But also these new games have way more content than the original so...
Also it's not a "remake" in the traditional sense, the first game in this series was just called that.
Yes, I know, I was just being snarky without spoilers. The whole "remake but not" thing is kind of a big deal meta plot point the fanbase is still arguing about.
Also, we both know that SqEnix is going to release an ultimate bundle of the games when the final part releases. They're already giving digital copies of Remake+Integrade to people for free if they pre-ordered Rebirth, which was kind of a bitter pill for the fans who paid for Remake at PS5 game prices.
I feel like with all of the subscription services we have now, I think we need to start seeing paying full price is more of a "fast pass" ticket to play the game first. Games seem to always becoming cheap or outright free nowadays. That is unless it's from Nintendo.
I've sort of come to terms with this. I've paid full price for games like final fantasies and kingdom hearts' . And they've all became free on PS+ but I've already finished them and I've got other games to play now anyway so I'm not bothered.
