Firstly, I'm not sure that's true. DmC has an 86, and DMC4 has an 84. Unless a whole bunch of critics retroactively went back or did retro reviews to lower DMC4, it's hard to imagine it dropping three points over time.
Secondly, though, keep in mind that remasters are often judged by what they bring that's new to the game and how they fix the complaints people had about the original. DmC fixed a lot of the stuff that was wrong with the original DmC, and DMC4...didn't. Critics tend to review higher for that stuff.

Devil may cry 4 added new characters, dmc didnt add anything new gameplaywise and is 20€ more expnsinve . DMC didnt fix anything what was wrong with this game, emodante cant be fixed.

DmC DE fixed a lot of what was wrong, and this is coming from someone who thought vanilla DmC was utter trash. The style system is no longer broken, there's now a hard lock on feature (which is admittedly a bit wobbly until you alter the control scheme), the game now runs at 60 FPS, and the color coded enemies aren't completely invincible to all but one weapon.
I still don't think DmC is very good myself, but opinions are opinion. Chances are these are the reasons why it's scoring well on Metacritic. You can say these reasons aren't valid, but they're still the reviewers' reasons nonetheless.
