They should have bought all assets from River of Time and it would have looked amazing indeed...
The original did have step movement, and in fact, I remember there was a bug in the swamp that required you to turn it off. I think there was a chest buried in muck that you couldn't open unless you turned it off.
I really do want to see the new content though. I'm sure it actually is good, but everything else looks so god awful that I just can't bring myself to try it. I had such a bad experience with the BoD remake on launch day.
That footage is from the Early Access version and it's almost a year old. The released game looks slightly better.
Here, judge for yourself.
Cool.That look worse than the original pixel art by a pretty significant margin.
That is absolutely retarded to say. Have you paled the new game? The cities look amazing.
Indeed
Yes, and they can even join your party :D
Also you can create characters like this:

Star Trail? Definitely no direct steps like in BoD or classic dungeon blobbers. I remember playing it again 3 years ago and it was distracting. Maybe there was an option for step movement I used, I can't remember. But it was clunky because it was meant for "fluid" movement like Ultima Underworld or Ambermoon.
Does anyone know this guy? State of Arkania 2 is sorely needed
Jesus, it looks like a red Grum from Tim and Eric.Yes, and they can even join your party :D

Yes, you could switch between step-movement and fluid movement. I think Star Trail might be the first and only game that offered that.
The graphics in the new versions look great when turned up. The animations are nice, there is nothing to complain about.
Actually dude, the graphics look like garbage and I regularly play games from the 80s with 16 colors. Please just accept that sometimes, old 2D is prettier than new 3D.Like I said, this game is for people who love rpgs - not people who are hypercritical of graphics, or thinks only old games used pixels.

Lady Error, who picked a female picture and name, is a known graphics snob. It makes sense for him since he picked a female picture and name, flying a flag saying he likes form over function like almost all females. The rest of you who are saying the RoA trilogy are some of your favorite games I call you liar. Where were you 15 years ago when I the only one defending them? These games are far too complicated for hipsters, remake or old version, to be liked by the new codex kids. You are just spewing lies.

They'll probably also complain because characters fall through the floor and text boxes change from English to German mid-sentence.
I had to reinstall the game to make sure I didn't miss anything. Just compare Kvirasim the original with the remake. I don't know how you can be serious about this being any form of improvement. The town got reduced to the interactive buildings, got populated with zombies and malformed trees and the swamp? apparently releases alot of fluorescent gasses. Probably they have some kind of hallucinogenic effect on the local populace, so they won't kill theselves. Traders apparently have to stand in front of their stallsand generally sitting seems to be not a pastime invented yet.
I know these would be idiotic nitpicks if this was a game from 2000, but here is the point, it is not. And instead of going full retard 3D, a high res 2D overhaul of the original could have produced a more pleasing result. Oh, but wait, that takes actual artistic competence and some kind of vision.
No gotta do 3D because... probably easier to model 3D shapes with the current tools than actually draw 2D stuff. Fuck them.
ST has new animated models that look good, look at the second trailer in steam.
As to your other points, BoD HD fixed the major bugs of the orginal, added a ton of new content, and changed things that kept millions from trying BoD, like the xp penalty for saving. If you think it looks bad, great. I think most AAA games look silly and like shit. My favorite graphics are the simple but sharp kind, like in ToEE, Wiz8, and I think the eschalon games had really sharp graphics. TToN had nice graphics.
I rate games on content, systems, and functionality. As long as it has a decent UI and not-ASCII graphics I don't give a shit.
But, checkout the trailers of ST, it improved on all the superficial shit everyone was whining about.
