Funny enough, some people haven't played the games yet and might be interested in playing a modernized version!
I guess what I mean here is that they can just update the old one maybe and not try to make money on old property...
I'm being curmudgeony possibly lol just IMO the old game still stands because of the hardware its built for, and the story it has. Not the graphics
The old ones are still riddled with bugs. Trying to update them would exasperate the problems
And building a new one from scratch would magically have no bugs at all!
Yeah, obviously they'd still have bugs; everything does, but the two original games are so broken they don't even launch without installing 20+ mods and it's clear playing either that a near full to full rewrite is the way to go. They could do that and also just replace the original but that would mean taking away peoples access to an existing mod ecosystem, so releasing it separately makes the most sense
And of course they could give existing owners a free copy of the new version but if they're redoing the whole game then its equivalent to a triple A game studio making and releasing a large game for free which would just remove any incentive to actually do the rewrite
I've played NV and would be absolutely interested in playing a modernised version. Same goes for FO3 which I played through most of but lost my save from corruption and rage quit
