yes it does matter. These are businesses. They make money by selling things. You cannot compare one rereleasing the same game with minimal changes for new money to keep supporting an existing game without charging new money.

It doesn't to me. They can re-release the game with an updated engine or just add more content via DLCs and expansions, I'll take either.
