      I was really sad when they disbanded the visceral games I was waiting for the sequel all these years Calisto protocol was fine but it wasn't really what I wanted hope this game sells so we get sequels

      This game is one of the all time great horror games. I love this one, Alien: Isolation, and the earlier Doom where you could only have the gun or light, but not both, in your hands at any one time. Each for different reasons, but all three had points I had to stop playing because it unnerved/frightened me so much at times, just truly great horror experiences.

    One of the most terrifying things I remember about the necromorphs was how they can randomly change up their speed at which they approach you. Usually they slowly shamble towards you so you have a false sense of security thinking you have plenty of time to take them out, but then they suddenly break into a full on sprint and rush you

    I'm looking at this the same way I looked at the RE1 remake and how much it changed and kept the same. Letting you explore the Ishimura fully, the weapon changes, Isaac fully voiced, new cutscenes, the gravity control from the sequel, but keeping the aesthetic and story intact with a (mostly) brand new cast. AND new enemies and a new secret ending? Legit worth grabbing.

    Dead Space 2008 was the first game I ever preordered. Despite next to no hype surrounding it (that I knew of at the time, at least), it just looked unique, and I had never really PLAYED horror games before. I absolutely loved it.
    Motive earned my faith and trust with Squadrons, and it made this remake one of the three games I've preordered in the last five years. I am deeply excited, and very glad to see reviews have been so positive. This is what passion and talent can do.

    I distinctly remember playing Dead Space when it first came out. I remember rolling my eyes when EA said they were publishing a Survival Horror game - I half expected it to be terrible, so I decided to rent it from a local Blockbuster.
    I played it alone in the dark. It was honestly a terrifying experience… and I had lots of experience with survival horror games at that time.

    Having played this game 10 years ago, I struggle to justify paying premium dollars for a game that had it's foundation, story, and mocap in place years ago. Yes, adding new lighting and textures looks awesome, but this is EA trying to sell a game at full price with 1/3 the work of the original developers. I'm waiting for it to hit 19-29 dollars in a few months when EA realizes other games are taking its appeal away.

    Hey Karak, I just want to say I really appreciate how concise your videos are. I have a friend trying to grow a small channel and he often bounces his thoughts off of me. In the process of trying to find what works and doesn't I've ended up looking at the content I enjoy most through a more critical lens. I keep coming back to your channel for an assortment of examples they can pull from for a variety of reasons. Though the thing I feel really rings true with your channel is it feels like you've taken the time to work on a script and distilled it down to the most succinct version of itself. That and your more humble personality really resonates. Anyway, thanks for content man, always love seeing a new video drop.

    I had already pre-ordered it for $41 a month ago, so I'm just here to hear the review. The OG game is still as good as it ever was (even better on PC), but even six or seven years ago it was starting to show its age with many of the textures. While I am getting a bit tired of the remaster/remake trend, this game kind of needed the visual upgrade.
    Glad it seems to be stable and bug free from day one...unlike a certain other "Dead Space" game that recently released.

    The greatest 'low-key' appeal of the original was the ship itself - the Ishimura. A ship that actually felt like a ship, coherent, logical, functional. With the remake it now feels gargantuan in size, you're dwarfed by the immense engineering which fires out spectacularly as you restore function. Fabulous remake, keeping the claustrophobic desperation, quality voice acting and internal logic. Now we have some of the best use of lighting I've ever seen in a game. 9/10

    Watching the first couple of minutes of this: It doesn't look like they fixed the (slightly) annoying movement system - where you cannot move diagonally and, instead, have to awkwardly turn sideways and strafe. :(
    For whatever reason: The lack of a diagonal moving option was not a big deal for me back in 2008, when the game released, but quickly became annoying when trying to replay it much later.
    Knit-picking aside: The game looks fantastic and I'll TRY to wait for a sale.

    The reason Issac is "stiff" is due to the RIG (Resource Integration Gear) on his back, imagine having a Steal pole strapped to your spine, you wouldnt be so limber either.
    the CEC Engineering RIG was designed for Protection against hazardous environments and physical trauma , NOT mobility like the RIG's in DEAD SPACE 2 (ADVANCED SUIT), so it would make sense why issac would be "stiff and stout" instead of frolicking around like a ninja on steroids as the CEC ENGINEERING RIG was not made for combat, but rigorous work and dangerous environments.

    Beyond graphical fidelity, I can't really justify this. I have a PS3, and I have this game for it. Is it worth spending $70 to play a game that I already have but prettier? I don't think so, no. It's like The Last of Us Part 1 - the original holds up so well and this changes so little that it just doesn't make any sense for somebody who played and still has easy access to the original. Remakes like Resident Evil 2 and even upcoming RE4 that significantly modernize the experience and capture the original feeling without being too "samey" is the sweet spot (and bless Capcom for sticking to the $59.99 price point). This to me just smells like a way to resurrect an old franchise with a coat of polish to make it more appealing to a newer generation. I'll give it a look when it hits "deep deep sale" territory in a couple years.
