The problem? The original was a mess. Tank controls on a game that required stealth. A "Slice" mechanic (cutting through dimensional fabric) that crashed the game 40% of the time. And a love interest (BL, or "Blue Lacie") whose dialogue was so poorly coded that she often gave hints for the wrong puzzle.
Thompson is not better because he is stronger. He is better (the BL Better of the keyword) because he is more human . The remake strips away the machismo. In v03, if you fire a gun while Ark is exhausted, your aim drifts. If you don't eat for two in-game hours, he starts seeing friendly ghosts that give wrong advice. Let's address the final part of the keyword: "bl better." The fan forums are split. Some argue that "BL Better" stands for "Build List Better," referring to the patching notes. Others believe it's a derogatory term about the original voice actor for Blue Lacie (B.L.) being replaced by a vastly superior AI performance. slice of venture remake v03 ark thompson bl better
