RE4 remake on PC is really good. Plays and looks amazing, and don't think it is missing anything. Granted not played the original since I had it on the wii which was really fun as it played like a RE duck hunt :)
It’s on my list, 4 is in my top 5 all time favorite games, I will definitely get to it

As someone who hasn't played RE since 4, is this first person view new to the series? It's so weird seeing a first person RE game. From what I watched on Twitch it does seem to be pretty cool.

First person had been a thing since 7. Village was also 1st person but they patched in the ability to toggle to 3rd post launch iirc.

1st person definitely gives more grounds to be scary, its why leon is 3rd person by default and the chick is first person since he's way more actiony

Right now we have confirmation the environments are first-class photo realistic.

Can't say the same for the animations and models unfortunately. But the game nailed the overall graphics pertaining to environment.

It should be noted the game does not use Unreal 5 and uses it's own proprietary RE Capcom engine.

Maybe this is the way.

The story for this game requires a surprising amount of lore knowledge to make sense, I'm surprised.

If you've not played or at least read about most of the prior games including side games like Revelations, you miss out on a ton of lore reveals and info dumps.

Game has a vibe of Evil Within for the long Grace segment in the medical center with all the creepy freaky mutants and zombies, but the action parts are reminiscent of the recent remakes especially RE4 Remake since it's Leon.

I liked this game's story better than the RE7/RE8 stories about the mold, but they're all pretty high quality games in any case.

It felt like a love letter to the franchise honestly.

So Im enjoying this one. I got it on Switch because my only free time with twins is when I go to take a shit and it runs pretty good all things considered. The game plays super different depending on if you're playing as Leon or Grace. I like how you can somewhat choose how you play via the crafting system.

Bringing back the zombie disposal mechanic from the original re1 remake was a nice touch too. Overall I think they did a great job

Solid 9/10 game imo, if only they had the emily gameplay/orphanage as a cutscene it would be better. That place is just stupid, i dont care that it lasts like 10 mins its just unnecessary lol

still need to beat it on insanity so we'll see how that goes

Yea, it was pretty dumb. Creepy, but would've been better as a cutscene.

Beat it last night, might be one of my favorite RE games. I feel like it tied the originals together nicely, and even with the

redemption arc for Spencer

it was pretty grounded (for an RE game). Took me ~11 hours according to the game to beat it, but with kids not sure how legit that is. I definitely spent a lot of time on stupid deaths. Im going to play it again for the bad ending to see how fast I can go.

There is definitely going to be DLC for it.


The Grace sections are def better in first person if you want more of a horror experience.

I would have bought it at full price had they not ripped out the Alyssa Ashcroft segments (They were tested and complete and part of the released game experience) to pitch back in as Paid DLC - more so for the ethics of that but also because reports were you could tell pacing was hit directly. So now I'll play it when it hits a sale and includes all that. Last time I saw something so blatant was when they did that in Mafia 2 (Which I loved) and they took out Joe's adventures which literally would have made that story complete.

Curious if you noticed some of the transitions were off - because in the intended experience before they ripped that out you were also supposed to play as Alyssa Ashcroft in flashback segments during Grace's sections to fill in the entire backstory of her mom.
