Hmm I wonder though, I'm a bit bias when it comes to TOM to me it seems like a lazy remake but I guess rebuilding. 2d world into 3d isn't easy.
However everything I read about this game sofar seems like it's what they did for TOM and then some.
Having played both, the fact that they didn't upgrade the character models alone is a huge indicator that they didn't outspend Trials.
Especially considering in Trials, each weapon model change is visible, as is various armor swaps.
They did none of that here(wish they did tho).
The menu system changes are slick, the world is beautiful (but tbh the original game was pre-rendered backgrounds as well) but the terrible character models wholesale lifted from 1998 is a baffling move.
Still excited to play it, as I LOVED the original but yeah, Trials takes it imo.
If only I wasn't banned from Era atm, cause that would be a good thread idea.
