At the same time, 4 chan trolls (and other trolls as well) have wasted their time, making fake Metacritic accounts and giving the game 0/10. It's extremely easy to make multiple Metacritic accounts. 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

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Excelente jogo. Vale muito a pena você jogar esse Remake. Uma ótima experiência. Foi feito com muito carinho e a Capcom merece os parabéns por esse Remake que finalmente está fiel a sua obra original, diferente do Resident Evil 3 remake, o residente Evil 4 remake está excelente e muito fiel então vale muito a pena você comprar o jogo porque tenho certeza que você não vai se arrepender. 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

    I thoughroughly enjoyed playing through this remake. In many ways the original game defined modern action adventure 3rd person gameplay so it was interesting to see what capcom would do here. Ultimately it plays better, looks better and has the same corny 90's vibe that gives the series it's identity. The performance felt great with my vrr display in resolution mode.

    Anyone who is surprised by this low user score, just know that there is no real hate for this game. For example, on Steam it's "Overwhelmingly positive" with over 12 000 reviews. What happened here, seems to be typical review bombing/double fake accounts giving 0's. This game is phenomenal, buy it, play it. Games that are this good release rarely, don't miss it.

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.    … Expand

    Capcom made one of the greatest games ever made, even better. The first thing you notice is the overhauled graphics, the game is dripping in detail and atmosphere, and it runs flawlessly. It is not just a simple reskin, the game has been remade from the ground up and it shows. It looks and feels like a fresh AAA title from 2023, with all the charm of the original, and some.

    Such a masterpiece. I don’t know why this game is review bombed with low ratings, they don’t have any strong arguments why this game would be bad. This game really improves on the previous game and successfully translated to modern gaming. It has been a long time since I enjoyed a game this much (probably Red Dead 2 was the last I remember)

    Game of the year for me if you count remakes.

Also, the remake of this lovely title has very good and modern graphics and is very satisfying in terms of graphics. The design of most of the puzzles is really impressive and can really engage you.
    After pointing out the good points of the game, let's go to the weaknesses of the game, which made me deduct two points from the game. One of the first elements of the Resident Evil series is the sense of stress and dread of the game, which players always expected in different versions, but unfortunately, sometimes most games went towards action. The point I want to say is that some of the chapters of this title are too action-packed, reminiscent of Re5 and Re6!
    Unfortunately, like the process that Capcom took for the remake of the second game, the original soundtracks are in DLC form which is extremely ridiculous! It has also placed two other Deluxe weapons, which is really an insult to the audience. The other contents of the deluxe version are not convincing and are not worth buying at all. (Unless the DLC of Ada Wong will be released in the future)
    Now let's talk about technical problems. During several times of playing the game, I saw annoying frame drops and slow loading of textures, which I hope will be fixed in the next updates.
    The issue that was very disturbing in the original version was the very weak characterization of the antagonists, which is still present in the remake! (Except for the Jack Krauser character, who has no problems)    … Expand

    The Original RE:4 was very much a product of the early 2000s. It was cheesy, over the top, and irreverent. So seeing something like a small man with a French aristocratic hat throwing hissy fits wasn't out of place. Nor was it out of place to see Ada Wong look like a cabaret singer moonlighting as a spy in a long slip dress with high heels running around outdoors.

So seeing something like a small man with a French aristocratic hat throwing hissy fits wasn't out of place. Nor was it out of place to see Ada Wong look like a cabaret singer moonlighting as a spy in a long slip dress with high heels running around outdoors. It wasn't odd to hear her say her lines like she was just plucked from the non-sex scenes of a porn movie.

    Fast forward to today, and RE:4 is a very different game. It's much less irreverent. It's much less set in the current comedic climate of the early 2000s; its humor is all but gone, and it's more grounded. There's a more serious tone, and things make a little more sense.

    And in this shift to a more serious take on the story, a more grounded one, they gave her a more practical outfit that is still sexy, and she says her lines like a normal person talks.
    But for the life of me, I can't figure out why that was the sticking point. All the characters changed. They were all adjusted to meet this current vision of the game.
    But because Ada Wong isn't in Jessica Rabbit cosplay, talking like a cam model, all these fans harass the actress (who was acting under the direction of the DIRECTOR), and whose character was designed by the art team under the creative director's vision.

    So yeah, things that had NOTHING to do with her, these fans drove her to delete her social media accounts. Then you have to come on here and pitch a hissy fit that a side character doesn't dress, talk and act like their favorite OnlyFans model.

So my hopes for this Remake were, that it improves on that front, becoming more Resi feeling, more creepy, more survival horror. I wanted the Remake to make me finally become a fan or even love Resi 4. Well, as you can see on my score, this mission was successfully accomplished. Even though they cut a good amount of locations and even bosses from the game, i don't mind it. I can't say that i miss the cut stuff too much. They improved the game on so many fronts and added so many new places that fit perfectly into the game,that the cut stuff isn't really missed. For the sake of not making this Review a 100 pages book, i'll just say this.
    It's very faithful to the original game, it just presents it with massively improved graphics and sound, much better creepy moody atmosphere, much more story pieces, especially more background to characters, added side missions for extra rewards, but overall, it's still the game you remember and probably loved, just much better. Like it should be. That's what a great Remake should do. In my opinion, the Remake is better than the original, because it's a massively improved version of it, making things that were terrible much better, so the experience is just much more intense and much more fun. After this Remake i'm definitely a fan of this game now, i would even say i love it now and it has become one of my favorite ones in the series. What is insane that the Remake actually accomplished that. This just shows what a good Remake this actually is. Capcom did it once again. Good Job.    … Expand

    Resident Evil 4 Remake is an absolute delight. Veterans of the original will love the changes and newcomers can now appreciate just how good this game actually is. Capcom continues the trend of keeping the series fresh in our minds. I cannot wait for the next new entry as well as what remake they do next. Almost guaranteed we will see RE5 next, but Capcom please listen to your fans and give us that Code Veronica remake we so rightly desire. Regardless, fans of the series are eating so good right now.
