Honestly..not strictly a bad game but there's just something not quite there.

The devs clearly acknowledged that the game would benefit from having certain parts cut or altered; yet there were things left in that just aren't great game design. Almost every instance of platforming was kept or even extended for no sensible reason. Especially considering how much poetic license was taken with Xen; so much could have been tweaked throughout the game but was instead repeated verbatim.

All in all a fine remake but it's hard to overlook the repeating of crap 90s design choices in a game made in the 2010s.
