That’s where we think different. I’m a strong believer in game preservation as the preservation of the history of a piece of media - including preserving the flaws and limitations. I like remasters that are a snapshot of gaming history, with a little visual restoration and optimization to run well and look good in modern systems. There are many remasters like that (such as Stronghold Crusader HD) and I really like them. I know it’s not the only way to remaster a game, it’s just my personal preference.
By the way, I don’t think the inventory size in D2 is a limitation. It’s by design.
