I personally think the footage we've seen so far is lacking in some of the atmosphere of the original. It has some real "Nintendo hire this man" energy, like someone plopped a Snake model into some kitbashed UE5 assets rather than thoughtfully adapting the original's aesthetic into the modern day. That comparison of the swamp area posted earlier is a great example - the yellow haze in the original is totally absent, which imo completely changes the mood. It's strange to me that the developers seem to care a lot about respecting the original game in some areas - to the point of reusing all the old voice acting rather than re-recording - yet arguably fumble the aesthetics.
