    Terrible art style, terrible characters models, bad graphics.

    Remember when Capcom used to have new games with massive graphics improvement? From RE2 to RE3 in the 90s, to 5 years later RE4 a game that was on a league of its own when it comes to RE games graphics and looked better than most games in its generation, and then doing it again with RE5 who looked better in every area than    Terrible art style, terrible characters models, bad graphics.

Now Capcom is trash when it comes to that, there's barely any difference from RE2 to RE4 remake, on top of that these new games have terrible art style like I said which makes things even worse, you can barely see anything in certain locations, and of course its because Capcom doesn't want us to look at the terrible RE Engine textures, extremely lazy.

    Leon and Ada are the same trash models from RE2. Original RE4 and RE6 Leon and Ada models are SO MUCH better. Remember when Capcom kept making new models for every new RE game but no one cared because they were all amazing? It's a good thing to have the same models returning but only when they are good, the thing is that Leon and Ada from RE2 are trash. Luis and Wesker models are trash too. They took everything that made those characters cool.

    The voice of acting of those characters are also terrible. RE voice acting was great in the late 2000s, back when every character looked and sounded memorable. What happened? We know using the same things again isn't a issue for Capcom, as they have been using many of the assets they created for RE7 in every single new RE game, and that's why the new RE games look so cheap. So why not use the same voice actors from the past? Those cheap **** are trying to save as much money as possible, no wonder most of the new RE games are mostly just a copy and paste. Same trash art style for every single new RE game, same trash character models, same assets for 4 games in a row. But they can't bring back the voices that made those characters popular, no, that's too much for them. Maybe they are trying to save money with that too, and it's less expensive to bring new people to do the voice acting, who knows.

    But of course dudes are giving 10 to this trash, because they don't understand gaming. This is just the new generation, the same dogs who think Fortnite is good, they don't know when a game is actually good because they haven't played any.

    Gun sounds are terrible. Amount of cut content are terrible. Leon movement animations are terrible.

    Leon in the original was extremely stylish like Dante, literally every single animation of Leon was created to make him as stylish and cool as possible, which suited his personality very well. Now Leon personality is changed to worse, and theres literally 0 stylish things about him, even the spinning kick looks dumb as **** but his movement is just the worst.

    This game is going to be hyped for about 2 months and then everyone is going to forget about it, it will never be a classic that people kept playing for 20 years like the original.    … Expand

In other words, don't take this user score seriously, because it is, literally, manipulated and fake.

    Game itself is very good, near-masterpiece. Easily one of the best games Capcom has ever made and one of the best RE games of all time. Only real thing missing is U-3 boss fight. Because Remake literally improves everything else. Also i'm pretty sure that U-3 will be in the DLC, so hopefully soon, even that problem is solved.

    Thank you Capcom for making 2023 such a great year!    … Expand

    Jogo está impecável, não consegui jogar com os gráficos que nem o do PS5, pois o meu pc não é muito bão. Mas mesmo assim os gráficos são impecáveis, a gameplay, a ambientação, TUDO!
    As Boss fight todas bem planejadas e fiéis ao jogo original, algumas bem fáceis mesmo no modo Intenso. Não é muito assustador, é mais frenético, o R2 é muito mais assustador!

They added in so much extra content stealth, parrying, side missions/requests, new weapons, new enemies, and much more.

    The game is great. It delivers what we expected; a refreshed version of its 2005 predecessor. The only thing I would like to say is that the voice actors of Krauser and Ada could be better, but more than that, it is a pretty good remake.

    Resident Evil 4 remake is literally so amazing. It has great replay ability and kept true to the original. They expanded on the story, which was kinda lacking in the original. They changed some things but all to make the game better. This game had really big shoes to fill, which they succeeded.

    I am disappointed by game play, music, art style, dialogue, voice actors, and cut content. The game cannot in any way be a replacement for the original 2005 version, and i doubt it will be remembered in a few months.

    Dar uma nota baixa para esse jogo é sem duvidas uma das atitudes mais canalhas e endrôminas possíveis, só leva a conclusão de que a pessoa esteja sendo ignorante ou estupida propositalmente.

    Ignorar as qualidades deste Remake é negar a realidade, ou , uma forma de negacionismo advinda da falta de fundos para a compra do mesmo.

    Excellent reinterpretation, I was strugling to leave the controller even when I already knew what would happen...ish. They improved most of the flaws of original RE4. Better voice acting, backstories, they removed a lot of the goofy / annoying parts, graphics are outstanding. If you liked the first one you'll like this one even better, if you haven't played it...you are missing out.

    Capcom have managed to create one of the greatest games of all time yet again. Captures everything I loved about the original, which is/was my favorite game.

One of, if not the most visually impressive game I've ever played. The RE Engine continues to be one of the most impressive engines in the industry. Overall I think this is easily the best Resident Evil game out of any of the recent releases since RE7, and arguably the best in the franchise, contending with the original. It's full of content, with my first playthrough taking over 20 hours, in comparison to RE Village taking me 11 hours. I recommend this game to anybody that's a fan of the series, survival horror games, or just third person shooters in general. I promise you will get your money's worth.

    This remake is about as good as it's going to get. Reimagined characters, great exploration aspects, corny one liners and phenomenal combat. I don't think it replaces the original since that is such an iconic piece of gaming history. I'm starting to muster up hope for a good RE5R.

    Capcom has surpassed themselves with this remake by taking the awesome setting of the original game and merge it with modern mechanics of the RE Engine. They deepen the lore and story elements that were lackluster, and made this game more coherent with the rest of the modern franchise. I really enjoyed that different take on RE4, which is on my personal list for GOTY.

    The game does not live up to the original in any way. Worse voice acting from supporting characters, missing levels and it does not even control as smoothly with more input lags than the original's smoother controls. How is this a 10/10 game?!?

    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.
