I am now imagining Microsoft making a new Zork game that is a graphical feast and not at all similar to the OG other than killing you outright if you spend too long in the dark.

I mean, arguably this was done years ago with Return to Zork, Zork: Nemesis, and Zork: Grand Inquisitor. They shared a bit of the humor of the originals, but they were still pretty different.

Grand Inquisitor is by far the best 3d Zork title, Nemesis felt too much like Myst and wasn’t nearly comedic enough for mec

Agreed.
