Is the Steam remaster worth buying or should I just emulate?

The only reason people play Soul Reaver is to watch its cutscenes. Since all cutscenes after the FMV intro are made in the game engine, the remaster is the better option. Closeup shots on the faces of crude, fifth-gen models are liable to sap the intended drama from a scene (if you've played MGS1, you'll be familiar with the problem). The new models are not very expressive, but they are a marked improvement.

Arguably the best way to experience Soul Reaver is not to play it but to watch a compilation of the cutscenes on YouTube.

seconding this.
honestly playing the game will not be an enjoyable experience anymore.
go through the cutscenes, enjoy the story it's great.

Legagy Of Kain though still holds up, I play it every 5-10 years, still spoopy.

It only has the weird ass graphical "upgrade" and using the second analog stick. It's no Shadow Man remaster.

9 times out of 10 the "upgrade", that you put in scare quotes, is in fact an objective upgrade.

I disagree strongly. To me it looks like someone just put HD models into the game that totally clash with everything else because they didn't give levels the same treatment.

>left: model looks much worse than its surroundings

Right wins.

He's been around for quite sometime unfortunately you learn to ignore him could just filter him I guess, I assume that's what most so

You say that like he's ruining a highbrow wine tasting. This is /v/, not your thesis defense. Let the man spam his goblin speak if he wants-adds flavor to the thread.

I prefer the original SR2 models though. Especially Kain, he looked amazing.
