      It’s not always like this tho. There are exceptions and some very well done remastered editions.

      The one that surprised me the most was Command & conquer. The amount of love they put in that remastered was such that made me buy an EA game (that one) for the first time since command & conquer tiberium wars.

        Under MS and Bethesda IP ownership, we also had Quake remasters by Nightdive Studios and MachineGames, with stellar performance, rich additional content and crossplay. It’s not an undertaking comparable to openworld RPGs I suppose, in it’s assets alone, but that’s on management that should’ve given an according amount of time and resources to do it justice, and to observe what Bethesda does at each stage of production.
