Last month we showed you a bit of a peek in to the Research level of Citadel, so let's dive deeper and see some old vs new comparison shots.

Looks so good, very happy with the kind of 80's retro future cyberpunk look. The bloom is over the top, which i would rarely praise, but here it looks very fitting.

Gotta laugh at some of the comments there though, if people want it to look "Just like the original" then why the hell don't they just play the Beamdog version (which plays really great i have to say). Just updating the textures would not really work, it would look fucking dumb, they HAVE to overhaul the aesthetics for it to really come together in a pleasing way, and i think they've managed that here.

Overall doing sci-fi environments must be kind of tricky because references is not so easy to come by as e.g and old town or a forest etc.

Yeah this looks pretty good to me. I didn't play the original so I'm looking forward to giving it a go when it comes out.
