A nice remake of a great game
I love Dear Esther since the first time I played. The game is perfect. Period. The game itself is a master piece. For a lot time I started to think that games are more than a "theme park", more than an obvious entertainment full of trite action. "Dear Esther" is one of that games that proved I am right. It is a imersive and poetic narrative. The mood is dark and sad. It could be a horror game, but it is not. It is more like an psychological narrative blended with ghost story elements. The soundtrack is perfect: it sets the mood perfectly and it tells the story when there is no narration. This remake improved the graffics and the soundtrack, there are some new narrative lines that weren't in the original game and the same voice actor from the original redoes his job and he does it perfectly. At least, it has some commentaries from the director and the composer that during the gameplay adds a lot the narrative and background knowledge about how the game was done. However there are a couple of things in this remake that I, personally, think that are flawed. * The caption are kind of problematic: the font is bigger than the original, I think they did this to make it easier to read, but sometimes the caption moves too quickly, so if miss a word and need to read the sentence again your're f*cked. * It p1sses me off that this remake hasn't any goodies. You may claim that goodies aren't that important, but since the original game had the ost as dlc, I expected that we could at least have the ost in this one too. * IIRC the original game supported VR better than this one,
