Unfortunately this game was an underwhelming experience for me as well. I think the main reason for this is that I never played the game when it came out and I’m missing the nostalgia of playing those remakes.
I experienced this with other games as well.
I don’t think it is a bad game, I agree with your opinion that it did not age well.
I liked the atmosphere, the emptiness and the desperation of the main character.
I think I get why this game has a special place in someone’s heart, but it’s simply not for me.
