Very good video, my favorite game of all time is the original mirrors edge. So when I saw how much they changed, I was very disappointed. What you said about the graphics and colors are basically what my opinion is word by word. I agree that the twist about the sister was fun, however, I'm sure they knew they needed "something" to happen around that point in the story. So they they just chose the most relevant character to the Mc and said "oh no, their bad now" lol. Also about the movement, I agree with the second part. However, certain small tweaks in the movement like the momentum of a slide or the animation for climbing and the overall feeling you get when you loose your momentum is completely different between the 2 games in which I find the 1st significantly better at accomplishing. One last thing that I wish you kinda touched on was the combat and how even though it wasn't "good" in the first game. They never upgraded an inch of the ai (at least from what i can tell) or even bothered to tweak combat to feel smooth at all. Anyway, as I said. Great video, keep up the good work.
Thanks for the comment man, on the movement I agree I recently replayed the first one again and it's a lot more notable now that they are both fresh in my mind. And I don't know why but I completely forgot to talk about the combat. The thing that I feel makes it a lot worse than the first one is that you are forced into combat a lot more in catalyst where in one I feel combat is more avoidable, which I liked a lot more. And the ai wasn't up to scratch. As you said it does seem like a copy paste of the first games. Making it very dated
