I wish they did a bit more with this remake instead of just giving it a graphical overhaul and redoing animations. I would’ve loved it if they improved on the tendency mechanic (or removed it entirely) and even modified certain bosses like dragon god to make it more of an eventful fight. Still a great game, but a bit of a missed opportunity.
Improves on the original in a lot of ways and trims a ton of the fat that was present in the first. Exploring and getting all the collectables felt like a lot less of a chore in this, so I didn't mind going for the platinum. Still, requiring a full new game+ playthrough was a terrible decision and it didn't do anything but worsen my experience of the game.

Campaign: 6/10
Zombies: 8/10
Multiplayer: 5/10
Plenty of excellent choices and changes to the zombies mode that I enjoyed a lot and had a blast playing. The maps aren’t very good overall, but the gameplay is thoroughly enjoyable. Super sprinters were a terrible addition though.
As for the singleplayer, it was decent, but still a little mediocre. It didn’t blow me away or anything, but I still had quite a bit of fun finishing it. The best mission was where you had to infiltrate the soviet bunker. The diversity in paths you could take to reach your goal was a very enjoyable aspect and it’s a shame it wasn’t used in any other missions.

Everything Supermassive has made since Until Dawn has been an attempt to recapture the magic that game had, but none have succeeded in doing so or have even come close. Instead, they repeat the same structure and gameplay of Until Dawn, but without the charm or enjoyability that game had. The writing is very subpar and it lacks any form of scares thanks to its strange decision to remove jumpscares and opt for an unsettling atmosphere, which could have been a successful decision had it been done right. The horror of Until Dawn was for more effective and engaging and was a rare occurrence of jumpscares done successfully. But nevertheless, it was still a far more enjoyable experience than those awful Dark Pictures games.
