I played this Remake right after playing the original game, which I found very interesting and atmospheric. This Remake has not the unique feeling to it, but makes it up in terms of emotions. The characters feel much more lively (especially the main protagonist) and some story bits were added to clarify things that were left open for guessing in the original game. The epilogue was a precious addition where I realized how much these characters grew on me.
I don't know if I would've been so invested had I only played the Remake, but I'm still inclined to rate it as a very cool Visual Novel for itself.
Also, I had no translating issues whatsoever, and everything worked well on Steamdeck.
