Yup looks exactly the same. This is $5, right?
(but seriously the hate that this remaster is getting, is absolutely ridiculous)

To be the devil's advocate, it's probably because the game is barely a year old, and most people want remasters of old classics that sorely need to be updated, not a year-old game that was gorgeous enough when it came out.
That being said, I'm probably gonna get in, because I never finished the original.

We've been getting 1 year old ports and game of the year editions for 10+ years. The only reason this is suddenly an issue is because it's a critically acclaimed 1st party game releasing on the console currently winning the sales race.
In essence it's just a really great GOTY edition that provides more than just the DLC.
I can understand people having no personal interest in them, but things have really gotten out of hand.

GOTY are the same thing as the normal game with DLC included. Remasters are improved versions. A lot of people bought the base game, along with the DLC, and are now (understandably) upset that a better version came out just a year later for full price.
And saying that people are only upset about it because it's on the PS4 isn't quite true. A lot of people are against one year old remasters, since their original purchase has little meaning when an improved version comes out just a year later. It's not a PS4 issue. It's just the fact that it's been happening so often now with Tomb Raider, TLOU, GTA, etc, and it brings the situation into the spotlight.
And of course people are going to make a big deal about it if they don't like it, what do you expect? A lot of people were hoping for a remaster of an older game from last gen that probably needs a visual refresh much more than the most gorgeous game of last gen.
