We have reached new levels of "remaster of game that already looks great and runs well"

Why are we getting remasters for games that already look great on PS5? There are plenty of games that could actually use the touch up, and don't run natively on current-gen at all.

It feels like Sony is sitting on a goddamn gold mine.

My guess: the "remaster" is sold as a new game with PSN linking requirement, and the old one is delisted.

Sony is looking for ways to artificially make number go up because they're reeling from the losses from Concord. Too scared to take any risks now.
