This is the first I've heard of this remaster. Absolutely adore this game. And I appreciated the work Nightdive put into the new System Shock.
But seeing the screenshots for Dark Forces... it very much looks like a half-ass job using computer-assisted upscaling (possibly some sort of generative AI, too). I've played the original using DarkXL/The Force Engine, and I feel like Nightdive is just reproducing this (albeit with "new" cutscene artwork).
I would love to be pleasantly surprised.
