Maybe treating these console generations as though they're somehow super different is more trouble than it's worth. Meanwhile, PC games I bought 20 years ago can easily be run on new hardware at higher frame rates and resolutions than when I bought them.
And those games don’t look like modern games even if like look relatively better than when released. This doesn’t have anything to do with console vs pc. The capabilities of each generation are different even if not in a super way.
Pretty much any time you see "remastered", the net effect is that you're just running an old game at better resolutions and frame rates, including The Last of Us Part II. Sony decided they'd rather charge you for the same game multiple times rather than just having a process in place to run their PS4 games better on PS5, like Xbox does in many cases.
