    I honestly couldn’t imagine how capcom can improve on an all time classic and game design perfection like RE4 but they did the impossible with this remake, and a huge focus on visual upgrades which is really good but to put this remake in the same category as those remakes would be a disservice to the monumental achievement that the developers did with this game.

    I thing is important for everyone that is getting into this game to avoid pointless criticism and the toxic fans that are harassing ada wong VO just because it didn’t fit their expectations or taste.
    I personally thing that every character was remade in a better way and most of the changes were necessary to fit modern times.
    Gameplay, sound design and graphics are fantastic but i think the performance can be improved to work properly in every console.
    PS5 and xbox series have a lot of issues.
    In my experience with the ps5 version, I found problems with textures and frames dropping often in every mode available.

    Aside from a few questionable omissions, overall I’d say this is the greatest remake of all time for one of the greatest video games of all time.

    It was just the right balance of keeping the important stuff intact whilst changing a few things to freshen up the experience.

    I felt like a kid and like it was 2005 all over again. ☺️

    This is the best remake I've ever played, this along with Final Fantasy VII is how a REMAKE should be done, faithful to the original, while adding extra content

    Simply AMAZING!!

    Can't wait to play The Mercenaries again!

    Amazing remake! Possibly one of the best games Capcom has ever made. Makes me so happy that good Resident Evil is finally back. Hopefully they do RE5 Remake next, because nobody wants this boring and pointless Code Veronica.

They’ve also improved and added on to some areas in the game, while practically leaving other areas untouched. Of course, this game’s graphics can’t be ignored either. They’re absolutely gorgeous, and it runs surprisingly well (for me, at least. I’ve heard others have had performance so don’t take my word for it. The way the characters are written have been improved from the original as well— the most notable changes being with Ashley. Much more likable and less annoying than the original. Combat has also been improved on, especially the close combat. A new mechanic with parrying has been added, where if you press a specific button at the right time, you can parry *almost* any attack and follow up with a kick or bullets to the brain. Of course there are some exceptions, like with some bosses, projectiles (although you can parry axes that are thrown at you and arrows that are shot at you, surprisingly) and of course some attacks like grabs. Capcom made this a great remake with greatly improving the original, also keeping and polishing the same values it had while, on top of that, removing some of the less enjoyable aspects the original had (like those quick time events, which were super unnecessary in my opinion.)… Expand

    It's so obvious that most, if not all of these losers who review bomb this great game, have never even played the remake. Wouldn't surprise me, if most of them didn't even like OG. This is truly pathetic, thankfully this remake was huge success, so nobody really cares about these losers and they are minority anyway, most fans clearly like this remake.

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.

    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.
