The Metroid Prime Remastered approach vs the Resident Evil 4 Remake approach

In the case of games I love, I'm mixed on full reimaginings as there's the risk that the changes won't always be for the better. It's a much riskier proposition that can easily go wrong.
RE4 is my favourite game of all time so I will definitely play the remake, but I'm not sure how I'll feel about so much being changed as the original is for me an almost perfect game. I feel like I may be too attached to the 2005 version to appreciate the 2023 one.
On the other hand, back in the 7th gen, I did really like the Goldeneye 007 remake, since in my opinion the original didn't age well, and the same for the 2012 Wiimake of Fatal Frame 2.

Having just finished Prime Remastered, I appreciated its authenticity and how faithful it was to the amazing original. Though the addition of a modern save system wouldn't have gone amiss, on the whole I'm glad they didn't mess with the core experience, as I feel like it could easily have been ruined if they modernized it too much.

I doubt you’ll enjoy it as much obviously but RE4R is fantastic and I would just go into it knowing they’re going for a different vibe even if its not the same
