FOV a little off?
I never get motion sickness from games or anything. However, this is making my head kinda hurt just watching it. It feels oddly zoomed in and having motion blur off barely helps. Didn't have this issue in RE2 or RE3. Am I just bugging out right now or is this FOV in a weird position?

They put a FOV similar to the original RE4. It serves to increase the clustrophobia. If they had changed that too, they would have found the old angry fans.

U can adjust the fov

The FOV is definitely weird. The slider ranges from 90 to 110 by default. 130 feels more comfortable to me, but you can notice it's a lot wider in the intro section. As soon as you crouch under the barbed wire, it zooms in and stays closer overall. So the game plays with the FOV a bit and that makes it feel wonky, and makes numerical values on the slider inaccurate.

Yeah, the FOV feels absolutely terrible.

Original RE4 was a technical mess and if anyone really cares, there's no reason they couldn't have made this optional. "It was bad before" is a bad excuse.

I agree. I can't enjoy a game unless I can have a high FOV like this

I have a solution for your issue:

I maxed the fov setting, turned off depth of field, and lens distortion off. Looks better now.

Depth of field is terrible for this game, its like a bad eyesight simulator and makes everything not right in front of you blurry

Even at the max FoV the game allows, aiming in felt more cramped than the OG to me.

In addition to increasing FOV you can turn off the camera wobble.

I maxed the FOV and it didn't help much. I will try turning off those other settings though and see if it gets better

The FoV in the original game was 45 while aiming, and 50 when not.

I think it might be the bobbing thing right at the bottom of the camera options. I forgot how they called it. I didn't have motion sickness with the demo but playing the thing later with that turned off helped a great deal with the gameplay.

Alternatively if It is indeed the fov. Wait for REframework to update, that has fov modifieres for all RE games on that engine.

It's absolutely terrible specially ads fov. It's unplayable right now, just like RE8 Village third person.

If you are a mouse player, it's impossible to aim. Studios and devs always forget that PC gamers still play games to!!!!

Yes, this is RE8, but it's exactly the same on RE4R

It's deliberate so it makes it more tense since it hides enemies in your periphery well. Has caused a bit of motion sickness unfortunately.

Sounds like REFramework currently (at least for the Demo) has it's drawbacks, but this video made me aware just how far the game zooms in when aming. For some reason I han't noticed it while playing the demo.
