    AAA companies aren’t making these remasters, they are typically handled by small studios that specialize in exactly this kind of work.

    Most of the work of re-releasing these old games is porting the old code to new platforms. Making them run at higher resolutions and frame rates is usually not all that much effort in comparison, so you might as well do it.

    Frankly it’s kind of weird to complain about the existence of a product nobody is forcing you to buy.

      Exactly, this game I believe is being done by Aspyr. While KOTOR was a remake obviously, it was the last time they tried to do a big game and it apparently was a disaster.

        Makes sense, some of their port jobs on switch I would consider as disasters. If they really remade KOTOR and completely boned it I’d hate them even more than I already do. That sounds a little harsh, some of their ports are passable.
