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

    Interesting choice since I understand the MGS fanbase kinda detests the changes the Twin Snakes made, and from what I've seen I'm not too hot on it either. Then there's the 1:1 remakes with a modern artstyle like the Crash Bandicoot remakes or the Halo 1 and 2 Anniversary approach of overlaying a toggleable new graphics engine over an old game.

      I've always appreciated it because it's not exactly trying to be a perfect remake. It's honest about its intentions, and doesn't like ruin the original or disrespect it.
