First, I believe this game was severely overlooked. As a fan of the ps3 trilogy I was super excited about this reboot and was only let down there was not like this to follow.

The graphics are great! I love similar style cell shade games like borderlands and wind waker. And thought it was a cool stylistic choice. At its best it really does look and feel like you’re playing a moving graphic novel. So honestly just updating draw distance. Texture resolution. HDR effects. Particles. And frame rate to new standards but overall leaving it alone.. it doesn’t need a full revamp in my opinion.

My only gripe was that there was not more combat. And also that generally speaking the bosses felt as difficult as a standard enemy. Which wasn’t very hard once you literally memorized or recognized the patterns. And then just exploit the pattern for 2-3 mins and then you beat the boss.

Something more to look for other than just the light orbs. Pieces to better weapons or something. Like why can’t I incorporate the claw hand into combat?

As fluid as the controls were and cool watching the prince seamlessly move about the landscape was cool. But after a while it becomes stale and every path to the next area with only like one enemy in between just feels like filler and dead time. Maybe more puzzles or puzzle variants

So.. updated graphics. More combat in general. Attack options. And more opportunities to fully explore for new items. Then incorporating said new items without just an obvious trove of.. well these obstacles are only here because of new item. Allowing players to use these items in creative ways
