Its not impossible to meet expectations. The problem is all these new people coming in wanting to add their own mark to the game. I don't want any of that. I would prefer the Metroid Prime Remastered treatment, but because Konami lost the final version of the SH2 source code, we cannot have that. We have to get a remake.

And fine, if the new people want to add their own mark, I am happy to try that out as a separate mode. But try to make a very faithful recreation 1:1 first. This way the original can be preserved in as close to possible its original way with improved graphics, lighting, fidelity, and minor QoL changes such as bugfixes or faster load times.

I wish the game.was more faithful to the original, and that Bloober wasn't behind it. As it stands, it will not hold a candle to the original, where it easily could have if they did it properly.
