On one hand, the additions to this version mean it's what the original versions of these games SHOULD have been.

On the other, they do nothing to fix the issues the previous game had, meaning the story is even MORE slower paced, and the new additions are sparse enough to make this new version not feel entirely justified in existing.

If it had been a cross-generation thing, and launched on the Switch, I think it would've at least gotten a pass for that novelty - but alas.
