Pros
+Raytracing implementation is great

Cons
-Performance sucks (i have an RTX 3070 overclocked to almost 3070ti lvl Performance but i had to turn down the settings so hard and use dlss ultra performance to get more than 60 fps consistently)
-No visual upgrades besides Raytracing (i thought we would get upscaled textures as this was in the advertisment material for RTX Remix)
-Had multiple crashes and game didnt want to start at all sometimes
-heavy graphical glitches and artifacts in the menu
-because of the heavy use of DLSS Necessary (unless you have the most high end Rig) the game looks blurry af so it lowkey looks worse than the original.
-I wanted to Stream it and it made my whole PC crash and somehow broke my OBS

in Summary
If you really enjoy Raytracing and already own the Original, try to play it, its not a long game.
Dont expect to much tho, besides shiny surfaces and Glass its not really that exciting as most surfaces are rather matte and light sources that benefit from it are rare. There are some "wow this tech is lowkey cool" moments but besides that id consider it a downgrade as the Performance hit is just so bad. its lowkey gimmiky and if you are genuinely just interested in Portal gameplay then you should play the Original. It performs wayyyyyy better and because of the lack of Upscaling it looks sharper :)
