Question: is the "Life is Strange Remastered" collection better than the original release? Or did they find a way to ruin it?

Reddit people really do not like the remasters at all, it would seem! :-D

@Blerkotron@mastodon.social I'd say the different in tech base was apparent a decade ago. https://blog.shivoa.net/2017/08/engine-change-life-is-strange.html And the Remastered stuff was primarily to port everything to a unified base for future re-releases (new consoles) rather than to really improve anything. Along with Square's constant attempts to turn LiS from a budget-friendly small episodic series into something they want $70 for (or $40 for a simple re-release "Remastered" pack for old games). Without spending much more money on the actual dev.
