let's settle this once and for all, which one is better? and why?
Remake. I like Leon's jacket in that one more.
>>736587113I bet you like your dad's cock more than your mom's too you little faggot
I think the constant threads is proof that the original is better. If remake was better, people would've accepted it by now.
Leon 2004 feels like a different character, as if it were a new game unrelated to the franchise
>>736587154this mod is insane
Remake Leon (2r, 4r, 9) is way more consistent as a character. If you value this, he's better.OG Leon (2, 4, 6) is awfully inconsistent, but 4 Leon is the best version of the character ever made.
RE4make suits the new tone cohesively, RE4OG has better set pieces and is longer
>>736587042theyre too different compared to something like fatal frame 2 remake. you can play both and have a solid 20hr of fun
>>736587042Both are dogshit.Resident Evil ended with 3. REmake, RE0, Code Veronica, etc. They all don't exist. Fuck Capcom.
Personally I prefer the original but I think they're both great. The biggest difference maker for me is the story, I think the story and the voice acting in the remake are really, really bad, which is a shame because I don't feel outright negatively about basically anything else
>>736587154Best fan remaster of any game period
RE4make Leon is better because he's not an Ada simp and tells her to fuck off at the end
>>736587294I bet you also think Mario never should have gone 3D
I declare the general consensus is RE4 remake has better combat and a few other things, while the OG is better at everything else such as the atmosphere, music, dialogue, cutscenes, designs, etc, and since gameplay is the most important, they're both on par with each other.
>>736587172Yeah no one denies that the remakes of Metroid Prime or Pokemon Gold are better, it's just self evident. 4 is more controversial
>>736587374i liked og's gameplay more idk why, felt more satisfying to me
>>736587154Soul vs soulless
>>736587374Not that I would want to go against the newly declared general consensus but I think you can give some preference to the gameplay of the original just because enemies aren't nearly as bullet spongy. When I shoot an enemy in the original it feels like they're either going to be staggered, open to a kick or have their head explode. In the remake it feels like I need 4 shots to do anything, I don't like that
>>736587324It's retarded how they took the most campy RE game and decided it needs to be more grounded and serious and made Saddler really boring, meanwhile RE7 to 9 has some of the goofiest villains ever and RE8's setting is way more ridiculous. It makes no fucking sense.
>>736587042Remake is better.
I know Leon gets a lot of shit for turning down the overtime at the end of the game but the fact that he immediately starts flirting with Hunnigan right in front of Ashley is just mean
>>736587042OG Leon wants to bang the hottest woman in the planet, new emo Leon wants to bang some ching chong diversity hire crap with the head the size of a planet.
>>736587042OG4 because Leon is so funny and handsome.
>>736587412It's fun in its own way, a lot more arcadey. It feels like a shooting gallery and the shotgun is just ridiculous with its crowd control. The remake discourages you from staying in one spot and weapons have more realistic applications, but still have the fun right tool for the job strategies.
>>736587575Sherry's head isn't that big
>>736587113Based. It also had better gameplay.
>>736587510>t he immediately starts flirting with Hunnigan right in front of Ashley is just meanI never even realized that, that's hilarious. Come to think of it even his rejection to Ashley was mean and hilarious. All he says "heh, sorry." Not even an explanation, like it's so laughable that she would even dare to ask that. Leon is basically telling her he has no interest in her at all.
>>736587767I didn't think about it until my last play through and I can imagine Ashley watching Leon say>Hey, you're pretty cute without those glasses. Maybe I get your number when I get back? Followed by him getting rejected and just shrugging it off while she's just inconsolably devastated
>>736587185He's basically a proto Dante and that fag from God Hand
Bullet sponges = artificial bloated gameplay
>>736587154Right looks unnatural.
>>736587042Leon? OG. His game isn't trying to be serious which makes his lines funny and him charismatic. Unlike the remake where it's made to be serious which does not help Leon's lines. OG has a better Jacket. He's more competent unlike remake who tries to talk down Mendez or falls down the pit unprepared and survives only cause of luck. Why would Leon who had to deal with Tyrants try to talk to Mendez who towers over him? Every Spanish person he's come across has been trying to kill him. OG goes straight into a kick. When Leon in remake falls down the pit he gets lucky and grabs a chain. What?? OG has a grappling hook cause he's prepared.
>>736587042I don't like RE4R's eyebrows. They're too pronounced. Like a neanderthal.
>>736587042OG
>>736587374>and since gameplay is the most importantI have no idea why people say this about Resident Evil of all franchises. The whole series is just a love letter to hollywood thrillers, the story and atmosphere have always been the primary appeal. Not to say the gameplay is unimportant, but the classic games gladly sacrificed clarity in gameplay for atmospheric camera angles and jump scares. RE4 in particular has a lot of qtes and flashy melee moves in order to look more cinematic. It's always been about roleplaying as action hero moreso than handling complex gameplay mechanics.
>>736588379For you maybe, not for me. I don't like games that solely rely on story and cinematics, they're fun to watch but not to play, and that's not a video game to me. That doesn't apply to RE4 because it's one of my favorite games of all time, because thankfully it has both. RE games have a unique gameplay style you can't get anywhere else. Even the older RE games are fun because while it's cinematic it also has very gamey elements. There's nothing cinematic about tank controls.
>>736587324Saddler has to be the biggest downgrade character wise in the entire series. The original was such a fun villain -- a dude who clearly saw the Las Plagas as a way to achieve power and not something he truly believed in. He was like a scummy guy on 80s/90s TV shilling a new religion as a part of a money making scheme. He was a few steps removed from a dirty used-car salesman, and the best thing is he knew it.Meanwhile remake Saddler actually just acts like a typical 'religious pope' villain who actually believes the shit he's on and is so fucking boring.Salazar got it even worse.
>>736588379re4 is one of the best beat em ups of all time you moron
OG Leon is hilarious and I quote him a lot. The RE storyline isn’t that good, nobody plays RE for the story. But it’s a lot better in 2 and Leon’s characterization is more consistent. He’s still a bit of a wise guy in 4R but going to that from 2R is way better than original 2 to original 4. 4R’s gameplay is more refined than the original’s though it’s a lot more realistic and grounded. Honestly the only thing the remake does 100% better than the original is Separate Ways.
>>736587042Original
>>736587042OG has a cooler jacket and remake has ‘muh TRAUMA and a butt chin.
>>736587042The original, because it isn't a copy/imitation of something great, it isn't afraid to criticize or comment on the appearance of women, and it doesn't have yellow paint in it.
>>736587902og leon mogs nu-re4 leon you're an absolute low t faggot
>>736587042Leon’s hair and jacket in the remake look so bad I refuse to play it without skin mods
Computer, run nude Leon.
>>736587042OG as it has better lines and delivery.>https://youtu.be/bFc27V7BM7o?t=70>https://youtu.be/apWYo8Z-t8U?t=23And more.
>>736587374wrong chuddy, people prefer the remake dialogue and characters more
>>736587042I prefer the spirit of OG but I like the aesthetics and gunplay of the remake better. I hate nu-krauser's voice , I mean to be fair Jim Ward set the bar too damn high but its not just that , the changes in attire(boots under the pants as opposed to tucked inside the boot, wearing the shirt vs the shirtless rambo/warpaint look during the tower fight I mean why the hell make him THAT jacked if you are not going to show it, original motivations vs new ones which feel more generic). I prefer nu-Luis strangely so and Mercenaries feels better too, more responsive I think. I havent tried separate ways yet so I cant cast a vote, if anything is 50/50 with 0. % leaning towards OG for nostalgia reasons.
I love both but it's hard going back to the easier pace of the original after tasting that remake intensity
>>736596384>Regenerators at the CastleEither Mercs or Mods, not at all how the main game plays.
>>736587042I saw a lot of people praising Remake Leon for being a like real man in that situation who has trauma, survivor’s guilt etc. and thus he became gloomy which how a real man would respond. But personally having been in a gloomy state myself I don’t want to see other gloomy men.OgRe4 Leon is what embodies the ideal man who’s been through stuff and survived imo. Dark humour to cope, absolutely up in spirits and keeps the spirits of others up as well(the players in this scenario), cheesy one liners you know he knows are cheesy but it keeps your spirits up. If I was stuck with Leon in a situation I’d adapt pretty quickly and start bantering as well.Taking from CS Lewis we all engage with fantasy and take something from it into our real lives. Heroes should burn brighter the darker the world.I like og for this reason
>>736587042>let's settle this once and for all>doesn't settle this once and for all and theres an hourly thread about itMaybe... it's up to preference....
>>736587201From og2 to 4 would make sense if they addressed the fact that he gets serious around those who were involved in Racoon city, but to everyone else he’s badass, gives one cheesy loners after the other, and acts like the high spirited big brother to Ashley. Remake version gets gloomier.
>>736587113the remake jacket is like 3 sizes too big
>Go to sleep while two OG vs Remake RE4 threads are up>Wake up>New thread has already been madeDamn, /v/ can't stop talking about these games
>>736587042the left one that looks agile instead of looking fat with a butt chin.
>>736587154>different textures but perfectly preserved the color compositionbased
>>736587042vibe of the original is bettergameplay and replayability of the remake is much better
>>736587154Both are assResolution is too high,It should be played at 480i(interlaced)Otherwise Soulless slop on the left,soulles slop on the right.
>>736587042RE4 is better because Ashley's face isn't that weird race fetishit thot, and it's actually fun to play and feels responsive unlike demakeslop.
>>736587407>remake >Metroid Prime
>>736587042Really can't decide. I like OG Leon's fun-loving attitude, but remake Leon's character is more consistent with his life experiences, and he is more handsome.
how is the dlc? worth 10 bux or just skip it?
>>736597057Remake Leon is just an asshole both in 2 and 4. Poor Ben and Luis
>>736603092Worth it, but for full priced main-line game, the Separate DLC really should've been free
>>736587042Original always.
>>736587042The combat in the original feels more satisfying IMO. The combination of animations, gun sfx, etc.
>>736587042Both are good games.If we are talking about Leon then the original is superior, no questions asked.
>>736587042Character or game again? Character - Leon OG no contestGame side by side? - Remake slightlyWhich one was more influential? OG no contest.
>>736596024>people prefer the remake dialogue and characters moreLol, aside from Ashley most people prefer OG characters, especially Leon and villains.
I've sunk some hours into the remake for sure but the original is still better to me. I just think it feels better to play. I don't like the direction they took the player movement in 4R and Requiem. Going back and playing 2R and 3R, those games feel like the perfect compromise between realism in animations and responsiveness. No idea why they changed it the way they did. People say it's to account for the gameplay changes but I just think that's cope. Leon's kicking all kinds of ass in Requiem, they don't even pretend like playing as him should be challenging, there is no reason for him to control like you're going through a sewer section the entire game.
