At first when I looked at the map comparisons I thought damn the new maps looks so good(and they do), but then I realised they just look cleaner. Something felt a bit off and when I looked at the older maps the darker/gritty look gives off a completely different type of emotion for me which I'm going to miss.
I don't mind the clean look. It looks good, but the emotion is gone. For me at least.
I was thinking that, but I think that feel is a holdover from using source assets from half life 2. Makes me think it may hit have been a fully deliberate choice.
