It looks better, sure, but marginally better, which is to say something as HL2 was released in 2004. I replayed it last year (the "update") and it still holds up so well: models and textures are old, sure, but animations, face animations in particular, barely show their age.

Anyway, this remake is apparently made by the same team that created the Portal: Prelude RTX mod, which (according to the Steam reviews) runs terribly. I wish I was more excited, but I can't say I am.
