No, that is exactly what a remake is. They are remaking the game into something they deem it should be. Maybe something they couldn't realize when they made the original.

Lol so much this! 

Well, no, actually, unless it has the qualifier he added.  Otherwise, a simple "remake" would mean to do the same thing over.  "Re-" means, basically, "again".  If they're changing key elements that made up the identity of the original then they're creating something new using the original as a base.  Of course, how far something goes before it can still be called a "remake" will always be up for debate, but it's perfectly within reason for someone to question the term being used if the new version makes meaningful changes.
