    A Masterpiece. I'm a huge fan of the original from 2005 and this remake took that and pumped up everything and changed what needed to be changed.
    Now waiting for the mercenaries and Separate Ways to finally play Ada, Wesker and Krauser

    Best RE remake ever. The game has successfully adopted classic survival horror to modern graphics and gameplay with drastically improved game mechanics while remaining faithful to the story and the ideas of the og.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I don’t leave reviews but with the overwhelming amount of brain dead discord moderator **** virgins who want to leave fake reviews and complain they can’t see pixilated panties in this new remake of RE4.
    The game is honestly an almost well polished faithful reimagining of the classic 2005 release of Resident Evil 4. The atmosphere and tone to the game leaves me feeling suspense and dread from the dungeons of the castle when you fight your first Garrador all the way to the laboratory filled with grotesque terrifying Regeneradors. With heart racing action packed set pieces that are way more balanced than the over abundance of enemies in the original. The island section of the game definitely got toned down from the OG which is something I’m so happy for because the original island section was the worst part of the game with nothing but filler and randomness that left a sour taste in my mouth. With the remake only really keeping two sections from the OG with heavy action and I’m 100% okay with that. Yes I am disappointed that they cut U3 in favor of renaming other enemies as UII & UIII. U3 was the most terrifying boss in the classic but he did serve as filler in the original so I can see why they would cut him from the game but I am holding out hope maybe he will make a return in the DLC for Separate Ways. Which brings me to my next gripe about the game and that is the cut side content (Separate Ways, Assignment Ada, Mercenaries). I know mercenaries will be in the game as free DLC on April 7th but it honestly should have been in the game on launch day but I can live without it for a couple weeks. Now with Separate Ways/Assignment Ada, these were completely cut from the game and as of right now Capcom has yet to confirm these as future DLC but with the help of data miners they have uncovered the files for Separate Ways so at least we know as of right now it’s about a 99% chance we will be getting that. Unfortunately it will probably be behind a paywall probably $20-$40. That is honestly a major L for capcom to release a RE4 Remake without all of the added content at launch. But the game alone makes up for it with how replayable the game is. The added challenges to the bonus shop and character customizations and a bunch of different challenge runs to really test your skills as a player. I’m not one to really use costumes in my Resident Evil games and I really don’t like that they added animal parts with special abilities (infinite ammo, extra knife damage, increase kick damage) I really don’t want to add cat ears and fox tails to Leon because it’s too goofy and makes you look like a furry. The game faithfully remade RE4 by keeping about 90% of the main campaign but expanding those areas to reach that 100% potential. The way they fleshed out Luis in the game and made him more involved in the story. You fighting Krauser in two separate knife only hand to hand combats and then fighting him in his mutated form. Ashley getting an overhaul where she isn’t as annoying as the original and she actually has amazing character development and grows as a person. I would love to see her return in a future title as an agent as she mentioned in the ending of the game. Now we get to Ada as a character… yes I wasn’t a fan of the VA, Capcom has an issue of not using the same VAs for their games. It’s like using the VA for Chris Redfield in Village, it’s the same VA as Carlos in RE3R. I don’t like how they manage their VAs for characters. Ada sounds too nasally with a clump in her throat. But she isn’t in the game for very much so it’s not going to hinder my review score for this. The combat feeling amazing with every gun sounding and feeling incredible. The parry mechanic being such an amazing addition to the game. Making you feel like a badass once you get the hang of it and being able to deflect anything in half a second making it muscle memory. I see people complaining that the aiming is too hard or the game is too difficult and for that, honestly it’s a skill issue. You need to practice it, you’re not going to be good at the game as soon as you pick up the controller. You have to adapt to the new play style of this REMAKE. if you want the original then go play the original and stop crying over stupid fake reasons. I only ran into one graphical error where the floor was not rendered in the courtyard and in the beginning of chapter 13 of the island. Restarted the game and they were back in and never saw that happen again. Only one frame drop issue in the area where Leon drops down in the underground spike trap area but that never happened to me again. The game runs fine and phenomenally on new gen systems and PC. If you’re having issues on your PS4 then honestly that’s the hardware you’re playing on
    Oh and if you’re mad you can’t see Ashley’s panties in the remake, go touch some grass and just go watch Ashley on Rule34 or wait for the nude mods you basement dwellers    … Expand

I will admit there were a few things the original did better then the remake. My favorite part of the game so far though, the stealth mechanic. Being able to sneak around the blind berserkers and knife um in the back, so satisfying. The changes to the boss fights were very interesting. They felt similar enough for me to understand what I needed to do and yet, at the same time. It was different enough to throw me off. Except for the fight with Salazar... That was very different, a little disappointed that we didn't get the transformation sequence for him but mehh. Honestly, my biggest complaint really, was the voice of Wesker. They've literally gotten a new voice for wesker every game Can we have DC Douglas back when they do RE5… Expand

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I legitimately had a blast playing through this game. For fans of the 2005 original, it spices up just about everything you know, while bringing a modern, less clunky, control scheme to the table, the experience feels like very fresh retelling of a classic, that I’d argue is possibly even better than the original. But for some, nostalgia means everything. However, the same thing is true for the previous remake as well. And for people who haven’t played the original, it does a fantastic job of telling the same story, without feeling predictable. Some have complained that a certain spy’s voice acting isn’t up to par, however that’s a matter of preference. Personally, I don’t mind the new VA, but she can sound flat at times. Nothing to much to complain about though. This series has had way worse voice acting. Of the 4 remakes made so far, if you had to play any of them, make it be this one.… Expand

    +Knife mechanics are a upgrade from the mechanics in the OG (In OG pro's learned to parry without the system, this is an expansion on it, Basically when the fun bug becomes a fun mechanic)

    +Movment is much more fluid, Less tank-like and feels more modern

    +Enviourment fidelity is a MASSIVE upgrade, A lot of recognizable spots with new twists.

    +The island section, which is arguably the weakest section in the OG, has been revamped a lot to make it MUCH stronger

    +Kept Everything the fans loved about the OG, such as the cheesy one-liners, suplex, melee, staggers, etc Even going as far as making the most well known bugs used by speedrunners into a optional reward/feature (Talking about the ditman glitch, you can earn a charm that references it and increases movement speed)

    +Fun details from the OG return too but adds on it, such as the Bell in the village you can ring early

    +They expanded on the lore in a very good way!

    +Serious replayability, Already on my 4th run, Unlocking all the side content is genuinely a lot of fun this time around, and challenging

    Don't let the fake Reviews change your mind

    People are too quick to show disappointment in little details that they forgo the bigger improvements, Really shows how some people are incapable to enjoy things like the old days.

    Yes there are flaws too,
    -Ada's VA
    -Leon doesn't scream "Action super hero" anymore and is more grounded in this version
    -Due to the point above, Moments were cut out, such as the laser room sequence
    -Both Leon and Ashley both pant like a dying dog for no reason, audibly annoying.
    -Mercenaries mode is delayed to 2 weeks after launch, Wich is in no way a "bad" thing, We were still given a full game, and Mercenaries is still free, It wasnt ready is all (Trust me, The files show that all the voice lines were not in the build we got on release)
    -"Separate Ways" was not included either but again, In the OG Re4, "Separate ways" wasn't a thing either, Wasn't untill the playstation port that it was released. Much like the main campaign in the remake, "Separate ways" will be fully fleshed out and expanded on it, again people are to judgmental and will harshly judge anything based off a whim.

    For $60 usd, you're getting a full game, even without the Mercenaries mode or "Separate ways" DLC
    But rest assured they're both coming, With Mercenaries being a free DLC released VERY close to the launch window. If you loved the OG you love this too. Unfortunately reviews on this site are being bombed, not talking about BOTH positives and negatives. mix that with the die-hard fans who cant stand the thought of their precious OG being touched (Context: I played RE4 since the gamecube days, even I love this remake) They're the kind of people who cant and wont even TRY to see the good in the remake, Its a shame.    … Expand

    AN ABSOLUTE BLAST AS THE 1ST TIME!!!

    RE4 Remake is exactly how I expected it to be, with its vast control and graphics improvements to the welcoming changes o it´s overall level design and deeper storytelling. Presentation: Graphically it can be as demanding as you want on PC, still on Xbox Series X and PS5 looks fantastic all the way. We also got redesigns for every character and    AN ABSOLUTE BLAST AS THE 1ST TIME!!!

    RE4 Remake is exactly how I expected it to be, with its vast control and graphics improvements to the welcoming changes o it´s overall level design and deeper storytelling.
    Presentation: Graphically it can be as demanding as you want on PC, still on Xbox Series X and PS5 looks fantastic all the way. We also got redesigns for every character and enemy (and ally) in game which makes some of your worst OG RE4 nightmares even worse. Great QoL improvements on menus, and a more coherent level design and a better connection between levels, makes this new experience as fresh and excellent as the OG.
    Story: While there is technically no changes on the story, it is great to see much deeper character development on some underrated faces, Ashley included. The way it is all presented in the new cutscenes makes much more sense rather than reading all the lore notes, which are still part of the game but they are more of complementary content rather that primarily, so the story is well explained throughout the game. Also there is definitely more punch in certain cutscenes that stand for more common and deeper human emotions.
    Gameplay: is just gratifying!! Movement has definitely much more weight just as we saw on past REmakes, adding some extras to make the whole experience fresher and edgy (in a good way). Modern controls feel ad hoc, responsive and more accessible to newcomers. The crouching stealth mechanic feels nice and intriguing as you can perform stealth executions with gory animations, and it doesn´t feel like i breaks the game´s pace. But if you want a more action-oriented experience, the parry mechanic is there for you (at a price). Parrys are so exciting to perform and the emergency stabs as QTEs are really satisfying but like I said it comes at a price: knifes´ durability (which you can overcome if you complete a certain side quest). Also, Ashley is waaaaay less annoying and more useful this time.
    Audio: Excellent overall, despite the voice actor changes. Thou Ada Wong´s voice feels a bi bland. The SFX had been improved significally and every firearm has a ton of punch! Every SFX feels gruesome, gory, and satisfying all the way from start to finish. The OST is simply as good as before and if you prefer to get the OG OST and sounds, I highly recommend you get the Deluxe edition!!!
    Content Quantity and Replay value: There is a ton of things to pick on the story as well to unlock after your first playthrough, a ton of exciting side quest which include simple fetch quests to optional formidable foes!! There is also a bunch of exploration, interesting puzzles for treasure hunt, so basically the game begs you to replay it a ton of times so you can get that precious Rank S+.

    Verdict: ER4 is my favorite RE of all time and his time, it´s remake makes it feel on par or better than the OG due to all its improvements and welcoming changes. It would be an understatement that this game is well crafted i it is a modern masterpiece just like the OG. Every aspect of this game made me feel like playing RE4 for the first time, just like back in 2005 so I have no complaints on squeezing it´s juice as much as I can.
    Also, the money for the DLC of this game is already spent!! Hope we see the Mercenaries and Separate Ways being added soon as it will be my perfect excuse to keep playing his game for months.    … Expand

There's also those who hate remakes and love the original one and think he's better at everything, but if you carefully look at the original one, there a couple things that are kind of cheesy, like Leon diverting lasers and Ashley geting trapped in a wall. Don't get me wrong, I love the original one but the remake can explore those ideas with a different perspective, it's like playing the same game from 2005 but everything is different, and it's one of the most wonderful feelings I have ever had.… Expand

They kept the cheesy one liners and overall story beats, but changed up how we encounter certain moments/enemies, which I LOVED. This is my favorite remake they've done yet, followed by RE:2 Remake.

The combat is so intense especially since the AI is actually smarter and they will surround you so you gotta move and figure out the best way to navigate and defeat your enemies. Every gun has much more punch to it now and the remake even improves Ashley’s gameplay you no longer have to worry about Ashley health anymore since there is no health bar for her anymore. The game completely re do environments and areas the game fixes a lot of the pacing issues from the original game if something is cut they replace it with something different. The knife system is much improved here you can parry almost everything while also your knife takes damage itself don’t worry though cause you can find other knives in the environment that breaks much more easier but use those before using your combat knife. You can even stealth kill now there’s even more lore this time around I was so interested in the files they tell a lot of backstory even characters have much more growth here. The only issue with this remake is Ada she’s very underutilized and the actress doesn’t fit ada style at all she sounds very boring here also you’ll have to wait for dlc for her story now. Other than that this remake is masterful and unique and I think both games can exist now on their own.… Expand

Para ficar perfeito só tá faltando lançarem o separate ways espero que venha logo mais porque é a única coisa que está faltando nesse remake a visão da Ada nesse jogo. Para quem está sentindo falta do inimigo u3 fique tranquilo porque ele deve aparecer na campanha da Ada, o inimigo u3 não fazia muito sentido na campanha principal, ele era um inimigo muito aleatório na campanha original e agora na campanha do remake faz muito mais sentido a linha do tempo que criada pela Capcom onde os inimigos tem um lote maior e mais detalhado e bem explicado e u3 não fazia parte disso então ele foi um excelente corte um acerto da Capcom.… Expand

    The story of the game is a mediocre story, the gameplay is very enjoyable and attractive, in terms of visuals, it is equal to Cross Gen 2023 games and has a stunning visual, the main boss fights are very similar to each other. The sound design of the game is wonderful, the enemies have a good variety and only one new type of enemy has been added to the remake compared to the original version.

    Resident Evil 4 Remake not only does right by its original source of inspiration, but it also sets a high bar for what modern day remakes can be. All components of the story have been finetuned into a more well-thought out package, and that’s before mentioning the game’s full use of today’s graphical prowess to deliver a more terrifying interpretation of rural Spain. The core gameplay also retains what made it so great back in the day, but with modern amenities such as a parrying system, quick-select for weapons and the ability to run. And despite the new improvements, the increased aggressiveness of the enemies ensures that the game never feels like a cakewalk. I don’t know who still needs to be convinced at this point, but Resident Evil 4 is a masterpiece that I cannot recommend enough.
