It's funny that the remake Salazar design is quite changed but the dolls that you have to destroy keep the original design of Salazar. Such a nice detail.
So did the fire-breathing statue on the clock tower Which makes you wonder if they originally planned to have Salazar with tricorn hat instead of of the one with Victorian wig that we got in the final game
Something that I loved about the remake is that Saddler behaves more as if he were the verdict pope of the plagues and acts in a more sinister way, in the original he literally plays along with Leon as "the villain monologue with the American hero" and at least I didn't take it too seriously in the original
He should've gotten WAY more screentime in the remake, though. And as he said in the original, leon "entertains" him, so of course he would play along.
Remake has improved the gameplay while the original had the soul. Enough with the fighting. Im glad that they revived re4 with such a good remake that is in line with modern games. Yes we can always go back to the classic to experience that roller coaster of a ride.
15:47 & 17:17 i know this is such a small detail, but i absolutely love how nick gave a really similar delivery of this line, like that same breathiness on the word "where" i just love stuff like that
You know. For all the people saying the remake has a better story, there are a couple plotholes I noticed that the original game does not have. 1. Why did Salazar send the Verdugo after Leon? In the original. Leon makes it clear to Salazar as a taunt that he survived his death trap, pissing him off to the point that Salazar ordered one of his Verdugo to go and kill Leon. In the remake, Leon gave no indication of his survival to Salazar but Salazar just sent his goon regardless? One could argue it was to check to make sure Leon was dead but if that's the case.... 2. Then what happened to the second Verdugo? We all know that Salazar has two Verdugo bodyguards. In the original, one is presumably killed by Leon in the sewers after Salazar sends him there, the other is later fused with Salazar for his boss fight. In this remake however, the Verdugos are not only rarely seen with Salazar compared to the original, but the second one just up and vanishes without a trace, not even present during Salazar's bossfight.
Dude list one single “plot hole” and that somehow solidifies the original as having a better story lmao. Still waiting for the other “couple” of plot holes aswell.
@@TheCyclicGamer I completely forgot to post the copy/paste mybad, but I touched on the second one in one of the files one of the verdugo refers to itself as “U-III” which more than likely gets taken down by Ada during all of the chaos towards the end. But again I do not think any of that fully crowns the original as superior story wise.
Nothing can replace the OG RE4.. It will be forever my favourite game but Yeah In RE4 R I do like gameplay, character developments of Luis and Ashley, graphics and new stuff but the sad thing is they totally changed Leon and Ada's Personality and they cut many scenes.
The memories i had playing the original with my cousin and brother both of who i no longer speak to due to life circumstances but the memories will never be forgot:(..
I understand why they changed some of the dialogue, lmao Saddler was goofy in the original, especially the Hollywood comment lol, Most scenes of the remake are great but some of the originals should have been kept or maybe mixed some of the new aspects with the original, like the original church scene could have been kept where Saddler is there talking to them but when Leon and Ashley look at the villagers approaching he vanishes, but overall the remake is amazing also the fact they gave Leon way more one liners, while also making the game creepier
Og cutscenes and dialogue were way better. -El Gigante scene was way better - Bitorez Mendez transformation and fight were better - Krausers voice and imo the qte knife fight was better - salazar and saddler dont talk to you anymore on the radio so theres no build up to their fight. - game is dark to hide the lack of detail+ no music ambience -Leons deaths are less graphic and lame - the re-use of the brutes (cowhead) (Bullhead) (Pig head) is lazy af - Last but not least they had a chance to make the u-3 fight better and more intense but cut it out completely.

@Cat Having Fun I have. And don't get me wrong I love all the stupid cheesy dialogue also. With saddler and Salazar giving you phone calls even though it's completely fucking ridiculous. But this easily stands alongside OG for me. Debating which one is better or worse is stupid when they're both so high quality and have their own unique aspects.
@Cat Having Fun I played the original expecting, and tbh i still feel like the remakes is way better in every aspect, also u can't mute the music sometimes
I don't know why but the actress in Ashley remake's face in real life is pretty but in the game I see her ugly, and Ada well is horrible both in voice and face to be honest, Ada RE6 is the best.
I think my issue with the remake's cutscenes is that they are paced too quickly. There's no time for tension, and most dialogue feels like it's being forced through rather than played up with any degree of severity. A lot of the VA in the remake feels phoned in or just delivered too quickly to feel in any way impactful. The general gameplay of the Remake has been pretty good so far in my playthrough, but the experience is broken down quite a bit by how rushed everything feels. It's quite a bit like RE3 Remake/RE2 Remake in that regard, where it feels like the original with some things missing and a lot zipped over quickly. I mean, honestly, if having this good of visuals means the game is rushed to hell and back like this... then I don't think it's worth it. I'd have rather had RE4 Remake with about RE2 Remake's visual level but with more care taken than the more beautiful visuals it has now but with all of the heart and pacing sucked out. Kind of a shame. But I guess after how many people glossed over RE2 Remake's flaws... I guess I'm not surprised they could get away with it here as well. All they had to do for most was pass the very low bar of beating RE3 Remake and reach close to RE2 Remake's "just breaking the minimum bar" and then it basically would be deemed a "good" remake, I guess? Idk, I'm not too surprised, I guess.
It's very rushed sadly, I noticed two of the game bosses transformations are gone... Just look at the mendez fight, big explosion and suddenly the transformed version spawns in, while in the original you could see the whole burning, slow transformation etc... Also in salazar boss fight, he goes off screen because they don't have the time to make the transformation, and just make him show up after. It's details like these that just show how rushed the game is, I'm yet to find many others
Finally someone who talks about this, there is a lot of talking shit and tell you someone who gets carried away by nostalgia and defending the Remake calling it a work of art, a better remake than Dead Space, etc, pure nonsense , but they sold us something that literally "could be better"
It's not that I don't feel it, it's missing a boss there, and they didn't even add one to replace U3's position in Leon's route, add more sections? Etc? (They didn't even do that on a large scale, they just respected the original too much by redesigning the old sections of the original despite several cuts and therein lies the problem) I'm not looking to improve everything, add new things, gameplays like Shinji did with the mines at the time and where unfortunately he was more limited with the console, but they don't give a shit right? Well, fuck that, they didn't add it because it involved more work or they were lazy, they cut out a boss, it's that simple, no matter how many sections you add it's not the same as a Boss, and one so scarce of strong bosses like RE4 specifically , even the other thing you tell me, if true, adding U3 to Ada's campaign is clearly a lack of creativity, it also cuts a boss from the main canon, a cut, no matter how good it is, is still that, a cut, They have to see very well the material that is made or sold to them, not to consume or accept anything for the simple fact of making a graphic leap, could it be better? It could have been, despite that the game is acceptable but if it were in the hands of Shinji Mikami, the original author, the game would take a different course and Ada's campaign would have new and innovative bosses, even U3 would receive a brutal redesign, but let's leave it at that there. RE7 and Village were so inspired by RE4 that I thought that the new team would have the goal of crushing the original and innovating in more things that differentiate it from the last RE, but it was not like that, it was a very high bar and they said so themselves but to be a new version it is not so bad, it has its shortcomings and things that can be criticized but that is the least of it they did it well and this time they moderated with the cuts unlike RE3
The problem is that RE4 was never a game that needed a remake. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that most games don't really need remakes and just need ports to modern systems. While there are some things I like in RE4 Remake and there are things I wish I could bring over into the original, it does not replace the original for me. The original had this b-movie campness to it that is practically gone in this remake. As Yathzee said, they turned the campy/serious knob a couple notches towards serious, but a part of what made RE4 so memorable was how little it cared for the seriousness in it's story. It played everything up. The funny thing is, for how serious this story's game tries to be, I noticed one major plothole in this remake that is not in the original; The second Verdugo, what happened to him? In the original, he was fused with Salazar during his bossfight, it was something you actually saw, but in the remake he's just gone, he's not seen anywhere again after Salazar has Ashley drink that dark liquid.
classic > remake u can feel a better direction in so many more scenes than the new one even praising visuals doesn't mean much when they'll get dated too in time ( a year) even voicing is better in classic, Capcom doesn't use unionized VA workers and it shows a big fault u can see goes to the cut lines, so much is toned down to the point of boring, they keep the quips without the understanding of delivery (in most cases) and cause of the rushed cutscene nature, nothing sticks enough to be memorable also doesn't show transformations fully anymore, always cutaways, how did tech near 20 years ago do better here with less, really shows the over confidence of modern games where the branding is strong no matter what so much is watered down and its sad the over praise it gets cause branding
Never played the original, but I absolutely loved the remake. The og seems a lot more goofy and dramatized. It’s more like a hollywood movie flick that doesn’t take itself too seriously. The remake definitely went with a more serious tone that makes it more in line with the newer games in the series. But it still keeps some of the witty dialogue from the og and adds some more corny lines to try to keep the original’s spirit alive. I’m definitely gonna love the og when I play it but I like that the remake doesn’t just make all the characters goofy wisecracks. It’s because it takes itself more seriously that the connections between Luis, Ashley, and Leon feel all the more special and grounded. It also makes the bad guys feel all the more threatening. Overall beautiful remake and I can’t wait to get into the rest of this amazing series.
Yes, but León in the original is much stronger than León in the remake, by far since he was a prodigy and received another type of training and had greater mental maturation than the remake, He never developed a trauma and was a top secret agent, whereas the one in the remake was a random, he never had talent and was a scared kitten until he met Krauser who trained him and improved him somewhat. but he was traumatized by his past, that León is more realistic , more serious and more similar to Chris Redfield, maybe that will make him appear in future installments because the original León was a superhuman
@@walterlopezfloresinfantes2380 They just made it more serious, although seriousness can be more ridiculous than comedy, since using cat ears to have infinite weapons says it all.
It's a shame that many moments were simply cut out, for example, the puzzle with the redirection of the river flow in the village, the second battle with el giant and the gorge, they also cut out the location with funiculars, and maybe something else, the game just flies too fast forward, I got to the castle for 5 hours of playing, despite the fact that I tried not to miss additional tasks and treasures, it's a shame ..
Dude the original, takes less than 5 hours, it takes only 2 to 3 hours to get to the castle, the remake had more puzzles and had to collect key items with boat section you have to ride it and get to different sections, the original has only 1 optional cave, you just have direction to go other side of the island and it keeps moving forward
@@MaxBraver555 And how can you justify the cut boss fight with U3, the puzzle with pictures in the castle, the puzzle where you need to shoot the bottle in the picture, the puzzle for Ashley where you had to solve the puzzle, also the location in the dungeon in the castle became shorter. The location with the mine also takes less time. And at the expense of the village, if you do a speedrun, then in the original 2-3 hours, in the remake I looked for all the secrets and completed all the additional quests and it took 5 hours. They certainly added something new, but they cut out a lot more. And I am silent about the meaningless changes in the cult cutscenes, with the knife thrown at Salazar, the death of Luis, etc.
@@g-force3750 there are new puzzles, like way more puzzle and gathering of key item in the remake than the original, it's not necessarily cut out, it got replaced by totally different that U3 could still make it to Ada scenario, the castle felt very long even without it, heck the mines got expanded. Ashley's section has literally more puzzle than the original, like using the lamp and ringing the bell, it's more of an evironmental puzzle rather than literal puzzle, some things in the remake are more like secrets requiring Ashley's help which remake did more than the original
@@g-force3750Bro, literally none of those things you just mentioned actually added ANYTHING to the original experience. Are you REALLY complaining about them removing you shooting the bottle in the painting? Seriously? You need to understand that just because it was in thr original game, it doesn't mean that it's good. Also, RE4 remake has a different direction and tone than the original, you can't seriously expect them to keep every single thing. If you played the remake, you'll quickly realize that the things that were cut out were replaced by things that were way better.
OMFG! The plaga removal in the remake got me really nervous the first time I watched it! 😰 Must be more painful than the original! The way Ashley screamed and Leon holding her hand during the process really reminds me of childbirth!
I find the original far better because it was clear that the removal was so painful that both Leon and Ashley could barely even scream. Since the parasite was connected to their nerves, I can imagine it felt like having every part of your body in absolute burning agony.
@@TheCyclicGamer Yes, puts them in so much pain they can both moan very sexually however. To each their own but objectively speaking the remake is better.
It's supposed to be excruciatingly painful as Luis' notes mention about the plaga parasite being attached to the host's nerves, but it's weird that Leon's removal scene got pretty much cut cuz he was sleeping.. guess it wasn't painful enough for Leon.
from my critique is that cutscene from re 4 remake is a lack of tension. Too much fast paced and les of suspension moment, also the sfx or the bgm music is not as good as the original.
When its beat for beat for the most part in the cutscenes the OG is filmed wayyy better. Mendez's monster form reveal is much more impactful. In the remake its shot so boring. They also cut a lot of content for the OG. Also revealing Wesker doesn't make any sense because they didn't remake the 1st one. Don't come to me about playing the Original remake. These new players bitch about OG RE4's "tank" movements. They wouldn't play the first one for the fixed camera . I mean they need yellow paint and tape everywhere to know things are interactive . These remakes are deeply flawed because they expect the player, many of which never played an RE game until RE2R, to already have a connection to the characters and plot.
The problem is not them, the proble lies on your inability to play the 2 versions of the first game, and Wesker in the first game was never revealed to have survived, that reveal was in Code Veronica, that’s like complaining about movie sequels that don’t make sense to you just because you just decided to skip the first because it didn’t appeal to you
I'm just gonna drink some tea and enjoy the remake.~ All of you are trying so hard to "it could've been better" and "what ifs". I was worried about the remake not being faithful to the source but it seems I was wrong and this was even better considering it could've been worse than RE3 Remake. Nuff said, All of these opinions don't matter anymore. It didn't save the RE3 Remake, nor any remake that everyone got complaining. I know this era is where videogames are being remade rather than continuing the storyline, but it isn't new. I would rather just enjoy/ignore the remake rather than having the "Back in my days" kind of talk;
Man i know these old sequences to the tip of my fingers I feel like the old ones had that "cinema" thing way more, just like a real movie I love the remake tho
lol I feel the opposite; the old ones seem campy and poorly written now, after playing the new game. I'm constantly thinking, "people don't talk or act like that IRL" while watching the old ones.
@@billmint8122 that's what I tell, discussions in most movies doesn't sound real at all, just like the og cutscenes(movies aren't documentaries), im just telling it uses more the cinema language like cliches or several camera angles, just compare the church cutscenes, the old one has way more tropes. Yeah the new are way better looking, but it wasn't my point
@@Indigo_1001 it uses way more the cinema language, even if the new ones looks indeed way better, there's a way more tropes (look what I just told in my last comment)
Considering Knifes Break and Ammo count is lower, I think it is better that Krauser only has 2 sections of Knife Fights before the transformation instead of five.
Best thing as far as Remake is concerned is the changes in the story and well improved gameplay mechanics. But i can say still i fear to play original more than Remake. There are certain reasons for it. Story: Base of the story is same in both, however, there is some priorities given to certain characters and nerfed some characters in remake. For instance, Ashley is more smarter in remake than original which makes players more relaxed, Luis character was given extraordinary preference, his death was so emotional in remake, than original, this is where remake scores lot. Ada in main game doesn't made an impact, but Separate ways, it was huge thumbs up. In original there will be more connective conversation between Saddler and Leon, it was cut, also in original, Ada and Krauser will have secret dealing, in remake it was also cut. Salazar's appearance in Original was extraordinary, but i didn't like the appearance in remake, that was disappointment. Also good thing is some certain things missing in original like Gondola, Laser room & U3 boss were included in SW remake. Last but not least, the Novistador insects were prioritize more scenes in remake than original. It comes along with saddler in climax both main game and separate ways. Gameplay: Gameplay mechanics was much improved and best than original. Especially Parrying system, though it sounds fun, like parrying against chainsaw doods, it was so nice. Storage system and merchant requests was nice addition. Only disappointment is no PRL laser, it should've been added, also nerfing Handcannon and Chicago sweeper is big disappointment. Other than this, overall everything nice in remake.
@@TheCyclicGamer The original at time had some cringy ass lines and moments. Every character got much better. The remake retains the camp with actually good writing and perfect execution. You are just blinded by nostalgia and can’t see quality.
Love them both, but the remake is definitely better. I destroyed the original and Im gonna play it again eventually, but the remake is insane, I just beat it today.
You know what i just relaize Shouldn't name it Resident Evil 4 Remake since it didnt capture THE ORIGINAL ENERGY just give it difrent name both fan wouldn't argue about it Original RE4 fan like me often out of touch with new Resident evil ramkes suckker opinions And yeah screww you disresepct our fanbase we do the same too
Abit off track but RE4R give you more helping hand interms of level design comapared to Re4 Example In twin gigante fight luis help you distract it in RE4 you are alone In fish stage the watre visual help you to predict the fish location . In original its harder because the water wont help you much only the rope Yeah litelary the most anoying boss "IT" got removed and aded to saperate ways wich is DLC you need to pay. But i digress avareg new generation player cant micro manage bulet and need knife nerf in orfer to be it realistic Yeah this is kinda no brainer you can pary an attack. But im hapy i can shoot while walk then buff the zombie to realy sprint hard its kinda balance it. Verdugo freezing mechanishm still the same altough its less hard because its autisticly predictable
@@Cycu1 okay, i'll take a look. Oh, just 1 more thing if you do make the video: please leave the captions on, or at least for the REmakes (OG RE1 port for DS had captions in cutscenes if you wanna use those). Might really help especially for some people whose first language isn't English
With me and the original and any other older resident evil game in general I find it really hard to play and look at cause old graphics and lighting systems I just find really hard to look at and don’t get me started on those tank controls those are like the worse it makes it almost unplayable for me so I 100% prefer the remake cause it’s pretty it’s nice to look at it’s a lot more fun and the modern controls help A LOT plus the voice acting and story just seem better in the remake in my opinion another thing I like is the toned down romantic stuff between Ashley and Leon like it’s a bad ship I really don’t like it it just seems a little creepy especially with Ashley not looking like an adult at all in the original (Please no hate these are just my opinions don’t be calling me a nut for the new shit just cause I prefer the remake)
heavily changed and censored for the sjws. also salazar sux and many funny dialogues and cutscenes are either deleted or changed to something generic. sad but the original will never be matched

It's very rushed sadly, I noticed two of the game bosses transformations are gone... Just look at the mendez fight, big explosion and suddenly the transformed version spawns in, while in the original you could see the whole burning, slow transformation etc... Also in salazar boss fight, he goes off screen because they don't have the time to make the transformation, and just make him show up after. It's details like these that just show how rushed the game is, I'm yet to find many others
@@andreww8055Yeah i was very disappointed that we couldn't see Mendez transforming. I really don't understand that change.
Finally someone who talks about this, there is a lot of talking shit and tell you someone who gets carried away by nostalgia and defending the Remake calling it a work of art, a better remake than Dead Space, etc, pure nonsense , but they sold us something that literally "could be better"
It's not that I don't feel it, it's missing a boss there, and they didn't even add one to replace U3's position in Leon's route, add more sections? Etc? (They didn't even do that on a large scale, they just respected the original too much by redesigning the old sections of the original despite several cuts and therein lies the problem) I'm not looking to improve everything, add new things, gameplays like Shinji did with the mines at the time and where unfortunately he was more limited with the console, but they don't give a shit right? Well, fuck that, they didn't add it because it involved more work or they were lazy, they cut out a boss, it's that simple, no matter how many sections you add it's not the same as a Boss, and one so scarce of strong bosses like RE4 specifically , even the other thing you tell me, if true, adding U3 to Ada's campaign is clearly a lack of creativity, it also cuts a boss from the main canon, a cut, no matter how good it is, is still that, a cut, They have to see very well the material that is made or sold to them, not to consume or accept anything for the simple fact of making a graphic leap, could it be better? It could have been, despite that the game is acceptable but if it were in the hands of Shinji Mikami, the original author, the game would take a different course and Ada's campaign would have new and innovative bosses, even U3 would receive a brutal redesign, but let's leave it at that there.
RE7 and Village were so inspired by RE4 that I thought that the new team would have the goal of crushing the original and innovating in more things that differentiate it from the last RE, but it was not like that, it was a very high bar and they said so themselves but to be a new version it is not so bad, it has its shortcomings and things that can be criticized but that is the least of it they did it well and this time they moderated with the cuts unlike RE3
The problem is that RE4 was never a game that needed a remake. In fact, I'll go as far as to say that most games don't really need remakes and just need ports to modern systems. While there are some things I like in RE4 Remake and there are things I wish I could bring over into the original, it does not replace the original for me. The original had this b-movie campness to it that is practically gone in this remake. As Yathzee said, they turned the campy/serious knob a couple notches towards serious, but a part of what made RE4 so memorable was how little it cared for the seriousness in it's story. It played everything up. The funny thing is, for how serious this story's game tries to be, I noticed one major plothole in this remake that is not in the original; The second Verdugo, what happened to him? In the original, he was fused with Salazar during his bossfight, it was something you actually saw, but in the remake he's just gone, he's not seen anywhere again after Salazar has Ashley drink that dark liquid.
OG: Knife Throw
RE: Headshot
said it all
classic > remake
u can feel a better direction in so many more scenes than the new one
even praising visuals doesn't mean much when they'll get dated too in time ( a year)
even voicing is better in classic, Capcom doesn't use unionized VA workers and it shows
a big fault u can see goes to the cut lines, so much is toned down to the point of boring, they keep the quips without the understanding of delivery (in most cases) and cause of the rushed cutscene nature, nothing sticks enough to be memorable
also doesn't show transformations fully anymore, always cutaways, how did tech near 20 years ago do better here with less, really shows the over confidence of modern games where the branding is strong no matter what
so much is watered down and its sad the over praise it gets cause branding
The virgin Remake Vs The Chad Original.
Midget vs Granny
Never played the original, but I absolutely loved the remake. The og seems a lot more goofy and dramatized. It’s more like a hollywood movie flick that doesn’t take itself too seriously. The remake definitely went with a more serious tone that makes it more in line with the newer games in the series. But it still keeps some of the witty dialogue from the og and adds some more corny lines to try to keep the original’s spirit alive. I’m definitely gonna love the og when I play it but I like that the remake doesn’t just make all the characters goofy wisecracks. It’s because it takes itself more seriously that the connections between Luis, Ashley, and Leon feel all the more special and grounded. It also makes the bad guys feel all the more threatening. Overall beautiful remake and I can’t wait to get into the rest of this amazing series.
Yes, but León in the original is much stronger than León in the remake, by far since he was a prodigy and received another type of training and had greater mental maturation than the remake, He never developed a trauma and was a top secret agent, whereas the one in the remake was a random, he never had talent and was a scared kitten until he met Krauser who trained him and improved him somewhat. but he was traumatized by his past, that León is more realistic , more serious and more similar to Chris Redfield, maybe that will make him appear in future installments because the original León was a superhuman
@@walterlopezfloresinfantes2380 They just made it more serious, although seriousness can be more ridiculous than comedy, since using cat ears to have infinite weapons says it all.
It's a shame that many moments were simply cut out, for example, the puzzle with the redirection of the river flow in the village, the second battle with el giant and the gorge, they also cut out the location with funiculars, and maybe something else, the game just flies too fast forward, I got to the castle for 5 hours of playing, despite the fact that I tried not to miss additional tasks and treasures, it's a shame ..
Dude the original, takes less than 5 hours, it takes only 2 to 3 hours to get to the castle, the remake had more puzzles and had to collect key items with boat section you have to ride it and get to different sections, the original has only 1 optional cave, you just have direction to go other side of the island and it keeps moving forward
@@MaxBraver555 And how can you justify the cut boss fight with U3, the puzzle with pictures in the castle, the puzzle where you need to shoot the bottle in the picture, the puzzle for Ashley where you had to solve the puzzle, also the location in the dungeon in the castle became shorter. The location with the mine also takes less time. And at the expense of the village, if you do a speedrun, then in the original 2-3 hours, in the remake I looked for all the secrets and completed all the additional quests and it took 5 hours. They certainly added something new, but they cut out a lot more. And I am silent about the meaningless changes in the cult cutscenes, with the knife thrown at Salazar, the death of Luis, etc.
@@g-force3750 there are new puzzles, like way more puzzle and gathering of key item in the remake than the original, it's not necessarily cut out, it got replaced by totally different that U3 could still make it to Ada scenario, the castle felt very long even without it, heck the mines got expanded. Ashley's section has literally more puzzle than the original, like using the lamp and ringing the bell, it's more of an evironmental puzzle rather than literal puzzle, some things in the remake are more like secrets requiring Ashley's help which remake did more than the original
W validation. But don't forget they cut alot from RE2R. RE3R. Now ofc they gonna cut this a crap ton, hopefully not RE5R
@@g-force3750Bro, literally none of those things you just mentioned actually added ANYTHING to the original experience. Are you REALLY complaining about them removing you shooting the bottle in the painting? Seriously? You need to understand that just because it was in thr original game, it doesn't mean that it's good. Also, RE4 remake has a different direction and tone than the original, you can't seriously expect them to keep every single thing. If you played the remake, you'll quickly realize that the things that were cut out were replaced by things that were way better.
1:40:22 i always thought in the og, it was ridiculous that no one noticed an helicopter behind them 😂😂😂
Fun fact if you’re going for high ranks contrary to what guides will tell you cutscenes DO NOT count on your in game timer. I tested it.
@@jollama The 2005 original didn’t have ranks so I don’t understand what you mean
OMFG! The plaga removal in the remake got me really nervous the first time I watched it! 😰 Must be more painful than the original! The way Ashley screamed and Leon holding her hand during the process really reminds me of childbirth!
I find the original far better because it was clear that the removal was so painful that both Leon and Ashley could barely even scream. Since the parasite was connected to their nerves, I can imagine it felt like having every part of your body in absolute burning agony.
@@TheCyclicGamer Yes, puts them in so much pain they can both moan very sexually however. To each their own but objectively speaking the remake is better.
It's supposed to be excruciatingly painful as Luis' notes mention about the plaga parasite being attached to the host's nerves, but it's weird that Leon's removal scene got pretty much cut cuz he was sleeping.. guess it wasn't painful enough for Leon.
@@pappico I wouldn't say sleeping. Unconscious, more like. I mean, he passed out.
remake is 🔥 sticks to the original but has its own charm
I like the original more tbh. But the remake definitely has the better gameplay.
I do like how they fixed Salazar's voice and attitude and Ashley's ai.
El Gigante introduction in the remake is very lazy. Mendez and Salazar transformations too.
from my critique is that cutscene from re 4 remake is a lack of tension.
Too much fast paced and les of suspension moment, also the sfx or the bgm music is not as good as the original.
I like the original voice acting of leon so sexy
Same, lol
I liked the original ones better
No laser hallway in the remake. Gigante L. 💀
I just realized that OG Saddler looks like Richardson from Yakuza 3.
"If you're looking for Ashley, Ramon's taken her up to the ruff."
Honestly I've always felt like Richardson looks like a walmart version of Wesker
Yeah and the Remake Saddler just looks like Ralph Fiennes. ^^
It was awesome when every mutated bosses in remake have their possessed voice effects!
I like both but i like the OG more than remake it felt a bit rush though the voice actors was ok....
When its beat for beat for the most part in the cutscenes the OG is filmed wayyy better. Mendez's monster form reveal is much more impactful. In the remake its shot so boring.
They also cut a lot of content for the OG. Also revealing Wesker doesn't make any sense because they didn't remake the 1st one. Don't come to me about playing the Original remake. These new players bitch about OG RE4's "tank" movements. They wouldn't play the first one for the fixed camera . I mean they need yellow paint and tape everywhere to know things are interactive . These remakes are deeply flawed because they expect the player, many of which never played an RE game until RE2R, to already have a connection to the characters and plot.
Bruh
@@evilfiles2003 St8 up Facts. Cope
The problem is not them, the proble lies on your inability to play the 2 versions of the first game, and Wesker in the first game was never revealed to have survived, that reveal was in Code Veronica, that’s like complaining about movie sequels that don’t make sense to you just because you just decided to skip the first because it didn’t appeal to you
@@MaxBraver555 learn to read and comprehend.
I'm just gonna drink some tea and enjoy the remake.~ All of you are trying so hard to "it could've been better" and "what ifs". I was worried about the remake not being faithful to the source but it seems I was wrong and this was even better considering it could've been worse than RE3 Remake.
Nuff said, All of these opinions don't matter anymore. It didn't save the RE3 Remake, nor any remake that everyone got complaining. I know this era is where videogames are being remade rather than continuing the storyline, but it isn't new.
I would rather just enjoy/ignore the remake rather than having the "Back in my days" kind of talk;

Wait, is Osmund Sadler also Jarl Balgruff from Skyrim?
that voice so familiar, I also think the same haha
Man i know these old sequences to the tip of my fingers
I feel like the old ones had that "cinema" thing way more, just like a real movie
I love the remake tho
lol I feel the opposite; the old ones seem campy and poorly written now, after playing the new game. I'm constantly thinking, "people don't talk or act like that IRL" while watching the old ones.
What?
The new remake legit feels like a movie, while the OG very much feels like video game cutscenes
@@billmint8122 that's what I tell, discussions in most movies doesn't sound real at all, just like the og cutscenes(movies aren't documentaries), im just telling it uses more the cinema language like cliches or several camera angles, just compare the church cutscenes, the old one has way more tropes.
Yeah the new are way better looking, but it wasn't my point
@@Indigo_1001 it uses way more the cinema language, even if the new ones looks indeed way better, there's a way more tropes (look what I just told in my last comment)
But I get I speak to gamers more than cinema heads
lol 47:50 I love how the player knife-kills that one Ganado to prevent him from transforming and yet it still does.
the only problems for me in remake are cutscene cinematic and dialog are kinda boring
You missed a cutscene from the original.
The one where Leon staples Ramon’s to a wall, with a knife.
The entire section with Krauser felt really rushed in the remake not gonna lie.
Considering Knifes Break and Ammo count is lower, I think it is better that Krauser only has 2 sections of Knife Fights before the transformation instead of five.
Remake Salazar was based on Ronald McDonald?
I picked a 2005 game called Resident Evil 4! 😛😜
One more thing the remake did right, HAVING A PLATINUM TROPHY FOR THE FIRST TIME.
Hey numbskull, Gamecube and PS2 did not have trophies, let alone platinums haha
Really? That's all you care about?
@@billmint8122Hey numbskull, forget about the PS3/PS4 versions?
@@TheCyclicGamerYou the one with 7 likes?
Best thing as far as Remake is concerned is the changes in the story and well improved gameplay mechanics. But i can say still i fear to play original more than Remake. There are certain reasons for it.
Story:
Base of the story is same in both, however, there is some priorities given to certain characters and nerfed some characters in remake. For instance, Ashley is more smarter in remake than original which makes players more relaxed, Luis character was given extraordinary preference, his death was so emotional in remake, than original, this is where remake scores lot. Ada in main game doesn't made an impact, but Separate ways, it was huge thumbs up. In original there will be more connective conversation between Saddler and Leon, it was cut, also in original, Ada and Krauser will have secret dealing, in remake it was also cut. Salazar's appearance in Original was extraordinary, but i didn't like the appearance in remake, that was disappointment. Also good thing is some certain things missing in original like Gondola, Laser room & U3 boss were included in SW remake. Last but not least, the Novistador insects were prioritize more scenes in remake than original. It comes along with saddler in climax both main game and separate ways.
Gameplay:
Gameplay mechanics was much improved and best than original. Especially Parrying system, though it sounds fun, like parrying against chainsaw doods, it was so nice. Storage system and merchant requests was nice addition. Only disappointment is no PRL laser, it should've been added, also nerfing Handcannon and Chicago sweeper is big disappointment. Other than this, overall everything nice in remake.
God this remake is perfect
Almost,it's good but almost.
It completely surpasses the original!
Perfect at ruining the charm of the original.
@@TheCyclicGamerthen play the original lol
@@TheCyclicGamer
The original at time had some cringy ass lines and moments. Every character got much better.
The remake retains the camp with actually good writing and perfect execution. You are just blinded by nostalgia and can’t see quality.
The original Luis death scene woulda meant more if he coulda just pronounced his name right lol XD
lewisssss
My only complaint about the Remake is that he appears too little
He? My guy, that's a pronoun
Who is the he you’re referring to?
@@billmint8122 is he talking about Salazar?
Same with that dog
What the hell do you think I am, a mind reader?! He who?!
Resident Evil 4 Remake is my second favourite game
Love them both, but the remake is definitely better. I destroyed the original and Im gonna play it again eventually, but the remake is insane, I just beat it today.
44:56 Never noticed that they sound muffled there despite being in front of Leon out in the open lol
I wish they'd have stayd faithfull to the OG story, they did the game more justice with many improved features though
make video on the

What, you mean compare just the pieces that are matching?

Lip sync is atrocious in the remake.
Only for a few death animations.

You know what i just relaize
Shouldn't name it Resident Evil 4 Remake since it didnt capture THE ORIGINAL ENERGY
just give it difrent name both fan wouldn't argue about it
Original RE4 fan like me often out of touch with new Resident evil ramkes suckker opinions
And yeah screww you disresepct our fanbase we do the same too
I like the Dog part
Abit off track but RE4R give you more helping hand interms of level design comapared to Re4
Example
In twin gigante fight luis help you distract it in RE4 you are alone
In fish stage the watre visual help you to predict the fish location . In original its harder because the water wont help you much only the rope
Yeah litelary the most anoying boss "IT" got removed and aded to saperate ways wich is DLC you need to pay. But i digress avareg new generation player cant micro manage bulet and need knife nerf in orfer to be it realistic
Yeah this is kinda no brainer you can pary an attack. But im hapy i can shoot while walk then buff the zombie to realy sprint hard its kinda balance it.
Verdugo freezing mechanishm still the same altough its less hard because its autisticly predictable
Make a cutscene comparison of the 1st 3 games too. (RE PS1 vs RE GameCube, and RE 2-3 PS1 vs REmakes from 2019-2020)
I'll consider that.
Also some time ago I made already All Jill cutscenes from RE1: ruclips.net/video/9N4gjUnpWEA/видео.htmlsi=rMwUJdrXg3jsv2SS
@@Cycu1 okay, i'll take a look.
Oh, just 1 more thing if you do make the video: please leave the captions on, or at least for the REmakes (OG RE1 port for DS had captions in cutscenes if you wanna use those). Might really help especially for some people whose first language isn't English
You may also want to update this video now with a Separate Ways cutscene comparison, just sayin
Love the remake its more modern and voiced better the og was ok in my opinion
You forget knife duel

I can see the difference, i think
Remake is so bad outside of new Ashley everything is ruined

With me and the original and any other older resident evil game in general I find it really hard to play and look at cause old graphics and lighting systems I just find really hard to look at and don’t get me started on those tank controls those are like the worse it makes it almost unplayable for me so I 100% prefer the remake cause it’s pretty it’s nice to look at it’s a lot more fun and the modern controls help A LOT plus the voice acting and story just seem better in the remake in my opinion another thing I like is the toned down romantic stuff between Ashley and Leon like it’s a bad ship I really don’t like it it just seems a little creepy especially with Ashley not looking like an adult at all in the original
(Please no hate these are just my opinions don’t be calling me a nut for the new shit just cause I prefer the remake)
