I will love to replay Dark Souls 1 again, best in the series. Hopefully From Software delivers on the 4K assets' quality, then it will be the perfect game.
What you can fear the most are new glitches and a bad translation of the art direction with lighting and textures.
It's often minimal and trivial to the newcomers but when you know these games like the back of your hand even the most tiny differences become highly distracting. I still prefer the PS3 ports of Bioshock 1,2,3 over these "remasters" as poor as they can be considered...
I didn't like Dark Souls 2 and haven't tried 3 but Demon's Souls And DS1 Felt special to me. i still have the feels when i hear Their character creation musics. I used to loop them for hours.
But i'm sure FROM didn't forget the DS2 60 fps weapon durability uproar.
