Relive the groundbreaking, critically acclaimed Half-Life 2 like never before, reimagined with RTX Remix. Demo with full ray tracing, remastered assets, and ...
I honestly don’t think this looks very good. The lighting and assets look good on their own, but this remaster completely changes the art direction of the original, and it ends up losing a lot of the atmosphere that the original had.
I hope they make some last minute changes, or we at least get a mod to restore it to the original game’s aesthetics.
I think a simple color grade, and tweaking/removing some of the lights could basically fix it, so I’m a bit surprised they took this approach. It looks like they prioritized tech demo over faithful recreation.
Yeah, the lighting was done for the regular lighting system. If you change that, you change how everything appears and basically have to redo all the lighting in the game.
I think it looks better just some parts are probably too bright compared to the original but the shadows being physically accurate is a noticeable improvement.

It’ll probably be heavily modable , at least I hope so.
It’s just a mod for HL2, so I imagine it can be modded the same way as HL2
