Finally, someone that gets it ^^

Well it isn't that hard of a concept. Remaster is taking a game and upgrading the visuals. A remake is rebuilding an existing game from the ground up. RE2 remake shares very little with the original, other than story and basic design.  It clearly was redeveloped with all new graphics, sound and voice acting.  Even some gameplay elements were changed .  

Yeah, exactly.

I think people feel that a remaster has a negative connotation, and thus they don't like to use it with games they like. Remake  is perceived as something better, and this people tend to use it for games that don't deserve it to feel better about them.

It's very silly, but it happens a lot. And it's silly because being a remaster or a remake doesn't make a game better or worse. Just different...

I love remasters. I'm disappointed galaxy and Pikmin haven't been remastered.

Completely new graphic engine, new character models, new textures, not just higher resolution like remaster

So FFVIIR have turn base mode, then it is remaster too?

Completely new graphic engine, new character models, new textures, not just higher resolution like remaster

Final Fantasy VII Remake is made from scratch. With Xenoblade, you can take a moment from the game and put it side by side with the same moment of the Definitive Edition, and it matches perfectly. It has better graphics, but the way the game works (not in a gameplay sense, but in a pure technical level: how characters move, the geometry of the world, etc...) is exactly the same in both versions.

In FF VII Remake YOU CAN'T DO THAT. Because it's a new game. You can't match a scene that behaves exactly like the original BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFERENT GAMES. THAT'S WHAT A REMAKE IS ABOUT. MAKING A GAME AGAIN. RESULTING IN A NEW ONE. XENOBLADE DOESN'T DO THAT. AT. ALL.

No idea what trailer others have watched, but the one I watched absolutely does not have all new graphics for the environment.

Some of you have your definitions crossed as remaster means improving visual and audio quality for most part, a remake goes deeper than that with assets being redone and such and not everything has to be redone as a remake is taking anything currently existing and modernizing it. REmake2 and LA are remakes yes but they're not the only standard of remakes as a remake doesn't have to be made from scratch, XBC is a REmake so far from what is seen as a lot more than improving the visual and audio quality is being done to it such as new character models, redone textures, new lighting, cut content being added in etc... That is simply not a remaster as some of you are trying to put it as even the geometry in some environments has been changed and it becomes more apparent in the comparison videos.

Here we can see the environmental changes as graphically it differs significantly a bit.

The video screams remaster to me. Reminds me of TLoU on the ps4, same as the original, just prettier. Not a remake at all, at least in my book. Too each their own.

You may want to revisit TLOU.

This is not even comparable to the XBC situation sorry.
