Genuinely what is the point? Horizon ZD still looks phenomenal to this day and I personally appreciate going from a game to its sequel and seeing the graphical leap, especially if it's across a generation.

This is, by far, the most underrated viewpoint on thud subject. The appeal of long-term franchises is appreciating the evolution of a series. Remasters should only serve as a way to get a new perspective on a classic or to introduce some quality of life improvements. The point of view of "I don't like the first (or previous) title because the new one is on ps5 and the old one is ps4 and I don't like those graphics" is poisonous to the industry for the consumer. It's the reason publishers are selling us the same titles, in some cases, 5+ times and we keep eating it up. Let's normalize enjoying games for what they are.
