Sure, make people who never played adventure games review adventure games. In all fairness, and as a huge Grim Fandango fan, I think there's a strong argument for *not* always simply matching reviewers with games they already know they'll love. It's Grim Fandango, remastered, with a few bugs. Is it so much to ask for someone to review a game that likes the genre of the game they're reviewing? I don't think this game deserves this headline or this review, but perhaps I'm biased.

The first half of the article was the Author basically saying, "I don't like old adventure games and I expected this to be different even though I knew full well that it wouldn't be". But then I've grown more skeptical of Schafer's decisions and business practices after seeing how Broken Age kind of blew up, and that is likely coloring my view a bit as well.

To be perfectly honest, outside of a few compatibility issues (most of which could be solved by a relatively intelligent end-user), I don't know that Grim Fandango really even needed a remastering to begin with. If the 'remaster' just upped the resolution and textures and cleaned up the audio (did it really need cleaning up? I don't remember any issues with the audio at all), I would not be surprised to see the same graphical bugs again, but perhaps in slightly sharper detail. They weren't omnipresent, but they were occasionally there.

The original game had the same issues 17 years ago though - a character with its mouth out of its face, floating misplaced 3d objects, etc. Unless someone can compare both packages, there is a possibility of the two being different.Ĭould also be their review copy doesn't like their current video card drivers. I think the comment is more like a build released for steam might not be as patched as the GOG Build. Steam doesn't magically make geometry in games glitch out. Makes an old game more fun to play once again. So, maybe you have the STEAM version? Anyhow - I'm loving the new high-def textures and geometry. Then again, I have the GOG version with no DRM.
