tbh the left one feels a lot more atmospheric. The fire is having a more pronounced effect on the environment that makes it seem more tangible and powerful.
Honestly? I can tell they're different but I can't tell which one is supposed to look better. Can we all agree game graphics are officially good enough not to need a new graphics card eating up as much power as an air fryer and setting your home on fire the second its industrial chiller fails?
I have to admit I really thought the first one was the remaster, it looks better. It could just be the lighting but there's more smoke, more fire, the yellow sunlight looks awesome. I dunno, I think this was a bad example.
Imma be real with you bestie, the only thing that looks better in the remaster is the water. The actual sign particle effects look like Skyrim in 2011.
