I still remember how you compliment stefano character in the evil within 2 and the boss fight itself, it's really good that shotgun with no upgrade can still flinch him, the ammo spawn itself, yeah.. that boss alone is much better than the entire resident evil 4 remilk itself lol..
What was the point in changing the scenario from Saddler injecting Leon with plaga (coupled with badass dialogue) to instead have Mendes inject him and get this stupid conflicting scenario where Mendes STILL tries to chock out Leon but for no reason, since he's the one who injected him? New Capcom changing established timelines and scenarios JUST for the sake of changing them - it literally serves to reason or logic. As clueless as ever.
They changed the line to make sense for the change of scenario: "you carry the same blood, it seems" is because he's surprised that Leon has the plaga and he was going to kill him. "Your blood has accepted the gift" is him making sure the plaga injection is indeed working as expected, because Leon doesn't quite seem to be affected by the plaga. He wasn't choking to kill Leon but to get a good look at his eyes - the major symptom of the plaga. "Accept the gift" is a terminology used in RE7 too. I reckon they changed who infects Leon because they wanted Saddler to be shown mostly in the island and make the other characters more prominent in their areas while only teasing Saddler indirectly from either the hive mind or through Ashley. His appareances in the church and the castle are pretty random in the og. He has an army at his disposal, why would he need to do these basic tasks himself when he could send anyone or even Krauser to do it? The village and the castle are pretty far from the island. They designed the island to be Saddler's personal area with the history of his family and everything. In the og, Saddler was conveniently in the same areas you were for no reason. He could have sent someone to infect Leon, take the plaga sample/amber, which is exactly what he does in the remake.
@Aether2125 Way to overthink a videogame's plot. He appeared in OG because he was a badass main bad guy and his scenes with Leon were entertaining - something that should be a priority in a videogame. Instead, they neutered and reduced the main villain of the game so much you barely feel his presence. Now, Saddler appearing in other areas of the game is not even strange - the whole area is his base of operations, AND he's overseeing the completion of his orders which is logical.
@@cuttrogue RE4 doesn’t have just one villain. It’s not a crime to add logic to videogames. They made each of the villains have their own identities and not be just a “badass” monster on the way. Part of that required for each of their areas to be more focused. The island is now much more Saddler focused as well. The mistake was not giving Saddler and Salazar direct memorable interactions but if you read all files and put two and two together, you can tell they added a lot of depth to the lore. Saddler and Krauser got the biggest changes of themes as villains. While I think the changes with Krauser worked out well in practically making him the major direct antagonist to Leon in the game, I think the ones for Saddler made him much less impactful.
@Aether2125 Scattered optional lore can't replace actual interactions between characters. You calling Salazar and Saddler, one of the most memorable villains in RE franchise "some monsters" is hilariously of touch and clueless. They had huge identities already in the OG, the problem is the absolutely lack of identity, personality and charisma in the new one. Each area in OG was still themed around its villain, but Saddler is the main villain of the game and have him have 2 minutes of the entire screen time is laughable, especially when he's so uncharismatic.
@@cuttrogue I didn’t say they were just some monsters, I criticized your take of him being “badass villain” from a videogame (precisely when you mentioned I was overthinking the lore and Saddler was just a badass main villain with some entertaining interactions with Leon). Mendez in the og didn’t have much background. In the remake he is an actual character but you have to be invested to notice - it’s not exactly scattered optional lore. This intro cutscene tells nothing about his backstory or his character. All the details of Luis and Mendez require you to not only read the files but also pay attention to the environment and the village - that’s good storytelling. Connecting the points pays off and makes these characters much more meaningful in the story. They even tied Mendez to the iconic credits theme where you’re supposed to feel for the villagers and their tragic demise.
You immediately notice something very wrong and uncanny the very first time you play remake. Why is he shooting only 3 bullets then stops suddenly? It's so wack. Remake cultists will excuse it with "rEaLiSm"
Yeah. By that point, Leon should've figured out from gameplay that you ought to shoot them in the head, especially if playing on Hardcore mode. @@idi-jq6cj
It's strange that the original cutscene's actual fit better in the remake than it's own scene's. Like how mendez jumps out the window to get Ada set up the chase with him in the remake or let's say krauser's qte fight where he jumps down to kill leon, but only scratches his cheek. But how about we have luis saving Leon by pushing him out of the way of Krauser's attack, but ends up with krauser slamming down on luis with his knife and the scene plays out the same as the original, but have krauser slowly pull his knife out of luis back.

“Why is he not going for the head” is what I would think of.
