I'm glad they weren't crunched for it, but I do still think the idea of a $70 full-on remake of The Last of Us (When we already had Remastered on the PS4, and the original ain't even that old to begin with) is still kinda dumb.
The concept of a remaster is, to begin with, just a lazy way of squeezing money out of the same thing. I play games released in the 90s, sometimes straight off the disk on my modern windows 10 machine and sometimes with some minimal patches to make it more compatible. A good, finished game does not need more work to be done to it, and the ones which could benefit from more work are not fixed by a remaster.

It would be one thing if the graphics were horribly outdated, but that was one of the best looking games of its time when it came out.
its so there is something new on shelves for people whose introduction to TLOU is the TV show.
