    Mercifully, the base game’s faring far better.

    On Steam it is. Though ironically, given the source of this article, PC Gamer has not given it such a stellar review. While heaps of other review sites are giving it 90/100 and its Metacritic score is 84, PC Gamer gives it just 75, which in the inflated world of online game reviews is basically a failing grade, and is a significant outlier compared to overall review sites and fan reception.

    I’ve seen others allege that it’s part of a general trend at PC Gamer having a grudge against remasters and not scoring them entirely on their merits.
