I really enjoyed those games back when they came out, and I don't mind the idea of a remaster in general.... but I really don't want to see certain scenes from those games in HD with remastered models/lighting. Some of them were absolutely brutal, but they were tolerable due to the "gamey" graphics.
You’re bothered by the brutality in a game called God of War?
I'm not bothered by it, in general, especially when the graphics of the older games are low-rez and "cartoony" by today's standards. But, much like how I don't like rewatching Oberyn vs The Mountain in Game of Thrones, I don't relish the thought of watching Kratos do similar things in high def. It all depends on the kind of remaster that may happen. If it's just a resolution bump and some better lighting I'll be fine.
I'm with you. The fidelity of current Mortal Kombat games is not my cup of tea either.
