It's a no brainer, it's a remaster so no new designing, no new story or landscape, just polishing what was expertly crafted many years ago. The problem with the high-end gaming industry is that the publishers and corporate devs take more and more liberties for their benefit, harming others in the process such as:

  • Constant patch updates after an unfinished release instead of releasing a game in its entirety;
  • Crunch culture on employees to get a publisher deadline that probably really doesn't matter more than the mental and physical wellbeing of the team;
  • Selling licenses to access mandatory online features of games, without which the game is rendered broken instead of perfectly playable, for example a leaderboard that just stops working and doesn't affect gameplay in any way.

It seems they're now trying to pass old refreshed games off at full price to capitalmaxx off a new generation, as well as nostalgic returnees.
