I am a player of the whole series with each part that ever appeared and I was so eager for a remastered Syberia. And now what did we get? A total crap that ruins the whole experience - I bought it on Steam and after the first 30 minutes I asked for a refund. Let me explain: 1) the videos are basically the old ones, they are not remastered at all. 2) Kate looks lifeless and without emotion, the eyes in particular are dead. 3) All points of interest are highlighted over the whole scene, so no reason to search the surrounding for something useful to interact with - a complete destruction of the game mechanics. 4) The German translation obviously was made by some AI and never checked by a native speaker - irritating to say the least. 5) The sound was not improved but somehow worsened - the same speech files (at least in the German version including that ridiculous Momo voice) and background music becomes soon enervating. All in all, the good features have been destroyed and the bad ones maintained. What a wasted opportunity to create a real transformation of this classic into our present! I prefer playing the old version again - that seems more true to Benoit Sokal's intentions.
