The object which seem to make light and what makes the actual light are two separate things. What RTX does is completely ignore the art direction (the real lighting of the scene) and make the lights shine. This changes the scene completely, often for the worse. It seems like no one played this before the release. Look at a different example. Double Fine released a remaster of Grim Fandango. They added dynamic shadows (no RTX, though, as the remake precedes the technology), but they focused on maintaining the mood.
