I really wish “HD Remake/Remaster” on games meant “we’re updating the graphics due to better technological abilities but keeping the original style/soul of the game” rather than “Everything is now smooth and plastic-looking, and somehow the characters emote and move less than when the hardware literally couldn’t do any better”
Examples I can think of off the top of my head:
- Ocarina of Time 3D
- Majora’s Mask 3D
- Wind Waker HD (this is not solely a Zelda problem I swear)
- Klonoa Wii
- Klonoa: Phantasy Reverie Series (remade twice and gotten worse and more wooden each time)
Like I get that a lot of the charm of older graphical styles is born form working around graphical limitations of the time (something something flaws of a medium etc) but like those things were in fact charming so why not polish what couldn’t be instead of sanding everything down to the point of not resembling itself anymore?
I don’t want *graphics* I want STYLE

Why do theses direct have to be so good recently ? It's too good !
Like, PAPER MARIO TTYD REMAKE !! Guys it's happening ! The gasp I made when I saw it, jus the first two notes of the beginning theme, loved that game ! And now, it's beautiful in HD, I looove it.
This, and we got Mario RPG's remake that looking pretty nice, the Mario vs Donkey Kong, the final booster pass that added more character than that what I expected, the Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, and finally that Princess Peach game !! I mean, it does look pretty easy and accessible to everyone, but that aside, what a charming game this look.
In short, I'm really hyped and happy.
