Resident Evil 4 Remake=A Better RE5

[patriotplayer90]

The first half of the game was excellent-one of the most immersive experiences I've had in years. There was a fresh yet nostalgic feeling to the locales which was thrilling to me a RE4 fan. But then the environments become dull, the silliness overtakes the scariness, and it devolves into a solid yet forgettable experience which felt more like an action game.

The original Resident Evil 4 was also action-heavy in the second half, but the atmosphere and fight-or-flight tank controls maintained the tension that the remake doesn't. It felt like something was missing. By the time I reached the final boss, I had no desire to feel the thrill of defeating him and simply resorted to using the RPG. At the rate it was going, I was ready to get it over with.

For the record, the only redeeming factors of RE5 were the great RE4 gameplay (which they did their best to screw up) and co-op. At its best, RE4 remake absolutely destroys it. But then a significant portion lacks the survivor-horror aspects to offset the goofiness or lack of a compelling story. Mercenaries is great though!

RE5 is awesome.

It's almost as if it's based on Resident Evil 4

I just replayed RE4 2005, the 3rd half of the game - the island, has to be THE worst chapter of any RE game. It was bland, insanely action focused , literally 0 puzzles, just hoards of military gonados. R4make improves that section by a tenfold.

I still think RE2R is best.

I have mentioned like 10 times already, but Capcom should learn from RE2R.

EDIT: Except they should find a better face model for Claire, I guess. I don't like the look of nuClaire and nuJill.

Leon's babyface in r2make isn't much better. Also, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wUgKJ-VzIA&t=643s

It has a TON of problems.

I mean, I don't care much for the male faces.
And while RE2 has problems (not so much from what I play), it's probably the true-est RE since, I dunno, Code Veronica or REmake.

i don't disagree, but co-op play with a friend is what made RE5 really fun to me and gives longevity to the game

RE2R definitely has problems, but calling it trash is way too harsh especially with how well made the game is, also I'm sorry but if any review of a game is about tearing it down and it's 2 hours long, it gives the impression that it's mostly gonna be things that really don't matter in the long run but that's just my experience

It's definitely the most justified remake.

I really enjoyed RE4, but it felt more like a fancy coat of paint (albeit a good game) and continuation of a line of remakes rather than a passionate or necessary one.

The only thing I dislike about RE2R, and other REs in general is the intentional nuking of the combat. RE4's combat was excellent, and has influenced countless games. I never understood the decision to revert back to generic combat with bullet sponge enemies. The ones in the originals were due to technological limitations and general age of the game, not because they were superior

Wrong. RE4 is not survival horror. It's a ridiculous action game. Original games were pure survuval horror with tough enemies and resource management.
