The HD mod is amazing. Love playing with it.
The only uncertainty I have is the stretch filters. There does not seem to be a good explanation of what they do online apart from a few old Reddit posts.
The official website still has that section under construction.
I've backed the project a few days ago. First time I heard about it was here. I wonder if the project was advertised to all major communities.
It would be a shame if they didn't make it.
The cutscenes are very awkward. If there was not enough money in the budget for real cutscenes why not explore different ways of storytelling rather than that weirdness?
But anyway that's just one of the many issues with the game.
