Yeah, shame the weather in PS1 was poorly done and such a bad hit on performance. Nothing beat fighting on Hossin in a storm.

As for the NPC's, I just don't see it fitting in an FPS game such as PS as it wouldn't benefit the immersion at all, especially if it's in the middle of nowhere.

The way Highby talks about getting into the fights quicker, leads me to believe it would be pointless and the immersion should be focused on the fights itself.
