Old sprites in games like this were figurative representations of the game world. The characters and world did not literally look like that. They were figurative representations based on the original concept art. The concept art is what the game world and characters were actually supposed to look like. People who don't understand this lack the ability to visualize things in their mind, likely lack internal monologues/souls as well, and are, in all likelihood, inferior human beings, if you can call them that. Remakes like this can only please such "people".
