We already have a community maintained newDark engine. Don’t see any reason for the commercial remaster. Especially from Nightdive. Their remasters are boring. They avoid improvements unless it is inevitable. Their recent System Shock 2 (Thief 1 engine by the way) remaster was… the same game community made a decade ago. Boring.


In a few years it would be a $20 25 hour long game without DRM. Worth waiting – they say the game is unexpectedly nice.
That’s very crazy reasoning. On par with “I like when read.me has not more than 50 ‘O’ literals” :)
Anyway, I was talking about modern players who haven’t played original.
