Is this a joke? The original looks much better!

Just look at this. I know it's just a 3€ "upgrade" but why would anyone pay that for WORSE graphics?

Get a pair of glasses, and secondly you are ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ comparing a game graphics through freaking youtube, anyone with half brain knows that you can't clearly compare game graphics through youtube because youtube doesn't really stream in HD as it should, if you wanna compare game graphics you should have to play both versions.

Wait, the new version is supposed to look better? I have trouble seeing because of the messed up light that just causes red flashes all the time, and the NPCs' glassy eyes look like they're just about ready to pop up and jump at me.

Started both versions today and choosed new game so I could experience and see differences.

And what i could see on new version was better:

1. Lightning
2. Textures
3. Imroved animations and ragdooll.
4. Loading times is alot faster
5. Game UI is better in my opinion. (small changes can make a difference)

Gfx settings choosen on both versions: BEST QUALITY by clicking on it at bottom of page.

End words, buy or just dont. ;)

Yes, I'm sure I could have. I took the shot because I took the same one back in 2011. If you can't see the difference then get your eyes tested.

I could do, there are parts which are pitch black which you need a torch for. Again, if you can't see the difference you're blind. Or you have your monitor too dark.

Let me spell it out for you just from that shot.

Better textures
Better lighting
Better shadows
Better models
Better effects overall.
