O jogo e muito bom os gráficos são ótimos mesmo não tendo um console pra jogar o jogo eu curti muito as gameplay dos Youtubers e gostei muito das mecânicas novas do jogo e me trouxe uma lembrança do PS2 quando chamava pra jogar com amigos e tomando sustos ao jogar em fases mais tenebrosas … Expand

It’s the best game ever made in the whole history , Whatever games come before or after it, this game will remain the best Whether in terms of story, graphics, resources, or characters, it will always remain the best, and I believe that it deserves to be the game of the year without a competitor. I expect that most of us had concerns about the release of a remake of the game because it was an ideal game that does not need a remake, but this remake made us take the game more.… Expand

    The best remake or remaster from the franchise by far, great gameplay, great atmosphere, great graphics and just an overall great experience for new and old players alike. Note: I think maybe some will say the game lost some of its horror, but I think it's just the nostalgia speaking.

    Solid remake that improves on already fantastic original and makes it even better. Now, whenever gamers new to RE series play RE4, they will always play the Remake first, because there's simply no reason to back to these brown graphics and awful controls, also OG has a lot cringe dialogue, some of it is fun, but some of it is extremely outdated.

    Original was a absolutely phenomenal when it released in 2005, but this remake is somehow even better version of that game, so i would recommend playing this remake instead of OG.

    Remake improves lots of things, like level design, graphics, overall atmosphere, dialogue, voice acting (especially for Ashley), also movement is about million times better in remake.

    Amazing remake, even better than RE2 remake, but mostly because RE4 is just objectively better game, RE2 is solid too of course, but not on RE4 level. Also thanks god nobody takes those negative reviews seriously on this site, real RE fans just laugh at these pathetic 0/10 reviews. This remake already sold millions of copies and was massive success.

    Well done remake, just as good as Dead Space remake or even Final Fantasy 7 remake, same level of detail and dedication! I'm also glad that 90% of the fans seem to agree, that this remake is very good and in most aspects even better than the OG. Of course there's always this small minority that complains about everything, but nobody cares about these losers lol.

    This person even states that he never cared for OG RE4 or even played it and that this is not what he considers RE. Like what?? This is the most popular RE game of all time. And then to say that RE7 (game that feels more like Outlast, than Resident Evil) is more Resident Evil, is just next level ridiculous. This review honestly made me speechless, i had no idea that people like this even exist. I'm serious. RE7, while yes it brought back horror, it hardly ever felt like actual RE game. It was boring hide and seek Outlast clone. Most people like RE games where you actually fight back and fight epic bosses. RE7 bosses are objectively worst in entire series. It was never truly scary either, most of the time, it was just annoying. And RE2, while it was very solid remake, it doesn't hold a candle to both OG RE4 or RE4R. It was always inferior game and that's okay, not everything can be Final Fantasy 7 and RE4 was Resident Evil's FF7 and always will be.

    Both are great, but RE4 will be ALWAYS objectively more innovative and better RE game than RE2. End of story!    … Expand

    Resident Evil was never meant to be some random horror game. It has it's iconic characters, locations, themes, bosses and so on.

    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.
