Love me the original games, just nice to have a stable way to play them. Added bonus both games works well on Linux via Proton. Available on both Origin, and Steam.

I have the opportunity to repurchase a game I am literally holding right now but can't play? Hooray.

Of course. It's EA we're talking about.

These are the same assholes that when they bought Bioware, they shut down bioware's own official website where you were encouraged to store your game keys (for NWN, Jade Empire, SOTOR, etc) without informing any of its users that it was closing, and that your keys were going to be deleted, and then when you complained about it they just told you to buy the games again.
