This seems to be a semi-common occurrence with HD facelifts. The characters get more detailed but lose the ability to emote.

This is the new Fatal Frame remaster. Wii above, PS/Xbox/Switch/PC below

    I guess at that point you might as well remake the whole game from scratch instead of upscaling some textures, replacing character models and adding ReShade.

    I wonder if it isn't an aesthetic choice. The game after this went for a more anime doll look and it could be that's just the series' style now
