On the positive side, the game offers improved graphics and new achievements, making it appealing for longtime fans who enjoy the nostalgic aspects and new Steam achievements. However, many players also highlight technical issues such as crashes and unresolved bugs, which diminish the overall experience. Additionally, some view the remaster as a cash grab with minimal updates.
