This is the thing that kills me most, especially when it comes to video game remakes. I don't want to go back and replay a good game from my childhood with slightly better graphics. I want to go back to a game that I loved, which had a ton of flaws and weird issues, and see it get the final release it deserves. So far the closest we've come to that has been Dragon's Dogma 2, but I'd kill for something like an Arcanum remake, or the original Vampire: The Masquerade game, or Timesplitters.
I think the issue is that suits see art as a product to sell and get rid of, whereas creatives see a process that could use 2-3 more iterations. In our minds, it makes more sense to go back, give it a few more iterations, but suits just call it a profit failure and move on.
