I mean, I like the idea; re-release the game with all patches included on a physical disk, but the messaging is *horrible*. Imagine what a digital purchaser or a previous owner is going to think when they read "includes patches"; since people tend to read what they want to be true, they're going to think the game will be a newer, better version than they one they already have, even if they themselves have the latest patch.
Whole thing has been a clusterfuss, I don't even any of the parties involved, nor do I blame TFP for the kerfuffle, but damn I hope they learned some lessons from it. 😃
