- Hardware Profile: No data
Feature extractions:
- Community Price:
  - Community fair range: $19.99 - $24.99
  - Reasoning: The reviews repeatedly describe the remaster's base price as fair or amazing for the content and say it is worth buying, especially for new or returning players. The mentioned 20% new-player discount and 50% original-owner discount suggest a fair entry range around $20 to the current $25 base price. The main negative point is that the upgrade may not be worth it for players who recently bought the original, which limits the upper end but does not push the fair base-game price much below the current price.
- Playtime Metrics:
  - Game completion: N/A
  - Story completion: N/A
  - Session length: 0.7h

Another quote states the remaster includes 40 minutes of playable deleted scenes, supporting an endgame or extra-content estimate of about 0.67 hours.
