XIII - Remake

A sad remake

As most of us here, I spent most of last year waiting in some sort of anticipation of the greatest remake of the year. While that's a slight exaggeration, this game has been delayed for a year, so I was pretty hyped for it. Imagine my disappointment when I loaded it, happy to relive reimagined childhood memories, and got confronted with this: Fortnite meets XIII in silent disco with weird ragdoll effects. Why? Because the sound effects keep cutting out, or playing way to late, the music, when actually there, is way to quiet so I have to crank op the volume.. NPC's just flat out refuse to die and instead dance around for a second in a weird, delayed, death animation. Furthermore there's glitches (NPC's without eyes or with white eyes: XIII meets exorcist! You gotta love them crossovers!) NPC's that keep on talking after dying or not finishing their sentences at all (or even better: not moving their lips at all!) There's clipping issues, raising the temperature of the pc for no apparent reason issues, just crashing to desktop issues, freezing menu issue (don't take too long adjusting the settings!) I seriously wanted to love this game, I really did. But in this state I simply can't. It's too much of a mess to really enjoy..
