Johnny vs. Resident Evil 4 (2023)

[@rebaxbayushi577]

3:36 I just want to point out... Ashley being able to operate a bulldozer was actually a part of her story. Ashley was studying to be an engineer and had the permit to operate large machinery. It wasn't mentionned in the game, but it was in other medium.

@@lizdevine2525 I don't remember which one it was, but Capcom published either a book or a magazine to explain more of the game, it's story, the stories of both Louis and Ashley and a bunch of other stuff.

To respond to John’s question to new players who have only played the remakes on if they feel 4 remake was a good escalation to 3, I’ll admit there were times I was absolutely missing the dodge mechanic. There were times where I was more reckless than I should’ve been cause my mind was still in “I can dodge if I’m in real trouble” mode only to obviously be overwhelmed not too long after lmao. Overall though I do think 4 remake was a perfect step forward and I still had so much damn fun playing this game that it not having a dodge button didn't really bother me most of the time.

The "Remake" sucks, so no. XD

[@johnlawful2272]

Leon use crouch to dodge axes and verdugo

[@raikohzx4323]

The crouch can dodge things pretty well, certain attacks have context-sensitive dodges, and PC players can just mod a rolling dodge into the game anyway since the "framework" for it still exists in the code to be called whenever.

[@Nerom99]

So one thing I want to talk about the story is that I *really* like how Krauser and Luis are utilized in Leon's personal journey here. Leon's personal conflict has to do with the RC-incident and his government training making him lose the idealism he had as a rookie. Luis embodies that idealism as a fan of Don Quixote, a man who's obsessed with the romantic notions of knighthood. Krauser, being the one who molded Leon into what he is now, symbolically works as the one to kill Luis. It's something I can really appreciate here. I also agree with your assessment on REmake 4 is more of a compliment to the original rather than a replacement.

[@Da_ComputerMonster]

Kind of funny this decade has been referencing ALOT of Don Quixote as of lately; Like it's almost creeping back into modern culture. (Cause I believe Elden Ring also payed a reference, with a Lance being stuck on the side of a Windmill?)

[@Nerom99]

[@scottroxford5715]

Haven't watched the video yet just scrolling through comments to see what people are saying and I disagree with the game being a compliment completely, it's a spit in the face. RE4 is one of those games where there's not a single thing I can GENUINELY and LEGITIMATELY hold against it and the remake is like a what if scenario where "what if Resident Evil 4 wasn't good?" I'm almost done with the game and during my time I haven't felt anything but boredom and disappointment, it lacks soul and is just such a downer of an experience. It's getting its dick sucked dry for now but I'm calling it, it's not gonna age well when being compared to the original. Crowbcat's video sums up the conversation better than I could.

The original RE3 had a sidestep that wasn't in any of the other classic RE games, so I don't think it's a problem or mistake to lose it for RE4's remake. The parry feels much better and keeps you closer to the action, so I feel it accomplishes the same gameplay loop as the original RE4. That version was all about forcing you to close the gap and melee, so now the parry lets you do it faster.

[@elibonham4388]

Truth the parry is awesome

[@MrSlendyMannn]

Agreed. The parry is insanely satisfying when you get it down right.

[@Twilight17Petkoton]

Yeah parry is timing on easy and normal difficulty but hardcord and professional difficulty minimize the parry knife techniques. Good part I like having Leon bomber jacket and RPD outfit for Leon is getting a S plus in the Mercenaries mini game for all characters and the selection stages it's about 500 thousands points.

I’d have loved to see a type of hallucination mechanic ala Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem. Saddler could occasionally appear like Alma from F.E.A.R., randomly appearing from the corner of your eye then disappearing. You could also hear whispers from time to time calling out to you. Maybe the fountain pours blood for a few seconds. Maybe a tentacle drags across the floor quickly leaving to show the plaga trying to reach out to you. Ashley could be affected, randomly making her suddenly walk towards the enemy to be taken. She might ask Leon if he’s okay or Leon might check on Ashley. This can all show that Saddler, even if he’s not close to you, still has control. Maybe it might mean, he’s near Leon and Ashley, roaming the area like a tyrant in his own right. Also, why not let you get a free ticket for completing all the missions since by then you should be nearing the final level for your weapon. You could also have an extra ticket somewhere in the world that changes each playthrough and tickets could be sold for money.

The fact that they replaced that Krauser QTE BS cutscene with an actual boss fight (in fact, they got rid of most QTEs outside of combat) makes this the superior game to me. The Salazar statue was particular aggravating to me, because, when I played the Switch version, the QTEs glitched out and require me to mash the button twice as fast: I simply couldn't mash fast enough and was stuck in a dead game.

[@TheKingBahamut]

So it's not just me! I only found it to be aggravating on Professional difficulty; on Normal difficulty, I could mash just fine without much trouble.

[@thecardusguy5610]

It’s not a one-time glitch, it's a direct result of the 60 FPS option of the HD ports of RE4 which completely messes up certain game elements. You have to be twice as fast when mashing if you play on the PS4, Steam, Xbox and Switch versions of RE4. Plus I seem to remember that QTEs are sped-up on professional even in the old versions of the game (GC, PS2, Wii etc.) so you have an unintended AND an intended disadvantage.

[@GrieverSSBU]

Johnny, to have fun with Luis in Mercenaries, build up your Mayhem Mode meter then everytime you use it, you drop dynamite at your feet which gives you ample I frames to completely negate fatal attacks. You can shoot it to detonate it early and use it for crowd control. Once it's detonated you can place as many as you can detonate before Mayhem Mode runs out. They do no damage to you but insane damage to enemies and kill bosses in one or two uses. Luis is actually ridiculous. Do running melees for shoulder charge instead of the pipe since it's faster. The man is a menace.

[@TylerRuins]

Coming from someone who has played the original RE1-5 and all the remakes, regarding the lack of the RE3R dodge, I _do_ miss it. It's certainly not a big loss in RE4R (Leon has plenty of combat options as it is) but, despite my overall indifference toward RE3R, against certain enemies, like Nemesis, the dodging felt great! I feel weird suggesting this, considering that I think RE should still have horror as a priority, but I'd love to have an entry that includes the remake dodges and parries. It doesn't have to be a mainline title but those mechanics feel so satisfying that I'd love to see them brought together in some fashion.

I'm an old school RE player that loves the hell out of the new games, but I can say one of the difficult things adjusting to when playing a lot of one game then switching to the other is the changes in defensive options.

[@tboe9007]

As for the dodge mechanic, I feel it did not need to be here. Seeing as Leon can duck under lots of attacks such as grabs or hatchets, you still have some ability to dodge certain attacks without sacrificing the durability of your knife, if you are skilled enough. The game doesn't tell you this except for the scythe enemies and certain boss fights, and I kind of appreciate that. I think it makes repeat playthroughs far more rewarding to master this and, while it isn't nearly as reliable as it was in RE3, it feels way better to pull off. It gives an extra layer to those split second decisions and I think it makes the combat feel a lot more interesting.

They made a masterpiece into a masterpiece again. Wild.

2:06 And while Resident Evil 4’s remake is met with near universal acclaim, Final Fantasy 7 is met with results as divisive as Sonic Adventure 2 with either the love factor or detesting.

4:13 I think they do cover that in Chronicles games iirc.

They should remake code Veronica and that’s it, RE5 doesn’t need a remake at all, instead of remaking some of the more mediocre entry’s in the series, Capcom is better off in new territory, Village was very promising and while I don’t want the franchise to go first person, the foundation was great and we should continue with new ideas instead of just treading backwards.

I didn't mind the lack of dodge roll mechanic from RE3R. In this game you had options to avoid damage by either parrying, interruptions by shooting, stepping out of range or crouching (which avoids grabs and lots of horizontal moves). Felt more satisfying to pull off at least for me.

Not gonna lie, I was waiting for that one and I'm happy that this video is finally out !
