Hi everyone! Cris here (from the RE4HD project). I really appreciate this video because of the effort you put into capturing the history of the project accurately. The only thing I would say to anyone following the project is that the lion's share of the credit should go to Albert. While I put in thousands of hours into the project, he put in thousands more and was able to get it across the finish line with so many enhancements. Thanks again for such a thoughtful video (and kudos on the Majora's Mask pack)!
Cris, tanto tu cómo Albert hicieron un gran trabajo. Gracias por haber hecho algo tan impresionante.
Thank you both for the amazing work.
As someone who loves RE but more specifically RE4 I truly appreciate all the time you guys put into this mod. It’s beautiful and you should both be so damn proud of yourself.
thank you so much for making this dude, it really makes my nostalgia for the first game I've ever beaten come to life, as a kid this is how the game looked to me and also keeping the GPU requirements within reason unlike so many other game retexture/reshade/remodel mods which put even new hardware to the test
amazing work you guys
I think the most impressive thing is that this dude had no real experience and doesn't even intend to pursue a career in videogames, he just did it because he felt like it and overshadowed every HD remaster Capcom has ever done.
Hell, they both overshadowed nearly every HD remaster ever made!
What a chad.
The Power Of Passion.
Capcom's a lot more enthusiastic about fan games and mods than other publishers, and they've even had a direct influence on certain games like the RE2 Remake and Mega Man 11.
What these modders did, they did BECAUSE they have no experience in video games. Capcom artists weren't going to get paid to make all of those assets the correct way, and they weren't super important details, so of course they were skipped during development. In retrospect, this is what rushing your game and not taking the time to make it look proper does, but in the short term it makes perfect sense why all the non-poly assets were made, and it's not as much about stable frame rate as we'd all like to believe.
I can't believe Wesker and Chris broke the fourth wall and became real to fix the textures of Leon's game. What pals!
"Chris, there are a lot of low-res textures in that mansion. Check them out one more time."
Hqhsjashsj thanks to both, this made me laugh
Anything for the Redfield bloodline
Also Wesker is misunderstood
Wesker wants to see Leon die in HD and Chris wants to make Leon happy so he finally agrees to continue the Redfield bloodline with Claire.
@@PorkpieJohnny Man, this made me laugh hard enough that my stomach hurts now LOL.
Ok that stuff about RE4 textures being based off real Spanish land marks and the creator actually GOING TO THE SPECIFIC SPOTS TO TAKE PHOTOGRAPHS is cool as hell. A very impressive effort.
I was pogging when I saw that shit.
he was truly dedicated
But it was plagued with controversy, a lot of the texture in the Original game was found to be plagiarised from some photographers works. I cant remember which youtuber made that video, but it exist.
@@safwansaid5139 You can't 'plagiarize' a photo. Why? Because a 'photographer' is 'plagiarizing' real life in whatever they are capturing with their light capturing device. We can go through a neverending spiraling of who is 'copying' what, and in the end it doesn't matter and only hinders people.
@@safwansaid5139 albert bought the rights to use those sources iirc. and so did capcom after the controversy. a controversy which was purely on capcom's side, as the hd project team didnt steal anything in the first place.
The praise for this incredible RE texture pack hits so much harder, as it's coming from a guy who made 6,000+ new textures for his own HD pack (Majora's Mask). Congrats Cris & Albert!
They certainly aren't jobbers
btw it's not just textures, it's also models, animations, and actually some coding! the re4-tweaks fix made by another team is included with it too.

I had no idea that CAPCOM pinned a link to the mod... That's a great sign of faith, and warms my heart. It shows how much they've grown as a company. ♥
Hell yeah. Can never see Nintendo doing anything like that.
@@BreadCatMarcus Nintendo sets the bar so low that all any other company has to do is not be a complete prick to its customers
@@salsamancer word
Stintendo(or Stingtendo)
Capcom has always been pretty good about fan-made content. Mega Man X Street Fighter was a fan game they hosted on their website themselves because they were so impressed by it, and they've outright promoted the Mega Man fan movie. The fan-made Street Fighter Legacy short film impressed them enough that they effectively allowed Street Fighter Assassin's Fist to be an official web series, and even cited it as an inspiration for the story mode in Street Fighter V.
I can't say they're perfect as they did take down subtitled Ace Attorney Investigations 2 videos from UA-cam (though those videos came back just days later so perhaps it was in error or they backtracked to avoid backlash) but Capcom's stance towards fan-made content is usually more positive than not.
The fact that it's "Chris" (Cris but same pronunciation) and "Albert" is just too much, those names have to actually be coincidences because that's just too good to be true
I should try this out, been considering to play Resident Evil 4 for a long time and this could bring a good first experience
do it
dude you’re actually everywhere what
Totally, now it's the time
Same for me. Sometimes it pays off to keep games in the backlog
Definitely do it, it's what I did. Had never played RE4 till I heard about this mod from a friend. Been hooked for the past 2 weeks lol!
Nerrel is in his prime when talking about fan made content.
I see what you did there...

Nerrel could talk about cardboard for 14 minuites and I'd still watch it
You heard 'em Nerrel. Time to make a video about Nintendo Labo.
@@verdantwizard uP
Cardboard, you know the construction can range from a thick sheet known as paperboard to corrugated fiberboard right?
He could make The Simpsons' "we only make cardboard boxes to ship nails" guy sound interesting.
Yeah man I never played any RE game nor am I looking to start any time soon but I clicked on this right away
Capcom actively promoting the mod is cherry on top that I absolutely wasn't expecting. Goddamn, shades of how much better the industry could be if it embraced fan work.
I hope no mid-manager from capcom ruin this right.
I bought the PC version of RE4 just so I could use this mod! Then after I tried it out, I sent some money to the mod makers! So, everyone won! Capcom made more money off an old game, the mod makers get some pocket money and I revisit an old favourite that's received a Hell of an upgrade! Truly incredible. I hope Capcom keeps being smart and doesn't suddenly decide to come after this project with lawyers.
Nerrel consistently finds the definitive way to play any and every game, i love it.
Great way to summarize his best content! Found the channel due to him featuring Majoras mask after the disappointing official remake
This channel didn't change much after how many years past. Still quality. Still v o i c e. I'm glad you got the following you deserved.
Nerrel is just so 🌟v o i c e🌟
He'll still sound like a bored millennial in his 20s 60 years from now
@@thecorruptedbit5585 he spoke a little faster this time
This. What a nice wholesome comment. Three cheers for Nerrel 🙌
@@iyankku two cheers plus one yell and a whisper.
Even AFTER the release of the remake, HD pack is still available and still pinned. Also having watched several of the "dev react" video regarding the RE games and the RE remakes, the devs actually love seeing what creative stuff people do, whether it's interesting speed running glitches, mods, etc. Capcom as a company may have issues, but the dev support it
RE4 and RE4R are different games that follow the same story. I beat RE4R twice (once on hardcore and once on pro) and I can confidently say that they are two different games that give the same experience.
@@moegreene3630 by ur logic, u mean, they are different games, but when playing them, u have gotten same experience 💀
@@BlackThief843what was the point of your comment? What is up with snobby weirdos on the internet? You just literally repeated what I said, but added “by ur logic” like you’re about to pull out a calculator and do the math, and a skull emoji like that was supposed to make me feel like something I said was wrong? It’s 2 different games, made to emulate what’s almost the exact same story. Fuckin nerd🤣
That broken butterfly that "goes a little overboard" with the specular highlights is actually that way in the vanilla game. The one found in the treasure room is a unique shiny model when viewed in that 3D examine screen, when compared to the one you can buy.
I wish more companies would accept modding communities, modders sell games, I've brought games on multiple platforms because of mods, it's a big selling point and i wish more companies would release modding tools or promote mod projects
No joke I bought Kenshi on two different platforms, just because I wanted access to Steam Workshop.
Mods. Sell. Games.
I bought Sonic Adventure 2, SADX, Rivals of Aether and Zoo Tycoon 2 for mods alone
every console player who moved to PC has re-purchased at least one Bethesda game, that's for sure
Remasters shouldn't be in your face, they should look how you remember the game looking as a kid.
Ive never played this game but the amount of effort the modders put into this is outstanding, it puts 90% of official remasters to shame
For real. Your brain doesn't tend to remember the blurry textures and stuff from these older games(unless they were a particularly bad example), so it's nice to basically have these games preserved as people remembered it(or, if it's your first time, as good as it looked to gamers back then).
The problem is when you do that everyone goes "they didn't change anything! rip-off!".
@@cookieface80 that usually happens if they just do a basic AI upscale, don't change the lighting at all, or don't fix well known bugs.
Keeping the art style the same while improving the visuals is exactly what most people want out of remasters
This project proved RE4 doesnt need a remake, it just needed a proper remaster.
And yes, just like with the AM2R (who was hired by the studio behind the Ori games) this guy should be hired by Capcom, the ammount of work and dedication in this mod is INSANE.
Well, I dunno about proving "needing" a remake or not. I like remakes. Remasters are great and all but generally I'm fine playing the original version. A remake is basically a new game in the same spirit. I sure liked RE2R a whole lot more than the original, unlike Nerrel. Guess having both can satisfy everyone. (coughmakearemasteroftheoriginalanunlockableintheremakecough)
@@Xbob42 Most remakes aren’t in the same spirit though.. RE2 Remake felt WAY different than the original RE2 in tone and atmosphere.
@@user-qe7bt9dz1l I know to a purist what you said sounds like a negative, but that's exactly why a remake (not a remaster) is attractive to me: A reimagining of the original concept. In other words, a new game, but familiar. I would have almost no interest in a "remake" of RE2 that was just the original game. but made fancier looking. I'm sure that has its appeal for some people, but I like new ideas. I don't want to play the same shit over and over forever.
I also disagree entirely about RE2R not being in the same spirit. I think that's really, really stretching it. But of course a nebulous concept like spirit and how we interpret it isn't really a debate that's going to land us anywhere other than resenting each other for things that are out of our control.
Look at re4vr, texture is way better than original, why didnt they create a patch with thoses for pc?
I just want my Leon to be able to walk and shoot in RE4
If capcom turns this into a black mesa situation then I'd just be absolutely happy
I want Nerrel to be the narrator of everything I do in my life
I saw IGN comments complaining about this mod without understanding that it took years of a couple people’s time and effort to make and they released it completely for free. How does anyone not look at this and think it’s not the definitive version of RE4?
Excuse me? Send me the link bruh, this can't be real.
@@grukox5160 it’s just the comment section of the article. The actual journalist was praising it and rightfully so.
@@SaberRexZealot It's crazy how entitled and bratty people can be with FREE things. I saw the same attitude from people on many comparison videos, one guy straight up said "iS noT thAt BaD, bUt it DoSn't lOOK thAt difFerent", others saying "when will they stop rereleasing this game?, they expect me to pay money again!??", and then just some harmless funny comments like "is it available on Ps3?/PS4?Xbox?"
Your mistake is that you went into the IGN comments section
Because people that still consistently and unironically use IGN and Gamespot as a source for gaming news are the dumbest example of gamers there is.
I appreciate that the people who put the project together are named Chris and Albert, true resident evil fans.
I love 2 things in this video:
1- The release of a project of the best resident evil game ever made
2- How troll Nerrel is
The “best” RE game?? That’s debatable… It wasn’t even Resident Evil considering it changed so much.. it basically borrowed the characters and the name and made a totally different game.. masterpiece though except the TRUE RE games are the first original 3 and the RE1 Remake.. everything else are completely different games entirely and barely survival horror WHICH RE IS SUPPOSED TO BE…
@@user-qe7bt9dz1l A majority of the Resident Evil games are more action oriented now. Sure, it started as survival horror, but it moved on to other things. It's like saying that Super Mario 64 isn't a real Mario game, as it went from a level-to-level challenge run to an open-ended collection. The action and survival horror games are both Resident Evil, one is not more Resident Evil than the other.
Resident evil 5 is better

About the n64->3ds Zelda ports
Their overall brightness and saturation was changed to be more readable in direct sunlight, as the portable console was likely to encounter poor lighting conditions
Yeah, similar to GBA games being super bright and saturated cause of the terrible screen
Nerrel mentioned this in his reviews it's just that in hindsight for how these games are preserved it wasn't the best choice. Obviously you can't shame Nintendo for the decision as it was made for a propietary system it's still something that needs to be addressed when explaining a point.
@@gvulture1277 I rewatched the OOT video to make sure
He stated that the brighter and more saturated style better represents the concept art, but that it ruined the atmosphere of darker areas
However, he did not mention the compromise regarding portable play on the 3ds itself
@@Cheesecannon25 confession time, he was never playing it on a 3ds.....
"Gives Capcom a license to go nuts with their remake." You were 100% right on the money there dude! They definitely did.
There are aspects of both that I enjoy more than the other. That's a good testament considering how most remakes end up turning out.
This is ONE story where everyone is happy. Wish there were more.
For all the flak Capcom always gets, they certainly aren't nearly as hostile towards their customers as they could get away with.
I heard Albert got hired by Nightdive! Nice work, lad!
This mod paired with a gyro control scheme elevates this game somehow even more
Props to capcom for being cool about these two dudes with such an insane amount of passion for the game. Would be badass if capcom would let sell the hd project and give these fellas the cut they deserve. Such dedication is a rarity these days. Retaking the irl pics in Spain? Mind blowing.
Bad news. Modding in Capcom games is now completely fucked, including RE4 HD, thanks to backported DRM.
This HD Mod of RE4 is literally Art Preservation in all of his glory
Update, he has been hired on at Nightdive, a dev that specializes in retro remasters.
One thing to point out about the 3DS remakes of OoT and MM that I think everyone overlooks is that they were on the 3DS, which is a console you can take outside. They over-brightened some darker areas so systems like the 2DS and original 3DS (which are darker than something like an IPS 3DS XL) would allow people playing in bright sunlight to still see and enjoy the game. I get it's a sore spot because of accuracy and preservation, but if you have ever tried to play a really dark game on a handheld system outside in the sunlight, you'll start to see why this change was made.
you're right, but in my opinion they should have given an option to switch back to the original color palette
@@ewerton8463 that would be the best way to handle it for sure
Didn't seem like a big deal to me, oot isn't a spooky game anyway, what's the deal?
@@trashtrash2169 it certainly was for me back when i was 5 and played it for the first time when it came out
@@trashtrash2169 For the most part no it wasn't. But certain areas were definitely trying to be.
So it does suck that a part of that was lost in the transition.
The love and dedication these guy had for this incredible game is truly great! I miss the days when people were super passionate when working on the things they love.
This is insane. Incredibly impressive. Phenomenal work. If only my beloved Code Veronica could receive such care and attention....Amazing work!
Everybody won. These modders got amazing attention and kudos, and the new RE4 remake is incredible.
Donated 50 bucks to these wonderful people and they did not disappoint, they surpassed every possible expectation I could have had, so happy for them and their work, an incredible piece of art they have contributed
This is absolutely hot dang beautiful
As someone who was conflicted with all the changes I saw in the upcoming Remake I'm very happy I stumbled onto this video.
I'm so proud of the RE Fandom, they're so dedicated
Capcom seems to be one of the only major companies that doesn't have a legal department that hates modding. God bless those lawyers, or at the very least the people at Capcom that have the sense to tell the lawyers to stop lawyering for a minute.
More like they know what modder can do.
They aren't Nintendo
Update he's been hired by Nightdive Studios
Omg i can't believe this. The sheer amount of details in this. I can't even begin to imagine the hard work and time spent on this! Insane!
Remake was good but "something was lost with that new direction" i feel you brother😅
Didn't know till today that Nerrel singing Gwen Stefani was something that I needed in my life, but here we are.
Truly, we dwell in an age of wonders.
I had just watched Jacob Geller's video on this remarkable project, and it's amazing to see it reach fruition. Great work covering this as per usual.
Thanks for spotlighting this.
I followed the blog for some time, besides no interest in playing it in the near future. The attention to detail is just fascinating.
I love your videos nerrel. You are one of the few UA-camrs that I watch consistently. I have never played a resident evil game before, but you convinced me to play this fan remaster. I bought it on steam and then downloaded the pack and I loved it. I just finished it and it was great
This mod saved me 60$
I have bought the Remake for 40$ and it is wonderfully reimagined Ty capcom and Ty HDProject for letting me experience og in a new light before the Re4 remake released :)
I believe this is the best mod of all time. It's better then anything created before or after it. The sheer amount of work done to make this look so good is amazing. I used to be a die hard fan of RE 4 original, I never wanted to alter the game in any way because it was already perfect. This mod makes it even more amazing then it already was. This is one of those mods were there in genuinely nothing wrong about it. It is easy to install, no bugs, tons of customization, lore friendly, only improves what is already there, does not hinder performance at all. I never play RE 4 without this mod ever again. This is one of the rare cases in gaming where some one with pure talent, passion was given all the time and resources they need to create a masterpiece.
Excellent video to recap the efforts done by these 2 excellent modders. Big thanks to them & you! 💎
Congrats Chris and Albert. Very impressive work!
Wait a minute... the modders are called Chris and Albert....coincidence? I THINK NOT!
@Thawne
Chris and Albert...as in Chris Redfield and Albert Wesker
This is incredible. I don’t think large companies are even capable of coming out with something like this. Over a decade of passion and faithful retouches.
Just discovered your channel, now you are one of my favorite youtubers
I gotta get on this ASAP. I had heard about it but I didn't know how good it was.
I actually wasn't THAT impressed with the remaster, originally, but I had no idea just how much they accomplished here. Thanks for showing off all the hard work!
This project is amazing. They really did go above and beyond with this. it's crazy how much work went into this project, I didn't think it was possible to make an upscale project like this that so accurately transcribes the art direction of the original into something more modern without losing something in the process. RE4 looked great already and I feel like seeing how well this approach to a remaster project has gone is a testament to that fact.
ugh.. hwemon
Incredible review of an even more incredible mod. I can't believe how much better it looks. I've been playing it for 2 weeks now.
Thankfully not the first documented video talk on this project i've seen since it's started making more waves in the last 6 months. Always insightful to see and hear Nerrel's take on things, regardless.
I just bought RE4 on Steam not too long ago. I've never played it before. This pack looks great and I might download it for my first playthrough.
I didn’t remember RE4 being so rough. At the time, at least for me, RE4 had one off the best graphics. Still hold up, by seeing this mod, it just blows it up.
Because it was meant for the CRT era :) Play the GCN or Wii version on a CRT today and it still looks great.
@@thanksbetotap I appreciate the explanation. It’s crazy how one can change a TV for example, without realizing the new technology behind it.
@@betovega91cr91 Cheers. It’s really just that CRTs smoothed over and obscured the lack of detail. So SD games looked really good at the time, and hold up better now on CRTs today as a result.
@@thanksbetotap True 480p GC/Ps2 games on a CRT look way better than I remember it looking.
Great video ! Thanks for mentioning our SHDP Dolphin pack, we definitely have to push the update for RE2, I've been sitting on improved upscales for a while.
Thank you, Nerrel for bringing this RE4 Mod to my attention! I’m super impressed and appreciative of these guys’ hard work on one of my favorite games. It blows my mind that two dudes (one who didn’t have much experience in modding and 3D graphics) were so passionate about a game that they went and out did a huge video game company and it was all on their own time outside their day to day jobs. These two guys and whoever else helped make this HD project deserves all the support they can get which is why I’m definitely donating to their project fund.
After your words, Finally RE4 Real REMASTER is released, and actually capcom appears to have listened and made a great game.
they did indeed make an incredible remake that makes the game a masterpiece for any gamer to play and enjoy
@@bingusenjoyer197 totally agree.
Yeah. But the HD Project still deserves some love too.
Excellent video and comparisons. Also excellent modding work Albert, Chris, and all other involved.
Really glad you made this video, I last checked out the project when it was just a texture pack and they had only gotten up to the castle, I had no idea the magic they pulled off since then.
Re4 is truly a masterpiece
I've been using this mod since 2019 or, much before the 1.0 release, and it was already a much better to play RE4 than the unmodded Steam version. I downloaded ansd installed the 1.0 version as soon as I saw the official announcement, and I've been playing it for a week or so. The work they put on the mod is goes way beyond the standards for fan projects and official remasters, with the new textures and lighting really making the game feel as it did when I played it for the first time, back when it was released: they did a huge update, while keeping the original art style and feel intact. The graphical update alone would've been enough to make this mode mandatory, but the additional updates were also very good: they fixed mouse turning, so RE4 on pc is finally playable with keyboard and mouse without it feeling weird; they fixed the QTE problem in 60 FPS; the option to adjust the FOV is something I never knew I wanted until I tested it on the mod. Really great work, Cris & Albert deserve all the praise and more, and Capcom should give them a job.
Damn, I remember when I followed this project like a die hard fan 4 or 5 years ago. It's insane to see the progress now. Excellent work for the team!
I've never played a game and stopped to look at textures and material maps as much as I did when playing this mod.
If someone were to ask me the meaning of love I'd point them to this mod, the effort, sheer force of will to go hunt all those original places and assets and attention to detail put the whole industry to shame despite not having any damn professional experience what so ever, it's the kind of spirit that used to exist back in the NES era when devs were just nerds like us that loved videogames and not business suits that wanted more microtransactions in their fully priced multiplayer only releases.
I salute you glorious bastards for creating this beautiful remaster that will make an ageless game even more immortal.
A lot of good remasters to look forward to soon honestly- this coupled with P06 (the Sonic 06 remaster literally from the ground up), as well as Operation: Black Mesa (Opposing Force and Blue Shift remakes by Tripmine Studios)
Nerds in their basements> Muti-million companies
Every single time.
I'm glad Capcom recognized these efforts. Maybe in the future we will get the kind of collaboration that Sega had with fans to make Sonic Mania a reality.
"Every single time."
Lmao no. There are infinitely more shithouse mods, conversions, ill-conceived projects and takes by fans. Cris and Albert are true standout paragons.
Thanks for making these videos. Always enjoy hearing about these things.
I learned about this project thanks to this video. I played the game with this mod and it is really an amazing game. Thank you.
I have never played this game before and I would like to give it a go with this new hd mod installed. However, I am unsure which controls will work best with the steam version. Is it playable with gyro controls? And if gyro doesn‘t work well, does the game feel better with the traditional controller scheme or with mouse and keyboard?
Great video as always by the way!
I've never tried it with mouse and keyboard, but playing with a standard gamepad like a 360 controller works really well.
I was using gyro the whole time, works great. You have to either mode shift or use action layers to switch to kb+mouse controls when aiming. Thanks for watching
The hd pack comes with a few qol improvements to mouse aiming, which never felt right in the original. While I still think the wii version is the best one, I would not play re4 on pc with a controller over kb+m
The game was designed around a traditional control scheme and that's what I've always played with, and it still feels great imo.
I have a Steam config that might work for you; it's not perfect and designed for Nintendo controllers but it gets the job done. RE4, and all Capcom games, don't like mixed inputs (kb/m and controller at the same time) so ultimately I bind games like those to kb/m for better mouse aiming. I bind the A key to the A button and then map the keys ingame. ABXY becomes ABXY key presses (and for movement I use IUOP keys, P being down and I being up)
The config's easily findable from Steam's controller configuration tool under the community tab; it's labeled "Resident Gyro 4 V2". It also has instructions for recommended ingame settings and every action is labeled. (some actions are still not labeled ingame correctly because I still use LMB/RMB for zR/RB so the QTEs show up as such.)
tl;dr grab the config from Steam, set it up as labeled and edit the re_tweaks keys as well
We now need SH2 HD Project. The EE group said there is a level and texture editor now so it can be a reality.
We already have it: SH2 Enhanced Edition, another fan-made gem.
@@Fedor_Kisliakov I thought I explained this. Enhanced Edition isn't an HD project, but rather an improved version of the PC version to match more closer to the original PS2. There are currently only subtle improvements to the graphics which are based off the xbox version. This is why I said the EE (Enhanced Edition) group said there is a level and texture editor now which can allow for making improved textures on the level of Resident Evil 4. In their most recent video they have demonstrated this by swapping the trees and inserting a 3d railing in place of a 2d one.
@@ShiningEternity Oh, I see. Hope we'll see it happen someday.
4:00 I think about the term "Proper God-Fearing Shanty" a lot
The difference is just INSANE
It's amazing how 2 guys did a far better job than a group of thousands at Capcom. Like why?!. How hard could it possibly be for a multi billion dollar corporation?. don't tell me that it takes too much time, don't tell me any excuses, Capcom is a massive corporation, they can take the time they need to match the work of a couple of fans. Same goes for all other corporations.
My easy answer is heart bro these 2 love this game and they put their heart into it unlike a "multi billion dollar corporation" who only did it for the money
They spent a lot more time and with passion while a company is only assigned a task in a limited time, also the AI up-scaling technology was not there yet when they did it. Its like comparing artisan work VS industrial production.
@deep mind I could not agree more 👍
lazyness
That's exactly it. Companies answer to investors. And investors want deadlines and results, fast.
These two had no deadlines or investors to answer to. Just pure heart and soul poured in.
7:15 meanwhile 4 million copies of the official remake have been sold in just under 2 weeks and has been overwhelmingly reviewed positively.
Popularity ≠ quality. That being said, it's a solid remake. I just despise when people say "This is obviously good! Look at how many people bought/used/downloaded/streamed it!" It's completely irrelevant. Has nothing to do with whether it's good or not. The CoD franchise is worth 31 billion dollars and it's recycled & copied hot trash. Pop music is played all over every radio station, and yet most of it is a soulless cash grab without heart or innovation. Again, popularity has nothing to do with quality. Nothing at all. They're not linked in any way, shape, or form.
great content as always Nerrel ! lol and that Ending tho !! 😂😂
Looks amazing. Going to have to play it again now.
AAA studios have ZERO excuses for any piss poor "remasters" after seeing what one person can do. This is directed at Konami mostly after their horrendous Silent Hill HD set.
I remember when RE4 was the most amazing-looking game ever made and graphics couldn't possibly get better.
It's so refreshing to see a developer appreciating the work of modders instead of sending them a cease and desist. I'm gonna be honest, I probably wouldn't even bother to complete the game if I was stuck with the vanilla port to PC. Just having a simple FOV slider already drastically improves the experience. Can't wait to see all of the other improvements they've made over 7+ years.
This is great! Super job!
HA! You said you hated it when texture artists make references to Anime and Manga, but there are referenced to the Bible all over the castle! Checkmate Nerrel. Your opinions are wrong 😎

ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNDDDDDDDDDDD a real RE4 remake happens welcome to anyone in 2023 march the new actual remake is going to be released on march 24
and it looks amazing yes i still like this mod its some amazing work but damn the new remake looks amazing
Playing re3 on Gamecube for the first time ever. The HD footage you showed makes it look unreal!
Oh Nerrel posted? Time to rewatch and binge his entire library of videos again
This mod is frickin' awesome, but theres just this one cave wall that is just so obviously not a flat wall texture that it looks like a bad green screen effect. They stuck a high def as fuck image of a cave from a distance and tried to pass it off as a cave wall from close up, but it has clear depth to it and the objects in front and hanging on it look like they're in front of a green screen. I'm sure it was probably a higher def version of what was originally used but when it was as low res as the original game, it's harder to tell.
I hope the creators know that the RE4 remake doesn’t undo any of their hard work. This is it’s own thing, and the end result is masterful.
Excellent video. Just finding you. Very professional voice for narrating. Subbed.
looks absolutely stunning! incredible talent.
I don't even wanna play this game(because I'm a pussy), I'm just happy to see people taking good care of older games, especially when it's through a method that actually allows you to legally own the copy you're playing on.
I'm gonna be honest, RE4 is probably the least horror game a Resident Evil game has ever been. There are two tense moments top, both because the enemy types are harder to kill, but overall, it's mostly action with some good supply management.
It's not scary. Unless you find zombies scary, but I grew numb to them.
@@iroga9764 I'm not too scared of zombies, though I will admit that jumpscares get to me. I just don't don't tend to play games like RE4 because I'm not good at games of a certain difficulty, and RE4 looks like that type of game. Sure, I could probably get cheats to help, but it feels like that would kinda defeat the point in this case.
@@YourUncleBenis I see
@@YourUncleBenis the game has an adaptable difficulty, if you struggle, the game adapts by spawning slightly less zombies and making them easier to kill.
Dude i finished it yesterday and i was afraid that while i was playing the game, i was gonna gone numb to the upgrades, but i was totally wrong. The new stuff is so strikingly good that i was on awe the whole time (specially the island portion, because it always looked rough).
I've been looking forward to this project for like 6 years now and it exceeded all my expectations
Edit: i just want all those AI upscaled bachgrounds on 2 and 3 to be aviable in the sourcenext versions :(
You made my day, Nerrel.
Damn I'm totally sold. Thanks Nerrel!
I've been waiting patiently for this HD project for what feels like a decade and I'm happy to see it turn out so great. Here's hoping that the official REmake goes in a different direction like reviving the hookman demo concept.
