Good on the devs, showed where they are up to in development, early days and looking promising. A bit of transparency with the fans is a positive.

- Analysis of dismemberment mechanics
- Comparison of visuals between Dead Space 1 final release and Dead Space Remake pre-alpha
- Analysis of Necromorph skin and tissue corrosion engine
- Showcase of Dead Space 2 zero gravity implemented on Dead Space 1 Remake
- Showcase of Dead Space Remake assets and comparison with those of the original
- Confirmation of Gunner Wright returning as Isaac Clarke and analysis of the team's thought process on whether they should honor the original's legacy and have him a silent protagonist or make him fully voiced - in the end, a compromise was made and Isaac talks only when spoken to
Yeah, WHOLE lot of nothing.
In the end, the majority of the stream was very satisfied with what the team showed, appreciated the transparency of EA Motive and many fears have been dissuaded.

Two manly looking men giving info about the game.
Surely this wasn't made this year.

Did we watch the same stream? It looks ten times better and we're in pre-alpha.

Yeah absolutely, this was really refreshing.
I would love to see something like that for every hyped game.

Awesome stream. Given EA tons and tons of shit in recent years (before this was announced) but I'm here applauding the fuck out of them right now.
Very well done stream and the game looks fire just from this early footage.
Do 2 and 3 after this pretty please!!

For one, there are vast improvements when you compare the images of the old and new side by side. And two, there is no way to play them on PS4/PS5 without using PS Now, not available globally. Thirdly, EA saw how well Mass Effect was received and want some extra dough.

Judging by this thread, I was right not to watch the nearly hour-long stream with "content creators" for the sake of one, maybe two juicy screenshots.

Hey man if that tickles yer fancy then by all means!
I've just been burnt too many times by EA's pre-release nonsense. Let's hope this will be the exception to the rule.

That was the perfect opposite of EA pre-release nonsense we've been getting longer than I can remember.

Probably my favourite game and I only bought it as I liked the box.

Having recently played Dead Space 3 on PC on 60 fps, I can safely dispute your statement. Necromorph movement looks more fluid in the Remake.
That said, Isaac's animations look almost identical.

People who claimed the original was perfect and visually still holds out perfectly well to this day either have no imagination or simply refuse to take off their nostalgia goggles.
From the moment technology evolves and improves itself, there's no way that visually what was acceptable in 2008 will be just as good today. And the same can be said twenty years from now.
Ray-tracing, improved character models and 3d assets, graphical fidelity, animation, VFX, lighting, 3D audio, aiming controls ... all those are things which can make this game even more realistic and scary to both old players and the new.
That's not to say that the Remake will definitely be better in EVERY aspect. Dead Space was the first experience in that campaign setting and the 'first time' feeling is impossible to replicate - let alone surpass -, especially if the developers plan to mimic the game's pacing, progression and scares to a tee. New voice actors may not be up to the task, the cutscenes may lack the original's flair and imagination, dialogues may seem off, the game may be easier or game sections may be cut due to time constraints.
But in terms of visuals, so far the remake blows the original out of the water, IMO.
We could be looking at a glorious return for one of the best IPs of the PS3/X360 generation.

Yes we did. I wouldn't be surprised if they are using the original devs code.
