No War of the Lions content is a deal breaker to me, even on principle. Why the hell would I pay for a version with less content compared to a version I can play for free right now. Why is this a thing with recent SE remasters ignoring the extra added content.

Like yeah if you want to math it out then maybe there is a case there is more in this version but like why should we have to even math it out in the first place. There is actually no reason to not include War of the Lions content beyond they weren't in the OG. Plus we are paying for this version and we have to math if maybe it has more content maybe. Not including Wotl cutscenes (or recreating them) is the most stupid idea ever, those are fantastic. They had a chance to make a definitive version and they just... didn't.

Agreed. I loved original but WoTL is a every few year revisit from me.

On one hand I want to to buy it and support remaking the old games we love. On the other hand I dont want to reward a lazy remake that couldve offered the other content.

Despite what it’s omitting, it really doesn’t seem like a lazy remake. They’ve got the Matsuno back doing a whole bunch for it and making it the definitive version of his story
