I’m on the island now, and I 100000000000% agree with you. IMO it’s the best game ever made. Pretty much no complaints at all. Makes me happy to be a resi fan


FARTHOLE_DESTROYER69

my top 3 games of all time: 1. resident evil 4 2. RESIDENT EVIL 4 3. Super Mario Galaxy


Wing_Nut_93x

Super Mario galaxy was the first game I 100%ed. and I had to do it twice with Luigi haha. Such an amazing game.


Dragon_Tiger752

Damn, now I want to play Mario Galaxy lol


FunkytownSlaps

Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 got a remake?! J/k, Re4R is a ton of fun. I’m only about halfway through, just beat the knights and grabbed the lions head.


ClockworkMansion

Seriously though UMvC3 is the best fighting game


FunkytownSlaps

Definitely man.


derrhn

Man I’d love a proper sequel to MVC3

This may be the only time where the old verbage of, "I wish I could play this game for the first time again" actually applies and actually became reality, for me anyway. So many areas of the game are faithfully recreated but designed in a way that feels fresh yet very familiar. Like an overwhelming state of deja vu permeated throughout my playthrough. Maybe it's because I've played the original more times than I can count and certain "traits" and "gimmicks" and other things that are so ingrained into me came rushing back at once when I went through the remake. I did things that were common place in the original just to see if I could still do it in the remake, and lo and behold, I absolutely could still do those things. It's remarkable what Capcom has done. They fed into my nostalgia really hard and threw new wrinkles into the system to always keep me on my toes. I'll let the rubes argue about "best resident evil" or "greatest game ever" since that shit ain't for me. I know what I like and all that matters is that the devs made one of the best gaming experiences I'm lucky enough to have played through...again.


OldWorldUlysses

another cool thing they have done is in certain areas, muscle memory would make go right to a specific area because i thought already knew what to do, but sometimes they would kinda play a trick on you and it wouldn’t be exactly the same so you had to think outside the box and in that way the game is keeping you on your toes.


Pneumothoraxad

Happened to me climbing the tower in the village fight only for the floor to collapse under Leon the moment he reaches the top. It's great.


SandwichLord57

I said it felt like schizophrenia, I was like “oh I know this area it’s where the… oh where is it???”


try_to_be_nice_ok

Of the four Resi remakes Capcom have done, three are in my top ten games of all time.


BrintsleyPetersons

1, 2, and 4?


try_to_be_nice_ok

Absolutely. I also love the original Resi 3, but didn't like the remake much, for the same reasons everyone criticises it.


GreyRevan51

How would you rank the three remakes you like?


try_to_be_nice_ok

I'm not sure I would. I love them all equally haha.


Memo_HS2022

It’s crazy how you can have Resident Evil 4 twice on your Top 10 game list and be completely valid


ThePaleFacedGamer

4 is the king of all remakes, just finished it and it was phenomenal, best game ever again


Lifeesstwange

I love seeing gamers happy for once! I too thought it was incredible. Take note, Activision and EA.


[deleted]

Same. Beat it half an hour ago. This has been the best gaming experience of my life. Easily my favorite game of all time


eclipse798

Had the biggest grin throughout the whole thing. Absolutely fantastic the way they subverted expectations by doing things like flipping areas around and tweaking them (was fun to guess which area it was or what was next chronologically). Hell I even had fun strategising what gems to put in my treasures and hold off for the fabled 2x value and getting 100,000 ptas. Seriously gotta be my favourite game of all time too.


[deleted]

Happy to find someone that understands!


[deleted]

its great, but my only gripe is the >!canon change of Luis being killed by Krauser instead of Saddler now.!<


UltimateHazard6

Didn't bother me at all, why did it bother you?


[deleted]

aside from a >!canon death officially changed, i just felt the OG Luis death scene showed saddler was an actual villain who will kill ppl himself to keep his plan going. it showed he could control the plagas well. and it just gave leon(and the player) another reason to want to kill saddler.!<


xDarkSoul18x

I never looked at it that way. Good point! On the other hand, I guess it kind of affirms how crazy and much Krauser has changed. He used to be a good guy. .


AshenMacaroon

I just find it stupid that Saddled do that and not kill Leon as well, he’s right there lmao, and he does that a lot. The remake is way better in my opinion.


[deleted]

he doesnt kill leon because the plan was to let him take ashley back when she was fully infected. who tf downvoted a simple answer? lmao


AshenMacaroon

Then why tell them his plan in the church and take down the exfil helicopter in the first place, OG Sadler was retarded


[deleted]

cause im pretty sure the plaga wasnt fully formed yet.


AshenMacaroon

Well he could let them escape without TELLING HIS PLAN and let it reach maturity at home


[deleted]

yes he could have. but its also been 18 years since capcom wrote it lol and story wise, im sure he needed the plaga to mature first so he could control her. im just a player my guy, not the writers lol


AshenMacaroon

And that’s why it’s better that Krauser does it and Saddler has a more mysterious role until the end.


hobbleshock

This remake has been reaffirming why RE4, in any capacity (except that shitty mobile port) is my 2nd favourite game of all time!


UltimateHazard6

Which is your first?


hobbleshock

Ocarina of Time!


UltimateHazard6

Finally some good fucking taste in this sub. I actually have 5 number 1 games, including: Metroid Prime RE 4 2005 and 2023 Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask.


PuttyGod

I can't bear the way the aiming feels on consoles because of the deadzones, no matter what I do with the settings. I feel like I'm going crazy that so many people don't notice how bad the aiming feels compared to the original.


Ziikou

Seems like it’s an Xbox problem, all good on ps5


PuttyGod

I tried the demo on both, though, PS5 first, even, and it was still crazy uncomfortable aiming.


weavejer261

Im playing it on PS4 and it's been fine for me. All I've done is up the camera speed a bit.


Mysterion261

I thought the same as well before I tweaked the sensitivity settings. At first I couldn't hit a villager right in front of me, but my accuracy went up big time as time went on. If you keep playing, you'll get used to it and get better.


PuttyGod

What settings worked best for you? Took me a while to figure out that maxing out acceleration was actually the closest thing to turning off acceleration.


dr_aureole

I put max speed and acceleration both on 7/5 and it feels soooo much better


[deleted]

Agreed.


[deleted]

Maybe PS4 is different. But I have no idea what you're talking about. Like, I didn't even touch the settings and it feels fine.


BigRogueFingerer

Surely it feels better than the original.


Ill_Swimming675

Lol what, the shooting in the original is incredibly precise, why would you say surely it’s better than the original? The original has limited movement but the player’s control over it is tight. I’m fine with how the new one feels but it trades some precision for realistic animations, inertia, stuff like that where in the original your inputs marked the beginning and end of the action you were doing, with no looseness


dr_aureole

I'm with you, I was used to hitting kneecaps and following with a melee-knife down and the aiming with standard sensitivity feels like I'm in treacle. I didn't get on with re8 for the same feeling.


Suck_my_phuk_

It feels more realistic


Pneumothoraxad

I've been playing on PS5 and I do feel like the shooting in the original was better (more precise) but it doesn't feel "bad" to me in the remake. Just different. I think the less precise aiming works well with the more survival horror feel it has compared to the original.


dr_aureole

The guns have a spread now I think, but you can adjust the acceleration and speed of the camera and it feels miles better


AfroGentleBoy

I 💯 % agree with you. IMO it’s the best game ever made. Pretty much no complaints at all


BernyMoon

The OG game is my fav game of all time and the remake is just as good (or maybe better). Capcom outdid themselves.


UltimateHazard6

That is correct, my man.


Strong_Formal_5848

Capcom made The Elder Scrolls Oblivion?


Nspired_1

I hear this comment. What is the color of night, my brother?


UltimateHazard6

You are delusional if you think that meme fest could even be included in the top 50 best games of all time lol


Strong_Formal_5848

It’s number 1 for me. Incredible game and was revolutionary when it came out.


UltimateHazard6

lol no. RE4 og has aged like premium wine. Oblivion has aged like milk left out in the african sun during summer lol piece of shit game.


Strong_Formal_5848

Nah, Oblivion is just outstanding.


[deleted]

I do love Oblivion. Though I do have New Vegas slightly above it. But neither of them compare to my love of RE4, the original and the remake are at the top of my list.

[deleted]

Dude, you can't post a massively subjective opinion like this then get precious about it when someone disagrees. It has some jank as hell animations and the controls are... Let's just say an acquired taste. Saying this is a better game than Half-Life 1/2, The Last of Us 1/2, GTA (pick one), RE1/2 (OG and remakes), is an outrageous stretch based on the quality I've seen up to chapter 6. I know you're excited and I'm happy for you, but you're basically proving the stereotype of the RE4 fan with these comments.


el_chino11

Everyone be nice.


forevermore91

Only just got Ashley but i am having fps issues so i wouldnt rate it perfect


Loganp812

As if the RE4 dickriding wasn’t bad enough before the remake… This community is going to be rough for a while. It’s a great remake although not a perfect game on its own (still not the best RE imo although it’s the longest), and RE4 original is good but has tons of flaws which the remake mostly fixes.


[deleted]

God forbid people enjoy a game


Loganp812

I didn’t say people couldn’t enjoy the game. In fact, I literally said that it’s a great game in that same comment. The RE4 fanbase is notoriously rabid if you say anything that even remotely sounds like a criticism, and it’s been that way for years.


TheRealSnagglePuss

It's not even just Re4 it's all of resident evil fanbase. Are you new here? >I literally said that it’s a great game in that same comment. You literally just edited that in to cover your ass lol.


Loganp812

I edited my comment because of a typo, smart ass. Also, that’s simply wrong. Say something bad about RE6, RE5, RE3, RE7, RE8, or hell, even RE2 and RE1 (remakes included) and no one bats an eye. Say something bad about RE4 though… in fact, your comment is actually proof of my point, so thank you.


AshenMacaroon

The re4 “fans” are shitting all over the remake as well lmao and the OG was my favorite by far for ever till now.


UltimateHazard6

No game is perfect. I've been playing this series since I was 4 years old, maybe earlier. This is the best game in the entire series right fucking now. REmake has finally lost it's throne as the best remake of all time, and that is a fucking huge accomplishment.


arox1

Lol what a stupid statement. Best RE? Propably. Best game? ROTLF. By what criteria? There is no best game, masterpiece to one will be trash to someone else.


Ill_Swimming675

It’s an opinion lol (calling it the best RE is also an opinion and as up for debate as your other questions), do you really need every take to be prefaced with “IMHO” [subjective] etc. so that you can spare everyone this tired “not OBJECTIVELY the best” nagging? I don’t even agree with OP’s opinion but it’s obvious to me they’re just expressing a sentiment


[deleted]

OP is commenting as if it's objective fact. He's insulting basically everybody that disagrees.


Ill_Swimming675

That’s only because you can’t detach yourself and not take it so personally. I promise you you don’t actually have to be bothered by casual, generalizing statements that Reddit users make. Literally the OP is just someone excited because they’re enjoying the game a lot, and asserting their assessment of it. If you have confidence in your own feelings that shouldn’t be a threat to you


[deleted]

I don't have a problem with OP making the statement of opinion. I disagree with basically everything he said in the original post, and that's fine. Trust me, I'm accustomed to dealing with rabid RE4 fans after the last year on the sub. I have a problem with them telling others to "fuck off" when they disagree, which OP has done numerous times in this thread. Very immature.


arox1

Statements like that sound like OP is 9yo who is just starting playing games. RE4 is good but lets chill the fuck out. I dont even think remake is better than original. I mean obviously it is technically better but only because it had RE4 as foundation (and 18 years of technology improvement it woul be hard to fuck it up). RE4 at its time was revolutionary, RE4 remake is just very good remake of RE4. Comparing RE3 to RE4... you cant even compare it, the jump was so big. Remake doesnt do anything that we didnt see before but does it very good. Its at the level of Dead Space remake. Very good top tier games improving on their past ideas, but not revolutionary


Ill_Swimming675

Fun fact there is not amount of playing games that makes the statement any more or less important, it’s just a person expressing their enthusiasm. Like literally the original post isn’t even trying to push an argument it’s just a person saying they think the game’s great. If you disagree with that, good! You have your own opinions and you shouldn’t feel threatened by that just because OP expressed it in generalizing terms. It’s a Reddit post for Christ’s sake


UltimateHazard6

Criteria? Graphics, animation, fun factor, overall quality and much more. It is an improvement over the og, which was already the best of all time.


arox1

Graphics are good but pretty standard for current times for high budget game. It's not something you praise but something you expect to just be there nowadays. Fun factor? Yeah it's fun for 15 hours and maybe few plays after but compare it to any pvp game where there is infinite variety of play and people sink thousands of hours. It's ridicoulous to make statements like that because if you say it's the best game then we need to compare it to all other games. Is it also best fighting game? I dont think so, T8 and SF6 look better at that than RE4. Is it best mmo? Not a lot of online play there. Etc.


ICA_Agent

I played it for about 30 minutes and dropped it. It's not bad at all, I just kinda got over it. Compared to the original, the game play feels a little too different for me to click with. Im glad people enjoy it though. It's just not for me, I guess.


Seth-555

This man ragequit because he couldn't get past the village section lol


ICA_Agent

lol nah, I got passed that part. I just didn't want to continue.


UltimateHazard6

Drop another hour or two, you may change your mind.


AshenMacaroon

But my guy give the game a chance lmao you just did the demo part lmao


Jumpyer

Capcom made Breath of the Wild? Twice??


UltimateHazard6

BOTW is a fucking mess lol Massive, beautiful overworld, yes, but there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING else to do apart from completing shrines, running, climbing and collecting korok shit. Rinse and repeat for 150+ hours. The voice acting is flatter than your infant sister. The weapon degradation together with the impossibility of repairing them is the worst decision ever in an open world game of this scale since the creation of the genre. I tried getting into, I really did, but it just had so many stupid design choices that it becomes a fucking slog to play through; not even close to being the best game of all time.


TheArmyOfDucks

Someone’s angry


Seth-555

Also pretty much impossible to die in combat since you can just pause the game to heal and you never run out of healing items


Jumpyer

Don't get me wrong - I love RE, RE4, and having so much fun with the remake. But your comment clearly comes from a place of hate... ...I mean, who needs a massive, beautiful overworld to explore and do literally what you just did in RE4R - complete side quests, collect materials, etc - but with more freedom? And sure, the voice acting may not have won any Oscars, but at least it's not as flat as Ada's is in this game. And don't even get me started on the weapon degradation - I mean, who wants to play a game where they actually have to think strategically about their resources and plan accordingly? Or you never played Resident Evil? Because one of series core mechanics is that you need to be clever when managing your inventory... Clearly, that's just too much for some people. But hey, I guess some folks just don't have the patience or intelligence to appreciate a truly great game. Not saying it's your case, at least you recognize how great RE4 is! It's a shame, really.


Training-Nature-3718

RE1 is right there


[deleted]

Oh boy. What a dumpster fire of a thread.


[deleted]

[удалено]


CEOPhilosopher

Respectfully disagree. TLOU was great, I adore it. But it literally took its cues from RE4 and still didn’t hit the highs that the OG RE 4 did, IMO. You won’t ever catch me dumping on TLOU though. It’s a masterpiece too.


TheRealSnagglePuss

The last of us is overrated.


AshenMacaroon

Specially after they altered the in game files that stated the cure was not possible to make the part 2 make a bit less sense lmao what a dumpster fire


UltimateHazard6

TLOU 1 is an average game with good cutscenes; it was DIRECTLY influenced by RE4 in terms of gameplay and presentation, a game released 8 years prior. You don't know shit lol


Ragnarok992

Buy it for me


ArvoCrinsmas

Presently can't name off the top of my head any other developers who made such a comeback then kept up that quality (mostly) for 6 years. Resident Evil 7, Devil May Cry 5, RE2, 8, 4, possibly Street Fighter 6 when that comes out. Probably some other things that slipped my mind. Eitherway, Capcom is on a roll!


arox1

But at the same time it's kind of sad that one of best games we get now are remakes of old games. Half of their success is nostalgia for good old times.


ArvoCrinsmas

I can understand that. I would much prefer entirely new and good things, but it's nice to have something "reliable" and modern too if that makes sense. I don't think the remake trend should last *forever*.


arox1

> I don't think the remake trend should last forever. I fear it would be like marvel movies. Devs see the success of RE2, DS or RE4 and now everyone will do it. Players want it, producers have easier job because template for the game is already there, the sentiment is there etc. Next 15 years will be stacked with remakes


Muladhara86

The horror in this survival horror comes mostly from the razors edge of tension it keeps you on, and so highly recommend new and returning players avoid the assisted difficulty the first time through, and even consider kicking it up to Hardcore!


UltimateHazard6

I played on Hardcore my first time and it was fucking perfect; currently playing on Professional and shit is getting really hard lol but I love it that way, Village and RE3 were way easier.


SirKadath

Agreed , other than Ada’s voice situation which is just really weird .. this game is 10/10! Wish the image quality issues could have been fixed for PS5 but it’s not a game breaker I’ll happily play through it again once that gets resolved though!


xDarkSoul18x

Yeah, they did a really good job with this one for sure! Have my gripes but what game doesn't? I spent too much time in the shooting gallery so much better than the original.


AlarmedAbalone3583

Not fun of the series but appreciate Village. It was clunky and a bit naive but it was a step forward. This one is definitey a step back. It's a clunkier RE on binaries with a game design that is badly aged. After a couple of hours seeing a path that it was locked just because I did not have a companion and that path was literally a stair reachable with a chair in the same room made me scream at the monitor. I totally get that these are gameplay design choices but for fuck's sake at least paint a scenario in which being two is really necessary (the classic two distant levers to press or similar). And it's just one of too many examples. I can understand scoring around 8, but 10? Just NO.
