We need to compromise as a player base

It is completely untrue that in-order to improve graphics, characters have to look unrecognisable.

This isn't an issue with lighting. Sure, it may have to be re-baked, but characters look completely different because in many cases their facial structure and features have been changed.

There have been so many video game remasters in the past where the graphics have been vastly improved, but characters have still looked like themselves, just an improved version of themselves. You can't tell me that for some reason that isn't possible in this case.

Hehe HD remasters. Prime example of devs changing more then they reveal.
