That's not a remake, that's a remaster.

A remaster is adding high res textures and upscaling the resolution and such.

A remake is entirely rebuilding the game from the ground up, from scratch. FF7 remake was rebuilt from scratch. Dead space was rebuilt from scratch. Skyrim was remastered.

You aren't understanding the difference between the two. It's a big difference.

I've pre-ordered many times and very rarely am I charged in full before the game launches.

I pre-ordered pokemon Sword & Shield from Best Buy a few years back and was not charged until I picked up the game. Same thing when I pre-ordered Scarlet and Violet. Didn't charge until the order shipped.

Also source: me. An accountant. Sure you can see units pre-ordered but the company cannot report prepaids as revenue until the order is fulfilled.

I'm about to replay it, so I can also replay forbidden west right after and follow up with the DLC in April
