@sadiq2008 Actually the exact opposite. Capcom changed the formula because even they were getting bored of it. Res 6 was the one that tarnished the franchise. but clearly they have made the bounce back.

Resident Evil 4 still has amongst the best pacing, encounter design, level design, gameplay loop, and overall game structure with incredibly satisfying mechanics today compared to everything that has come since. It's one of the most brilliantly cohesive and focused game visions ever executed. It is absolutely committed to a singular vision and evolving that vision throughout the experience, never once dwelling on one particular encounter or puzzle type, each lasting just long enough to engage and excite and then quickly abandoned in favor of something new. There's a convincing sense of progression and journey as you move between locations, an absurd number of unique and memorable locations that feel believably interconnected but absolutely unique by their own rights. And the core game systems of simply shooting and besting your opponents are refined to an absurd degree, immediately accessible and simple in their base functions yet surprisingly deep enough to raise the skill ceiling that growing and bettering yourself as a player is instantly reflected in moment-to-moment performance. The art direction and audio design is on point and focused at conveying particular moods and tones, all of which equally evolve and adapt to emerging encounter types and locational changes. Tension is matched with excitement, as the game toes the line between legitimate stalking horror and an overwhelming rush of adrenaline, all the while backed by an absurd doesn't-take-itself-too-seriously narrative that brilliantly sets up each location, encounter, and set piece. It's a remarkable accomplishment of video game design, and should remain an absolute template of how to get literally everything right in a game design direction and production.
Well said. I remember first getting this game when I was 12. Literally the perfect game at that time. I would sprint off the bus in order to hurry and play it.
Could not agree more on the pacing. The way the game builds up to the stronger enemy encounters and boss fights is unparalleled even in modern games. Its so cool how each level give you a different challenge or enemy to overcome, its a hallmark of thoughtful game design.
Because it's funny.. would have been better if it's type of phantom or some weird creature like those in silent hill. But a villager no i would laugh 😂
This game still get a millions of views till this day when ever someone post something related to RE4 on youtube... *Capcom employees looking at theirs hands in fear* :what have we done!!!
NOX exactly! I have never seen a game still have influence on so many fans tune into any RE4 content. No other games have that today or any old game that had a impact like RE4 did! If it does get a remaster then this game would be the only game to ever get released on all platforms including the new Xbox series and ps5.. no other game has done that yet
RE4 was a masterpiece, it totally revolutionized third person shooters with it's "over the shoulder" aiming system. Almost every third person shooter that has come out since has used the aiming system that RE4 invented. Gears of War, Uncharted, Red Dead Redemption, Horizon Zero Dawn, etc all owe a great debt to Resident Evil 4
Resident Evil 4 was amazing i remember my first fun experience with it back on the Gamecube. Mikami-sans masterpiece was well refined and the tension was great through out the game. Enjoyed it countless times on other platforms the PS2, PS3, PS4 and Switch.
Without Resident Evil 4, we wouldn't have got games like Dead Space and The Evil Within. Shoutout to the team members that got tired of making the same gameplay style of the earlier RE games, without them we probably wouldn't have gotten Mikami's and Kobayashi's new vision and new direction for the original RE4 game. RE4 is the best!
I still remember when i played it the first time it was a totally different experience for me it took me around 20 days to finish the game it was so intense and the story the environment it was scary at that time everyone was talking about this game ,for me the most disturbing part was playing through the island level i was too scared of the regenerator i just used to try to avoid him. Amazing game ♥️ i still jave the HD version
the island may have been short but it was my favorite part of that game I'm not saying the rest of the game wasn't good the whole game was awesome and scary but the island was the scariest part of the game in my opinion the atmosphere was the most unsettling
I really appreciate their work. It is one of the most popular and addictive game for me, i have played it plenty of time and i really never get bored. I want them make further series of Resident Evil franchise like RE8 RE9 RE10 and so on😍
This is the best game i ever played in my childhood even till now. Because I loved the game so much and more the characters. I just loved the characters. They were awesome. 🤘🤟🤠. I think creators should make other parts also with same Characters like Leon and Ada.
These guys did EXTREMELY great and hard job! I don't know what it is called to bring actors, put sensors and dots on them to simulate their body movements and facial expressions, NO they didn't do that it's all manual wow! One of the best game ever, I wish I can re experience the first time I played it.
The persons behind RE4 game is a genius,, i cant believe that this 16 year old game can still beat the other game that was released on this generation,,even other RE series like 5 and 6 cannot beat this masterpiece.
I got my wii in 2013 and got resident evil 4 in 2014-15 its my first resident evil game and man its terrifying, so many puzzles and enemies but its hella fun the puzzles and enemies in 4-3 and 2 definelty got me, takes me forever to solve he puzzles
@@White927 By now, I've played all Metal Gear Solid games, every Portal and Half-Life game along with its many DLCs and fan remake, every entry in the Prince of Persia trilogy, both the old and the new God of War games, Wolfenstein, Undertale, Uncharted, Devil May Cry, Spec Ops: The Line, Tomb Raider, and I have never made a more true statement than that comment you see above.
I watched this video back in 2005/2006, when I was 18/19 years old. Some of the people from back then will be working on the upcoming RE4 Remake. This is really great! I hope there is an upgrade to the body-specific damage system pioneered in the original RE4, and for melee attacks to return in some shape or form.
I Finish it in December 2020 after several years without play it, and Still Playing with Special Suite in January 2021 I cant stop playing this game!!!!
Im going back to these videos just of the new teaser for the remake, I wouldnt think capcom would do a vid like this now but man It would be sooo cool to see them going back at reimagining and rebuilding the game that made everyone fall in love with the franchise as a kid I was scared playin on my WII and now as a 21 year old im more than excited to see this game as a grown adult, go ahead try me capcom scare me (PS its a joke dont scare me too much)
You got me as a fan of the series because of the ps4 port of this. Now I have it on 3 consoles. Capcom, arigatogozaimasu for making the best game ever made
Actually you have to arigato Shinji Mikami for it. As creator of whole series and RE4. Capcom just make them money for it. They do not make a game they only sell. This was shown by the experience of those parts that were after successful RE4. I’m not trying to be smart ass just dot the “I”. Because Mikami also worked on his game Evil Within at TG.and after he abstracted from the project, this series was also destroyed by making a stupid sequel. Someone may say that it was a successful sequel. But in my understanding it’s like RE6 right after RE4.
I wonder what their reaction was to how successful and iconic the game turned out to be. I bet they never thought that they were creating one of the best games ever to be made.
JacobRyuu I like this beta version where Leon had to struggle with the chainsaw, like trying to push back Salvador (the chainsaw guy) before his head got decapitated rather than instant kill in the final product.
I had this game on my wii and hadn't finished it yet then my wii broke, now I have it on my PS4 very slowly but surely going through this nightmare again this game is terrifying, idk why I wanted to put myself through this again
Was hoping they would show in depth some of the guns they recorded to be used for in game. Still a decent behind the scenes for one of the greatest games.
Nearly 2 decades later and this game is still remembered more than most games these days probably because developers cared about the product and we didn't get complacent with our standards and settle for trash and scummy microtransactions like shark cards and loot boxes in our game ripping us off what happened to where quality of games was the focus and not the quick cash grabbing. WHAT HAPPENED TO GAMES BEING AHEAD OF THE TIME THEY WERE MADE AND WERE GAMES THAT CHANGED GAMING AND EVEN IF THEY DIDN"T THEY HAD SOMETHING OR SOME THINGS GOING FOR THEM THAT MADE THEM GOATED TO PLAY MILLIONS OF TIMES. Only complaint about this game is the fact there is no option to keep Leon's brown bomber jacket
Un juego bien hecho es eterno, este juego como el ajedrez es perfecto en todo sentido, divierte tanto que mínimo lo paso entre 2 a 3 veces al año y aún me sorprende
RE4 is still a classic survival horror game. But these days, it's still fun, challenging and popular. The game may be a colossial failure, but it hits successful work and rise to the breathtaking generation.
RE 4 Leon is the best Leon.
It’s easier to die than disagree.
But not best RE
v0id 1217 RE4 IS THE BEST RE GAME PERIOD
Re2 leon is also good
Honestly if they remake 4 in the new engine after 3... I hope they style the new leon to be like this one. That hair flap though lmao.
and just like that, one of the most incredible games of all time were made.
@sadiq2008 and how did RE4 destroye it? lool
@sadiq2008 Actually the exact opposite. Capcom changed the formula because even they were getting bored of it. Res 6 was the one that tarnished the franchise. but clearly they have made the bounce back.
Now it's getting a remake 😁
