thebirdnerd finished Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection
How is it possible to fumble the bag this hard? How did we get here? At a certain point it takes active effort to release something as bad and lazy as this. I am almost convinced that it isn’t even laziness but an act of self-sabotage; like how they could have left some of the DLC characters re-using other character’s animations but instead went and stole the work of a modder’s custom animations.

These games were finished and pretty polished, and certainly didn’t take up anywhere near the file sizes as they do now. Even knowing the textures were upscaled to 4K, how does that end up with 60~ GBs of data? Even on Nintendo Switch, this thing takes up 34 GBs of data— more than Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch. I have not heard of a new engine being utilized so I may be wrong but how did all these new bugs get here?

This release has left me with more and more questions, and this is quite possibly the worst fumble with any re-release/remaster I can think of in recent memory. Absolutely embarrassing on Aspyr’s part.
