Sony appears to be refunding customers who own the PlayStation 4 digital version of The Last of Us 2 and who bought the PlayStation 5 remaster at full price.

Maybe treating these console generations as though they're somehow super different is more trouble than it's worth. Meanwhile, PC games I bought 20 years ago can easily be run on new hardware at higher frame rates and resolutions than when I bought them.

When your console is highly compatible between generations, such as x86/amd64 ... maybe should just sale 'the game' and give users access to the older console version, and the version with any enhanced features only accessible on the newer console.
