One trend I find problematic is the "remaster" that is actually a remake in disguise. Remasters are supposed to be a way of preserving and improving the original art. For movies and music, this generally works. But many video game "remasters" can't help but re-create the art and often this is destructive to the original's intended look and feel.

For a pretty blatant example, let's look at Ninja Gaiden II Black, which is in actuality a remake in Unreal Engine 5.
