Indies I think helped younger gamers and old gamers become less impressed by graphics compared to the past. Gamers expect more and there's many indies and old games people haven't played.

There is also just tiny graphic improvements now, so for most people, 5 years old games look similar to what we have now

I'm still being impressed by 2017 games

I was playing the original not too long ago, and they freaking "updated" it with ai upscaling. It looks like absolute trash. I couldn't figure out how to get rid of it.
Why would you do that and also remaster it?
