I have an impression i'm the only person in this universe who likes the new art direction and where everything is going.

Nah, I'm totally fine with all the new art style and the direction the reboot is going. I'm eager to see what Night Dive have in store.

I didn't mind the new art style either. Just bring on more video updates done in the style of this one please.

We'll get a far better view of exactly what's going on if they do.

The art style is maybe okay. It just seems like they are too ambitious. Iit is daunting enough to remake a game, and I am a bit sceptical about them rebooting the game.

Don't like:

-KS bait and switch. Presenting ultra purism and then when they got their money, did something else only partially related with it. Good thing I'm not one of those suckers who throws my money at people based on promises alone.
-Doing the typical reboot shit and replacing the original in title: calling it "SYSTEM SHOCK".
-What they were honest about. Their shit boring approach to music.
-I am not convinced their design talent have what it takes to deliver true LGS-style greatness, though am open to being wrong. People probably didn't expect high quality and something worthy of a classic from me either.
-Possibly too realism-centric level design, but this is a minor concern as the original was somewhat realism-focused too. I just hope they don't cross a line.
-Added stealth playstyle. Shock was a combat game at its core, period, and introducing stealth as an always available option conflicts with this and also changes up the design considerably. After five years modding Deus Ex I say pick stealth or combat and focus on one. If you want optimal stealth or combat anyways, rather than the two treading on each others toes.
-Confident fear it will be just like every other modern game of this type. That being, generally weak...and being too similar to them. Somewhat overly commercialised, similar gameplay, and generally not representative of Shock/classic LGS ingenuity. 

I won't really be following this one, though I will most likely get it after it releases, depending on what the old guard say. As always expect the worst, hope for the best.
