Remastered is aesthetically different enough that it shouldn't be considered preservation of the original game. We deserve reasonable access to the original Dark Souls on PC.

The original Dark Souls should be on gog, the remastered version is cool and all, but prepare to die edition has some things that make the game feel different. In my opinion the game should be brought to gog so fans of the saga can experience the true Dark Souls

I wanted to get into this game so badly and started a run in a copy of Prepare to Die edition I borrowed on Steam from a friend. Then, not only did library share get phased out, Prepare to Die got taken off the store front, so I have this game installed on my drive but I can't even play it! Madness, the original version of Dark Souls should be available to all regardless of it being "outdated;" the Mario games on NES are technically outdated by Mario All Stars on SNES, and you don't see Nintendo forcing us to play only All Stars if we want that experience!
More people need to be able to play this original version of Dark Souls without having to resort to piracy or paying 10,000,000 dollars for Steam Keys. The servers don't even exist anymore without mods, Namco literally has nothing to lose.
The Souls games are my favorite series of games ever. Dark Souls Remastered is awesome, but as many fans know, it's barely a remaster. Experiencing the original Dark Souls should be something that everyone should be able to do without needing to pirate it. You can't gatekeep art because a "better" version was released.
Those games also need your vote!

The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night
The Legend of Spyro: The Eternal NightThe Legend of Spyro: The Eternal Night is a 3D action platformer which takes place right after the events at the end of The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning. Players control Spyro as he searches for his friend Cynder. Initially, he has lost all of his different breath powers from the first game, but he gradually recovers the ability to breathe fire, ice, earth and electricity. New to this game is the ability for Spyro to slow down time using his newly-learned 'Dragon Time' ability. While the game has some basic puzzles involving pressing switches, the main focus is still around fighting. Spryo's primary attack is his headbutt, but he can also use his assorted breaths to defeat foes provided that he has enough magic power. He also earns blue gems from defeating foes which will allow him to level up his powers.
