I don't give a shit about having a remake but it's not always about just mind blowing graphics. It can be about accessibility, quality of life changes, adjustments and new content.

The diablo 2 remake is cool because it was getting more and more difficult to run the original on new hardware. They even added new rune words and sets I think, which is nice.

Yeah really the biggest selling point of a remaster wouldn't be graphics, but "it's one click to run on your machine, no patches, no fixes, no widescreen bugs".

Mass Effect legendary was less of a remaster for me and more of a "you don't need to do 4 hours of mods before each game anymore" buy.
