    How about Rollercoaster Tycoon and the open source remake, OpenRCT?

    The open source version is more portable, more stable, more performant, and provides a great many more features and extensions compared to the original game. It is the way to play it today.

    Not technically a remaster, but mods for Minecraft that drastically affect performance but not gameplay have been a thing for quite a while

    It’s blizzard, but the diablo 2 remaster runs so much better than the original which was resolution locked to 800x600 and 15fps, they could have kept the same graphics and that would have been enough of an upgrade

    Remasters are often cheap upscaling, so idk. Usually if they put enough work into a game, they call it a full remake. If you’re using the same hardware for a game from the 00s that was remastered a couple years ago, you’re going to need different hardware. A remaster is usually done to exploit new hardware capabilities.

    That being said, maybe Shadow of the Colossus or Okami

    Not exactly a fair answer but Red Dead Redemption 1 remastered runs a lot better (60fps) on PS5 than playing the PS3 version via PSN streaming
