Resident Evil 4 was my Grandpa's favourite videogame and he got me into gaming, we used to play it so much together when I was a kid, I wish he could experience this masterpiece with me again. So happy to know Resi 4 Remake is as amazing as I hoped it would be. For the snarky people asking he was in his mid 50's when we played the original Resi 4, people of all ages play video games, not just 12 year olds, he would have been like 67 this year

What I loved from the demo and I don't see people talk about is that Leon actually speaks Spanish with the locals. It was always weird to me that they sent Leon to Spain for a thorough investigation and not have him speak a lick of proper Spanish or at least attempt it. It always made me chuckle in the original when he meets his first local and barges in his home speaking full blown English

So he can give his take on Leon moving on from that a lot more accurately?

For me one of the best early moment was when I was creeping around the farm and trying to stealth kill the ganados, and suddenly I hear Ashley go "Leon watch out!" and I turn a bit and see a dude coming at me with a pitchfork, deflect it with my knife and kick his teeth in. That made me pause for a second and go "Thanks Ashley, much appreciated" IRL 🙂 I'm currently at the castle front gates and I'm already seeing a lot of signs of her trending towards becoming a "heroic civilian", easily one of my favorite tropes from 90s movies (Sandra Bullock's character in the movie Speed is a perfect example of this), as well as their dynamic starting to look a lot like John Connor and the T-800, ergo both doing what they can to the best of their abilities and working as a team. It is exactly what I was hoping to see ever since the announcement, and I'm so happy to get my wish fulfilled 😁

I was 19, maybe 20 when the original came out. My roommate and I stayed up late to grab a midnight release copy, stocked up on soda and chips and gamed for days. Some of my fondest memories are sitting on our living room floor, two best friends since childhood, passing the controller back and forth, making jokes and growing deathly silent during moments of high stress. Now the remake is out, and I'm seeing my eldest nephew, at sixteen, going through the exact same process. Staying up late so he can start playing as SOON as it drops. Hanging out with friends over Discord, making jokes and growing deathly silent during moments of high stress. THIS is what gaming is all about. Making some of the best memories you'll ever have.
@Reycied Жыл бұрын
imo the huge difference is that hardly anyone wants to meet up to play anymore😅 Everyone sits at home, and Discord isn't really an alternative for real human interaction. That's sad tbh. I've been doing game parties for years at my house in 2012~2018 but stopped because the people were either too competitive, too uninterested in "looking at a monitor all the time" (mind you they alternatively ALSO just as well looked at a monitor when not showing up), or they played on their own. Multiplayer games aren't always good, and people have no patience playing single player games the way you did back in the days.

One thing to add about the remake that I guess is subjective, but I think improved from the original, is that the Plagas inside Leon and Ashley do now effect gameplay. In the original, there are only a few brief cut-scenes that show Leon is effected by the parasite, that never interrupts gameplay, but in the remake, there are times when you get around other infected that have the ability to command the other infected to their bidding, and when they do this, both Ashley and Leon winces in headaches, not able to focus as they're in pain, flashing red on the screen as hoards are surrounding you, as you try to regain yourself to shoot. It makes it more challenging and from a story perspective, you can feel him battling the Plagas from within, versus just seeing it during a cut-scene. I really liked this change in remake.

One small detail they included in the remake that I haven't seen anyone point out, when Leon is aiming his handgun at a target that's right in front of him, he pulls his elbows in the same way special forces are taught to when clearing corners and doors, so that enemies would (theoretically) have a harder time reaching forward and grabbing his gun, although obviously Ganados don't actually attempt to take your gun away in the game.

He never wants to see another Raccoon City and he will work himself to the bones to do it. It's such a fantastic glowup to the little innocent boy he was in RE2Make that I can't help but love it. Even better is how that quest for power in a world gone mad mirror's Krauser's descent into madness. Both men want power, but for different reasons. It's A+ stuff.

I've been very impressed by the RE4 remake, particularly in how much better written it is, both compared to the original RE4 and compared to the other current generation RE games. There's so many little things to demonstrate that characterization, motivation, emotion, etc were all far more considered than they ever have been for the series, right from the intro cutscene where when Leon, instead of covering his backstory as "the racoon city incident," specifically flashes back on the people who died that he cared about in RE2. And once you meet Ashley, the way Leon and Ashley check in with each other after fights, asking if the other is okay, is so cute.

"Her appearances are as limited as her acting." LOL! I was a huge fan of Ada in the original RE2 and 4. But it sucks in later games they kinda messed her up (at least for me). I like what they did with her in 2, she felt more humanized and did seem to care despite the fan backlash. It wasn't the VA's fault by far, she did amazing. It was just the way she was written and they seem to not really capture her very well since the Re4 tbh which sucks. I think the VA change was off-putting for her and Claire (specially in Revelations 2) - I hated what they with Ada in 6, and her side story I didn't care for there either. Obviously this is an opinion, not a fact.

I'm disappointed they cut that scene, mainly because I think it would've been so cool to see them expand on it. We’ve seen throughout the game that Saddler can command people who are infected without being near them. Imagine if they had included that scene and we could actually see/hear Saddler give Leon the order to attack Ada. We could've seen Leon desperately trying to resist Saddler's control and ultimately losing the fight over his own body. We could’ve seen him trying to warn Ada as she approaches to see what's wrong, knowing that he’s not going to be able to stay in control for much longer. The scene would've also worked as a parallel to Ashley attacking Leon earlier in the castle.

This game is incredible. In my opinion it's just as good as the original, if not better. For one thing I love how they handled Leon’s character. His sharp wit and dry sense of humor are still very much intact. His voice is absolutely dripping with sarcasm. At the same time, they did a fantastic job making him feel more human this time around. In scenes such as after he kills Krauser or when he finds Ashley and sits next to the bed while he waits for her to wake up, you can tell that everything is starting to get to him. Unfortunately for him, he doesn’t have time to dwell on these thoughts and instead has to push them aside and focus on the mission. Unlike the original, it feels like he’s trying not to let things bother him because he can’t afford to, not because he doesn’t care. I think the voice actors (with the exception of Ada’s. No offense to the actor, but she just sounds so...emotionless) absolutely nail their roles. Leon’s line deliveries are great (he’s such a smartass, I love him). Ashley sounds genuinely terrified this time around. The scene where the parasite is being removed is just...so chilling. Her agonized screams are harrowing (I also love how Leon tries to comfort her during this scene. I just love their sibling dynamic so much). The antagonists also feel a lot more threatening here than they did in the original. Mendez is more intimidating, Salazar is more creepy, and Saddler is more unsettling. Saddler especially made me feel uneasy when he was on screen. It makes me wish he would have appeared more often. I also love how they handled the parasite and how they show the infection progressively getting worse. The stakes feel so much higher and the parasite feels like a genuine threat. It's something that's actually worth worrying about. Overall this game is just...so good. You can tell that Capcom wanted to respect the original as much as possible. They took what made the original great to begin with and managed to make it better. They had a clear understanding of what should be reworked and what should stay the same. I also love how the game has a perfect balance of being silly during some moments, but grim during others. It knows when it needs to be taken seriously.
@blueflare3848 Жыл бұрын
Very well said. As a huge fan of the original, I can honestly say that I loved this remake. I was especially impressed by the emotional depth they added to the characters and their dialogue. In the original, the dialogue was hammy and thankfully brief; in this game every line is well written, sounds natural, and tells you a lot about the character. Also, the boss fight with Lord Saddler was much better than in the original.
@MrDabman1236 ай бұрын
@@MrDabman123 Yes, yes, exactly! The writing as a whole feels significantly better. The characters are more developed and fleshed out, with their own distinct personalities and far more depth. They’re no longer generic and one dimensional like in the original. Character interactions feel more natural and less forced, the story is more coherent and less messy and overall ties together nicely, there are recurring themes, the use of symbolism, and parallels to earlier scenes. Everything feels more thought out. I love the original and I still think it’s a good game, but I do have a slight preference for the remake. A big reason for that is because of how the story and characters are handled.

So happy to know Resi 4 Remake is as amazing as I hoped it would be. For the snarky people asking he was in his mid 50's when we played the original Resi 4, people of all ages play video games, not just 12 year olds, he would have been like 67 this year
💀💀💀💀💀💀💀im 31
He will be with you in spirit!
This comment makes me feel ancient...
Making Mefeel old
Dont worry, he smilin up there! 🙏🏻
What I loved from the demo and I don't see people talk about is that Leon actually speaks Spanish with the locals. It was always weird to me that they sent Leon to Spain for a thorough investigation and not have him speak a lick of proper Spanish or at least attempt it. It always made me chuckle in the original when he meets his first local and barges in his home speaking full blown English
Well he says things like “hasta luego” so I guess he chooses not to speak it haha
I like his fumbling attempt; makes the character that much more charming lol.
@@ltvirgil helps him retain that boy scout goodboy vibe from RE2, but just that bit more stoic now. He's still got glimmers. Though, I do wonder if that smoother transition isn't just from a writing perspective, and also because the actor for both remakes has remained consistent. So he can give his take on Leon moving on from that a lot more accurately?
That and the villagers actually speak spain Spanish now and not Mexican Spanish lmao
Gotta make the story make sense
A small little detail that I love is when Leon first throws a grenade after finding Ashley, she tells Leon to give her a bit of a warning next time. And I was delighted to hear Leon say various warnings to Ashley throughout the game when you're about to throw a grenade and she's with you
OMG TRUE I never noticed that!
that's adorable. the attention to detail in this game is awesome.
Best Remake of all time IMHO
One of the funniest things to me is how ashley interacts with leon, just out of blue she'll say something, "Like seriously WHO does that?" when doing some death defying shit
I understood that reference. I loved that she called that out too because I thought the same thing in the original when he did that.
@@martistheartist7494 The funny part is I never thought that till she said it, and at that moment I actually thought, wait, who the fuck does do that?
@@re4me Only the Great Leon S. Kennedy
"What are you, my mother?"
@@snailthelostcow63not gonna lie the first time I heard him say that after the chandelier swing I bursted out laughing that was a genuine funny retort 😂
Hearing Ashley yell at Leon for not warning her about throwing a grenade on my first playthrough actually caused me to pause the game and give myself a moment to just laugh nonstop at how reasonable her claim is. Leon and Ashley's interaction with each other throughout the entire game is super engaging and is definitely gonna be a constant joy hearing over and over again on new playthroughs.
Yeah that’s groundbreaking for the 2023 game. This and the hair mechanics. GOTY for sure. 100% 😂😂😂
@@10secondsrule 🤡
For me one of the best early moment was when I was creeping around the farm and trying to stealth kill the ganados, and suddenly I hear Ashley go "Leon watch out!" and I turn a bit and see a dude coming at me with a pitchfork, deflect it with my knife and kick his teeth in. That made me pause for a second and go "Thanks Ashley, much appreciated" IRL 🙂 I'm currently at the castle front gates and I'm already seeing a lot of signs of her trending towards becoming a "heroic civilian", easily one of my favorite tropes from 90s movies (Sandra Bullock's character in the movie Speed is a perfect example of this), as well as their dynamic starting to look a lot like John Connor and the T-800, ergo both doing what they can to the best of their abilities and working as a team. It is exactly what I was hoping to see ever since the announcement, and I'm so happy to get my wish fulfilled 😁
lmao
When that happened to me, I thought for a moment that I accidentally hit her in the blast radius.
I love that two completely different generations will remember this game as one of the best.
I think this game will mostly be played by those that liked the original and want to replay it due to nostalgia.
@@bravo075 nahhh, younger kids are gonna love it too. It’s not like Resident Evil is some low key “only 90’s babies remember” franchise. It’s remained huge and relevant ever since these games’ original release. In face 7 and Village were probably some of their biggest releases. They couldn’t have chose a better time to do all these remakes and the fact that the new console generation is still somewhat scarce on fully next gen titles means kids are gonna go for this game even easier. And lastly, the game is CRUSHING IT in reviews and reception. All this to say, you’re waaay off lol. It’ll be adored by Everyone. As it should be.
@@twall91 98% of the player reaction to the remake refers to their nostalgia love for the original. Viewed as its own separate game, it's limited.
@@ThatSamoanGuy How is it limited?
@@ThatSamoanGuy my brother has never played resident evil 4 and loves remake. but besides the point, when a game as well known and popular as resident evil 4 gets remade is there an issue with people liking it because they have nostalgia, since when did liking something good about the past become some kinda dirty word
I gotta say, I prefer Luis in this expanded role, he actually feels like a fully realised character here instead of an awkward side character like the original. And Ashley and Leon checking in on one another after difficult enemy encounters was cool!
I wouldn't say fully realized , as when he discloses why he's helping, he dies. His journey with Leon honestly is still too short. Better but could've been more
Gameplay is great but the script writing is bland. They took away all the best B movie cheesy line away. It's because of this all the characters are now easily unfavorable.
@@Foun_D_OnePiece Nah, Leon and Ashley are much better off. Especially Leon. B movie is called B movie for a reason and this games overall quality is anything but "b movie" material
@@UnifiedEntity bro New Leon is Emo with ptsd, New Ashley breathes like an obese person, got no personality and she only response to compliments like she never had one in her life. Classic Leon is vibing cool Classic Ashley is a bitchy drama queen when she's gets in trouble.
@@UnifiedEntity They could saving that for the upcoming dlc's. (or maybe not, better to hope for it though)
I teared up a bit when first meeting the merchant ngl. I don't know what I was expecting but hearing the same exact lines in a slightly different voice and the little comment he sometimes makes about his back hurting when he adds "I guess time hasn't been kind to us" made me so nostalgic
Maybe he should get a trolley for his goods instead of his jacket and backpack lol
Find a room, crybaby.
Is is still possible to kill him btw?
The hardest challenge this game presents on your first playthrough is trying not to say his lines along with him. I couldn't help but drop an "ahhh, not only will you need cash, but you'll need GUTS to buy that weapon"
"Where you gonna put this? Your pocket!?"

They improved Ashley's character so much I actually wanted her around more. She's so sweet in this game. Capcom put way more effort into making her someone you actually want to protect, and she's become one of my favourite RE characters.
She went from a character I tolerated in the original to a character I genuinely really like now. It's a huge improvement
For sure. In the original you're relieved when she's not with you. In the remake you want to get her back.
@@ebola9717 "Tolerated". Naw you wanted to shoot Ashley yourself like everyone else did because she was annoying and worthless in the original.

I think the thing that had me smiling the most out of the entire journey is so small that most might experience and not even really care. It was during the shooting range how ashley or the other one will comment on how you are doing and cheer for you during the range sections. Such a small detail that made me go holy shit this is so fucking cool!
Exactly! Or when you hit a really faraway headshot or blue medallion and Ashley would cheer. And in the shooting gallery, after she commented on your performance, you turn around and there she was, sitting on a barrel and just having fun watching you. That was special!
@@itsalolmor ikr i love that they stopped to take the time to add small things like that!
I haven’t played it yet, but hearing this makes me happy and reminds me of The Evil Within 2, where Nurse Tatiana and Sebastian will both react to how you do on the shooting gallery minigames.
@@Road_to_Dawn Nice! Hope you get to play it soon.
I've never been more hyped than bonus time, that shit caught me so off guard and I love it.
I was 19, maybe 20 when the original came out. My roommate and I stayed up late to grab a midnight release copy, stocked up on soda and chips and gamed for days. Some of my fondest memories are sitting on our living room floor, two best friends since childhood, passing the controller back and forth, making jokes and growing deathly silent during moments of high stress. Now the remake is out, and I'm seeing my eldest nephew, at sixteen, going through the exact same process. Staying up late so he can start playing as SOON as it drops. Hanging out with friends over Discord, making jokes and growing deathly silent during moments of high stress. THIS is what gaming is all about. Making some of the best memories you'll ever have.
imo the huge difference is that hardly anyone wants to meet up to play anymore😅 Everyone sits at home, and Discord isn't really an alternative for real human interaction. That's sad tbh. I've been doing game parties for years at my house in 2012~2018 but stopped because the people were either too competitive, too uninterested in "looking at a monitor all the time" (mind you they alternatively ALSO just as well looked at a monitor when not showing up), or they played on their own. Multiplayer games aren't always good, and people have no patience playing single player games the way you did back in the days.
Well said, my friend. Gaming can build wonderful memories.
thats a fact right there....gaming memories have been some of my best memories
Ashley's voice actress was excellent in this game
One thing to add about the remake that I guess is subjective, but I think improved from the original, is that the Plagas inside Leon and Ashley do now effect gameplay. In the original, there are only a few brief cut-scenes that show Leon is effected by the parasite, that never interrupts gameplay, but in the remake, there are times when you get around other infected that have the ability to command the other infected to their bidding, and when they do this, both Ashley and Leon winces in headaches, not able to focus as they're in pain, flashing red on the screen as hoards are surrounding you, as you try to regain yourself to shoot. It makes it more challenging and from a story perspective, you can feel him battling the Plagas from within, versus just seeing it during a cut-scene. I really liked this change in remake.
Same here, and it's something I was hoping the developers would do. I was saying ever since this game was announced that I wanted at least one instance where the parasite affected Leon during gameplay.
One small detail they included in the remake that I haven't seen anyone point out, when Leon is aiming his handgun at a target that's right in front of him, he pulls his elbows in the same way special forces are taught to when clearing corners and doors, so that enemies would (theoretically) have a harder time reaching forward and grabbing his gun, although obviously Ganados don't actually attempt to take your gun away in the game.
Nevermind she just pointed it out after I typed my comment 😅
@@apictureoffunction yeah lol Center Axis Relock stance
We need Code Veronica Remake next! We need more Claire and Wesker!
and Ninja Gaiden + Dino Crisis
@RED PK184 We just had Chris in the last 2 numbered games.
@RED PK184 Even more of a reason to Remake Code Veronica because he gets a big playable section. I agree that his appearances in the last 2 numbered games were pretty bad. To me, it felt like they just made a new character and called him Chris Redfield.
“Monsters, guess after this there’ll be one less to worry about” The sheer confidence in his voice, the anger in his tone and that death stare at salazar when he delivered the line. It was at that moment i fell in love with this game and this character leon scott kennedy. I was 10-12 back than and now I’m 25. And i’ve teared up time and again to see how good a job capcom has done.
This is what I talked about before I don't understand why they removed golden dialogue like this. I understand there was stuff in the original that were just downright cheese but this line was fucking awesome. At least the Salazar fight in the remake was much better though
One little detail I liked was how Leon will help Ashley up some vaulting points if she's close enough to him. The way they could both fatigue and breathe heavily after running I found myself resting and walking a lot more than expected, kudos to making them feel human, needing a break once in a while.
Based on what I've seen from the demo and the footage you've shown here, it really looks like capcom walked the perfect line between being faithful and introducing new or improved stuff with this one. Very excited for the full release.
Same, retrofitted and streamlined, mostly the stealth mechanics that opens a whole new experience for its gameplay variety for its genre.
Perfectly balanced
@Rick Ross Hopefully they put in into separate ways
@Rick Ross you're a troll. and you support Michael does life.
@Rick Ross Is that the lizard boss in the cave section everyone forgets about every playthrough? Its a cool boss but I'm not too torn up if thats the case. I've got over 40 playthroughs and I legit forget about it every playthrough lol
The original Resident Evil 4 was my introduction to the series. I have so many fond memories of it and seeing Capcom remake it with such effort and passion just brings a tear to my eye. I didn’t even think that they were going to make it available for last gen consoles - it's like the Merchant came over to my door and was like "Got something that might interest ya, stranger."
Enjoy this soon to be dated pos now. In 20 years expect a upscale of re8 when CC still cant light anything new on their own
Same re4 original was my introduction to the franchise as well 👍
@@symbiote3220 I disagree, this game is definitely going to be timeless.
Without spoiling anything for anyone who hasn't got there yet, Krauser's updated role in the story is genuinely incredible. I love his boss fights and his new dynamic with Leon as his former instructor (you kinda see this in the intro, but it gets expanded upon) are so fun to experience, and his conclusion is one of the standout moments of the game imo.
I agree, I love how they handled Krauser’s character.
Wow that's Leon's instructor? Never knew! I always wondered who the hell he was lol.
@@TheSoulCrisis Skipping cutscenes usually leads to not knowing about plot-relevant information, yes.
Although now I wonder what the new Operation Javier is like
@@TheSoulCrisisOG Krauser was just a fellow agent with Leon, a former comrade who he went on a mission involving zombies and monsters
Idk who the actress for Ashley is but she was amazing. I actually felt her fear/caring in her voice. She made me care about a character this time around.
Same. She did an amazing job.
I agree. Her voice is absolutely harrowing in certain scenes. She sounds genuinely terrified. Apparently it's the same actor who played Jill in RE3 remake!
Thanks for keeping it spoiler free, and it’s encouraging to know you think it is phenomenal .

I don’t think I’ve been this excited for a game in a LONG time
Agreed
For a while, I didn't think this game would ever come out.
since re2 remake probably
It’s definitely been a long time coming, I haven’t been this excited since GTA 5.
I put in 2 days of leave to be able to play 😂
My favorite thing about the RE4 Remake is that it does *exactly* what I hoped it would do: it recontextualizes Leon not as a post 9/11 Counterterrorist Hero, but as a haunted warrior going to hell and back so he can have the skills, the *POWER* he needs to save others. He never wants to see another Raccoon City and he will work himself to the bones to do it. It's such a fantastic glowup to the little innocent boy he was in RE2Make that I can't help but love it. Even better is how that quest for power in a world gone mad mirror's Krauser's descent into madness. Both men want power, but for different reasons. It's A+ stuff.
I've had this game since April 2nd, I have 158 hours, my platinum trophy on Playstation, everything in-game unlocked.........and I still CAN NOT STOP PLAYING IT!! Such a fantastic game, I didn't even play the original (wasn't into horror survival in '05 as i was 12) and I'm completely hooked
Original RE4 is NOT survival horror. It's more action than the remake.

I’ve tried so hard to avoid spoilers for the game, but today it’s like every video for it on KZhead has footage of something I don’t want to see until I actually play the game. I caught a glimpse of the regenerators and scrolled past the video asap. I can’t even watch let’s plays and reviews without risking seeing spoilers.
I've been very impressed by the RE4 remake, particularly in how much better written it is, both compared to the original RE4 and compared to the other current generation RE games. There's so many little things to demonstrate that characterization, motivation, emotion, etc were all far more considered than they ever have been for the series, right from the intro cutscene where when Leon, instead of covering his backstory as "the racoon city incident," specifically flashes back on the people who died that he cared about in RE2. And once you meet Ashley, the way Leon and Ashley check in with each other after fights, asking if the other is okay, is so cute.
One little detail I love they added is with guns like the Silver Ghost if you do a partial reload you have an extra round in the chamber. While i'm probably the only person who has been irked that it doesn't work like that in a lot of shooters I think its a cool little detail, especially since Leon has a different reload animation depending on if its a full or partial reload.
I wish they did that with all the guns, in theory it should work on every closed bolt detach mag gun, and even stripper clip fed guns u can cram an extra round in if u push the rounds down while one is in the chamber when closing the bolt
@@lambsauce5312 that’s not how it really works, you don’t cram an extra round in that won’t work on most guns, most games do this, let’s say the mag capacity is 30 rounds, they just use the mag capacity and don’t take into account that there would be one in the chamber too so that would make it 31 rounds, you don’t have to cram in extra one in the mag for that, all you have to do is chamber one round then take the mag out and put one more in it making it full again
@@cameronmillspaugh1601 i didn't say that, i meant holding the rounds of a full mag down in a gun with an internal mag and closing the bolt with one in the chamber
@@lambsauce5312 ah okay I see what you mean
The fact that these reviews are coming out a week before release make it so much harder to wait. Great review!
I mean it just kinda justifies us preordering the game at least LOL. Last time I preordered remake 3 and was so disappointed. Remake 4 looks amazing though
As an Ada fan, I’m going to try my best to not let her ruin this game for me. I still have the original to look back on, thankfully.
The broken butterfly reload was pretty sick in the original. The way he breaks it up and casually dumps everything over his shoulder before tossing round after round into the cylinder was so cool. Wish they kept it in the remake.
That's one thing I do miss
Resident Evil 4 is the first game in the series I finished to completion. It's also the first game my mom, bless her soul, actually sat and watched me play on the GameCube and was actually invested in it. I hadn't known they remade it until this week.
Was legendary in 2005 and still legendary in 2023! The team absolutely poured their heart into it and i am happy its best rated game this year so far "not that it matter" but that's amazing for dev especially seeing capcom tweet
@Rick Ross *trading off* content is actually more apt. U3 is only thing cut outside of QTE segments really, And in return we got brand new enemies, New boss fights (Krauser First encounter instead of QTE it's a Boss fight) and new weapons ect. And like 95% of the OGs campaign is in tact. so we got more new things then what was cut. That said Seperate ways Being a a dlc is Unfortunate but leakers say it's Going to have More content and be longer then OG Seperate ways, rumors is U3 was actually put into seperate ways for Ada to fight instead also which if true would be awesome. At least Mercenaries Is Free tho, Assignment Ada is only one not sure if coming back

“Every single gun sounds beefy”. ABSOLUTELY! They all sound so glorious especially playing with amplified headphones. It’s indeed a phenomenal game. Can’t wait to start my second playthrough on hardcore this time. 18 hours to complete the first.
and It was in 2005
I really hope to see a lot more Ashley love this time around. I always thought she was the most underrated character in the original game.
Same here. I understand the criticism about escort missions in those times but i never had such problems with Ashley.
People are going to fall in love with Ashley this time around. I saw the leaks, so no worries on that front.
Its more that escort missions have typically been bad and lots of people played re4 as a first entry so adjusting to tank controls was hard. Add in a helpless college girl who screams a lot and it's just not ideal for new comers. It's nothing personal Ashley, and I'm excited to see how it goes this time around
@@ninjamimealt but Ash back then was probably the best implementation of escort missions ever made
"Her appearances are as limited as her acting." LOL! I was a huge fan of Ada in the original RE2 and 4. But it sucks in later games they kinda messed her up (at least for me). I like what they did with her in 2, she felt more humanized and did seem to care despite the fan backlash. It wasn't the VA's fault by far, she did amazing. It was just the way she was written and they seem to not really capture her very well since the Re4 tbh which sucks. I think the VA change was off-putting for her and Claire (specially in Revelations 2) - I hated what they with Ada in 6, and her side story I didn't care for there either. Obviously this is an opinion, not a fact.
Hopefully when Separate Ways comes out, it will show that Ada did care about Leon but she doesn’t show it in front of Leon
I guess they could have kicked off the 6 storyline way earlier in the remake-verse, it would be an explanation for the Ada changes.
I mean there was a very concern look to her when leon wants to keep pressing on,especially telling him to leave the girl and get out of there. I don’t think she was necessarily using leon entirely it might be the voice acting her face looked like she was incredibly worried. Remember Ada does have to keep a poker face.
@@xavierpeterson7139 true its like this was intentional and I don't really think the acting is that bad... I thought the older adas sounded so over the top like call s €x-workers but not like a cold blooded special agent
I liked Ada's story line in six. Her interaction across all of 6s storylines was Interesting.
Tbh, the one boss fight they cut makes a lot of sense, it's one of the more annoying parts of the original and with the pacing of remake, putting it in would probably result in something almost like a boss rush considering where it is in the game. Honestly shocked at how much they kept in/reworked. If anything, there are some parts from the original I honestly hoped they would cut. Not gonna name any names. *Spoilers below* *Cough* Catapults *Cough* Also I freaking love that they went all in with making Krauser a Vergil meme, it has to be self aware LOL
Plus the low amount of resources you get and the high amount of bullets it takes to beat enemies, cutting a boss out helps to keep the game from feeling impossible.
I'm betting It'll end up in Separate Ways.
One thing I absolutely hate that they cut from the original was possessed Leon attacking Ada, but after he comes to, all she thought about was his safety. That could’ve been a major moment in this remake.
Glad they cut that
I'm disappointed they cut that scene, mainly because I think it would've been so cool to see them expand on it. We’ve seen throughout the game that Saddler can command people who are infected without being near them. Imagine if they had included that scene and we could actually see/hear Saddler give Leon the order to attack Ada. We could've seen Leon desperately trying to resist Saddler's control and ultimately losing the fight over his own body. We could’ve seen him trying to warn Ada as she approaches to see what's wrong, knowing that he’s not going to be able to stay in control for much longer. The scene would've also worked as a parallel to Ashley attacking Leon earlier in the castle.
That’s one cutscene i was sad to see go too. In fact the only one. This could’ve been such a curveball.
kinda late but I think they might be saving that scene for seperate ways. Leon was unconscious and on the floor after he removed the plagas from ashley, she could have never lifted him up to the chair on her own. I think Ada will have have a boss fight against leon.
@@user-mh4ky2hm2k Ada got captured and tied-up by Saddler, though. As much as I want this, it doesn’t make sense for Ada to beat Saddler, go to the lab and fight Leon, get captured again by Saddler presumably still in the laboratory, and Saddler taking her to lure Leon to him even though he and Ashley are in the same room.
It's true RE4 doesn't need remake treatment. But Gosh darn it, after replaying RE4 for the 100th time or so, you wonder how would the game look and feel in the modern RE engine. I guess we have the answer now. Thanks for the amazing content as always Suzi.

This game is incredible. In my opinion it's just as good as the original, if not better. For one thing I love how they handled Leon’s character. His sharp wit and dry sense of humor are still very much intact. His voice is absolutely dripping with sarcasm. At the same time, they did a fantastic job making him feel more human this time around. In scenes such as after he kills Krauser or when he finds Ashley and sits next to the bed while he waits for her to wake up, you can tell that everything is starting to get to him. Unfortunately for him, he doesn’t have time to dwell on these thoughts and instead has to push them aside and focus on the mission. Unlike the original, it feels like he’s trying not to let things bother him because he can’t afford to, not because he doesn’t care. I think the voice actors (with the exception of Ada’s. No offense to the actor, but she just sounds so...emotionless) absolutely nail their roles. Leon’s line deliveries are great (he’s such a smartass, I love him). Ashley sounds genuinely terrified this time around. The scene where the parasite is being removed is just...so chilling. Her agonized screams are harrowing (I also love how Leon tries to comfort her during this scene. I just love their sibling dynamic so much). The antagonists also feel a lot more threatening here than they did in the original. Mendez is more intimidating, Salazar is more creepy, and Saddler is more unsettling. Saddler especially made me feel uneasy when he was on screen. It makes me wish he would have appeared more often. I also love how they handled the parasite and how they show the infection progressively getting worse. The stakes feel so much higher and the parasite feels like a genuine threat. It's something that's actually worth worrying about. Overall this game is just...so good. You can tell that Capcom wanted to respect the original as much as possible. They took what made the original great to begin with and managed to make it better. They had a clear understanding of what should be reworked and what should stay the same. I also love how the game has a perfect balance of being silly during some moments, but grim during others. It knows when it needs to be taken seriously.
Very well said. As a huge fan of the original, I can honestly say that I loved this remake. I was especially impressed by the emotional depth they added to the characters and their dialogue. In the original, the dialogue was hammy and thankfully brief; in this game every line is well written, sounds natural, and tells you a lot about the character. Also, the boss fight with Lord Saddler was much better than in the original.
@@MrDabman123 Yes, yes, exactly! The writing as a whole feels significantly better. The characters are more developed and fleshed out, with their own distinct personalities and far more depth. They’re no longer generic and one dimensional like in the original. Character interactions feel more natural and less forced, the story is more coherent and less messy and overall ties together nicely, there are recurring themes, the use of symbolism, and parallels to earlier scenes. Everything feels more thought out. I love the original and I still think it’s a good game, but I do have a slight preference for the remake. A big reason for that is because of how the story and characters are handled.
I don’t get what you people say about Ada’s VA I think she did a very good job. She sounds like a secretive, condescending opportunistic agent she’s more realistic in this version she’s really not to show emotion or even be helping Leon but she still does to a degree. People really nitpick at an all time high nowadays 😅
@@TheKing8608_ It’s not nitpicking. Her performance is not on the same level as the other actors. The problem is that it sounds as though the voice actress is the one who is bored and uncaring, not the character. There’s a big difference.
As promised, back to watch this a full second time now that it's back. I always love your content, and as I alluded to the last time I watched this, you are one of my most respected voices in Resident Evil, and your opinion on this game was one of the very few I was really looking forward to--and one I was hoping to hear praise from for the new RE4. The original still stands as maybe my favorite game of all time, so I'm happy with the work they've done on the Remake, and I've been enjoying it so far.
When it comes to horror reviews, Suzi is always the one where I finally know its safe to pull the trigger on buying a game
Same man.
😅😊
@@jigglynorris2559different boobs
He sure does.
This game was a massive part of my childhood, So glad it got a proper remake.
So, about a month ago, I played the original for the first time. So far, the thing I'm still the most impressed with, is how I'm feeling the exact same difficulty curve I felt on my first playthrough. I love how the games difficulty are suggested by if you've played the original or not
I can't wait to play this! It's still hard to believe we're getting a remake of this
Has there ever been a bad remake? Remasters I understand though.
@@RighthandfrombehindDepends on your definition of bad. Lot of people were pissed at the RE3 remake’s missing content. Not a bad game mechanically, but left a lot of people wanting the “missing” parts from the original.
@@CharlesBrusch Re2 too
@@Righthandfrombehind I feel I am 99% satisfied with remakes, they are great! Remaster not so much...
How have i never heard of this channel before? I love this content and the perfect description of one of my favorite games since the second R.E.make . I will definitely be watching more of your video reviews . great job and keep it up.
I’m almost done with the remake, but I gotta say, one of the things that I love most are the changes to Ashley. I now actually feel connected with her in game, and she’s not annoying anymore. She’s super sweet and the chemistry between her and Leon is vibrant; taking her with you into the shooting range is so cute as she cheers you on
Ikr? I absolutely adore her in the remake.
I didn't even notice the post battle reaction systems from Leon, but that is ridiculously cool how closely detailed it is in that respect.
What are those?
@@albertoandrade9807if Leon has trouble finishing a fight, he wrenches his muscles in stress and pain. If he completes a battle easily, he scoffs it off and wipes blood off of his face.
@@Papa_Emeritus_IV insane
Been looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this!! You’re my favorite survival horror game reviewer :) have a good day!
Watch Bawkbasoup. She is biased and is probably being paid by Capcom.
Totally, same.
Bingo ladies, NB folks and gentlemen! Bingo.
your account is excellent! i came across your videos yesterday and have been binging ever since, your reviews are very knowledgeable and thorough
Loved the review! And I’m falling in love with the game 😍 You should do a play through, I think it would be amazing to experience it with all your knowledge and carisma. Much love ❤
The more you praise it, the more I feel being robbed for preordering RE3 years ago. Capcom needs to update and expand RE3 !!! Edit:And as an Ada fans, heard your thoughts, I really felt betrayed even haven’t played the game yet. Really hope Ada DLC delivers a good story.
I'm actually kinda depressed that they managed to biff Ada so badly. One of the things I was most looking forward to was seeing how they improved on the dynamic between Ada and Leon in this game. It was always weird seeing Leon shrug off the fact that Ada was alive in the original. Well at least my expectations are tempered now, not that they weren't after hearing Ada's voice in the first trailer lol.
@@MrMango-og7je In the OG Leon already knows Ada is alive, that's why he asks if it's true that she is working with Wesker.
I know... The problem I had was he learned off-screen, which totally takes away from any emotional weight the scene could've had. And we'll never get that weighty scene from the sound of it.
I’m so happy that the game is getting good reviews but sad to hear what happened to Ada. I’m just hoping that their mercenaries mode is extremely fun and that they add Separate Ways and that it fixes Ada.
I hope that they will add a few more characters and maps in mercenaries. Would be amazing to play as Jill in re4 remake 😍
@@NoiselessSorrowthat would be great especially with Death Island coming out later this year
I feel you. Im so disapointed. :/
Btw did she say Krauser is gay now or was that a pun? Lol
I know Ada didnot have alot of scenes in OG. Only appeared in the island more. So i amnot surprised she feels this way though because even in OG after saving Leon twice, she still is using him to get the virus
Glad you were able to redownload this video... I cant wait to play this fame myself... especially since i love the original so much and bought it right when it came out back when it first came out...
Absolutely love your videos! Couldn’t agree with you more on this review. At first I struggled with the controls but once learning them you can really move flawlessly.
Your retrospectives are always awesome, covering everything in detail and being open up about your opinions
This review has given me extremely high hopes for the game. The reviews online that give it 8-10/10's give me high hopes for the game. The fact I've put in about 10 hours into the demo makes me have extremely high hopes for this game. God I want to play this game so bad right now
You speak so eloquently and beautiful. And your voice is 🤌 “chefs kiss”
I like how titillated the merchant sounds now with the classic line, "Oo! What're ya buyin'?🎵"
So glad to hear everything you had to say about it. RE4 is not my absolute favorite, but it is my most replayed game of all time. I can't count the number of times I've replayed it across three generations. It's my comfort game too, when I just want to relax and have a good time, the OG is the one I always turn on and play. Hopefully this Remake becomes the same thing for me.
Wait.. so Leon is still using the knife that Marvin gave him years ago? That's actually a cool detail if true.
Yes!
The amount me and my friends have been talking about this game recently and just Resi in general is actually insane. Cannot wait to give it a try for myself. Love the vid bud
The reference to the RE3.5 beta with the falling deer head during the segment where one plays as Ashley put a stupid grin on my face, that whole section felt like it was inspired by that early demo in the visual aesthetics and setting
I can't wait to play this, been replaying the demo over and over.
With the fact that ada isn't really in this game is giving Chris hope
Oh no 💀
The Bloodline must continue...
@@aaronlockley9207 Leon X Claire forever.
23:09 “Unless you’re like a die-hard super-fan of Ada” *Guess I’ll die 🥲*
You have no idea how excited I am for this game to come out. I'll be playing it together with my brother - someone with which I've played the original countless of times already. I have seen nothing but positive reviews and you shedding some light on a possibly lesser Ada is somewhat refreshing. I'll see for myself how much I'll let it impact my opinion. Personally always thought Saddler was the weakest link in the original, so I'm extremely glad to hear he got such a big change.
I love how in-depth you went on this spoiler free review. Your passion, how you talk about it, etc. I'm saddened that my worries about Ada became a reality. From the story trailer I've noticed that her voice acting sounded off, like bad (or bored as you put it). That was the only concern I had, which you confirmed. That's unfortunate, but thanks for sharing! Hopefully the Separate Ways DLC does indeed fix that! Thank you for your honesty though! Loved how you constructed this review. After playing the demo multiple times, I cannot wait for the final product!
Hopefully we won't have to long of await from what I hear it will be more fleshed out and added to it hope it drops the same time mercenaries does.
Chapter 12 boss is insanely difficult. Glad I wasn't the only one who had trouble with that.
Who is that?
@@mrcocoloco7200 i think its salazar
@@jackpitman15 Damn but why some love him? I'm very confused now?
@@mrcocoloco7200 most people had problems pre patch, i personally liked the fight but its definitly the worst in the game, besides del lago (which is pretty much the same fight in classic RE4 with the most minor of changes )which says more about the other boss fights
@@jackpitman15 Ah I see. So Capcom fix it but it's not the most fun Boss to fight with.
Just settling into your twitch game play vods now. So excited to watch you play n hear your thoughts
I love how limited the laser sight is for how useful it is. I went blackmail my first play through (hardcore), but I plan on going silver ghost for professional run. The game flow and action is so addicting that I want to start a ng than ng+. I barely had any ammo on the island, but moving so fast in combat while keeping count of ammo is just satisfying.
Beautifully, passionately narrated review. Haven't watched many from you but I'll definitely do so starting now. Can't wait for the full game!
Beautiful review, Suzi! I finished the game the other day, and you're right, it is phenomental! And now I'm on my second playthrough on new game plus! That's gonna be a blast, I can already tell!
Excellent video! I loved the explanation of Leon's physical mechanics as the trained badass he is now, versus him as a fledgling officer years back. I'm also a sucker for character interactions that actually have meaning in games.
I don't understand why they changed Ada so much. She was so diva, so fierce, so charisma uniqueness nerve and talent. How could they do this to her?
I liked her, hope you enjoy the remake
Gone woke
@@yharnamiyhill787 that doesn't make sense, because if they was gonna go woke, they would have doubled down in her being a girlboss
@@yharnamiyhill787 "I don't like this, so since I lack even a basic argument, I'll just parrot that popular word WOKE to express my disdain!"
@@yharnamiyhill787 What does that word even mean? It's irrelevant to her writing in this series. She was much more "woke" originally, so is your brain rotting?
Really looking forward to your full thoughts on the game, your feature length vid on the original RE4 was probably the most passionate RE video I've watched and I feel like this one will be a repeat of that.
I've been complete black out on re4 remake. But now, since I have finished my first play through on standard mode, I'm in love ❤️ and your take on re4 is exactly how I feel and I couldn't be happier with how they produced this classic. Now subbed to you and omfg this game is amazing 👏 🙌
The reviews have been looking pretty stellar so far, this one included. A bit sad that Ada is so lackluster in the main story, but I have a feeling Separate Ways will dial her up to 11. Can't wait to play in just a few hours time!
This is good news!!!! I am so pumped to play this game! Sad to hear ada's character won't be expanded upon in this remake seeing how much chemistry leon and ada had in the re2 remake. Although in the OG re4 she wasn't in much of the main story either. Gonna be nice to see this game through fresh eyes.
It's weird though because that interview capcom did with game informer said ada has a bigger role this time so to hear this is a bit confusing, but what they probably mean is a bigger role with separate ways
@@waynefowler782 yeah I think he was talking about separate ways after hearing how limited her role was in the main story line.
wonderful review, Suzi! Currently on ch9 and loving my experience with the game thus far : )
I already completed three play throughs of RE4R and started a forth, that how much I love this game. What was awesome to see Is Luis got more story time and got to know him a bit more, where as In the original RE4 which I also love as well, you didn't get the chance too. Also, I love how Leon and Ashley's bond grows from her not trusting him to forming a friendship and helping him out. She can look after herself a lot more in the remake than the original and the history between Leon and Krauser was expanded more here, which was really great to see. Let's not forget our friendly neighbourhood The Merchant, always liked the character. Awesome video, keep up the amazing work.
Also Saddler was shown more and seemed much more creepy.
@@A_KZhead_Commenter Absolutely, not as much of an action movie type villain like in the original.
Appreciate the review and all the details and passion you put into it, sorry it got taken down initially 😢
Glad she pointed out the rain. The game looks really good in general but on occasion I noticed that some things (like animals) didn't have shadows. Hopefully the day 1 patch will fix some of the visual weirdness.
so that's why they looked kinda off-putting, lol
Capcom: "Sue doesn't want more remakes soon, guess we're shelving the Haunting Ground remake." Sue: "NONONO WAITWAITWAIT"
It’s cool to see the old body despawning mechanic where they melt into the floor make a return as well. It feels cool because the bodies stay long enough so that you can have fun with the ragdoll if that’s your thing, while also keeping the mechanic.
it also helps tension, as in the earlygame the ganados with their heads barely attached lay still for a few seconds too, meaning you can just walk past without noticing, expecting them to dissolve off screen, or you can end up aiming at one waiting for it to get up only for it to dissolve
I have seen Suzy's videos since the amazing review of Cyberpunk 2077, and the way she writes the script is in such a polish state that the passion for each subject comes through quickly. It's like hearing an audiobook about games you like.
I've seen Suzi on.. different video platforms and the term comes quick applies there too
I like Leon’s more bitter and impatient tone with his one liners. It adds to his character development across these six years and his guilt from RE2.
Woah you got a review copy?! Glad to see how much this channel has grown!
Great to see you in the Street Fighter 6 presentation today!
Incredibly passionate overview as always! Can't wait to play and stream. :D
