The game's absolutely great, that's out of the question, but this remaster is hit or miss. I agree the game didn't get the remaster/remake it deserved like the other games did. They should have waited a generation more and brought something that was a real step up.

The remaster has it's moments, it looks good when some more spectacular lighting's involved, like you showed or like in a cave when having the lantern out. The sections with more elaborate texturework or more inspired designs to them als look good like Snowpeak. A lot of other places look aged now though, rocky areas really needed some more depth. The forests and fields really needed some better shading. The remaster's performance is also worse than the original for some reason. There's slowdown in plenty of areas where there was none in the original. Besides the Ghost Lantern they didn't add or improve anything to the gameplay of the base game, which is also too bad.

All in all I'd say it's "okay", but a missed opportunity for sure.
