Hi, just some of my thoughts on the news:
Yharnam is a bit mixed for me too: the original version is pretty, but in a "plain" way. The new one looks a bit more like a model than an adventurer to me. Maybe it's just the makeup, i'm not sure. I'll probably need to see her in her outfit or in action to be able to say more. She looks good, but in a very different way than the original.
I also see that you went back to pick bigger nipples again. I was wondering when you would do that, because that was a very noticeable feature of the original design.
Morgana is just an upgrade for me. The stronger color contrast makes her eye color and freckles a lot more visible which is a nice detail that got lost in some scenes because of the lighting.
Overall, i still praise this version for it's simple, to the point nature. Yeah, the choices weren't exactly complicated, but what mattered to me is that they weren't ignored: there was always a slight change in the later dialogue to reference the choices, so they were simple, but meaningful.
It seems like you are well into the planning of the remake, and fortunately it sounds like you are doing it because you want to change things based on what you have learned after developing the current version, which is ok. Just please don't go into the remake with the idea that the original is somehow not good enough or bad, because this version is great as it is.
