You do something simple you ask.

The confusing part is not what I've said it's people using XV because when you say older version it's means nothing when that version has the same content you're arguing in comparison to the version reviewed at launch while we're looking at the version when RE released when you're comparing them. Reading your other reply is what actually helped me understand what you're trying to argue.

If I think it seems likely you mean one thing, I'd rather address it right away than ask.
If I'm right then we saved time. If I'm wrong, no problem. Just tell me what you actually meant.
But if you don't, and instead focus on bashing the poster for it, then there's a problem.

Regarding your second paragraph here, it still does not tell me why you think this 'means nothing' when reviewing the game, considering identical ports with nothing but identical content to the previous version receiving the same high scores.

Though I understand and agree with the point you made about the time passing since the release of the original working as a negative against it.

In regards to identical ports it can depend on a number of things like the outlets reviewing for example the X1 version would have more Xbox specific outlets reviewing while no PS and PC specific outlets will be reviewing as well as the number of reviews which likely could be less than the other versions if the are no repeat reviews from multi-platform outlets, if an identical version was ported to PS5 I could see it scoring lower (although not by muc) due to outlets doing repeat reviews and the identical content being more noted by them. N:A is also one of the best games of the gen as well it's part of the line up that has helped shaped the new modern standard which thus far hasn't shifted much so high scores for another version during this time wouldn't be too surprising, another factor is N:A is also a unique game the aren't really any games out there like it so even with shifting standards it still would retain a certain appeal when compared to other games.
