I have had a fierce disdain for HD reissues of classic games ever since I discovered that “Serious Sam HD” used a different physics engine that did not implement the original’s use of arbitrary gravity. So you had meticulously recreated levels that did not work as intended because you could no longer walk on the ceiling. I quit the game in disgust, uninstalled it, and went back to playing the original.
I play my games as they were originally made and don’t fret that an old game isn’t in HD or 3D or 4K or VR or whatever the current hot new thing is. If that means that its either a tiny 640x480 window in the center of my screen, or giant pixellated low res artwork filling my 20" monitor, so be it.
