Until Dawn Remaster - Blog Posts

Microscopic Until Dawn Spoiler

I've been actively trying to avoid spoilers, but a tiktok clip was just a little too fast for me and it showed me a few seconds of the changes prologue of Until Dawn and even the smallest changes are making me so fucking happy. They finally changed Beth's robotic; "Where's my sister going?" line into one that actually sounds genuinely normal.

Until Dawn Remake: New scenes that I hope have been added

Interactions between characters who have zero interaction. Like Emily & Chris or Jessica & Ashley.

Jessica having more screen time instead of being unconscious for half of the game.

Same for Matt, who if he survives the tower falling, is literally just wondering around aimlessly in the mines for half of the game until he reunites with Jess.

Matt potentially making it back to get to the safe zone and having opinions on the whole Mike/Emily/Gun scenario.

Emily and Jessica actually interacting without arguing? Maybe a potential to rekindle friendship? (Cause they're fighting over Mike the sleaze ball, really????)

Maybe more Beth and Hannah scenes? Longer prologue perhaps to actually flesh out relationships. Maybe Matt and Ashley actually have dialogue?

Honestly, if there's just more character/group interactions, I will be satisfied.

3 Fandoms I'm currently writing 3 fics for simultaneously.

3 Fandoms I want to start writing 3 fics for simutaneously.

but I'm afraid if I start writing 6 fanfictions at once I'll burn out so fast that I stop writing all of them.

because I'm physically incapable of writing oneshots, so all my fanfictions are multichapter.

New Until Dawn Trailer

The new Until Dawn trailer has just dropped that showed brief scenes in the new updated graphic style and some new scenes, and I have a few thoughts.

First of all, I think it looks absolutely incredible. I was freaking out the entire time when it first popped up onto my fyp. I know people were commenting on the lighting and complaining about it, specifically the scene they showed with Emily and Matt on the bridge, but I think it looked good and makes sense. I think people are a little confused and don't remember that that scene happens early on in the game, so that orangey/yellowy lighting is the sun setting.

Emily's hair. People have been making comments on Emily's hair and think it looks greasy and flat now. Yes, it does look different now compared to how she looked, but I'm pretty sure it's to make her hair more realistic. OG Emily's hair was completely round and didn't change shape throughout the entire game (besides when she's hanging upside down). Now, her hair falls natural. I personally don't mind how she looks before or now.

The first clip of a scene that is completely new. From the clips shown, I believe this is the only clip that is new, and it's Hannah and Beth helping Josh to a sofa. And I'm so curious as to what's happening in the scene and I have two theories. My first theory is that this is happening in the prologue, which is where we see both sisters alive and it would make sense for them to be helping Josh in the prologue because he's drunk when he first appears. I wouldn't mind if they expanded the prologue a little longer and allowed us to meet the characters before everything happens. My second theory is just Josh imagining his sisters alive, which wouldn't be OOC for him.

No blue tint? When I played the game, it was obvious there was a tint to the screen. I didn't mind the blue tint and when I play, I hardly notice it now. I don't know what people are saying about the blue tint being gone, but I really don't mind that it's gone.

The facial expressions! Everyone looks SO GOOD in these clips. Their expressions are good in the OG, but they're a little awkward. Now the characters ACTUALLY look like they're expressing themselves. Like Chris looks genuinely distraught in the clip where he has to pick between Ashley and Josh.

Fall release date. I'm so excited that it's confirmed to be releasing this year (I know they already said they'd be releasing it 2024, but I was worried they were gonna come out and say they were pushing the release date, which is honestly still a concern I have).

Overall, I'm genuinely hyped for this game to drop (especially to PC). I'm often a critic that finds things wrong or annoying with remakes of games, but I can't find it in myself to hate anything about this because it's Until Dawn!

Things I can't stop thinking about with the Until Dawn remake

Matt will be able to make it back to the lodge around the same time as Emily, which means he will be THERE when everything goes down in the safe zone!

Jessica will be there with Mike in the asylum, which could potentially mean that she's able to get back to the lodge WITH Mike.

Basically, I can't stop thinking about the fact that Jessica and Matt get more screen time in the new Until Dawn remake.

(when will they drop a release date already!?)

seeing until dawn get popular on tiktok because of the remaster is making me feel like a mother goose protecting her goslings… get behind me josh… get behind me sam…
