    I don’t want to complain about a free game that was previously retail and somewhat popular… but didn’t they just release 2 like last year? What’s the point of a remaster, why not just port any missing content to the new one?

      Agreed, feels quite a vain move (hope that’s the word, “vain”), and I wish it wasn’t like that.

      And I’d make a counter proposition, to release the remaster as a paid DLC for the original release. While I am mostly against DLCs since I first learned about them, in this case I would find it justifiable, to reward a polishing effort while keeping the original experience around.

      Also “all DLCs in one package”… Steam allows bundles, including “complete the set” ones so people can get just what they miss of them. No need to make an entirely new product for that reason either. 🫠
