Remakes: Yes Remasters: No

I don't like when they remake a game I loved but they add a bunch to it like new gameplay mechanics, or make changes to stories or characters. That being said not all remakes are bad, probably most are just fine, but really not my cup of tea.

I greatly prefer a straight remaster. Just update the graphics, remaster the sound, maybe add a little more details to the game world, and I'm a happy dude.

And fix annoying game behaviors like game logic being tied to FPS and zoom being tied to resolution.

what about Mafia Definitive Edition? I'd say that is probably the one good example of a remake.
