Honestly if they remake 4 in the new engine after 3... I hope they style the new leon to be like this one. That hair flap though lmao.

and just like that, one of the most incredible games of all time were made.

[@romz8968]

@sadiq2008 and how did RE4 destroye it? lool

[@CNAMonkey]

@sadiq2008 Actually the exact opposite. Capcom changed the formula because even they were getting bored of it. Res 6 was the one that tarnished the franchise. but clearly they have made the bounce back.

[@johntitor272]

Resident Evil 4 still has amongst the best pacing, encounter design, level design, gameplay loop, and overall game structure with incredibly satisfying mechanics today compared to everything that has come since. It's one of the most brilliantly cohesive and focused game visions ever executed. It is absolutely committed to a singular vision and evolving that vision throughout the experience, never once dwelling on one particular encounter or puzzle type, each lasting just long enough to engage and excite and then quickly abandoned in favor of something new. There's a convincing sense of progression and journey as you move between locations, an absurd number of unique and memorable locations that feel believably interconnected but absolutely unique by their own rights. And the core game systems of simply shooting and besting your opponents are refined to an absurd degree, immediately accessible and simple in their base functions yet surprisingly deep enough to raise the skill ceiling that growing and bettering yourself as a player is instantly reflected in moment-to-moment performance. The art direction and audio design is on point and focused at conveying particular moods and tones, all of which equally evolve and adapt to emerging encounter types and locational changes. Tension is matched with excitement, as the game toes the line between legitimate stalking horror and an overwhelming rush of adrenaline, all the while backed by an absurd doesn't-take-itself-too-seriously narrative that brilliantly sets up each location, encounter, and set piece. It's a remarkable accomplishment of video game design, and should remain an absolute template of how to get literally everything right in a game design direction and production.

[@grilledcheese9845]

Could not agree more on the pacing. The way the game builds up to the stronger enemy encounters and boss fights is unparalleled even in modern games. Its so cool how each level give you a different challenge or enemy to overcome, its a hallmark of thoughtful game design.

RE4 was a masterpiece, it totally revolutionized third person shooters with it's "over the shoulder" aiming system. Almost every third person shooter that has come out since has used the aiming system that RE4 invented. Gears of War, Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, Horizon Zero Dawn, etc all owe a great debt to Resident Evil 4

Dead Space was directly inspired by RE4 as well

[@PeanutButterAndJellyBros]

Without Resident Evil 4, we wouldn't have got games like Dead Space and The Evil Within. Shoutout to the team members that got tired of making the same gameplay style of the earlier RE games, without them we probably wouldn't have gotten Mikami's and Kobayashi's new vision and new direction for the original RE4 game. RE4 is the best!

Actually you have to arigato Shinji Mikami for it. As creator of whole series and RE4. Capcom just make them money for it. They do not make a game they only sell. This was shown by the experience of those parts that were after successful RE4. I’m not trying to be smart ass just dot the “I”. Because Mikami also worked on his game Evil Within at TG.and after he abstracted from the project, this series was also destroyed by making a stupid sequel. Someone may say that it was a successful sequel. But in my understanding it’s like RE6 right after RE4.
