Usually if Ashley dies it's the players fault for not paying attention to her. She'll stay right behind you, dodge your gunfire, you can tell her to wait in safe spots, and enemies will grab her and not kill her.

@@heathenpride7931 I’ll take Ashley over Sheeva anyday!

[@mr.sinjin-smyth]

As far as escort missions go, I'll say Ashley is easily one of the best (or the best) in any game ever. I had no problem (even enjoyed) protecting her, and to this day always find it fun and challenging. All those who complained clearly sucked in strategizing and protecting her. Not to mention I never once found her annoying, and I've seen way more annoying characters in other games. She doesn't deserve the hate she gets, if any, they could've developed her character in a sequel ala Sarah Conner style (Terminator 1 and Terminator 2). ;-)

[@mr.sinjin-smyth]

Also, I actually find Ashley really unique when it comes to escorting, strategizing and protecting NPCs. I've never seen any other game accomplish such a manageable escort NPC to what RE4 did. When hordes of enemies show up, Ashley would hide behind Leon immediately and huddle behind him constantly as you spray bullets even in full circle direction spin. She'd even duck if in a particular spot or corner (depending on your decision) if in line of fire or if she was saved from capture, she would immediately rush behind you. And seeing her drive a bulldozer is pretty rad and something she deserves more credit for, and indeed plays a crucial role in helping Leon get to places that's not possible without her. Wouldn't surprise me if most complains on Ashley is result of failing protect her. They just suck at escort missions. ;-)

Fr. Underrated quote. I was shatting bricks and leon's just like "fuck, not this again."

[@smashfanwii]

The ending credits sequence makes me so sad for the Ganados. They were just a little community doing what they could to thrive and then Sadler came and destroyed that peace through his experiments and religious exploitation. And then Leon just comes through and, while in self defense, decimates them. That, to me, is the scary part of the game. How a single person can manipulate a population to their destruction.

[@AnimePlaysMinecraft]

I feel like Ashley suffered the same meme-ification as Louis from Left 4 Dead. In game neither are actually that annoying but some isolated voice lines got out of control. Actual gameplay, Ashley is the best escort ever. She locks behind Leon in combat so you can both see her location and not accidentally shoot her. She also snaps behind Leon when walking so you can still see her in the corner and, most importantly, is the same speed as Leon. Being able to tell her to stop, follow and hide is all she needed. Not to mention, the piercing shrieks are themselves a game mechanic - a player needs to be able to quickly tell whether Ashley is in trouble and hear her over gunfire. Not to mention, Ashley is cute and quirky. I really like her ears and face with a slightly wider nose than the rest of the women. It gives her more personality and it's nice to not have the same copy-pasted women in games.

[@7095Sean]

Never forget those adorable first pumps she does after you shoot a Ganado.

[@PhyreI3ird]

This is the only explanation that makes any sense. Seriously, people keep acting like she's somehow bad when she has the single best ai I've seen for any sort of escort type gameplay. She is extremely good at actually staying out of the way and LETTING you save her, while never actually endangering herself. It's only really if you put her in a bad situation. The only times she's even slightly difficult is if you JUST so happen to have been moving fast enough for her to fall behind enough that she can't snap behind you when you turn around to start gunning - _and_ she also happens to crouch down infront of too many enemies for you to handle at once. Or if you just pull a free-wheeling 180 no-scope with a shotgun/tmp before she can crouch. Both are really fucking easy situations to not get into. I first played this game when I was 8 and it was the first game I'd even played a game with a 3rd person camera or manual 3D aiming, but somehow by the time I got to Ashley I never had issues with her. So I think you're right. It HAS to be the voice clips. And to me no voice clips can even come close to the pure AGONY that is shit escort-mission AI (hello Farcry Blood Dragon, hello Skyrim, hello ALL OF DEAD RISING ONE)

[@jameso2290]

@@PhyreI3ird I loved how in RE4 if you pointed your gun at Ashley she'd immediately duck out of the way. I also loved how she would snap to your shoulder and stay out of the way (you know, like a real person would). I have to agree that Ashley's AI is basically perfect, I don't recall ever having issues with her. Her behavior felt natural, and she never felt "in the way" of the gameplay. She felt like a genuine addition to the game and story. Which is weird that RE4 got it so perfect, and yet I recall in RE5 the AI characters constantly running right in front of your cursor and just standing there getting pelted with bullets. Its as if no game after RE4 have managed to get this kind of escort AI even remotely right.

[@PhyreI3ird]

@@jameso2290 I do wonder about that. I'm guessing making active (as opposed to Ashley who I guess I'd call "defensive") companion AI has to be WAAAAY more complicated than escort or enemy AI. Because not only are they having to react to the player, they're also having to interact with all the enemies at the same time, and somehow not interfere too much with either. I also wonder if RE5 was legitimately the first time any devs at capcom had to make a functional active-companion AI. I don't know of any other game they did something like that with, so I can understand why it turned out so bad. Even old school Bungie who got so lauded for their revolutionary ai, had some of the dumbest fucks ever being your companions in fights. However with Dead Rising, HOW did they mess that up when they had access to the same stuff that made Ashley work so well in the same role as the survivors? I can't think of any excuse for that, that was just a travesty lol

Completely changed my mind about flat-to-VR ports, and realized they can be amazing if they are done well, and RE4 is the best example of how to do it right...the only other one as good is the Halflife 2 VR mod. Also played Village on PSVR2, and it was really fun, but not nearly as good of a VR conversion as RE4.

[@mr.rashedmr.rashed7466]

It's crazy what they were able to pull out of a rocky development cycle, how damn polished and handcrafted the game is while having, to that point, the largest scope in the franchise. I remember the launch of this game like it was yesterday. I made it to Chapter 1-2, paused the game, called my friends and cancelled dinner that night, looked at the screen, and realized that I was playing the best video game since Super Metroid. I knew at the time i was playing something absurdly good, but that was also a stretch from 1988-2005 filled with absurdly good games. The difference between some of those and RE4 is that RE4's idiosyncrasies means it still holds up and feels as crunchy and well designed as it ever did. The stop and pop gunplay and stagger melee attacks, funny enough, are what froze it in amber to not be compared with modern cover or mobility shooters. It feels, in 2021, exactly as your 16 year memory of it does. It's almost arcade-like in the way it's takes such a small number of perfect interactions and keeps remixing, and remixing, and remixing. A quality Capcom could never replicate in the follow-ups. Brilliant game.

Considering escort missions in previous games are often disastrous, Ashley is brilliant! Seriously, if you learn her mechanics, which are simple, she's not an issue. She gets behind you and ducks when necessary. She's also immune to your roundhouse kicks which are very powerful! Proceed slowly but steadily!

I still managed to execute her in the water room because she doesn't automatically move away from where the gun is pointed, which seems reasonable since the ganados do it regularly themselves.

This game was made way back when the whole "which scenario order is canon" and Leon A/Claire B was the accepted "canon" by a vast majority of fans. It was only way after RE4 was made that the canon scenario order was made definite. Capcom always used to shrug when asked, but kept leaning more for Leon A to be canon.

I guess fans just wanted Claire to be more badass and be the one to fight the Super Tyrant and Final Birkin.

[@BadAssMacmillan]

RE4 seemed like the perfect storm. It just nailed all the elements that make an excellent action-horror third person shooter title. I think it all just comes down to great design and amazing vision, not necessarily one particular aspect. The first thing is that the shooting feels psychologically satisfying. It was as if Mikami and his team decided to start making a game just based on the idea of making shooting as satisfying and fun as possible. And damn, how they succeeded. Everything from the laser reticle, to reloading animations, enemy hit reactions, poping sound of a headshot, even the intensity and moments of time at which the gamepad vibrates. Top that with the aspect of crowd control, which takes some time getting used to, and which makes you always be on your toes. Then there's the excellent level design, great inventory system, great in-game economy, an upgrade system that is pretty much a steady drip of serotonin, and incredible sound design. Also, the game has masterful pacing. The ebb and flow of the game is superb. The high intensity action and big set-pieces are mixed with periods of exploration, treasure hunting, inventory management, light enemy encounters, light puzzle solving, It's all here. There's plenty of opportunity to really take in the experience and absorb the world that it creates. All of the explosive set-pieces were earned. For every cabin fight or military island attack, you had a half dozen 'catch your breath' and tension building areas, and these areas never outstayed their welcome. The other thing is that the enemies, and the enemy encounters are so well done. Every battle feels like a scenario that has been planned out meticulously, the way the enemies seem to hem you in and force you on the back foot, the way they escalate and have you on the edge of your seat, the way the environments are used to create a unique encounter each time. It perfectly utilizes each combat arena with specific gimmicks and creative hazards. The game is so good at creating this environment for player freedom and experimentation, while also making the enemies capable enough to push new combat experiences through their varied actions. It's designed in such a way that you could probably watch twenty people play one part and see it play out almost twenty different ways. The level design, melee attacks, enemy reactions, and arsenal of unique weapons contribute heavily to the variable approach to combat, and offer a lot of replay value and stories to share. And what’s insane is that all of this is done with the same basic mechanics that you had since chapter 1. To top it all off the game has memorable boss battles as well. I still can't decide whether RE4 is the game of that generation or Metroid Prime. RE4 was also the game that basically graduated Mikami and his team into the hall of the game design gods.

I recently played through this again in VR on the Quest 2. It's outstanding how well that game still holds up given the amount of time since the initial release.

I can't tell you how many times I've played RE4 or watched my uncle play. He's easily got over 5k hours over the years and when I saw the remake trailer I had to show him! He's hyped!

Has he played it what does he think?
