    Ein perfektes Spiel mit richtig coolem Gameplay, guter Grafik, insgesamt ein tolles Abenteuer. meiner Meinung nach noch besser als Resi 4 von damals.

    With this game, Capcom proves that as of 2023, they are one of the best, most professional and talented developers of all time.

    This Remake is everything i wanted and then more. I'm fairly certain, that this will be very successful. Maybe i'm wrong, but i have a feeling that this game is something, that even people who usually don't play horror games, would buy. It's just so well done.

It's basically same logic that goes for quality games like Red Dead Redemption, that even people who usually don't play open-world, would still try it.

    World design was perfection, music/atmosphere/rain were all great, most new boss designs were phenomenal and voice acting for both Leon and Ashley was solid. And yeah, new Ashley is amazing, i had no idea, that it's even possible. I never liked Ashley, but in this game, she is great.

    Played on PC and PS5.    … Expand

    A big amount of wow!

    I knew that this game was gonna be coming out and plus I'm a big Resident Evil fan so I just had to get it. And damnnnnnn it's totally worth it!!! It brings back nostalgia from when I was a teenager from when the original first came out, the game play is just amazing, I like it how they made it a tad darker to suit the game, the graphics are top notch.

    This is most obvious GOTY of all time! As a Remake, it's amazing. As a standalone modern video game, it's amazing. It's fun, it's scary, it has action, it has horror. It's not just copy+paste "new graphics on old game", nope. This is, in many ways, expanded and updated version of RE4. I would say, 99% of the new addions and changes are absolutely welcomed and well done. Graphically itThis is most obvious GOTY of all time! As a Remake, it's amazing.

This is, in many ways, expanded and updated version of RE4. I would say, 99% of the new addions and changes are absolutely welcomed and well done. Graphically it literally looks like "next-gen". Rain/storm looks great and makes it obvious that pre-release footage was just some "beta" stages.

    Obviously no game is perfect, i could always complain about something, anything (that goes for any game btw). But i almost don't want to, it's just as close to perfection as modern remake could be. Dead Space Remake was solid, very good. But this one is next level compared to that one.

    To bring out some negatives, as a die hard RE4 fan, i was obviously disappointed that U-3 was cut. U-3 had very interesting design and fight was fun and scary and would have worked perfectly in this new remake. I'm not really sure why the cut it, but i'm hopeful that maybe they are holding it for dlc.

    BUT that didn't break the game for me at all, everything else was great, most boss fights were amazing and expanded content helped as well. Atmosphere was absolutely flawless on all three locations (village,castle,island). Voice acting (for the most part) was great. My biggest surprise was Ashley, she was perfect! I was never huge Ashley fan, in the original she was extremely annoying, but in the remake she almost felt like new character (in a good way). Leon's voice acting was solid, as expected. Overall script/dialogue was also nice, i especially liked moments between Leon and Ashley.

    At the end of the day, i don't even care if it wins any awards, all i can say is, that it's very good game and that's the most important thing. But when development team puts so much passion into a project like this, i think it should be rewarded.

    Definitely, without a doubt, the best remake ever even better than re2

    Changes compared to the original version: the game becomes scarier and the game environment becomes darker and the elements of psychological fears are added - the crafting system is added - the stealth system is added - in this version you feel much more like you are in a Spanish environment and many things It is    Definitely, without a doubt, the best remake ever even better than re2

    And in the end, Ashley is very attractive and this time it is really worth saving her    … Expand

    RE4 remake succeed on keeping this franchise alive. Altough the base is the same, the improvements brought to the table are simply outstanding.

    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.

    Overall it holds together very well, and even though I played the whole game in two days with minimal sleep, I didn't even think about taking a break for a while. [Issue#327]

    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.
