That's not an opinion but a fact: we are talking about remasters, not remake, the only purpose of a remaster in any art is to be faithful to the original. If many videogamers are confused about this is due to "the industry".
But now I'm talking about semantics here and that's not what I want to do; the important aspect is to point out how this type of videogames are useless: just look for new ones...or go for a mod if you like it partially...or enjoy this new versions but don't be surprised when they are shadowed by the original games.
I'll reply to you because seems you really care about it, and also because many players have your same position: No, a game doesn't looks bad just because it's old, like all the masterpieces ( and I'm not referring to Deus Ex in particular). Many players wrongly think everything needs to be updated to modern aesthetics, but you do not want to touch a great game just for that, that's a commercial reason only. Real remastereds should just put a crt-shader on top of the game, in most cases.
I have both PS3 and PS4 and they are equally great devices: great and responsive UI, great titles. PS4 still have 90% of games playable offline without patches or accounts. PS5 looks very bad like latest gen console + XB1 (but at least XB1 have games, and backward compatibility.
Many people use to attach the card in the smartphone's back to mimic the built-in NFC, that's a good solution but sometimes you wanna check your credits and make some operations.
Nothing wrong here. Btw many artists already claim that streaming is like piracy.
