    Это, конечно, не революция в жанре и не "переосмысление", как ремейк 2 части, а больше обычный ремастер, но всё равно играется это невероятно кайфово, словами ощущения от геймплея не передать, наверное, это действительно, идеальный синтез всех элементов недавних резидентов, допиленный до идеала, но 10 из 10 я уж точно этому не поставлю, даже если опустить сюжет (да, персонажи стали

    Это, конечно, не революция в жанре и не "переосмысление", как ремейк 2 части, а больше обычный ремастер, но всё равно играется это невероятно кайфово, словами ощущения от геймплея не передать, наверное, это действительно, идеальный синтез всех элементов недавних резидентов, допиленный до идеала, но 10 из 10 я уж точно этому не поставлю, даже если опустить сюжет (да, персонажи стали чуть получше, но это всё еще формальность),
    Я считаю, что надо было делать переосмысление, и вырезать нафиг локацию с Замком и финальную, несмотря на то, что да, я согласен, что это одна из лучших игр года, и, даже чуть лучше недавнего крутого ремейка моего любимого Деда Спейса, Деревня невероятно атмосферная, но это только треть игры, после нее игра уже меня не цепляла и очень "душила", кто-то скажет субъективно, но представьте, что начиналась бы первая треть игры с замка, вас бы точно так не затянуло, я не говорю, что должен быть один сеттинг на всю игру, но приключенческий боевик должен увлекать на протяжении всего хронометража, ну или пугать.. Что страшного в финале игры - вообще непонятно,
    Еще и цветовую гамму побоялись особо изменять, она, конечно, не настолько оранжево-унылая, как в оригинале, но самый первый уровень с синевато-мрачным визуалом был гораздо лучше, а потом всю игру опять оранжевая сероватость, также боссы меня совсем не впечатлили, как обычно в Резике - унылые серые дизайны, по геймплею средние, хотя бой на ножах с "Краузером", конечно, гениален. Крч "Рокн-Ролла" и кардинальных изменений от Ремейка не ждите, это - моя главная претензия.
    Из классных мелочей, что мне запомнилось: "Пиратский" тир - одна из самых кайфовых бонусных мини-игр, что я видел в играх, у торговца неплохая озвучка, тупые шутки Леона - это прям то, что надо, а также я обязан отметить "повседневную" куртка Леона из "Deluxe" издания, с ней прям персонаж чувствуется по-другому, за около 300р можно докупить отдельным длс, но такое нужно делать бесплатно, обладатели обычной версии же даже не узнают о нём.
    Технически Re:Engine далеко не некст-ген, местами в узких комнатках текстуры стен не отличить от PS1, и я ни разу не шучу, общая детализация объектов тоже оставляет желать лучше, поэтому также не пойму похвал графике от критиков, но, в целом, для игры с динамичными боями, приемлемо.
    Поиграть первые 5-7 часов стоит всем, но проходить полностью одну из лучших игр года, как не парадоксально, но я считаю, необязательно.
    p.s. Нельзя было сразу это выпустить пару лет назад, а не абсолютно ненужный рескин семёрки - Re:Village, который хуже во всём, но нет, Capcom же нужны все деньги мира.

    Capcom has once again proved that it takes care of its heritage by releasing a remake of an excellent action-horror adventure.

I understand why people like it, but for me, it missed the mark. Moving forward to this remake, I believe it found a way to take fans of survival horror, and fans of RE4 and bring them together. This game, for me, is RE perfection. The game maintains its action oriented focus while allowing the true survival horror aspect to shine through just enough. I believe that the enhanced graphics and pacing really allow the game to shine and bring fans of both camps together. I cant recommend this game more highly.

    Dont come into this expecting an exact 1:1 recreation of the original game. Its a modern take on a classic game. I think it vastly improves it and allows it to maintain its character while improving the horror mechanics.

The combat is super fleshed out, encountered 0 bugs/issues, the puzzles are something anyone of all ages can complete, the suspense of something happening or turning a corner is always there, very great game if you want to try out the Resident Evil Series as a whole. Only critique I could give is the final hours of the game took a more action based approach but rather than horror but didn't mind, the final boss is a bit too easy in my opinion. 9/10 Definitely Recommended

    People giving this game 0 are obviously braindead. As for the game, wonderful remake of the absolute classic. Great for both new players as well as for veterans. The only thing I didn't like was soft locks from different areas without any prior warning. Voice acting could be better too. Apart from this it's a wonderful game, gj Capcom.

    Ashley: "Leon!"
    Leon: "Ashley!"
    Ashley: "*Feminine Screaming!" Leon: "Ashley!" This is the thing that you will go through when you meet Ashley for the first time, and I like it. Also, Ashley is also pretty, that's all I'm saying. Ok now for the rest of the game, this is a well-made game, I never played the 2005 Original so Resident Evil 4 is a first for me.

    Ashley: "Leon!"
    Leon: "Ashley!"
    Ashley: "*Feminine Screaming!"
    Leon: "Ashley!"

    This is the thing that you will go through when you meet Ashley for the first time, and I like it. Also, Ashley is also pretty, that's all I'm saying.

    Ok now for the rest of the game, this is a well-made game, I never played the 2005 Original so Resident Evil 4 is a first for me. In the past, I have played the RE2 and RE3 Remake and It seems Capcom is on a roll, however, I still have a few problems with this game.

    The problems:
    In-game problems (These can vary from gameplay to mechanics)
    External Game Problems(These are content and other features)
    Misc (Small little pick here and there.)

    So first In-game problems, Leon moves like an old man, I would have appreciated an actual dodge mechanic like the last of us part 2, the quick turn is the most useless feature ever, because sometimes you misclick and it ruins the flow of the game and you get hit for stupid reasons.
    Stealth in this game is also kind of pointless you can just run around in sections mostly and shoot away.
    Guns are like baby pellet guns, I played this game on Easy first, and with a fully upgraded pistol, I expect 1 maybe 2 bullets to kill an enemy when shooting them in the head on Easy. Instead, it's like this:
    *Headshot
    The enemy is stunned
    *Headshot again - 1 bullet
    Enemy still walking
    *Headshot again - 1 bullet
    Ok Now he is dead, sike he is on the floor reviving
    *He wakes up
    *Shoots again - 1 bullet
    Nothing happens
    *Shoots again - 1 bullet
    Ok, now he is dead.

    In most cases, it's like that sometimes they drop after 2 or 3, the shotgun is the best weapon.
    Next is Ashley, It maybe would have been better for Ashley to help a bit, maybe allow her to stun some enemies and then run away and hide. Instead, it's like this, you look away for one second and Ashley is already being taken away.

    Next is external Problems, I'm going to say it Capcom, stop putting microtransactions in your games for a quick buck, and just sell games please, Adding the mercenaries update and some ticket pay-to-win mechanics is not a good practice. And of course the big D...Denuvo, I don't want some 3rd party DRM slowing this game down and potentially ruining the experience. I'm here to buy your game, not some 3rd party DRM that can tax my machine.

    Misc problems, it has to do with the changes of some scenes in the game, including when you play the game for the first time, We were also supposed to pen the game and hear RESIDENT EVIL FOUR, but that didn't happen, the moment was spoiled. And I believe in the game there were some character and scene changes, I'm unfamiliar with them But I will take them into account.

    Other than that, a really polished game, I never experienced any bugs or crashes and wasn't overly frustrated with the game mechanically, but I do think RE2 is still better than this game slightly.

    Graphics: 9/10, The use of Quixel Megascan assets is kinda cheating.
    Story: 8/10, Some things are not explained, and some things are dragged out for too long.
    Characters: 9/10, Nice characters, Ashley is Pretty, Leon is a Chad, and the others are fine.
    Gameplay: 6/10, It's playable, I expected some better use of mechanics, Quicktime events are not mechanics.
    Performance and Polish: 10/10, That's shiny.
    Scumbaggery(Oh what this? This is a new section where I can tell how much of a scumbag Publishers can be, 0 is for nothing 10 is for...well you know): so 8/10, Its a Remake with Microtransactions, and DRM to put it lightly.

    So overall what shall I bequeath thee, CAPCOM, I'm fighting between a 7 and a 8, I think its a 8/10, If you remove all those MTs, and DRM then +1, if you did some innovative mechanics and kept some scenes and features then +1, you'd have a perfect game, it doesn't have to be 100% of the original, it just needs to be really really close.

    Ok that's it, I know my reviews can be long but thanks for reading, and pick this game up on a quick sale when you get a chance.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Finalizei Re4 Remake, sem duvidas um dos melhores, se não o melhor, remake q já teve, além da varias melhorias gráficas e de gameplay, tbm teve as da historia, q deixou ela com um tom bem mais serio(seinen, para os mais íntimos) e assustador, mas mantendo a essência do original e até aprimorando ela, todos os personagens foram expandidos e ficaram bem melhores desenvolvidos, principalmente o Luís Serra, o kra no original só morria e fds, já aqui n, ele participa bem mais e ajuda muito mais o Leon, além de ter o background expandido. E sem sombras de duvidas uma das melhores mudanças, foi a Ashley, n falando só da aparência(está ∞ vezes mais bonita e fofa), mesmo a personalidade e ações dela no jogo estão bem melhores, ela n tá tão mais chata, tem muito mais linhas de dialogo no jogo e muito mais personalidade, além de q ela age muito mais por conta própria, ate mesmo ajudando e salvando o Leon algumas vezes, mas embora essa parte dela agir por conta própria, tenha se dado de maneira muito natural, teve alguns momentos q a Capcom forçou a barra pra meter isso, como no final, em q a Ashley da em cima do Leon e pede pra ele ser o guarda-costas dela e ele diz q ela n precisa pois já demonstrou conseguir agir por conta própria, o jeito q ele falou ficou muito estranho. As adições do remake ficaram simplesmente espetaculares, como as quests do mercador, novas áreas, e etc. tudo só serviu pra elevar ainda mais oq a obra original tinha a oferecer, como um verdadeiro remake deve ser. Tendo dito isso, minha nota final é 9,5/10 o jogo é realmente espetacular e faz jus ao original, a nota dele só n foi dez por causa da forçação com a Ashley e por causa de alguns cortes de conteúdo original, q por mais q n sejam tão relevantes, ainda são cortes.

    Ótimo game, mas bem distante da experiência survival horror gerada no RE7 e no RE2. O jogo como um todo está maior e consequentemente sua ambientação e experiência geral sofre pela perda de cenários medonhos/amedontradores, o que não me agrada muito, mas não afeta a qualidade geral do jogo.

    Resident Evil 4 is a good remake. It is not as creative as RE 2 reincarnation, and it follows the original too diligently, but it still looks very decent.

    As far as remakes go, Resident Evil 4 is very solid, but very safe, to the point of losing some of the original’s spark. Early RE games used to be unashamedly goofy, and RE4R seems to be afraid of that legacy. [page 64]

    Resident Evil 4 is a truly fantastic remake of an already-stellar title. Some of the omissions, tweaks and changes do mean that it’s a perfect complement to the original experience rather than a replacement, but this is about as fine an update to a classic as one could possibly hope for.
