I have no issues with them remastering old games for newer platforms. I have a problem with remaking old games instead of making new games.

Such a thin line, but that's exactly what I'm saying. That on top of stop charging full new game price for something that I played 10+ years ago that's only a remaster.

Yeah, I'd much prefer they make it a DLC or something for the existing game instead of a new entry entirely. I'd ideally be able to toggle between old and new in the same game.
