The first game isn't super beautiful even though it's my favorite TR game. The texture work and level layout gets pretty minimalist and almost like an abstract doom level. I think the next games do a better job with the graphics even though I kind of hate the games.
Still, the remastered game seems like an alright port, but I still think these games just need to be played on a CRT. Getting every pixel being precisely visible just removes the mystique of trying to interpret the visuals, it sort of makes the game more mysterious
