Resident Evil 4

Was not sure what to expect after the remake of 3 but man so far its been on point would absolutely reccomend for returning players and new players alike

Resident Evil 4 Remake is another smash success by Capcom, who can't seem to do much wrong with this series. The original was a major icon in gaming history and often considered one of the best games ever made, but the remake improves on essentially every aspect of it, changing elements in interesting and surprising ways that remain faithful to the original while making it simply better. Examples: -Gunplay is more dynamic, with new options such as parries, moving while a gun is drawn, and more. -Ashley's relationship with Leon and her gameplay incorporation are also both majorly improved. Ashley's growth in confidence throughout the game makes her consistently likeable and useful, and the changes to her system-wise, such as the removal of her health bar in favor of a downed state, make her feel less of a burden and more of a partner. -The other side characters, especially Luis, are also improved in a story sense, with excellent performances, stellar visual redesigns, and renewed writing. This also applies to the villains, such as Saddler, who has a much more religious feel and gravitas. -The changes to levels and progression make the game more well-paced than the original, already quite good in this area. -In terms of presentation, graphically the game is gorgeous with very granular graphical options that aid an already good optimization effort; music and sound are also quite good. There are, of course, some minor negatives: -Some performances, such as Ada's or Krauser's, seem to have lower audio quality and don't quite match up to the rest of the cast. -The level of improvement and change is inferior to that of RE2R. Of course this is because RE4 was already more modern to begin with, but you shouldn't expect too many major surprises. Overall, any fan of the Resident Evil series, horror, or action-adventure will want this game in their collection, and it's difficult to see how any future Resident Evil remake could hope to match such an amazing effort. Highly recommended to basically anyone who might be interested.

I'm coming in as a complete noob to this game. I've only played the remake of Resident Evil 2 and 4 is just amazing in every way. They basically took that game and just extended everything exactly how you want it. Better action, better weapons, better side quests, better story and dialogue. Resident Evil 2 was great, this game is excellent.
