Remake is a masterpiece of its own. Sure, it lost a lot of charm from the original since the remake is a more serious game but still I really liked how they made certain levels more entertaining and cohesive, the level design is top notch and Island doesn't drag so much like in the OG, where there's just too much going on. There is only one problem with the remake for me, it tried to be TOO serious while RE4 was always praised for its campiness. Salazar is no longer as funny as he was in the OG, he's quite forgettable to be honest because not only he doesn't show up as often, his interactions with Leon aren't as comedic as they used to be. Making him a more serious villain unfortunately took away everything that he was known and liked for. Saddler also is a huge downgrade, we meet him in person only on the Island and he's now very generic bad, religious guy. He hasn't got this mystical aura about him and his face seems kinda generic too, his old look was much more memorable. Yeah, the remake is great but it's also an example that sometimes giving a game more serious tone doesn't really work with certain aspects of it.

Its pretty common that modern gaming doesn't understand what visual clarity is, and with that said, no wonder why many people gets lost when comes to what direction to take in the levels (despite being really simple like in the original game). Also the over textured environment and zoomed-in camera makes every damn bear trap blend and really hard to see.

Ashley even during the forced escort parts aren’t really a big deal. She’s constantly taken away by the ganados and even during times you are forced to have her stick with you, she stays with you and I’ve never shot her unless it was intentional. Only part of the game she can be unbearable is the water room in the beginning of the castle, where the shield guys will kill her with no attempt to just pick her up. Her only purpose is just to have more convenient sequences that wouldn’t make sense if you were by yourself.

@lc3212 Жыл бұрын
When it comes to Ashley I have had no issue in the remake. The one time I felt she was annoying (and I’m trying to avoid spoilers here for those that haven’t played the remake yet) I didn’t realize that I could keep her from getting caught or hit by just trying a different strategy. I actually like the new lines of dialogue her and Leon have adding a bit more to her personality. I did end of shooting her once though I was using the pistol that shot through the ganado that was carrying her (sorry drawing a brain fart on the exact pistol and immediately realized it lol. I do understand some things were cut here and it’s not as campy as the og release but I’m enjoying it for what it is. Honestly I like the changes as more grounded tone of the remake. Without it being a 1-1 remake it leaves reason to still go play the og release for those few cuts and campy tone. I can’t say I like the remake more than the og because the og version is special to me for nostalgic reasons but I am glad the remake was made for a new generation and hopefully some who may not have played the og version will go give it a chances to see the differences many have talked about but I’m loving taking my time with the remake. A lot of the changes and tweaks and new sections have me on my toes with the tension just like the og version. Both the og and the remake deserve a place today in my opinion and maybe this is an unpopular opinion but I wouldn’t mind seeing an re5 remake with this treatment if capcom decides to. The remake may not ever be considered as good as the og but to me re4 from 2005 is lightning in a bottle that can’t be replicated but the remake here comes as close as you can get in my opinion and as far as remakes one of the best remakes of an older game I have ever played.
@Sumea_Saukko Жыл бұрын
I agree that this game is an absolute masterpiece. But i do not agree with your complaints about Ashley. Its literally your mission in the game to save her, so its completely understandable all of the sections that take place with her.

He even trashed the goofiness despite the fact that it's meant to be a dumb B movie and the campiness is what gives Resident Evil its charm. And of course, like most modern game reviewers, he mocked fans that criticized the female designs and not being able to look up Ashley's skirt; it's like he's becoming another Angry Joe.

Finding trustworthy one-man-show KZbinrs, that get review codes, is hard, if they exist. Unlike a website which has separate departments, a solo KZbinr -the person reviewing the game- is the same one that has to play buddy-buddy with PR to get early copies in the first place. There’s an obvious conflict of interest, which is why “access journalism” is an oxymoron. There’s a threat of accidentally biting the hand that feeds you. So these big KZbin reviewers are much more likely to downplay criticisms or that issues are “personal, but won’t affect other people”. They don’t want to pi$$ off those companies (or the people in charge of hanging out review copies, which could partly be why some reviewers are more political, because the people in charge of review codes are). And because they only make reviews, and nothing else, if they don’t get early access, no one will watch them. Their “audience” isn’t really there for the KZbinr. It’s just that KZbinrs are more personable than watching an IGN or GameSpot review, but most KZbin early access reviewers are more or less interchangeable still. So if these KZbinrs were a week or even a few days late with a review, most people would skip because they only watched them for early access, and already watched someone else by that point. So the largest KZbin review channels will also have the softest reviews, because they only got so big by getting early access. Not because they grew organically from people wanting to hear their opinion.

I was cautiously optimistic about the remake before I played the demo, but came away unsatisfied. On the surface it seems like a fairly faithful remake but there are lots of little things that felt off to me. The aesthetic is overly grimdark, I don't like the character designs, and every environment is cluttered with pointless detail, necessitating the obnoxious yellow tape over everything you can interact with. The intro is slowed down, the first enemy encounter is a cutscene and not gameplay. Making the knife breakable was a stupid change. The guns don't feel as good to use as in the original and Leon controls like he's in a swimming pool; yes the original had clunky controls but nothing like this. I also experienced bad performance on my PS4 and technically the game is quite ugly, with blurry textures and enemies flickering when more than a few feet away.

I've always been drawn to horror video games for the reason that they always seemed to be the most experimental and daring. Silent Hill 2 blended narrative and enemies together to show James's psyche. Fatal Frame's main weapon is a camera that provides the player a way to spot ghosts and kill them with photographs. Haunting Ground played with ideas of a fear mechanic that makes Fiona panic and run on her own as well as preventing you from opening the menu until she calms down. Alan Wake had the flashlight mechanic and presented the game in a television series format. The list goes on and on. I'm just impressed by how creative the devs behind these games were and I hope that the ones behind the RE4 remake can capture some of the magic of the original. I know it's unlikely but hey I'm trying not to doompost here. I'll see you lads on Synth's RE4R livestream.

Resident Evil 4 is definitely a masterpiece. This remake, on the other hand, definitely is not.

The word “masterpiece” is seen semantically challenged. The word, in it’s original form, is supposed to be a piece of work that proves an artisan/craftsman’s competency in their field, granting them status of “master” of their craft. Now, “masterpiece” seems to mean “thing that I like so much that I put it in it’s own higher category”

@@porkyminch5131 Thank you! Yeah the Remake is just ugly to me. I love how graphics used to look. The super realistic graphics of the new Resident Evil games turn me off. Resident Evil 4-6 have beautiful graphics but Resident Evil 4 has thee BEST gameplay of them all. Hell it has the best everything! 🤘 I love everything about it!

@@porkyminch5131 art style is fine, it's this weird obsession with degrading clarity especially with some enemies who look like they are cloaked by shadow, not a fan and whole remake has problems when trying to improve upon the original which it was it's job since it's not an actual remake but a reimagining

I started playing through the entire series at the beginning of this past fall, playing the og versions and the remakes of each respectively. I enjoyed pretty much all of them, especially RE2 remake, but holy shit did RE4 blow me away. The mix of arcadey shooting, B-movie humor, and genuinely creepy body horror, made it a must play. I'm excited for the remake, especially if it's going to be more alike RE2 remake (and get rid of QT events) but the og version will always remain a must play, and that's something that the remake can't replace.

13:56 This scene was just straight up hilarious, I even remember my Mother and brothers watching me play the remake mimicking the line when we ran into Luis during the remake cabin. They sat there joking around saying "welp, gonna need to take a few points off review net for that one!" While my mom even joked back and said "no game of the year now." Resident Evil 4 2005 and it's charm was so amazing, and although I understand Capcom wanting to pursue a more serious story, but if people are really throwing the misogynist card on a game that was never made to be taken seriously then I don't know what to say at that point! XD
