I was downvoted for pointing this out.
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:
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.
Yo ho, me hearties. You own it already. "Update" your copy to its current iteration for free. 🤌🏼
I can understand they want some more money but since I already own the game, it is a graphic improving DLC. Should be £10-£15 max.
Meh. It's a remaster. Mostly automated, anyhow. Charging for that barely-half-assed re-re-re-release isn't just greedy AF, it's a slap in our peasant faces with global cost-of-living in the fuckin' stratosphere. You owe it to yourself to spend your finite cash more wisely. These fucks don't need it, and none of the original devs get a cent of it now, anyhow.
But the update is so much more work than a horse armor dlc which is a lot of money for no content.
