I totally agree with your sentiments on both adding the games you listed onto the origin client as well as stop making remasters as they really do spoil the original, and, why should I pay for a game I've already paid for, just because the graphic my have been upgraded. To be honest, I like my Battlefield 1942, Battlefield Vietnam, Battlefield 2 and 2042 as well as the Harry Potter games as they are, but would dearly love to see all of them on Origin. I do have Battlefield 1942, which was a giveaway some years ago, but it does not include the two expansions The Road to Rome and Secret Weapons of WWII. I still have the original disks, but can only play the base game that was given away on Origin. I've tried everything I can think of to play the expansions by installing the original disk as well as the expansions, but cannot get the original to work, same with Battlefield 2. I have two original disks, one from the month it was released and a special edition that was released after the Special Forces expansion was released. I've even copied over thge two expansions to the Origin installation and can see the two expansions but cannot play them.
Seriously, these games as Johnny1xx1 said, were what made EA games and it's disgusting that they are left out in the cold by EA games. Battlefield 2 for example is still well supported by the modding community and mods such as Project Reality and Point of Extinction are still well supported by the community. And new mods for Battlefield 2 such as Battlefield 1943, which was finally released Sept 2020 (and is amazing) and the latest mod by Anthony called Battlefield 1944 which is still in the beta testing phase as well as other mods that improve on the graphic and maps that are almost phot realistic. There's still a lot of support for those old games out there. Another question you probably wont like, Why was Battlefield 2 removed from Steam as I know loads of Steam friends who really want the game.
