Games people love usually have a large portion of spontaneity behind their success. This is hard to faithfully capture even if that's your intention, and remasters are usually done on a tiny budget for profit by people who often aren't even familiar with the OG game, which doesn't really help.

There are exceptions though, and also there are some remasters that are not faithful but are good on their own.
