What impresses me about Ashley is not only that she went from being one of the most hated to one of the most loved characters after the Remake, but the fact that she became one of the most beloved girls in RE after only one game and not even being the main character, make you realize what a great work Capcom did with her, I hope they know how to take advantage of this popularity, otherwise it would be like discovering a gold and simply covering it up again.
I highly doubt we'll see Ashley again in RE universe, be it the games or movies. Which is a shame cause I actually liked her character, even when I played the original RE4 decades ago. But Capcom has likely decided that Leon will end up with Ada eventually, even tho it might take 20 more years for them to finally get together, similar to Final Fantasy...
I absolutely LOVE when Leon does his shooting practice, Ashley just roots you on. She's so damn adorable. And that makes you really care and want to protect her throughout the game.
Ashley is also confused for a teenager. Many players believe she's 16 because she looked young in the original game even though the game said she's 20, and is in college.
@@MaxCanonStunner I know. People somehow fail to read the one note that says her age and that she's in college. I think some who believe she's 16 either never played the game or never saw that note.
@@tyrantking9000 yeah. Though I honestly don't blame them for thinking that because she didn't look anywhere near to 20 in the original. Even I used to thought she was like 16-17 until I searched her age on Google few years ago and I was like "Wait, WHAT!?" 😂 I'm so glad they fixed that by actually making her look like her age closely in the remake.
What I like is that you can see in her dialogue how she progresses as a character. At first, she's very hesitant when you order her to hide or climb but as time goes on, she sounds very confident.
I absolutely love Ashley in remake! Her and Leon's interactions are wonderful and give the game a lot of heart. The RE4 team did a great job fleshing out her character and her voice actress nailed it. I really hope we see Ashley return as an agent. 🙏
I do love that when the ballistic line was said, you see in the background that Leon leaves to check the cabin. My head canon is that Leon is like, Nope, not walking into that one.
This may be a singular opinion but I actually liked the first version of Ashley. I never felt she was annoying or hated her the way the fan base does. She was always right behind me, always did exactly what I told her & stayed where I needed her, ducking down so she wasn't in the way, always had hiding spots when I needed to battle. Anytime I lost her or she died was usually due to my own mistakes. Plus she always cheered me on & gave a fist pump whenever I shot off someone's head which was just adorable.
I liked amber eyed Ashley a lot. Knowing that's the rarest eye color in the world makes it all the more intriguing. Her design really made me wanna try RE4 back in the day. Never beat it, but I got to the lab and lost my data. Thanks for doing these neat little trivia videos man. They make my day.
God I love the suplex glitch, my sister got it while panicking (I think she missed the lantern? it's been almost 2 decades) and we both were so confused but too scared to try to recreate it
@@SonicAdventureEnjoyer It has little to do with difficulty. I never once struggled with keeping Ashley alive, but I also never found her particularly likeable either and never once felt any personal incentive to protect her outside of the fact that it was the primary objective of the game. I didn't necessarily hate her either as much as I was just completely ambivalent towards her as a character. It's also odd that she looks and acts so immature that I legitimately thought she was supposed to be a 14 year old for many years, and it blew my mind when I eventually found that she was canonically 20 in RE4. Remake Ashley is simply more likeable and I actually liked having her around even though I actually had a harder time protecting her since I was playing on Hardcore mode.
I always felt like old Ashley had her own charms even though she was often a bit of a nuisance, but that was mostly due to her ai and not her character and often times I found her quite cute, but new Ashley is absolutely lovely and besides Luis a thing they improved the most with the remake.
For sure Capcom nailed the Remake with the graphics, Ashley and gameplay. But I still feel like they didn't surpass the O-RE4 as I did have high expectations especially with Ashley. I was hoping Ashley would be more helpful and more interacted with Leon besides the cutscenes.
@@harryvuemedia I mean she climbs into unknown rooms and opens doors for you, she operates the crane so you can focus on the goons and such. That's plenty helpful in my book + I like how she goes from "I'm supposed to do that? ... O-Okay" to " Let me handle this, I'm pretty good at that" and even though it probably doesn't take much to handle the crank the character development from scared young one to confident young woman is amazing as that's one thing she lacked in the original. Not that it wasn't there at all, it was just a lot better communicated in the remake in my opinion. In the end both games are great in their own way and I also enjoyed the old dialogues over the radio or what Luis said, but in the end I see the remake as more of a different perspective or maybe viewing the same thing through a different lense.
I never had an issue playing the OG on PS2 as a kid. I was surprised to learn later on when the internet became much more prevalent that people hated her. She literally does what you tell her to, she waits when you tell her to wait, she follows when you tell her to follow, and best of all you can shove her in a trash can when you need her out of the way lol I never understood the hate, other than that guttural scream she does when captured, that was annoying
I agree with Ashley, but it also made some characters worse; Salazar in og was an angry funny dwarf but in the remake he is an old lady without trace of humor, Ada Wong is ok but her og model was better and the charm she had was unmatched
I never knew in the original she was voiced by Sandy from Spongebob, as someone who recently got into the series because of Village that is really cool.
@Muhammad Adil The 2 basic type of pistols are semiautomatic and revolvers. In that particular scene when Leon drops his gun and Ashley picks it up, they are using a semiautomatic. When the shooter squeezes the trigger It will cause a pin to drop on the primer of the bullet casing causing the gun powder inside to explode. That explosion is what propels the bullet out of the barrel at supersonic speeds. With the same explosion the slide, which is the top piece of the gun that slides back-and-forth, will force backwards thus ejecting the now empty casing. A spring in the slide will force the slide to the forward position also grabbing a new round of ammunition along the way. However in order for the slide and the spring to perform normally the gun will have to have somebody holding it somewhat tightly. Without a good drip on it, it'll cause the spring to move too quickly not allowing enough time for the used casing to eject causing it to catch half way through. That type of jam is called a Stove Pipe jam. A weak grip is called Limp Wristing.
Ashley Graham is easily the best example of an improved character in a video game remake. She went from a useless cartoonish plot device to the most loveable human being that I wanted to protect with my whole life. She quickly became one of my favorite supporting characters in the RE franchise. The dynamic between her and Leon in the remake is just breathtaking and now I wish she would have her own solo RE title in which she is an agent like Leon. Hell, it wouldn't hurt to see her partner with Sherry in biohazard mission. I can understand some preferences in the original versions of classic games but this one, I will never understand. Is there an actual valid reason why you prefer a soulless character (OG) over the one that acts like a human being? I don't care if she was portrayed that way to represent a child of a president. Not all children of presidents have the same personality and attitude as her. Some things intentionally made don't always mean good results. Ashley in the original ran away from Leon who just asked if she was ok FOR NO REASON!!! She can't even climb down ladders and small heights for s**t. I could care less if Ashley was easier to escort in the original. In fact, both versions aren't even bad as escort characters. I am more talking about the character, not the way they were programmed during the gameplay. Dead Rising 1 is the only game that pissed me off with the NPC AI, even though I love that game.
Tho there are still ppl who find her annoying even in remake, that's a bit of cringe imo (But she is much much more likable and everyone seems to love her in Remake so who cares)
@@DarkAttackYT yeah i like tho Krauser in remake wow they made him so great his moments with Leon that's all is just great, so fitting, and there is alot of subtle things about him and Leon, unlike og when he was just actually caricature villain. And yet there are ppl who thinks that this change is bad and Og is better, LIKE HOW THE HELL? NOSTALGIA HITTING HARD? it is the same like you would say aaa the graphics in og were better then in remake, this is stupid. Ok maybe you prefer old one tho ( i cant understand how) but they saying it like this is a straight fact where it is not
@@FIREDAN075 Krauser's main problem was that he was very self-contained in the remake as he basically only interacts with Leon. Don't get me wrong, him being Leon's mentor was a much needed improvement but now him being a dog of the cult takes away from both his Charecter and the Dominant strain of Las Plagas. OG Krauser had the Dominant strain yet he had no loyalty to Saddler kind of made him unique. Final Nail in the coffin was that he never interacts with Ada. In SW, when you chase Krauser after Luis's death, you'd expect to have at least some kind of dialogue exchange if not a full blown conversation. But he just runs away. It was one of the most disappointing thing about the Remake's story.
the run away from Leon part is very well explain that seh was afriad that she will hurt leon when she turns. However, that was portrayed badly, I'm glad that the replacement of Saddler influence cause that fear has totally portray that fear more clearly.
Huh I learned new things about Ashley in this video. I always did enjoy her character and with the Remake it made me love and appreciate her even more than before :)
I actually liked the original Ashley and didn't find her annoying as many try to say, never got me in trouble with her escort as she had a pretty good state of the art AI at the time in 2005 where she will avoid trouble.
100% Morons would always blame her having bad AI when running into the ganados and using a bolt action sniper or pistol over shotgun lmao, she actually stayed behind you and if she died it was mostly your fault from bad positioning on you and ashley together, her not having a health bar ruins the survival horror aspect for me but its also ruined by her AI being a bigger idiot in remake. at least from my experience TLDR: OG > Remake of the Ashleys
@@SonicAdventureEnjoyer exactly. If you play carefully like "bottle neck" killing the enemy one by one like the game try to teach you whole time. Ashley wouldn't be captured so easily
one other fact I would like to add is that when RE4R was announced IMDB thought that Nicole Tompkins was voicing Ashley but it was actually Genevieve Buechner. this has been corrected.
I imagine that those reviewers who complained about Ashley were the same ones who gave low scores to the 2D games that came out around that time and from the PS1 generation.
Maybe the devs planned for Ashley to be in the boat with you way earlier in the game when you had to fight that lake parasite monster but was scrapped and only left her boat animation untouched and forgot to iron it out in the final version of the game 4:04
New Ashley is distractingly beautiful, and I mean that in a good way. She's a real character in the remake, too, though they still should've allowed there to be some more back and forth with Luis. A bit more humor would not have been a bad thing to ease tensions, which would be in character for Luis.
i like both Ashley´s in their own rights. But even Ashley in the OG was actually good, compared to other escort characters at this time. You could hide her in places, she was useful for some puzzels and she opened some doors. Unlike Emma Emmerich and Eva in MGS, who couldn´t get over some bugs or needed food every 5 minutes.
Honestly, I never understood why people hated Ashley. She was literary the easiest AI to handle in the OG. In the remake, she's a bit more annoying in terms of gameplay (specifically that incapacitated status).
Literally. If you mess up, most of the time it’s on you. She follows really close behind you in the og, so treating her like a delayed hit box is usually the best way to go about it. I don’t think I’ve ever used a healing item on her more than once since 2017.
@5:55 she didn’t hold it incorrectly per say, rather she “limp wristed” it by fighting to hold it tight, causing the ejection of the spent round to fumble and be caught by the slide
I've been playing RE4 since release and devoured the entire series since the late 90s, but in all that time I've never seen this Ashley mouse thing. Which obscure forum was that on?!
Hold on, have you made a facts video about haunting ground? If not please do so if you had the time. Anything at all about haunting ground! One of the best survival horrors out there
Aww man, I was hoping you would go into just how Ashley knows how to drive a Bulldozer Operate a wrecking ball machine? Like where did she ever have time to learn that? Was she ever involved in construction project prior to her dad becoming president??
Eu também me pergunto sobre isso , no Remeke o Leon se pergunta sobre isso e ela apenas fala "já ouviu falar sobre autoescola?" mas para você aprender a dirigir bolas de demolição e escavadeiras precisa de aulas especificas e especializadas que não são dadas numa simples autoescola. Então como ela sabe sobre isso ainda é um mistério.
I think while she's improved as a fleshed out character in the remake, the hate that Ashley got in the first game seemed a little extreme I mean can you blame her for being that scared and "useless" And she's in like less than half of the game
i think they made her a bit too likeable. Not a complaint, great character. But i like that Leon doesn't seem to be in love or anything like that with Ada anymore. Ashley would be a better fit. Though i might be getting ahead of myself. Lets see what Claire will be like in Code Veronica Remake.
I don’t know why Ashley’s eye color wasn’t changed it it’s actually color. I think Jill and her new face model have different colored eyes, so Ashley’s model could have been edited if Jill’s was. I’m also sad you didn’t point out she and Heather Mason look almost alike, from clothing to hair to even eye color. I think Ashley’s obnoxious persona in original 4 was a parody of Heather, since her character acts weak and defenseless, since SH characters aren’t badasses like RE characters, since would make sense, because Heather is a teen with no fighting experience.
Not gonna lie. Every time I see Ashley, espcially in her original model, I cannot help but see Heather Mason from Silent Hill 3. Mostly because they both wear orange and have blonde hair. (Even though Heather's was a dye job.)
Leon suplexes a ganado but if Ashley's right behind, she will still call him a pervert if positioned right. BTW, will Ashley still call Leon a pervert if Chainsaw enemies decapitate him and his head rolls under Ashley?
Personally I loved Ashley from the beginning. I love the remake version but the original is still my favorite. Yes she was annoying here and there but I still loved her
She's limp wristing it, her hold is not firm and her wrist is not straight because she's fighting off the control, so after two shots the gun malfunctioned, the slide of the gun got thrown back too fast for the empty cartridge to eject correctly and caused the jam
What impresses me about Ashley is not only that she went from being one of the most hated to one of the most loved characters after the Remake, but the fact that she became one of the most beloved girls in RE after only one game and not even being the main character, make you realize what a great work Capcom did with her, I hope they know how to take advantage of this popularity, otherwise it would be like discovering a gold and simply covering it up again.
i still prefer ada

But Capcom has likely decided that Leon will end up with Ada eventually, even tho it might take 20 more years for them to finally get together, similar to Final Fantasy...
We can add her to the list of beloved characters, who'll never return like Sheva, Carlos and Billy 😞
Ouch, damn you Capcom!
If there's a Resident Evil 5, which will probably happen, Sheva will return then ;)
Don't forget Ark Thompson and Bruce McGivern!

The 2 basic type of pistols are semiautomatic and revolvers.

That Japanese translation caught me off guard. 😂😂😂
I've been playing RE4 since release and devoured the entire series since the late 90s, but in all that time I've never seen this Ashley mouse thing. Which obscure forum was that on?!
Some artist drew her like that, then a lot of furry artists jumped on the trend after.
@@EggmanlandResident oh right. I'm surprised I've never come across it before.
6:20 i thought they removed this detail?! Wow...be right back
Holy shid, how did I not realize Ashley and Sandy had the same voice?
Ashley the fourth wall looking at us was a bit creepy
until i watch this video, i never know she could break the 4th wall
I feel like the popstar outfit in the OG is a nod to Britney Spears, as she was at her prime at the time of release.
Leon: * busy freeing himself from bear trap*
Ashley: "You pervert."
Man RE4 2005 predicted the situation nowadays
New Ashley is 100% improved, I hope she comes back as the Main in RE9
why would she
But why and for what purpose?
Now I want to hear Tom Kenny voicing some of Leon’s lines.
Ashley pisses me off because she just sits on the floor and won’t get up until Leon gives her his hand. She’s such a weakling
Hold on, have you made a facts video about haunting ground? If not please do so if you had the time. Anything at all about haunting ground! One of the best survival horrors out there
Aww man, I was hoping you would go into just how Ashley knows how to drive a Bulldozer Operate a wrecking ball machine? Like where did she ever have time to learn that? Was she ever involved in construction project prior to her dad becoming president??
Eu também me pergunto sobre isso , no Remeke o Leon se pergunta sobre isso e ela apenas fala "já ouviu falar sobre autoescola?" mas para você aprender a dirigir bolas de demolição e escavadeiras precisa de aulas especificas e especializadas que não são dadas numa simples autoescola. Então como ela sabe sobre isso ainda é um mistério.
@ink ribbon I watched this while giving my dog head scratches, that sign off was creepy and hilarious!
I think while she's improved as a fleshed out character in the remake, the hate that Ashley got in the first game seemed a little extreme
I mean can you blame her for being that scared and "useless"
And she's in like less than half of the game
1:42 spoge Bob is everyone's favorite
i love original Ashley over remake one
That SpongeBob clip got rolling😂🤣🤣🤣
Ashley went from absolutely annoying too being one of my favourite characters in resident evil.
My favorite character Ashley ❤❤❤❤❤
Capcom should make ashley dlc. how she got capture by this cult group and brought her to in a remote village
Ashley: you pervert!
Leon: I got my foot caught on another fucking bear trap, what do you want from me? 😭😭😭
"Ey, I finished RE4, why not watch this?"
1. The POTUS changes into a zombie in RE6
Hopefully, in future RE games, Ashley would return, maybe as a badass character
i think they made her a bit too likeable. Not a complaint, great character.
But i like that Leon doesn't seem to be in love or anything like that with Ada anymore.
Ashley would be a better fit.
Though i might be getting ahead of myself. Lets see what Claire will be like in Code Veronica Remake.
I want Mega Man X9 not Code Veronica remake.
4:53 I don't get fandom or japanese humor, sometimes. But it did make me smile a bit, so it's okay
Its not even a Japanese humour lol
I don’t know why Ashley’s eye color wasn’t changed it it’s actually color. I think Jill and her new face model have different colored eyes, so Ashley’s model could have been edited if Jill’s was.
I’m also sad you didn’t point out she and Heather Mason look almost alike, from clothing to hair to even eye color. I think Ashley’s obnoxious persona in original 4 was a parody of Heather, since her character acts weak and defenseless, since SH characters aren’t badasses like RE characters, since would make sense, because Heather is a teen with no fighting experience.
Remake Ashley Graham is my one true love and the love of my love...
Carry me around like a suitcase Kai
😂
I feel that Shinji Mikami really said, yeah let's give the NPC you have to escort the whole game the most annoying voice ever.
Proceeds to get stuck in a bear trap tries to release himself from it
Ashlie. You pervert 😂😂😂😂
Not gonna lie. Every time I see Ashley, espcially in her original model, I cannot help but see Heather Mason from Silent Hill 3. Mostly because they both wear orange and have blonde hair. (Even though Heather's was a dye job.)
I agree, their outfits are very similar too, with the orange tank top, green skirt and knee high brown boots.
It’s amazing that they made Moushly a thing on the internet. I just love memes, and video game memes too.
Ashley is definitely the type of girl who doesn't respond to her Instagram DMs :)
This was a great video, really enjoyed it.
I love Ashley in the remake she’s also prettier in the remake as well
And less annoying
The president gave his daughter military training 💀
LEON HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dude that quote gave me ptsd
She is so very beautiful.
Poor ole boy gets his leg stuck in a bear trap and she still calls him a pervert....and by the end of the game she was ready to hike it.
Leon suplexes a ganado but if Ashley's right behind, she will still call him a pervert if positioned right.
BTW, will Ashley still call Leon a pervert if Chainsaw enemies decapitate him and his head rolls under Ashley?
I never understood the the hate for og Ashley
People sucked at the game and blamed it on her ai
I believe Michael from rooster teeth is the true reason for the love Ashley receives. That rant he went on was pure gold.
Great job! Will you do a video about Regina from Dino Crisis?
And thank you so much for the shout out 😊
Personally I loved Ashley from the beginning. I love the remake version but the original is still my favorite. Yes she was annoying here and there but I still loved her
While you can’t touch ashley in VR, it’s great that you can share a moment with the merchant and hold his hand
How many times do they gotta reference the “master of unlocking” throughout the series
Another outstanding video many thanks
How is Ashley holding the gun wrong to cause it to jam? 5:46
She's limp wristing it, her hold is not firm and her wrist is not straight because she's fighting off the control, so after two shots the gun malfunctioned, the slide of the gun got thrown back too fast for the empty cartridge to eject correctly and caused the jam
Can't wait for the facts about Jack Krauser video
Well done
WHAT IS THE ACCESSORY FOR LEON AT 5:50 BTWWWW (THE EYEWEAR)
