Remakes, Remasters, and the ethics of preservation (Gaming)
One could argue that 343 is currently working on their "remake" of Halo and we all see how well that's going.
As for what should be kept or omitted, I think it just has to do with the context in which it is used. IMO, Blazing Saddles is one of the funniest movies out there. But what makes it so funny, is the blatant racism. But...that's exactly the point of that movie. If those same jokes were made in 98% of movies...oof. You can't remake that movie to today's standards because it would be ruined.
But if it were a movie where there was a discretion made, that wasn't integral to the story and was more of a "times were different then" then that could be argued for a change. I also concede that many many many times, this notion goes way overboard.
