The WORST RE4 Remake DLC Hot Takes

- The RE4 Remake Separate Ways DLC has been out for a few weeks now. As with all Resident Evil game releases, there is always controversy that follows. Today, I decided to compile the WORST RE4 Remake DLC Hot Takes and give my thoughts on them. The last hot take is by far one of the worst ones I've ever seen...

Og sw and dlc like are the same and dis guys are actually stupid if you don't want more remakes THEN DONT FRICKNG SEE OR BUY THE NEXT REMAKE CLOSE THE COMPUTER OR LAPTOP DUME FRICK
It's f*cking great. Best dlc I've spent real cash buying in a long time.
I'm on my 13th playthrough, still working on my paths and strategies. Missed my S+ on standard by 10 minutes and jumped right back in and now I'm on hardcore. This DLC is the price of a McDonald's meal, I've gotten a lot out of my $10.
I agree on the price: $70 for the Remake+Separate Ways DLC is more than fair. RE4 can be had for around $40 at this point too. People just love complaining.
I really enjoyed it I played through it twice started a new game right after I beat it
$10 for a DLC with more content in it, than REmake 3. Ada even has more outfits 💀
You still have to buy Re 4 Remake to play Separate Ways. Dumb take actually.
@@jackjax7921 Spending $60 for a short remake with at least 50% of its original content cut is even dumber.
@@jackjax7921 The point is that a small side mode has more value than a full retail release. Obviously you end up paying $70 total to access SW, but the fact that a $60 release has as much or even less content than that DLC is a crime
But it's basically the same game you already paid for in the base game.
@@jackjax7921 just say you dont got the money and move on
People will always have something to complain about, no matter what, even when they get what they whine about. This has been a constant given in the RE community for twenty years.
I'd say in any community. People love to complain more than compliment
Just like the title of this video, I've seen worst. Try people complaining about 2 FREE dlcs RELEASED EVERY YEAR for GTA online. How is it even possible to complain about that. Considering you don't get anywhere near that amount of dlcs for other video games. Not to mention they ain't free. Have they even released the dlc for Elden Ring already?
And thats why some game companies go to sh1t
Its the attitude of "gamers should just stfu and not complain" while they do their worst with PC politics in games and everything going pay to win dlc.
@@minthouse6338 the game studios make money when you go to their site and klick or look at Ads next to the free dlc.
They also want to maintain customers till the next Game comes out. Its good PR!
Nothing is Free.
You think companies make free updates or software becaus of the goodness of their hart?
I agree with you facts👍👍👍
People are wild, im i rather pay $10 for a great expansion rather then a $10-30 skin.
I 100% agree
Facts. Bet these people have no problem buying a ton of micro transactions for Fortnite or something lmao
This was the best resident evil DLC to date to be honest, I had a blast playing it.
Agreed 🙌🏻
100% !!!
Coming from someone who thinks the main campaign was extremely boring. I found seperate ways better here than in the original.
Ada dlc wasn't bad.
Idk village dlc was really fun playing as rose and going back to 3rd person instead of 1st.
It was I agree
I think it is important to note that the original release did not have separate ways. The gamecube version. It was added to the ps2 port. If you were a gc og re4 player, you must have been disappointed that you had to buy a console and the game again to play separate ways, instead of paying $10
Funny, none of the well it was free in og re4 want to mention this
This right here. I had a GameCube and all the Resident Evil games released on it so I am one of those people that not only beat Re4 on the GameCube and meticulously unlocked everything in the game just to run around and blast Ganados with an infinite rocket launcher, the Chicago typewriter and the handcannon but I also had to go out and buy a PS2 and a new copy of the game just to play Seperate Ways. Never once complained just sucked it up because I loved the GameCube original enough to buy an all new console and copy of the game just to play Seperate Ways.
@@johnschneider5917 i was also a GC player. back then, i was never able to get the PS2 to play SW and AA so i just replayed the hell out of RE4 on the GC lol
@moopmoop1040 I actually worked overtime at my job for an entire month to be able to get it 🤣 I suffered a little. I do still go back to the GameCube version of the game somedays though because it will always be my favorite version.
Like seriously, I had RE4 on the GameCube. You had to buy another console and buy the game over again to play it. Beat it again to experience it/ I didn’t get to experience separate ways until 2020 when I got the switch version. People shouldn’t be complaining.
This is madness, I have been talking about the 10 dollar price tag a lot too. Because I think it's a FANTASTIC price! DLCs nowadays are usually way more expensive than that. 10 bucks usually gets you a skin. The Winters expansion was 20 dollars and while I haven't played it I heard the Rose campaign was pretty short, and honestly third person should have been a free update along with the merc characters (RE4R added new merc characters alongside Seperate ways for FREE)
Everyone I have talked to have been positively surprised when i said the DLC was only 10 bucks.
To be fair though, the Winters Expansion came with story DLC, a third person mode for the base game, and more mercenaries stages and characters. Shadows of Rose is between 3-4 hours from what i remember
@@Owen01 shadows of rose was trash af i forced myself to finish it and the third person mode should've been a free update
@Owen01 Honestly, it's disorienting playing main campaign and forcing players to play dlc that forced 3rd person. Wish you had both options. I am glad we got dlc. Felt like things packed in to charge a bigger price. We got spoiled with resident evil 7.
I didn’t mind the winter expansion. It was a decent story DLC. It was cool to….SPOILER….. to see Ethan and rose interact. It was heartwarming
The 3rd person mode was nice to see. They took a game that is 1st person and made it 3rd person. That’s not easy, devs should be compensated for their work. They let fans who aren’t unable to play 1st person a chance to play it.
@@joegardner851 Agreed. Adding a third person mode to a game a game built with first person in mind would have required a lot of reworking of the game
Only problem I had with the dlc was that they didn’t include all weapons especially the sg09 gun which was my favourite one and that they removed the maze container fight against the u3 other than that the dlc was so much fun I loved Ada’s gameplay
The dlc was awesome
I never liked that maze container....
@@SuperMario0972But let's not deny the fact that if it had been in the remake it would have been a better version of that area and maybe you would have liked it.
@@metroplex29 maybe. But I dont miss it....
@@SuperMario0972I use to dread that part in every play through of the og but I've gotta say I kinda miss it
Mercenaries was a free dlc yet ppl complain and ungrateful. 🤦♂️ 💀
I have to download, it should’ve already be in the game 😝
I have to agree it should have been in the game already at launch just like in the OG
People whining about a $10 DLC, never experienced true pain when you owned it for the GameCube, Meaning you have to buy it PS2 IN ORDER TO PLAY SEPARATE WAYS.
Also why are people calling the PS2 the original when its not lol 😅
I was wondering this same exact thing. 💯 I literally had to put in overtime at my job to play the original Seperate Ways 😂 worked 70 hour work weeks for a month because not only did I have bills to pay but I had to save up for a PS2 and an all new copy of RE4 just to play Seperate Ways and after I had already unlocked everything in the original GameCube exclusive.
@@johnschneider5917 Dang that's a lot dude. Hope u better now. Personally I respect passion but it has its limits especially for something which is a hobby like gaming
@@johnschneider5917kudos man, you worked your ass off and was able to buy one of the best consoles in history and the best game ever made. Most people would have complained
@joegardner851 I will do almost anything for a Resident Evil game 🤣. When Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles came out I saved up for a Wii. When Re5 came out I saved up for a PS3 and when RE7 was announced I saved up for a PS4 and now I have damn near every Resident Evil game or as many as possible for each system 🤣. If a RE game is released exclusively on the PS5 then I will break down and get one but until that happens I am sticking with the 4 systems that I currently have.
@@johnschneider5917 the dedication in awesome!!!! I almost did the same. I bought a PS5 to play RE8 😂 I thought it was a new gen exclusive lol
This is why Resident Evil is a multi million dollar franchise. The good and the bad will make it sale.
99% of the bad reviews are from people who obviously haven't touched the original.
99% of the bad reviews are from people who obviously haven't touched grass in a while lol
@@Oldirtycrzaor touched another human being
I havent touched the original but I did looked it up and watched it. I'm glad to have it. I got into RE with RE2 remake and RE8.
And where did you come up with that figure? 99%? Did you actually READ the reviews?
@@Oldirtycrza Wow, that's original. When do you think you'll get bored of that played-out expression?
Ive noticed its mostly older players complaining the most and nitpicking the tiniest minuscule details when comparing OG RE4 and RE4R.
The dlc is well worth the price. It’s crazy how separate ways around the same length maybe longer than the resident evil 3 remake. That yellow paint was really unnecessary though. Not a deal breaker but just why?
Probably for visually or attention-span challenged people, and I mean that in the best way.
I don't mind the paint, maybe they could have added an option that removes the paint, but I stil think it's a good thing that they have integrated that in the latest games, since that helps people struggling with those elements.
@ReggiezombieDamn, imagine telling people they have no life, but crying at them in the comments non-stop over opinions. Touch grass, loser.
Separate Ways had more content than all of RE3 remake which was full price!
I am so mad about this. I bought re3 at presale
You still have to buy Re 4 Remake and its still 60 dollars. Another dumb take.
@@jackjax7921the point is u get ur money’s worth. U can’t count separate ways as $70.
@@jackjax7921 ok enough you buffoon your paying for a full game with a story mode that atleast 5 hrs with tons of replay ability and then your getting atleast 3 hrs of dlc just because you don't like the game doesn't mean that you should whine about this so much
@@jackjax7921If anyone or anything here is dumb, it's you, buddy. The point of the comment was that a damn $10 DLC has more content in it than a $60 game, which is honestly embarrassing.
Seperate ways wasn't in the Original RE4.
When the game released on Gamecube, it didn't exist.
If you bought that version, and wanted to play separate ways, then you would have had to buy the whole game again much later on PS2 for $60.00.
If you didn't have a PS2, then you would have to buy one of those too.
$50
In my opinion, SW being 10$ is more than fair. It's a large DLC, and has alot of replayability. The voice acting of Ada and Wesker was a problem for me in the beginning, but now it's grown on me. I actually prefer the new voice of Ada. In my opinion, the more "emotionless " voice fits with the darker, less cheesy tone of the RE4R. And as for the yellow paint, I have nothing to say. The guy who started complaining about it in the first place had nothing better to do with his life and was just looking for a reason to complain. That's all from me😅😅 Great vid RC. See U in the next one💪🏻🍻
It's honestly very fair considering originally you had to buy a new version to get it.
@@GunmetalEar Exactly. And let's not even mention RE3R. To be honest, I liked it. But tha lack of content was off putting. Capcom sold it as a full game. It's more than fair that Separate Ways costs $10, given the fact that it's longer than the full game of RE3R. lol💀
@@scarlet-tuber5425 truuu
@Reggiezombie Ok. First of all, I said I liked the RE3R, even if it was short, I did move on. And secondly, the voice acting was never a "problem ". As I stated, I like the new voices. Maar nee, jy is seker een van die dom konte wat ook nie kan fokken lees nie. So hou jou bek, jou grot rot😘🙄
I think in seperate ways the new ada fits more but I still don't Like the recasting. It's not Lilly's fault she isn't Tara strong the thing is with va is that its not about doing impressions it helps but it's about being able to voice a charater that sounds different but jermy irons didn't put on a voice for scar he preformed scar with his actual voice. It's not her fault she was miscasted.
Also you cant blame voice actors for taking the role. If I was a voice actor and I would be stupid to not take opportunities.
The new wesker is because dc Douglas did some stuff I won't explain but it makes sense why he was not wesker in re4r they definitely should of used the dead by day light voice actor but new wesker it's a casting thing.
Now I think they should of gone with the Dbd guy for weskin. And should fo stuck with re2r adas voice. Regardless I think its a casting thing.
Although lily should learn to not just label it as racism. Yes lily the new ada called the critics racist for thinking. To be fair she got a lot of unnecessary hate but she should learn to just understand that people just want ada to sound like ada
I honestly love the yellow paint in re games. Idk it just feels like it has character to it and is good game design
I do kinda get the yellow paint thing. Like, do we really need to have ladders marked to know you can climb them?
yeah right??
I think $10 for a great DLC is actually a good price, unlike the Resident Evil Villiage DLC that cost about $20 for 3 DLC (2 of them were just extras and 1 story) that I didn't agree with the price
I love how this DLC came together, and filled in all the places we couldn't see, or traveled to on Leon's run! It was truly fun, and I must have played it, at least a dozen times! Next I'm hoping for a remake of Code Veronica! Are you listening Capcom?
That DLC was outstanding. Great value for the price and genuinely makes the story of the main game better.
I can see this is the best dlc I have played I enjoyed it so much did everything and still playing it people complaining for everything this always has been like this and it won't change I feel so bad capcom giving us amazing remakes plus it's just a 9,99$ if it was EA it would've been 50$
The ‘R’ in RE4R is the main highlight, its a REMAKE. Its not a remaster, its to REMAKE the details from the original that didn’t make much sense at first and is enhancing and redefining the series 25 years in the making.
It's not a remake, it's a REIMAGINING
And somehow the remake still can't top the original
@@BlackThief843 If you want to experience the original game, play the original game 🙃
@@flaminh0tsushi why would I need to experience the original game when I never said anything negative about the remake? Lol
Wait, people are genuinely mad that Seperate Ways costs 10 bucks? I thought that was an absolute steal for how much content you get.
They're forgetting seperate ways was never a part of the original version of re4, it was added in later versions. So people who bought the first re4 would then have to buy a new console and a new copy of re4 to play separate ways, which im guessing would be alot more than 10 dollars.
I gotta admit I'm one of those against the yellow paint, like I'd like to find out thing by myself you know. But it's not like I really hate it either. People complain way too much about everything.
I can’t even lie I found this DLC way harder than the original game.
It was definitely harder, but i actually liked that about it tbh
I Just wish they put the same effort in the re3 remake. This DLC is incredible and Fun. Glad they put some Leon's sections to her part. Was cooler see Ada at the laser part.
Yeah but the fans that are s******* over RE4 remake or the same reasons we never got DLC for RE3 because they did the same thing but worse
@@yodaghost2694 sorry capcom ruined re3r the fans just helped put the nails in the coffin.
@@tdenzel101 resident evil 3 on the PS1 was basically should have just been DLC. They added stuff to the remake. It's complicated. When are RE3 first came out with the remake. I loved it. It was a great game. I have a platinum but now that time has passed I can't sit down and play it anymore. I I can't bring myself to do it anymore. I don't know. It's weird. I love resident evil. I love most of the story but now that I'm older it's just different. But yes you're not wrong. They did put the f****** nails in the coffin because they already had plans to do DLC for carlos's story and because people wanted to complain we didn't get it
@@yodaghost2694 it was no way for capcom to fix the game even if they gave the dlc for free fans was pissed with the main game due to the cut content and how they made nemesis feel they did him dirty in the remake and i cant forgive them for that.
@@tdenzel101 see that logic is what I have an issue with because it's the same logic where a lot of metal gear solid fans are coming from right now wanting to say stupid stuff like that. Oh they cut consent. They said the same thing for RE4 which again constant wasn't cut. It was just shifted to another side. Stop complaining. You don't like it. Don't play it. Don't like it. Don't buy it but this day and age where people think that they are entitled to sit here and get what they deserve. You want it get off your butt and go develop it but wait. No you can't do that. You need to wait for modders to sit here and make it better for you. Because you don't understand anything about coding. Stop complaining if you don't like something, just don't play it or don't buy it. You're not entitled to it as far as DLC goes. No, they buster their ass their company. They need to sit here and get paid for it. I have no issue paying 10 20 bucks for your DLC especially if it comes with extra content. The only time I don't agree with it is if it's a costume that does absolutely nothing for me. But if it is giving me two three different hours worth of gameplay, I don't mind paying 20 bucks
my only complaint is Ada's meelee attack sound, its dull and the neck breaks sound is so rare, Leon's is still satisfiying tho
11:42 Honestly I agree with this take. Is it a big deal and genuinely impacts my enjoyment of the game? No, not at all. But I do find it silly they slapped yellow paint on all the boxes, ladders and platforms to make it extremely obvious where to go. Of course it's to help the player but it's already fairly obvious and it hurts the art design a little tbqh.
dont ask questions , just consume product and then get excited for next product
I totally love this DLC, I do not understand why still got someone complain about it...
i will say in regard to everything you addressed. I do feel like I wish the yellow paint on the boxes or ladders etc was a little less obvious. Like it isn't that big of a deal to me at all but I do remember feeling like I wish that it was something that was only on certain difficulties or an option you could just turn off. Again, not a huge deal but it would be cool to have that option to be turned off if you're going for a more classic approach of just figuring things out without the yellow paint.
Fun fact. People complain about yellow paint in resident evil. 4. In mirror's edge all the parkour routes were highlighted in bright vivid red. So you knew where to go and not get lost.
It doesn’t matter if it is 10$ or 6$ that dlc should have been in the base game from the start as it was in the original version.
I disagree about taking out Assignment Ada. Your mention of "taking out a rock" is a false equivalency. One background item missing is not equal to an entire game mode being left out.
Its part of the original game that was removed. It wouldnt have taken much to add it back in. It wouldve been a nice little added unlockable at the end of the main campaign until Seperate Ways could come out. Use it as a way to unlock additional bonus items.
I think the missing beats from RE3 started this whole missing content issue. I think everyone can agree RE3 remake was a missed oppurtunity. With how much love and respect was paid with the RE2 remake, with added beats, costumes and items, any missing content in remakes was always going to be an issue for fans of the original.
10 bucks for what we got in Seperate Ways truly is a bargin, it added a lot of replay value and i disagree with the sentiment it is a waste of money.
But your arguments for the removal of Assigment Ada is its own hot take.
I haven’t gotten any of the remakes because they take out to much content and change dialogue the only one that I did get was RE remastered it’s not that hard to remaster a game leave the story and dialogue the same and update the controls
Hey, great video.
BTW what is the reshade config u used for the original re4 gameplay?
I don’t remember exactly which config I used. That gameplay is a few weeks old haha
The thing that threw me off is how Wesker hires Ada to get the Amber sample, yet he shows up twice. Once he saves you from the villagers when you pass out, then on the island, when he gives you that briefcase to blow up the island. We all know he has powers, so if he can just show up whenever he wants, why not get the sample himself instead of relying on Ada? This is just a question I want to know if anyone has a good one because if he just did it himself, he'd have the Amber as well as Krausers body which he ends up having in the end credits.
And before anyone says if he did it himself, there'd be no separate ways I know that I'm just questioning his reasons for it and wanting to get an answer if there is one or if they just added him in for fun
Staying anonymous more than likely. Similar to kingpin from daredevil or diavolo from jojo part 5. OR perhaps using his power too much takes a toll on him, we saw in re5 he needed an injection every now and then, either or.
I still have not yet played the RE4 Remake myself, for I am still waiting to see if a “Gold Edition” comes out. But judging from my impressions, it looks like a very solid remake which surprisingly justifies its existence and has proved my belief wrong, that modern Capcom can’t/won’t ever do an RE remake fully right (it just makes me wish RE2 and especially RE3 got the same love from Capcom).
If I were to nitpick anything about the RE4 Remake, it would be limited to minuscule things like a few weapons/bonuses being left out (namely incendiary grenades, P.R.L. 412, and a couple costumes for Ashley/Ada), plus a few isolated things the original seems to have done better (like Salazar having more interaction with Leon, the original’s Novistadors being more threatening, the original U-3’s chase across the container rigs being more dynamic than Martinico’s chase, etc.). But even so, the RE4 Remake with its “Separate Ways” expansion appears to add/improve so much more that it outweighs any small drawback I might personally have.
As for “Assignment Ada”, that mode felt like a mere prototype demo for “Separate Ways” anyway. So the RE4 Remake’s more fleshed-out SW seems to already give more than enough content cover the original’s AA/SW modes combined. Granted, I still think AA could have been a worthwhile addition to the remake, if its gameplay was more differentiated from SW. But I won’t consider its absence to be a notable downgrade, given what I just stated beforehand.
It's so funny people are complaining because Separate Ways "was in the base" game, when it actually wasn't in the original GameCube version at all. Peeps had to rebuy the entire game again, at full price and on a different system, when it was released for PS2 just to bloody play it! 😂
So in a 10 dollar DLC, I finished all challenges, achievements and maxed out all weapons in about 35 hours. In the RE3 remake, I did it in 21 hours, which is 40 dollars as of today. I am not criticizing RE3 I just don't know why the 10 dollar prize tag is a problem for many players for a dlc that offers so much.
I wish they would include original versions of these ganes with the remakes. Would be great for new fans to see what the orignals were like and a big selling point.
Just play the original then lol
The Medievil remake actually did that. After 100% the game, you can actually unlock the original game.
to be fair to the first complaint in this video: Professional mode (which I've beaten at least 5 times on the main story. I don't need to git gud) is complete bullshit in this game. it's poorly balanced, but since hardcore is too easy you just have to deal with the cheap shots, stunlocks and terrible controls on professional
Skill issue
Yeah i agree although i kinda think the bs makes the experience more interesting, than the painfully easy original at least. Thats how i see it but when i do my S+ runs... thats where the problems start.
Jk about the skill issue lol but honestly I kinda like how it’s balanced
THIS DLC WAS PHENOMENAL AND I STILL PLAY IT AS OF NOW. SO FUN!!!
1:17 I'm not sure if you read that review correctly. They weren't complaining about Ada's dynamic with Leon specifically or (I'm guessing) that she isn't cool and collected depsite being on a mission. It's that she displays several, seemingly very different dynamics in Separate Ways which makes her portrayal/characterization seem inconsistent.
@@_Mista_X It's in the timecode I posted in my commment
I agree that the yellow paint sticks out too much, but I play on PC.
So the first thing I did is to download a mod that replaces the yellow paint with little Los Illuminados logos on breakable objects.
Why Capcom didn't do this in the first place I don't know, but it's only a problem if you play on consoles.
They seem to not know that seperare ways wasnt in the base game at launch, seperarate ways was added later for the ps2 release
I like the DLC better than the main game. I do wish Ada had a couple more weapons and/or outfits, but overall I liked it. I'm on my third playthrough of it on Normal, then off to Hardcore or Professional to unlock the Chicago Sweeper.
I honestly liked Ada's voice actress. She has always been kinda disconnected in a sense and I thought that was great about her performance.
Confused, you got 2 handguns and 2 snipers, but only one shotgun. Wish they'd give her another one after completing the main story
@@sirnickels9979 I agree. At least the crossbow was unique to her part.
Agree, played the main story once, and that’s it. It’s fun , but the separate ways, straight from the beginning it’s fantastic. Actually now i see Leon’s mission is like a joke(in my opinion). Running here and there just for “Ashley” while knowing almost nothing about the surrounding situation.Wesker,Ada,Luis, Saddler and other character is doing a really huge thing that can change how the world in the future. Ada with securing the Amber, while saving Leon . Wesker with his ambition to conquer the world. Overall a 10/10 DLC for me, the pace is just perfect. Many of the stories got revised and become better than the original. Sadly Luis which is really cool in the Remake died in the story. Overall Really love the game
*Ya’ll DEFINITELY beefed up the chest in photoshop for the thumbnail* 💀
Having different opinions is bad thing now apparantly....
The only cool thing about assignment Ada was simply Ada’s tactical uniform that I wanted to just use and with the power of mods on pc I can due that. People really just complain for no reason 😂
they cut this stuff out because casuals like you still buy it and put even more money in the ingame shop or "dlc"and they will defend million dollar company that rips them of just think about the wepon upgrade unlock cards
It would have been nice if it was free for the collectors edition. The one thay came with the Leon statue. But that never got a PC version which is why i bought it for both ps5 and pc
Cool video RapidCrafter I had a lot fun playing SW and completing it on the 21st back in September also I subscribed to your channel👍
I feel like Capcom really got mad respect for their fans by making these remakes. I, like many others was introduced to OG Re4 when I was a kid, and as an adult I got overloaded with joy when the Re4 remake got announced. This remake really brought a new light to my life in a symbolic way, hats off to Capcom. Haters, you're small time.
People always mention how seperate ways in the original was free and it costs $10 now... seperate ways wasn't free. The game released on gamecube first and seperate ways was only included on the ps2 port after, which required people to buy the entire game over again...
Ah please video games has been using paint to highlight claimable objects for years just like in real life where you detect what you can grab and what you can’t when rock climbing and scaling up objects like buildings.
Seperate Ways is just more remake content for those players who really enjoyed the base game and plan on playing it for years to come. If you're the type of person to play a game once and consider it over and done with then of course you're gonna want everything for free. The yellow paint debate is completely unrelated to the dlc. I don't have any strong opinions about it but I do think the yellow paint could be removed without any issue. The paint is only "useful" the first playthrough and after that you should have a rough idea of where boxes and ladders are without needing to have yellow everywhere. It is a game mechanic that becomes outdated/unnecessary the moment you start your second playthrough.
The Separate Ways DLC with Ada, is One of the best games ever let alone DLC , it mirrors the main game and unfolds and lets you see Ada clearing the path for Leon , its so clever to show you what happen and Ada is ultra cool with a faster combat plus The Grapple gun , so cool all for $10 , Its a Superb story toxtie in Leon's route , i think its as good as the main game,cos of its fast pace
Well Done Capcom 👏 👏👏👏 Resident Evil Games are some of The Best Games being made these days
The guy complaining about the yellow paint is probably the same guy who sniffs it.
3:17 the main reason is that it was included in the ports that came out before the remake for free and we weren’t charged extra for it heck I’m pretty sure that the ports for ps4 and Xbox one were going for 40 dollars before the remake! The fact is that they intentionally cut out both this dlc and mercenaries and the latter was included in the GameCube release. It’s more of the garbage of taking out parts that should be there at release and charging/making costumers wait for it.
4:41 I'm pretty sure they are talking about "IT" (the boss) and the laser room being removed from the remake unlike the original and then later added into seperate ways to "make money out of you". Either way I'm happy "It" is back, was a great boss fight!
Here is my hot take. I think all the cut content that was added back in Separate Ways was not up to the same quality as the original.
It was cool to have the Gondola and Laser Hallway return, even the U3 which was my favorite boss fight in the original (well the first half of it anyways). And I gotta say I was very underwhelmed with some of the choices made.
Like I do think the U3 in the remake wasn’t a bad boss fight, I just think not having the Escape Room segment made it kind of boring.
The Gondola was more or less the same and I liked it in the remake my only gripe I wish it was a little longer.
As for the laser hallway, I think this would have been a good time to add more variety in the quick time events instead of just having me press the same button to get through every laser beam.
That being said though, Ada’s gameplay is really fun. The puzzles were actually getting my brain working, and this expansion surprised me with the scenarios it put me in with the new tools. Grappling Hook is really fun, they added the classic dress as an alt. (I wish it was one for one but whatever it’s fine), and they even added Leon’s RPD outfit along with extra Mercenaries content
9/10
I played the original RE4 as well as RE4r day one and the remake is superior in every way. Also, I agree, the original Separate Ways was rushed and a bit choppy while the remake is way more consistent and flows well to the main game. I was disappointed with RE3r but I think Capcom got the message and did not disappoint with RE4r and Separate Ways. $10 for DLC this good is well worth it and I say, Capcom needs to keep putting out amazing remakes as in betweens for the mainline games. Can’t wait for RE5 and RE6 Remakes (both of which need to be toned down in the action and increased in the horror) as well as CV. I am still hoping for an RE Engine remake of RE0 and RE1 (RE0 needs to be reworked entirely to be more consistent with RE1).
I also hope that Capcom one day decides to bite the bullet and put out a proper RE3 remake that is more in line with the original. Or at least a Directors cut, adding in a lot of the cut material.
They all sound spoiled and then complain just so they can feel good.
Original separate ways storyline was much better.
But the gameplay in the remake was better and more fun to play
Regardless I give the DLC an 8.5/10
All the people bit**ing about $10 price don’t realize that even though SW was free in the original RE4 on PS2, it wasn’t even included in the original Gamecube version and the PS2 version and other versions were released later… Not to mention the new SW is miles better than the original
Lol i agree that reused locations and assets are not very fun and Separate Ways didn't have any new enemy types with the exception of bosses. Still It's fun to traverse locations from end to start and it still blew my expectations. 10 doubloons for a dlc which is unironically more than half of the base game length.
Under the mayo's take on Elden Ring and God of War were hilarious lmao
Nah but Ada and Leon have ZERO chemistry throughout the game
so her being sweet and smooth with Luis is kinda yuck
Been here since the Minecraft and hive days, glad RUclips’s going well manny ❤️
Ayyye thanks man!
If its free i of course wont complain but the way i see it is if we get fun new content and have to pay for it, id rather pay and have that content vs them not making content because if i have a say, id rather pay to have content than not have it at all. And ten bucks was a steal imo for this dlc. Hell id have paid 20 for it. My only complaint and its not really a huge deal to me is there isnt an assignment ada outfit to choose but again thats not that big of a deal. We got so much out of it and she got 2 more outfits options anyways. If anything this kind of makes me want a game where Leon and Ada work together as a couple who are on the same team. Sure it would change their dynamic but for the better I think. I mean he's a trained agent and shes an excellent spy. The 2 of them go well together.
0:22 soundtrack name?
One thing that is wrong here is the OG RE4 was released on the Gamecube not the PS2 (being one of the few exclusives on Nintendo's console) and the Gamecube version didn't include either Separate Ways or Assignment Ada either. Those extras were added when the game was ported over to the PS2, which I believe allowed them keep the price slightly up for a game that had already been out for a while...which is no different than selling you DLC in my humble opinion.
As for the yellow paint, that is a weird hill to die on really. Could they have added an option to remove it? Sure, they even added it in Shadow of the Tomb Raider to remove ledge highlights but they didn't so it is what it is...don't feel it affects the game.
I'm still waiting for the re3 remake to finish it's cut content
Me too.
Resident evil definitely has changed over the years BUT it still holds true to the REAL fans. It has survival mechanics for a reason. I have been playing resident evil since 1997 and not one game is the same besides generic zombies. Each game has its advantages and disadvantages. I love that capcom is reviving thier old IP’s to fit the more newer games. If resident evil is a pinnacle in the horror gaming scene. it’s not for everyone.
I haven't even PLAYED the remake at all and yet I already fell in love with it. It just warmed my heart to see more effort put into this remake than any other remake. Seeing people whine about yellow paint and average voice acting just irks me. It's a game. Not a 5-star dining experience.
I have only ever played the old RE4 on Gamecube, so I never knew about Separate Ways, since I just finished the remake last week, I guess I will check out the DLC when it is on sale 😂
I like the separate ways DLC but I feel like they should take a break from remaking numbered games
I know they probably won't but I feel like they should remake one
Re5 remake wouldn’t even make sense. It’s basically a sequel to re1, which is over 20 years old now.
That cod bundle argument was straight on point 😅
The majority of fans these days feel like they just got into it. They certainly talk like it. At least they ended up getting the whole game in the end. Can't say the same for 2 and 3 remakes. 2 cutting extreme battle mode and replacing it with ghost survivors was baffling like 3 missing half the game and cutting mercs. Was surprised 4 remake got mercs tho it's a joke. Way too easy I been playing 5 and 6 mercs since both released and I comboed my first attempt in 4 remake. Thought they were gonna add a no mercy mode to it
I think this iteration of Separate Ways is flat out better than the OG. Sure, both of them have Ada re-treading familiar ground, but there's definitely less of it in the remake. It's good that it doesn't have a Krauser boss re-fight, I found that to be a little lazy in the OG. It's was pretty good overall, more of the same, but Remake was great and getting some more of that for 10 bucks is perfectly fine with me. The only thing I didn't much care for was a couple of story elements they changed that didn't really pan out.
Like, Ada getting infected didn't really turn in to anything significant. I like the extra banter and expanded characterization with Luis but it seems like Ada's infection was just an excuse for her to not take the sample when Luis got it and leave. Also, having Wesker physically present was a bit of a head-scratcher. Unless I missed something, it really didn't change anything and they didn't do anything cool with it (I was expecting a Wesker/Saddler meeting somewhere).
Lily Gao's portrayal of Ada still comes off a little flat but it's decent. I really like the much more menacing tone for Wesker in the remake and opposed to the sinister, almost cartoon villain sound in the original. And having Ada actually talk to the merchant is hilarious, as equally hilarious as the fact that he seems to have a crush on her because he's hiding all this extra merchandise from Leon.
If there was one real criticism I could direct at Separate Ways, it would be that I don't think it was necessary to give the stuff they cut from OG RE4 to Ada's scenario here. U3, the laser hallway, etc I felt were all appropriate cuts from the original game, so I was wondering if the devs always intended for that stuff to be for Ada or if it was included in Separate Ways as a response to backlash over their exclusion from Leon's campaign.
I think the funniest thing about these complaints about it being released as DLC is that IIRC separate ways didn't even come out till the PS2 version meaning you had to buy a whole sperate console and version of the game to the OG GameCube version
I had absolutely no idea this DLC came out.
I loved the DLC!!! I love ada! ❤️
I was just happy that they didn't make her less attractive and kept her high heels even if it was a boot version! lol
I thought 10 bucks was cheap compared to what some gaming companies charge for a DLC. It was good, it was longer then I thought it would be. Nothing is perfect, I feel like people are really fishing to find something wrong!
People who say games suck either A) Really trash at it, B) Hate to hate or C) Mommy and Daddy didn't buy it for them
@RapidCrafter I very much enjoyed this remake more than the original honestly an RE 4 wasn't my favorite game series that goes to Resident Evil Revelations 2. But I'm going to go on a bit of a essay here on my opinion of this game. I genuinely like this game I have no problem with the tank controls or fix camera angles I feel like that really suits in this series but that's gone but I'd say the problem I have with this game legitimate is just the smaller mechanical problems which can easily be fixed. grabs doing instant damage, I don't mind the Crouch button in the game being used for dodging but the problem with using it is that a grabs are not programmed as high attacks( a good example being the granados able to grab you and Krauser's grab attack) so the mechanic for the crotch button feels inconsistent.( this becomes a very apparent in professional mode and sometimes in hardcore but that's not too big of a problem in that difficulty) there's no invincibility when certain actions which leads to cheap damage. And they really need to fix stagger in hits done when it characters get hit. And I don't mind that one shot doesn't stagger enemies in the original. But I would not like it to be random as it should be I could shoot one dude 4 times in the head and have no effect and sometimes they could run to my bullets like they have armor on when my hits should be staggering them. This is my only problem with the game but I still like it. I say this because I want to give good criticism without being absolutely negative about it and I feel like these are small things that could be fixed if giving good criticism about it. if you read this I would like to hear your opinion on this( forgive me if this is too long of opinion)
I’m surprised it’s $10 it should be more because of the details and the other stuff
It's a great dlc and totally worth 10 bucks, but I agree with the VA thing, she is emotionless most of the time, like she didn't really wanted to do it at all.
4:30 nah this dude is reviewing the dlc with RE6 as a reference, which I never thought would be a thing as of today lol
Re6 has got the best moves in the series
Don't they know that it was a game cube exclusive and the separate ways wasn't there it was added to the ps2.
I frankly don't have many complaints about the DLC. Really only thing I'm annoyed by is that while Mendez and Saddle got to do something in the DLC, Ramon didn't. With all the cut out scenes between him and Leon in the OG they could've easily made those for Ada and Ramon instead. How cool would it have been if Ada does the whole throw the knife at Ramon's hand thing and that's why Pesanta is chasing her.
Yellow paint takes out the exploration in PS1 days you have to figure it out where to go and you can interact with.
too hard? lmao
The only thing i can say about the DLC is : the creators said 'oh sh$t lets give the fans what they want because we forgot to put it in!"
0:22 masterpiece of a song
I've played the new DLC and honestly? I liked that the content was longer. Ada's playstyle was actually fun and different enough from Leon for it to feel fresh. Sure, the areas weren't new but anyone that played the original RE 4 would know why. I mean, it even states in the DLC plot description that it's Ada going around the same area as Leon where she crosses paths with him at times and works in the background. It's telling the player what she was doing the entire time. Granted, the game would have been fine without us having to know more about what Ada was doing other than the obvious but it was nice. Sure, the voice actress could use some work on her character but it wasn't so game breaking that it distracted me from the DLC content, itself. Price tag is actually fine in my opinion.
As for DLC in general though? I come from the OG era of RE. I'm used to the game ALREADY having everything the game is supposed to have. Not this "Oh, pay for DLC outfits" when I'm used to the outfits being something you always unlocked base game :p I mean, granted, you still DO get free costumes to unlock but...yeah, not a fan of that when it comes to things like that since weapons and outfits should be just unlockable content. Story DLC though, fine with that especially with the amount of content they provided for this one as it feels worth the bucks. It's definitely better than the OG's Ada story content...if you could even call it that.
Anyway, just my two cents. All in all, Separate Ways worth the $10. And it's not asking much. I mean, they could be like Kingdom Hearts 3's Square Enix asking for $50 just to re-add characters that should have been in the base game : D Be happy Capcom didn't. Now...if only Capcom will just remake Dino Crisis and Code Veronica, I can die happy T_T
I just wish the pistol suppressor would be a thing like weskers gun on mercenaries
Best DLC ive played for anything in a long time. The extra time as Ada got me to actually like the new Ada voice. A lot of the content that was originally cut showing up was amazing and some of it being expanded on even more made the 10 bucks worth it.
