RE4 Soul vs Soulless || Bawkbasoup Reacts

[@theawesomewerewolf5084]

“Not a soul in sight.” -Ada in the RE4R SW DLC. Can’t believe she was a crowbcat fan the whole time.

[@zmbymstr11]

People can never be happy. If a remake isn't close enough to the OG, its souless. If it is too close to the OG, its a cash grab and the "OG didnt need a remake anyway." I think it s a genuinely good remake, follows the overall vision of the original but gives a satisfying different take.

[@Dianbler]

I would say that Capcom didn-t had to make the OG less cheesy in any way. That is my biggest criticism and I fucking hate RE4 og. However, the cheesiness of that game is unadulterated Resident Evil.

[@nrg6245]

And the gameplay is amazing so people who are complaining about ANYTHING that isn’t Ada’s voice actor is just a hater or troll bc they don’t like their own life.

One of the things i really liked about the remake is how they make leon look tired or anxious plenty of times, instead of being an action movie protagonist like in the OG. Examples: When they cage leon in the castle to kidnap Ashley. When you rescue Ashley in the island

[@watchmehope6560]

Yeah I like Capcom is doing this. Making their characters more human. :)

[@illtakethatasacompliment5839]

I never understood that argument against the new Leon. Like...what do they even mean when they say they prefer the old one's personality ? He literally has no personality in the OG except for some hilarious one liners, which are also present in the remake. What is there to hate ? They made him feel more human, but he's even more of a badass now, parrying everything, even a damn chainsaw with his knife for example. I'm not lying when I say I genuinely have no idea how people hate his new personality.

[@VergilHiltsLT]

Nawh, that's just the voice actor being bad. No emotional range, weaker voice. The removal of the ballistics line is a straight up disappointment too.

[@liszt646]

Yeah, I love Leon in re 4 OG but it always felt weird when you look at Re 2 and Re 6's Leon versions. It's like they have different personality lol. The good thing about Re 2 and re 4 remake is that we have the same VA for Leon (and he is way more in tone with Leon from Re 6)

[@davida7229]

​​@jedley01 I get 2nd hand embarrassment when i see ppl saying "ReALisM yAsss" as then we have leon parrying a fukn chainsaw with a literal kitchen knife, backflip dodging scythes, jumping off mine carts to another platform with no momentum to physically do that. The level of imbecile consumers present in todays day and age is beyond shocking at this point jc 💀

[@namanlamba5796]

Even if the audio and visuals weren't manipulated, there are just so many scenes from the remake that Crowbcat choses not to show. > The fight with the chainsaw sisters (probably because Leon does that backflip and Crowbcat can't show remake Leon looking cool) > The Mendez chase scene like Bawk mentioned > Showcasing the water hall only when the music stops playing > The castle battlements area > He also doesn't show any of the mines area where Luis teams up with you, even in the double el gigante footage, it's almost like he made an effort to exclude Luis > The krauser knife fight (not the cutscenes, the actual fight where you have to use the knife manually) > The garrador fight > For some reason in the water hall, while showing combat, he makes an active effort to run past an enemy after stunning it and not kicking it, like you can see him actively avoiding the melee prompt (ig he can't show remake Leon doing cool roundhouses???) > The main Krauser fight (all he does his show the transformation cutscene, not you know.... the literal rest of the fight) > The scene where Leon shoots Salazar, causing him to transform > He also cuts off many scenes in the remake to suit his agenda. Example:- the scene with the Saddler boss where Leon says "I'll give you a holy body" and stabs him with his own staff, Crowbcat cuts the footage off just when the rocket hits Saddler Everybody's entitled to their own opinion. The problem arises when you use such dishonest and slimy methods (like literally ommitting footage) in order to convince the audience into thinking a certain way. Because of this, I believe that this was an incredibly disengenous comparison. Even if Crowbcat was right on 1 or 2 counts, it doesn't matter because of the means he used to compare the two games and that his overall goal was not to compare them, but cater towards the orginal in a biased way

[@Yubl10]

I think that he didn't show the chainsaw sisters' fight specifically is not because of him not letting Remake Leon do anything cool but because it's an entirely optional fight in the original and a required fight in the remake. I think everything he shows is in both games and is similar in both and is required places and fights. The chainsaw sisters, I think, are the only optional fight in the OG game. The rest of your points, I agree with. Yes, he is making the remake look worse intentionally.

[@FalcoMoment]

​@@Yubl10 After the Cabin Holdout(which is thematically worse in the Original), you choose to either fight a bunch of Ganado and the Bella Sisters or just another single El Gigante but now in a long, narrow stretch. Most people pick the Bella Sisters because it's a more unique encounter, hence why they removed the choice in the Remake. Even then they didn't entirely remove that optional El Gigante, they moved it to Separate Ways for Ada to fight.

[@mtyc8494]

For some reason people also don't talk much about the opening scene, but there's a part before the ganado goes down in the basement and Leon questions him before kicking him in the face. It's so weird.

The sound mixing in RE4 Remake still isn't nearly as good unfortunately, as is the case with most modern games.

[@ZacTheFirst]

@@VergilHiltsLT I wouldn’t say the mixing but just the overall sound design in general doesn’t have the crazy “punch”. Original RE4 had this huge quiet-loud dynamic of quiet moments followed up by really loud punchy combat sound effects and a noisy, but not too loud soundtrack that adds dread

[@xsx1113]

@@VergilHiltsLT I highly disagree, although I can't speak for other modern games. The issue with the video is that not only did crowbcat boost the audio of the original to the point of clipping for emphasis, but for the remake he clearly has the audio on a mix of: surround sound, 3D sound and high dynamic range, which does not fair well when compared to the more compressed audio of the original. high dynamic range is a good thing if you have quality headphones, or good speakers and can crank it, but by default anything that appears louder is going to sound better, even if it technically sounds worse. the audio in the RE Engine games is top notch and I say this as someone who does audio engineering.

[@VergilHiltsLT]

@@xsx1113 I'm not talking about audio levels, I'm talking about SOUND DESIGN. How punchy the guns sound, footsteps, sound effects, not the loudness but the nature of the sounds. Two completely different things. I'm also talking about art direction, which the OG excels at, while Remake relies on super high fidelity graphics to create more detail, however the overall aesthetic look suffers because of this. It puts more emphasis on detail versus art. Color palette, object design, creative design of weapons, characters, proportions, etc. Also the voice acting in Remake is really bland. RE4 OG didn't take itself too seriously and had superb casting for every character. Call it "more realistic" in Remake, but that doesn't make it better when the character has no intonation in his voice, just the same monotone, if anything it sucks the fun out of the game. Krauser's voice and Ada in particular sound awful in Remake, and some voice lines are just tasteless. RE4 OG is by far the more entertaining game and gives the player time to rest in between dialogues. The audio quality itself is higher in the Gamecube/Wii versions of the OG. Later versions compressed it and removed certain SFX. I have Audio Technica M50X headphones BTW.

However I do think the og does have more personality. The UI, the ambiance and the horror aspect are better in my opinion. I actually think that's just what older games do as a whole. A lot of old games UI's have so much personality and creativity in it and when modern games create a UI its usually plain and boring now. Idk why things just happened that way but a part of me wishes for the fun UIs to come back.

Crowbcat is excellent at demonstrating and conveying the purpose of their video without the need of commentary. However, the RE4 soul vs soulless take is just awful. Probably the first video of theirs that easily shows just how bias they are to the original to the point that they purposely go out of their way to make RE4 Remake look/sound worse. The funniest thing about it though, is that it still demonstrates the purpose of the video; that Crowbcat believes that from the start, RE4 Remake was gonna be a low effort cash grab created by developers who didn't care for the original and had 0 passion. This video just demonstrates that Crowbcat still believes that.

I like the overall atmosphere better. And as someone who has lived in a rural area, there are a lot of times where it is just dead silent outside. I think the person who made the video didn't consider that the absence of noise is a choice too and just feels that more sound = more sound design. But there are also things that are better for the time, like the sexualization stuff. I roll my eyes at that shit now. And it also works for the overall vibe of the game. Why would Luis, in the midst of all of this, be like "Oh, damn! Titties"? But there are also things that are lost from the OG. I think the boss transformations are a great example. There was an opportunity for real body horror in grim detail and they skipped it in the new one. And the look of the treasures was so vibrant in the OG where it isn't really in the new one. I think if there's a place to put some cartoonishness in the remake, it would be in how the jewels sparkle and how shiny a crown is. Both are amazing, but so different.

[@maxtech23]

It's a shame how bias the video was, there both arguably 10/10 imo, i do prefer the original a lot of the time because of nostalgia but the remake is objectively a better game and mercenaries is so fun in the remake, it's also really funny that they didn't include the minecart section, how expansive the lake is in the remake compared to the og and the shooting range.

[@cubiyo7631]

Re 4 remake is one of the few instances I prefer a remake over the OG. Of course is not perfect in some aspects but overall as a game I feel is better and I grew up with OG. Both are solid 10/10 games and an example of how a remake should have been done. Also Separate ways is 1000 times better in remake than in OG and I was glad the price of it was cheaper than I expected.

[@BigSparky1316]

This guy got exposed for editing the audio in the remake and bettering it in the original clips. This remake made me actually like RE4 a lot more then I did for the original. They definitely brought the best gameplan they could to 4. Wish they would of did the same with 3 and some of 2.

[@carlmiller4110]

The OG is nostalgic but they did an amazing job of the remake and cut out the worst parts. I think the remake is so much better and it makes it difficult to go back and play the OG.

[@Charliem1994]

"Worst parts". Such as great cinematography, voice acting, facial animation, sound design and just fun, video gamey stuff?

[@Otakuknightcosplay]

For me Resident evil remake will always be the only good remake in the world now and forever ♥️ ❤️ ❤❤

[@mac1991seth]

The debate surrounding looking up Ashley has become so toxic and people throwing the word "sexism" willy nilly. It's not about sexism, coomer brain or actually seeing Ashley's panties. Hell, the game is basically calling you a pervert to your face so deleting that little detail makes the game less sexist? It's no longer sexist, because the game doesn't call you out on it? It all goes back to Gabe Newell's quote: the game is reacting to your actions. Here I am looking around for items, treasures or maybe I just cleared the area and called for Ashley to get out of hiding. She shows up at the ladder and she reacts to the fact that the camera is pointing in the wrong direction - the game is reacting to your actions. Whereas in the Remake the game is ignoring you.

[@kenny228s]

When it came out i bought it and only played it for 4 hours, I have not touched it since and yeah this video was not out back then. It just felt more realistic and a lot less stylized, cool versus trying to be cool so I told myself never to just blindly get another re the moment it comes out without watching any spoilers or reviews of any kind again.

[@Tee3001]

I'm right there with you, I got pretty far and just turned it off and put it up on ebay. I avoided everything and picked the game up day 1, made it to the Ramon fight and I couldn't bare it anymore. It really is like the remake is souless.

[@matics2808]

The most jarring part when it cuts to remake is the silence, every time. If you play remake with the Og soundtrack you get the best of both worlds. The remake soundtrack is mostly mute, it’s terrible. Gotta go with Of soundtracks. Same goes for RE2 remake.

To me as a Bigger Truth fan of RE Unives The first time I saw The First trailer for RE2 remake i new that it wasn't a Remake same as RE3 and 4 Remakes mostly because that's not how Remakes work remake Is to approve The original and repeat it from the ground up by adding New stuff in it Locations new enemy's New Cut scenes but keep it 100% faithful to the original just like how RE 1 remake not like These Shit Demakes and I really do think that there are people out there who can agree with me on that please like and let me know what you guys think do you think they are Remakes or just stand alone games That is truly inspired by RE 2.3&4

[@monkeybone1080]

Yeah that vid tries too hard. It's not so black and white. I do think the REmake fumbled a lot of things compared to the original, but I also think it's the best REmake of the bunch to date. Really enjoyed my time with it despite the issues. Also, I like Ada's new outfit (it's the best she's had since 4 OG) but to say it's better than the original? Just no. That dress IS Ada and really highlights the femme fatal that she's all about.

[@dal1947]

No, I don't wanna check it out or give it love. I was on that when it came out and I hated it then lmao

[@LeYoIdBeHe]

The only bad thing about this game, is the Ada VA. But I won't let a bad apple ruin the bunch. This game is a 95/100 easy. And I believe the og is too. Obviously nowadays It doesn't stand as high because technology advances, but when I was a kid, at the time, the og was a 95 I still think it is. If not, the remake is 100.

[@pedromiguel0007]

meh, completely disagree, i much prefer the Ada VA on the remake.

When you're so obsessed about "cut content", that you have to cut it yourself to fit your agenda.

[@KindlyKell]

CrowbCat usually hyper fixates on small details. Sometimes they make good points, sometimes not. They really dropped the ball with that vid. RE4R has so many actual issues that they ignored. Makes me think they went into the game wanting to dislike it. Doesn't cover how enemies grabbing you hurts your tactical vest for some reason, or how you take a little bit of damage instantly when an enemy grabs you before you can use a knife to get them off, unlike in RE2R. Or how sometimes the camera gets pulled away from the player to show them something in the environment, while enemies can still move and hit you. None of that, fixates on the audio being too low.

[@VergilHiltsLT]

You're misinterpreting the footage. It's not only about audio mixing, it's about art direction.

[@TheAverageGamer1]

At what point did the game take the camera away from Leon allowing you to get hit? I've done 10 runs amd haven't had that happen

[@KindlyKell]

@@TheAverageGamer1 Any time there are enemies present when the game enters those mini cutscenes, you can be hit. For example, when you get the cutscene of Salvador cutting down the overhang in the village fight while you are being held, an enemy can hit you during that. It's happened to me many times.

[@Numenorean921]

do you have any evidence crowbcats videos are altered? You said that about 500x in this video but I didn't see you bring any proof. I also noticed you were very quiet and quickly moved on when you couldn't use that excuse like at 29:34

[@jamess854]

There isn't any proof. People just couldn't take that crowbcat thought the remake was a bit soulless compared to the original. And there's nothing wrong with that. Imagine thinking that everyone has to agree with you. Complete hive mind, not unlike los illuminados.

[@Numenorean921]

@@Numenorean921 Oh yeah I don't deny that RE4R is good. I don't think it's a masterpiece like the original game. But in a vacuum, it's pretty good.

Yeah I’ve never seen that video, just hesrd varied opinions, but now seeing it… this is one of the worst ”comparison” videos I’ve seen. Literally shows the bad stuff of one game, doesn’t showcase any and I do mean any of the good stuff. For example, Krauser’s ”witness the power” line is in the game and Leon has one of the best answers. His jokes are still very much in, but of course almost none of that is showed.

[@go_better]

By the way anime-over-the-top camera angles were in remake, in knife counter attacks for example

[@Spongebob-lf5dn]

Y'all are not giving good enough reasons as to why the original is not better.

[@BerserkerS0ul]

I am greatful the VA in italian language are so good. Obviously the OG merchant is as inimitable as like nemesis OG. Krauser and Ada VA ENG are better in OG. Aniway OG have so much good atmosphere in some places like’s original games… And the gore/brutal is masterpiece in the OG and comedy too… But just only like that major proirity. Becouse everything in remake are better…

[@kungpochopedtuna]

I have to say I think I would still pick qte krauser over the new one at least for that first fight

[@YCookieYMe]

I grew up playing re4 og so it will always be better than the remake for me. I still like the remake is good tho its definitely not soulless but compared to the original the cheese is noticable

[@TheWesternFountain]

I wouldnt say re4r is souless, i think that is a massive overstatment, but there are bits and pieces here and there that annoyed me. There were parts that improved on the original though and made it better. I feel like his video should have been titled better as a "make your own choice" kind of thing instead of full on soul vs souless, probably would have made more sense.

[@onceyougozach2607]

I think the original game did have better and more "present" ambient music, the village at night imo was hugely downgraded in the remake in visuals and sound.

[@salvo27]

He has done some pretty entertaing and solid videos,with this one he 98% missed the point and with the comments deletion he made it even worse. Original and Remake are both awesome in what they do,but calling "Soulless" RE4 Remake after the amount of attention to detail and respect for the oiriginal material it's a bit too much.I am also against the stupid censorships (even if gladly it's not as noticeable as in previous Capcom games here) but that don't kill the overall quality.

Im right near the end of the remake as i beat the og this year (or late last year?) anyway one thing I think is objectively worse in the remake is the regenerators. Not scary at all now. They used to move so creepily and eerily... Also i hate the stun lock in this one. Still a good game

That's what people are forgetting. The remake isn't there to replace the OG. It's there to appeal to a more modern audience so they too can experience it. You want the cheesy, funny one liners and stylized cutscenes? Play OG. You want realism better gameplay? Play remake. I'm a fan of both, but one CAN NOT deny the gameplay is generally way better in the remake. I choose to look at them as two parts of a whole experience in a way, and if I were to make a "top 10 videogames ever" type of list they would probably share the spot

[@blastermaster5039]

@@blastermaster5039 Depends on what modern audience means. Does it mean people just now getting into games or does it mean a "modern" mentality?

I thought the original had better gameplay. Movement is way more precise, stuns are more consistent, enemies don’t grab you from off screen, and shooting dynamite is easier.

[@Sniffhow]

I agree that crowbcat's video is severely biased and full of BS, but the point of 20:00 isn't to show that Ashley is all prim and proper in the remake, it's to show that in the original you can hear rain and thunder and see the lightning through the window. The remake doesn't have that and the room is completely still.
