I hated the original RE4 but I'm tempted since it's made by the RE2 remake team.
 
Awesome scores! I should be done with Hogwarts Legacy tonight or tomorrow. I'll be ready for this beauty on the 23rd.
 
I don't think this game will sell well. They are being too bold and arrogant releasing it on the same day as Atelier Ryza 3. I will be picking up both though.

Normally I'd argue that Atelier Ryza was a niche game that would have no impact on a game like RE4R, but evidently, Ryza 1 & 2 have sold a combined 1.6 Million copies, which is pretty impressive.

It's those thicc thighs, I guess...
 
The original RE4 was out of this world, so naturally a remake is going to be really good. Based on the scores, I'm thinking that maybe the real game is a bit better than the demo. The demo was good, but I wouldn't automatically say that it was better than original RE4. The visuals are better for sure, but the presentation and some of what I experienced didn't leave me feeling the package is better than the original.

I played RE4 on GCN and Wii. Topping that is not an easy thing to do.

I can't wait. Preloaded and ready to go.

I almost cancelled my preorder due to the number of times I've replayed the original but the demo sold me. Plenty of new surprises and changes.

I can't wait for the PSVR2 patch for this. Has there been much word about a Mercenaries mode? It would be amazing if it had online co-op too but I realize that's getting overly hopeful.

i dunno watching too many review shilling the game and no one mentioning anything about the cut content. even acg this time. not feeling this game is a masterpiece the way reviewers are trying to paint it. could be a great game game though despite the cut content.

I hate that something that was readily available in the series 2 generations ago is hoping for too much now.

Didn't hear anything about it, I guess we'll have to wait for the release. I can't imagine Capcom launching the game with the same issues, pre-launch demos are always using older builds.

The demo only crashes if you turn on raytracing. They should be able to fix that for the final version.

yes, but if I am to paly on 3080, I would be a damn fool to lower any settings, especially RT.
The crashing can be solved by lowering textures to 2gb... but that lowers textures and I still had a crash in the demo ;/

I'm not too bothered about the possibility of Separate Ways being dlc later since I had to buy the whole damn game a second time to play it back in the day.

Could possibly be free too, they did a bunch of free mini missions for the RE2 remake. Separate Ways was originally pretty beefy though, maybe assignment Ada would be free and separate ways would be paid…or maybe all paid.

Saw some hypothesizing that the U3 boss fight could be used for Separate Ways, I like that idea.

Anyway that's all my optimism for the week spent.

I'm a RE purist and hated 4 at first, but this remake is still gonna sell a fuckload... I'm even tempted to give it a shot and see if I enjoy it more
