DC just adds that? I wouldn't pay for commentaries at all. If there were graphical enhancement and more content in the game I would probably buy the upgrade. But since I haven't played the game yet I wouldn't even want the upgrade...
yeah, I thought it's some sort if remastered edition, with improved graphics, cards, cheevos and all that. I already have played it, so not interested unless it's a significant update.

There's nothing else in the statement, maybe a graphics update is planned as well, but I don't think it will be something substantial Also it would be interesting to see if the console port will use the Source or ChineseRoom will switch to Unreal 4 or Unity.
Also, you miss nothing. Dear Esther is 30 minutes long, story is confusing and vague. For me, it's just a nice tech demo, but it's not even comparable to other "walking similator", since the only goal here is pushing W to proceed. There's really nothing else.
I don't agree with you, as far as waking sim goes, DE is most interesting of those I've played, not every story has to be simple and obvious. And discovering that story also finding clues along the way what makes it not horrid, it's also quite beautiful as a plus.
Now when I think about it, it probably was only walking sim I kinda liked.
edited: I also must say I haven't played Ethan Carter yet, which I probably will like better, if it's true what I know about it.
