Driving with mouse and keyboard feels terrible. Sure but saying a controller isn't much easier for driving is just factually untrue for so many reasons. I play with a KB+M myself because the driving is good enough with it, but the joystick on a controll is just much more precise.

A remastered version of Mafia II with updated graphics titled Mafia II: Definitive Edition was released on PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on 19 May 2020. The owners of the original Steam version had their copy of the game updated to Definitive Edition at no additional cost.

It's the original game from 2002. The Definitive Edition is a modern remake. While both games have the same setting and roughly follow the same story, while both are linear games set in an open world (not open world games - there's a difference) there are tons of differences. Since the early 2000s, videogames have changed a lot, after all.
This claimed downgrading of facial textures or coloring shouldn't have much to do with engine experience, as long as basic rendering pipelines are adhered to. Moreover, Mafia 2 runs on the same engine as Mafia 3, the Illusion Engine, which is also more than likely being used for Mafia 1 Definitive Edition.
