I’m of a similar mind, but at least no remake, good or bad, will remove the original. Thanks to the hard work of decompilation teams, anyone can play a truly definitive version of the original OoT at any time. It’s both preserved and perfected, available as it was but with support for the controllers, PC setups, and refresh rates that we are used to today.

That’s why I’m okay with the remake even if it is a strong departure from the original game. I’m more interested in a reimagining type of remake rather than one that just tries to do exactly what the original did with better graphics.
