Wonderfully fun characters mostly still look great, Varied level designs are visually charming
Some serious camera issues make basic tasks unreasonably troublesome, Unreliable controls can cause some real pain around bad geometry, Lack of checkpointing and progression issues can mean having to backtrack and replay levels multiple times
MediEvil is a remake that should have taken more chances. Specifically, the gameplay needed to be reimagined for a 2019 audience. Instead, it just feels dated and obnoxious in a way that spoils its redeeming qualities...
