Companies are exploiting the consumers more than ever before. TLOU still looks good today however ND see the opportunity that they can improve upon it to resell it again. Because they know that they will have the zombie crowds swarm out to get it. Just like every time Apple release a new product that isn't that much different than the last product they made, yet people come out in droves. Because of the consumers not having control, its now giving companies more reason to exploit your wallets while trying to offer you less cake while they try added more icing to cover themselves for the extra expense.

Again

Graphics being outdated is not the reason for TLOU getting a new release. The series will get a TV show, they want to exploit the hype and farm more sales from people who purchased PS3 and PS4 versions. The PS4 remaster still looks better than many PS4-gen games; I doubt anybody truly believes this game aged badly. 

The reason why games get rerererereleased is hardly graphics, I mean... Square are releasing HD-pixel art games remasters, so graphics being outdated aren't the reason for those games to be released again, they are going to be released again because they sell more easily. Humans are very lazy creatures, they hate new things, choosing instead conformity and repetition. It's "safer" to bet on something familiar than on something new. 

Do you know what is amusing? People who complain about the current state of industry NEVER want the industry to develop further (in a positive way)

Instead, they want it to come back to how it used to be in the 90s. Do you still wonder why remasters are made?
