Yep, Prodeus looks like Doom with QTEs. Could be good, though.

I'm kind of ambivalent about updating Blood's graphics. As madcows said, part of Blood's appeal was its lo-fi look. I fear a graphics update would put in too many grays and browns and shadows where the original used a lot of simple colors in weird combinations. This shouldn't have worked, but it did.

Unreal was a big advancement for sure. To me, though, it looked weird. Everything was smudgy and right angles. Chairs were especially funny. Somehow Quake 2 didn't look quite as funky. Of course, Quake 3 gave us more or less rounded geometry and better textures. NOTHING WAS EVER THE SAMEsamesamesame
