Thread 712723472

Did the experiment myself. Took a screenshot of the exact same spot in RE4 remake and original. Looks like you were right - original has more soul and detail. I thought it was just your blind nostalgia and schizophrenia.

Yes, it has, but it's also too fucking dark. The horror vibe was tuned up too much.

Now post the starting line up of the water room after dying once on normal and using a “continue”
Adaptive difficulty should be a fucking sin

>>712723952
Basically the case for every REmake game.

I enjoyed my first playthrough of the remake but haven't felt tempted to replay it at all since then, I always end up going back to the og.
The other day I had genuinely forgot the remake came out. I saw the cover art on someone's tier list and was shocked the game existed for a second.

>>712724115
Unfortunately. Can't wait to see how they will make that work on RE5

Why does it have so much chromatic abortion and blur? My god, look how Ashley looks in this picture.

>>712723472 (OP)
Ankle fog makes it "spooky" and shows off technical ability, because "LOOK! Aren't we so good at our job!"
The industry at large is a fucking joke now.

Why does it have so much chromatic abortion and blur? Just look at how Ashley looks in this screenshot.

It's literally just brighter and has a different tile pattern, you schizo.

>it's inside a castle
>everything looks foggy and blurry
Why are designers like this? Why do they think the best way to show things is to make them look wrong or not visible?

>>712724209
I'm actually kind of interested to see what they do once they get to the point of remaking the more controversial games like 5 and 6. Like how do you make the 6 campaign into something good?

>>712724509
You're retarded lol. What a hand wave.

>>712724509

Bottom looks like an actual castle that's still in use

It's the small things.

>>712724652
You can't. 6 is fundamentally broken at its core design. You'd have to basically make it a new game at that point. I think this is why they've gone the RE9 route rather than tackling CV, 5 and 6 remakes.

Of all the unrealistic shit you could point out about the top image why is no one mentioning the fuckhuge amount of candles? Who the HELL is lighting and changing that many candles? That's just ONE room in this gigantic castle as well. Seems like law enforcement could have easily found the place by looking at whatever supposedly abandoned Spanish castle was ordering 50,000 candles every month. No to mention that they are so tightly clustered they would all just melt anyway... It's preposterous really.

>>712723472 (OP)
The original was made by a skilled team of veteran Japanese developers who meticulously created a masterpiece.

The Numake is made by zoomer devs and their army of Pajeet stock asset makers.

>>712723472 (OP)
Why is there so much fog inside a castle, where they having an orgy or what?

>>712724652
We're not getting CV are we? It's the only one I would be interested in seeing a remake of because that game is a mess at times and could really benefit from someone taking another shot at it

>>712724975
>Who the HELL is lighting and changing that many candles
Lmaoo, its anti-soul magic bro

>>712724652
Assuming you don't touch the plot I don't think it would be too hard to improve the campaigns, just have less insta kills and trim the hell out of that ruin level in Leon's campaign.

Real castles always fail to meet expectations. Growing up with all sorts of big sized structures in videogames and movies completely warped my expectations when I watched the real thing on documentaries. They are really tiny in comparison.

Soul
Soulless

I know it is a meme by now but this picture proves it.

Why does their hair look much more natural in the original, both in terms of sheen and how it falls on their head? In the remake it looks like they are wearing wigs covered in light reflecting oil.

Why does Ashley look like a sleep deprived meth addict now?

Why is the UI awful?

Why is it so fucking dark despite having even MORE light sources?

Why is the ground covered in fog?

Why does Leon's straps and gear stand out against his outfit so much more in the original?

Why is the texture work on absolutely everything in the environment so much better in the original? Look at the mosaic patterns on the floor, columns and light fixtures. In the remake it's just plain stone with a trillion cracks in it for some reason.

You faggots keep using simplistic terms like soul and nostalgia when there are a million obvious specific complaints you could make about it.

>>712724652

You are a drooling underage moron, the SH2 remake is abysmal dogshit compared to the original. If you weren't at least in your 20's when the original came out, shut your fucking mouth and go back to whatever social media shithole you came from.

are there any other games like it? doesn't necessarily have to be a TPS

It would make sense if Krauser kidnapped her either at school or immediately following it. That's about the only way I can explain it. There's no way a 20 year old is wearing a formal jacket casually, especially in the 2000s.

>>712727589
>In the remake it looks like they are wearing wigs
I call this RE engine wig syndrome and all their games have this, except maybe DD2 which in a lot of ways doesn't look like a RE Engine game (water not being black fucking sludge for example). I guess that's what you get when you put soul into a game.

>>712723472 (OP)
>Tries the make the game more scary
>Failed miserably
The original was great at subtlety introducing the scarier enemies
The first time you see the Regenerator in OG RE4, it sneaks up on you after try to leave a room
In the remake, you walk through a dark corridor and see the regenerator run away from you like a shitty movie monster before eventually showing back up. The remake is obsessed with setting monsters up instead of just letting them loose on the player

jeet vs jeetless

>>712729186
The remake regenerator section with the turned out lights was far scarier than the original and played with your expectations. Knowing the regenerator was coming made that section unbearable for me.

That said, they ruined the Village at Night section which went from the spookiest part of RE4 to being too loud.

>>712729186
why the fuck would the regenerator run away from you? I need to find that, sounds too retarded to be true but I know it isn't

>>712729057
There's plenty of retards trying to make the tiny little thing a big issue, so I wouldn't trust those comparisons.

>>712723472 (OP)
There is so much copypasta object's in remake

>>712729057
No there is a basement later where the knights are posed like they were in the original.
Most of the castle isn't 1:1 and just has nods to the original design.

>>712723472 (OP)
>upper screenshot
I didn't know you could rescue her mom too

>>712729398
They made it lame by showing the regenerator in the first place. Anyone who played the original knew it was coming, so they could have at least made it an even bigger surprise like having to fight it early into the island. They did the same thing with the Armor. The first time you see them, it's during the Ashley segment and they don't even become alive until the end of the segment When you're leaving. Then in the next chapter, you properly fight them as Leon. The remake reversed this, so now you fight the armors as Leon before going through the Ashely segment with them ruining the surprise.

>You'd have to basically make it a new game at that point
That's what a remake should be. Take the same idea and make a brand new game. Not close to 1:1 but worse with wobbly ass RE Engine controls and inconsistent hit reaction.

>>712725330
Honestly I'm more baffled why they keep the retarded chapter nonsense in the remake to begin with. It's one of the few minor annoyances I have with RE4 and they decided to just keep that while changing aspects that were already near perfect.

>>712725415
I was surprised they made her crush on Leon. They made Ada into such a bitch I was half-expecting her to spend the entire game just talking down on him.

>>712731881
>>712731715
the only real similarities those games have is game length and the fact they're TPS
I'd say a game like DeS or a good Metroid game are closer in spirit

>>712730636
I like when horror games do chapters, feels like a more appropriate chunk of content for how rarely you die.

>>712727431
This. I loved them both.

The real fucking tragedy here is Resident Evil 9 being more 7/8 bullshit instead of building off RE4R which proved they can at least come close to what the original legendary game pulled off.
Imagine you prove to everyone you can still make games on par with one of the most legendary games of all time only to immediately revert to pushing out first-person boring shit.

>>712733202
evil within really leans into the horror setpiece aspect of re4, if you're a big fan of stuff like the verdugo encounter it's going to be a great game for you.

So I did an experiment and played both games and realized that the remake is better because because it has better pacing, side content, gameplay, difficulty and bosses.

>>712723472 (OP)

>>712736787
my men, the original is about positioning while the remake is about being on constant movement, what the fuck are you talking about?

>>712737034
>Poor
RE4 runs fine on 10 year old PCs lmao

>>712736787
Also the reason why the original is incredibly easy: OG Leon can run marathons around the slower enemies, effectively making it less scarier.

>look at the interior of a real castle in Spain (or some approximate castle in a nearby country)
>make your own slightly ominous and hostile looking version based on the reality you studied

>>712737087
>"Because of the reaction to the Resident Evil remake, I decided to work more action into Resident Evil 4," he told IGN. "Resident Evil 4 would have been a more scary, horror-focused game if the remake had sold well.”
RE4 OG was never a horror game, it was an action game.

>>712736902
>constant movement
>stand in one place and parry everything

>>712737226
It can be both things and it were both things. Action-horror is how it's called. And I say this because I was already around at the time and I played the game while reading half the fanbase saying "it's good, but not RE" and "It's a masterpiece" at the same time in comment sections and forums.

>>712737150
Lmao the original is RE at its most Scooby-Doo. They even have a giant robot and ships in lava.

>>712737519
yet that still looks more realistic than running through skyscraper sized ramparts in a cavernous section of mystery land that makes no sense

>>712737226
Kamiya also says when making games RE2 he designed it to be like an action movie. Action has always been a huge part of the RE games, its just that people got made when the action became good.

If you look at Leon's legs, they move accordingly. It's just his upper body who is a bit stiff.

>>712723472 (OP)
Nasty OG slop on the bottom. Yuck. Glad the New game has made it irrelevant.

>>712723472 (OP)
The original is better design wise because minus the huge fucking candle sticks, it's a gaudy mansion some 17th-18th century home foyer that a person could live in and enjoy.

The top has a more cinematic presentation like an action film. A remake is not always going to be 1:1 on level design looks, but the layout will resemble close enough.

>>712738462
you'd be very surprised by how low IQ the average gamer is
they tend to think that the game design is on a linear trajectory of improvement, so that whatever is made today is better by default since over the years we've only ever tossed away the bad ideas and improved upon them
when they hear the 'for a modern audience' or 'modern game design sensibilities' they fall for it hook line and sinker
they're too stupid to realize that limitations ARE game design and that developers back in the day made deliberate decisions. there was nothing stopping them from allowing Leon to move and shoot at the same time; they considered it and rejected it for good reason

Why do millenials keep posting here as if this isn't a site intended for 18-26 year olds? You realize nobody respects you, cares about your ancient trash or wants to hear your stupid opinions, right? Go back.

>>712723472 (OP)
Because an original has an artistic vision and a remake is bringing in zoomers to create a vision with their own stupid taste

Do people who make these threads realize that they're making themselves look bad and the villains here? If your game was objectively superior and the remake was shit, you wouldn't be having to make these threads. It would just be common knowledge. But the fact you have to continuously make these threads shows insecurity and some weird lack of validation that you don't have in your life.

>>712740826
budgetary limitations are more likely to lead to content cuts, not cuts to the core game mechanics themselves
in the Mega Man games you can control your jump in mid-air but in Ghosts n Goblins and Castlevania games you can't, even though those games were developed alongside each other, therefore it points to those games being designed deliberately rather than the lack of a mid-air jump being a limitation of any kind
those kinds of limitations are what gives the games their challenge and identity, they're designed entirely around what the player can and can't do
again, limitations are the core of game design. to get back to the point: Leon not being able to aim and move at the same time is a deliberate decision for the original game that bolsters tension and forces you to take positioning into account
if you read old interviews about the game they even say that a core staple of RE4's combat is the fear of crowds and being swarmed

>>712740861
literally all you said was 'lol old bad' whereas I actually substantiated my arguments

>>712724806
I thought the remakes were all part of the "nu canon" as in RE7, 8 and 9 but then they brought back the chick from Outbreak

So which is it, are the new games canon to the original era of RE games or what?

>>712741541
>if you read old interviews about the game they even say that a core staple of RE4's combat is the fear of crowds and being swarmed
Then they fucked that up because of how easy it is to keep the enemies at bay with headshot-melee. The remake did a better job of making swarms dangerous.

>>712740826
>Limitations are usually lack of budget.
Retard.

>>712741661
the chick from outbreak was referenced in like the second document you find in REmake 2
REmake 1 was an actual remake, slavishly remaking everything from the original, fixing some inconsistencies in the lore between the differences in RE1 ports, as well as some created by the sequels
and it also added new things
The New REmakes play fast and loose with the canon, regardless of how much sense it makes, and their biggest crime is cutting enemies and locations from the original versions

remake of literally anything is just a retard money grab, but the cattle that is not pirating in first place deserves it

>>712740535

You get to shoot South Africans, what more can you ask for? Since I'm racist against Black people, maybe Capcom will replace all the Black South Africans with White Africans descended from British and German settlers.

Yeah, keep bitching.

>remaking 6
nobody remakes bad games (or even games that were bad but had potential), ie the games that actually deserve remakes. they just remake good games that they already know have sold for easy guaranteed money at little cost

>>712724652
They'll ruin what RE6 actually did right, the core controls.

"though I did play it and am better at the game than you could ever be
it still sucks though"

Now play RE4 Remake without aim assist.

>>712743451
I did.
I also played it, and every other one of these zoomer games on hardcore mode because Resident Evil with autosave isn't Resident Evil.
Anything else you want to talk about, sport?

>>712743948

Bullshit, nobody on console plays shooters without aim assist. Only gamers who play without aim assist are mobile and Switch gamers.

I’m a gameplaychad, and the remake wins there. Sorry OP.

>>712744521
You're retarded if you believe that, or if you believe aim assist is even necessary for a mindless stop-n-pop shooters with abusable melee finishers.
This is like when you have to tell some eurocuck that a joke they saw on the simpsons isn't actual real life and most Americans haven't ever been to a monster truck rally.

>>712723472 (OP)
top looks better. Way better.

>>712744797

Shut up, thumb twiddler. You never played a console shooter without aim assist just like all the other console players who have only ever used aim assist. At least I am not accusing you of using that Cronus Zen thing that other console players have used.

Maybe the huge group of cultists could squeeze in some time to light them at the start of the day before they carry on with the regular slaughter duties.

Crowbcat won.

>you haven't tasted shit, how can you say it's actually bad?

>>712728876
To be fair, this comparison is not very fair because higher fidelity games don't look good when minimized or compressed, everything seems too monotonous and dark and lacking substance. However they often look much better on a big screen in motion like they're supposed to. Still it's obvious that the original had much more going for it in the looks (and soul) department.
I'm not a big fan of RE4 because of it's linearity and lack of good puzzles and survival elements compared to previous REs. Still can't deny that it's still a damn good game, just different.
>>712724509
There's more detail that matters, like in the columns and tiles. Modern understanding of "detail" usually equals to having rugged surfaces like cracks in the walls or rugged terrain. No artistry is involved here.

can anybody please post the tom and jerry forest background image comparison? it basically resume my pointview with modern artists.

>>712725589
how can you miss the china dress in a chinese character so bad?

>>712730636
What's the issue? It's good way to keep track of your performance and recall specific moments in the game more easily.

Those candles would probably burn a few hours at best thanks to all the heat coming off the other candles nearby

>>712724806
I fucking hate face scans and attempts at hyper-realism. It doesn't matter if they hire a 10/10 model, the character always looks sickly with yellow mushy skin and a weird bite.
And that's when they don't hire an actor who's objectively ugly as fuck even in real life, on purpose, just to piss you off.

>>712728464
There's literally no angle you can possibly get where Leon from the remake looks better than the Leon from the original.
It doesn't matter the actor is a 10/10 male model.
His skin is yellowish, his lips are black, he looks like he's going through liver failure. His hair is literally a wig they placed it on top of his face scan.

>>712747889
RE2make Leon was perfect. Not sure how they fucked up RE4make Leon so badly.

>>712728464
Here's another shot where he's supposed to look good. Just like the Devil May Cry face scans, these characters went from male sex symbol status to generic face scan video game character.

>>712723472 (OP)
as someone who never played re4 I like the top image better. Gives more horror vibes, below looks a little bit like a generic castle. Could be from a jrpg or dmc

>>712728764
I am convinced that Mikami was heavily influenced by Sommers.

>remote european village and spooky castle (van helsing)

>>712748462
Why is there fog in the castle?

20 years ago game development was about making the most attractive characters possible, having to circumvent a massive limitation in the number of polygons that could be shown on screen.

Today this limitation has been completely surpassed, and characters are uglier than they ever were before. All because of face scanning and other lazy systems of character creation that try to automate art.

>>712748567
Isn't the castle on an island? And if it was raining outside it can make sense? Also gives a cool stylistic vibe to it.

>>712724184
The remake has too much going on. It's visually messy. It overwhelms my aged brain.

>>712723472 (OP)
>original has more soul

Stopped reading here. You're blinded by nostalgia.

>>712748962
You forget people can play the original for the first time and prefer it in 2025. Fag. Why do you assume its nostalgia every time? And it does have more soul because it's the original. It was THE intended experience. A remake cannot be.

this isn't a fucking Ueda game, it's a camp action-adventure game with Spanish zombies and giant killer statues

>>712740861
kek he thinks he made an argument hahahah literal retard

Castle in remake is a fucking tragedy, in the original its beautiful and ornate like a proper castle for a noble. Remake makes it some fucking haunted house shit where its dark and spooky everywhere and it just looks like shit.

This is why the majority of /v/ users should be ignored and their opinions are worthless. You don't actually play video games.
