>If everything else is equal, preferring the one with higher fidelity graphics is fine since the core gameplay would be the same.
can you name any remakes where this happened?
I legitimately can't think of any
and that's without opening the can of worms that is "remasters" which can be anything from an HD up-res to an actual remake being called a remaster
but even then a lot of the time those "HD" versions end up altering face textures due to the demand for "better graphics", and even if they aren't an objective downgrade, they're a needless stylistic change
