Nep, that implies that you're not at all happy with what JAW have shown so far. Do you really think their work is that terrible, and is comparable to low quality remakes?

Many of the people working at JAW are fans of the game, too - They'll try their best to make the remake as good as they can, depending on their limitations. Jordan is right.

I mean personally I'm happy this is happening at all - What's been shown so far looks pretty damned good despite the lack of polish. And I'm not licking anyone's arse - As a long-term fan of a game which, for me, is of huge significance, I genuinely do like what's been shown so far.

Yes, I do have a few niggles about some of the new content - Yes, I'm not 100% happy with what's been shown, but many of my concerns are because it hasn't been polished yet, and I don't feel it's really fair of me to voice them. Overall, it's a lot better than what I was hoping for, anyway.

Yeah I also understand that many people here really care for the franchise, but perhaps some of your expectations are too high. Sure, people can give creative criticism here, but it's up to JAW's discretion whether they read it and take it on board or not.

/tipsy ramblings

E: People are also forgetting that the original game isn't going anywhere. Yeah, many of you may consider it to be a wasted opportunity if JAW can't get the remake "right" in your opinion, but who else would want to do this? And do some of you really think their work is that terrible?
At no point did I say any of it was terrible, all I said was that I don't want it to turn out bad. And there's a flaw in your argument about still having the origibnal. Yes, we still have it, but if the remake comes out bad, the new generation of players will assume the original to be poor, too. Again, this is what happened with the Silent Hill HD Collection, think of me as an overprotective parent.
Again, though, I'm not saying the end product will be bad, I'm thinking of the consequences and how to stop them from happening. I still have faith in JAW, but just because they're fans doesn't give them the right to fuck up and get away with it (Tomm Hulett).
