again, because they designed this game to be playable in VR. They can't do video. Unless you want everyone to be a stationary hologram or only viewable behind a window like in Obduction. And even then, the stereoscopic video in Obduction wasn't the best, in my opinion. A lot of the changes they made to the environment was to accommodate VR. I get that the video is nostalgic and in my opinion still holds up. But like I said, they made this change for a reason. Whether you like it or not, it is what it is. TLDR: The target market is absolutely VR. They just opted to include a flat mode so even more people could play it.

  ​@@chrisfratz Even with VR, you are only ever looking at a character that's talking to you in one direction at a time. In that respect VR is useless. For the environments, it's fine because you can turn and look around. When you are trapped in a cage, or someone is talking to you, the game does not let you move around. You are fixed in the same spot until that interaction ends.

Realistically, how much money can it cost to have a different .exe?
