    Textures aren't remastered by hand, but simply upscaled with an AI-model, probably ESRGAN. On the one hand, AI provides astonishing results, and this game is probably the first commercial one, that totally relies on this feature. Therefore they should give the open source authors more credit. On the other hand, you can easily spot the artifacts of this method: washed out/unreadable text onTextures aren't remastered by hand, but simply upscaled with an AI-model, probably ESRGAN.

Therefore they should give the open source authors more credit. On the other hand, you can easily spot the artifacts of this method: washed out/unreadable text on posters etc, problems with transparancy, homogeneous hatchings, frayed edges and general look like an oil-painting. Unfortunately combined with the other issues already mentioned by other reviewers the overall impression is not good at all. I remember that the "no sound" bug was already in the original version, so I suppose they kept most of the source base. An outdated source code architecture could also explain the constant fps drops. 5 points because your budget is low, i really love this game and i suppose your intentions were good. Expand

    Commandos 2 HD has had a fresh lick of paint and a nice polish but that's about it. It would have been nice to bring something new to the table in terms additional missions or new commandos. In today's world of video games, It just does not hold up against its peers. I do look forward to the planned 3rd installment they have mentioned. This is also due out on consoles in spring 2020 and hopefully, this title will have more modern bells and whistles attached to make it more appealing.

    The remaster of the famous game didn“t meet expectations, despite having a few bright spots. This is a very bad remake of a very good game. [Issue#301]
