Gotta get all that Concord money back somehow!

I feel like this is a good litmus test. If you have to double the price of the original, your remake/remaster is coming too early.

How about “if your game received a backwards compatibility patch that makes it look better for the current generation, your remaster is coming in too early”

I noticed the announcement trailer doesn’t even show any footage of the original, which makes it the only remaster trailer I think I’ve ever seen that doesn’t do a split screen or other comparison at some point.

And the first thing they mention is new Spatial Audio and haptic triggers. It’s like selling a new car and bragging about the cup holders first.

The triggers are why I’m paying to upgrade. They make a big difference to the feel of combat.

It was originally released in 2017. I thought it was newer than that and was surprised they’re already milking it.

But it’s still a relatively new game. And they’re already milking it. And doubly so it looks like.

A lot of the remasters seem really early. Maybe it’s because the graphics are still fine, maybe it’s the amount of years. Still. Did it need one? ~~~~

Yeah… that’s why getting the driveless PS5 is a bad idea.

I actually have it on my wishlist. One of those games I wanted to play eventually. Had it on my wishlist now. Certain actions by companies make me lose interest.

There’s enough good games out there. Can skip some based on company actions just fine.
