What could "modernity" (by which, I assume, you mean modern 3D graphics) give to Descent that would make it a better game?

Many people are under the impression that Descent is no longer playable. I was under that impression until a year ago -- it had quit working when I switched to Windows XP.

Thankfully, due to the hard work of several people, Descent runs beautifully on modern hardware.
