Itagaki (creator of Ninja Gaiden, may peace be upon him) famously said the RE4 remake was better than the original because it was more difficult. Is it true? Does difficulty = quality? Or do you agree with the /v/ consensus that RE4R is too hard and hard games are unfun?
>>736591728Hey it's the Devil's Third guy.
>>736591728Misinformation. He said this about DMC4, not RE4.
>>736591728>I believe that every video game needs a remake after every 10yrsBased itagaki
This man had far more misses than hits.But so has Capcom.
What's the point of all these threads? It's one guy samefagging until he gets bored
>>736592060>Saved team ninja from bankruptcy >Made doa 1-4(one of the best 3d fighting game)>Made ninja gaiden 1 and 2(the best 1vX combat system in any action game)
>>736591728who gives a fuck what dead oatmeal face has-been thought? every clip of itagaki is him trying to act cool with a cigarette, what a fag
rip oatmeal
>>736591880>that's the joke.jpg
>>736591728>In RE4 (2005) the enemies don't do anything>they're the only ones reacting to shots from your guns while the remake has prehistoric gunplay
>>736591728He probably did say that about the original, but there's 0 proof of him saying the demake is better
1UP: Speaking of your enemies, Tekken 5 just came out in North America (and we know how you feel about Tekken), but doesn't feature any sort of online play, multi-tiered stages, or tag-team play. Do you think they chickened out of the online arena?Itagaki: First they put in all of these half-finished "features", then they take them right out again. Tag fights, elevation differences, walls. I don't know if it's because they're impatient, or because they lack the ability, but no matter the reason those guys are a pretty weird bunch. Any of those things would have become a bonafide feature if they took the time to do it right (laughs). Oh, and come on guys, let's quit trying to hide the prehistoric nature of the main product by tacking on some absurd "bonus game." I have been saying this for 5 years, haven't I? If you have the time to make an action-style "bonus game", why don't you create an honest-to-god action game and sell it as a standalone product? Oh, and if you're going to bother including such a "unique" form of ball play, you should do a beach volleyball game instead (laughs).
RE4 demake is artificial difficulty nonsense. Watch that autist's 16 hour video on the RE4 remilk break down the first village encounter and he pretty much explains why the combat is so shittily designed. Now I'm an RE4 hater and the think the original is too easy. Both games suck and are overrated as fuck.
>>736599247holy
>>736591728OG RE4 with a mouse or Wii remote is easy mode. Okay, so play the gamecuber version. However, later versions of the game past the Gamecube nerfed ammo drops and made a few guns weaker.So you have this weird situation where the best way to play the game is either the PS2 version or Wii with a gamecube controller.
>>736599247He was too fucking based for this shithole world.
>>736591728You say this like Itagaki wouldn't hate the RE4 remake for having a poorly implemented parry system.
>>736591880this, when RE4 remake was released he was too busy making NFTs
>>736591728How did some influencer managed to brainwash 4chan into worshipping Itagaki?
>>736591728>gets big with a bad fighting game series that's only popular due to waifuslop>makes NG, a game that needed a remaster to be decent and still suffers from total dogshit mechanics>fails to improve with NG2>endlessly talks mad shit about devs who are far more innovative and accomplished>fucks off from his studio and makes a total piece of shit that nobody wanted and is so bad it isn't even ironicallly enjoyable>meanwhile his former team ends up making Nioh, a far better series than anything Itagaki made>continues to talk shit while not making games and fading into obscurity>throws what remains of his dignity in the trash to shill for NFTs well after the point everyone knew they were a scam>fucking diesWhat did he mean by this?
>>736599247Itagaki was always right about Tekken, even when he was joking just to piss of his pal Harada
>>736591728>the creator of devils thirdopinion accepted
>>736591728Remake 4 is garbage. The original is better in every way
>>736592712Why would Oatmeal Cookie-san give a single flying fucking thought what retarded consoymerists think swallowing down whatever half-finished, sad excuses of software you play when you could've had the best possible experience of any given software had the devs given even an ounce of effort that he did>>736599247Fucking based
>>736604618>>736591816awesome game. anyone peddling Devil's Third hate to this day does not deserve the right to play video games.
>>736604407Gain height
>>736592470>Made doa 1-4(one of the best 3d fighting game)Doa is the most forgetable fighting franchise on the market. It's kept alive by porn alone>Made ninja gaiden 1 and 2(the best 1vX combat system in any action game)Only NG1 is good. NG3 shits the bed on higher diffs because this retarded hack though spamming your screen with exploding shit made the game better. He's a hack that was carried by someone else.
>you'll never be a talented game dev and constantly shit on your talented game dev friend's game to troll everyonewhy even live
>>736591728Didn't RE4 dynamically alter the difficulty if you played like a shit?
>>736604626
Bullet sponges = bloated gameplay. Take that shit back to mmos where it belongs
>enemies are "bullet sponges" because they aren't fragile pushovers that die when you look at them.Just stick to cod, kid.
>>736605841>>736605947Started playing 4 remake last night cuz a friend wanted me too.Re4 feels like gun fu, pure fun.4 remake has been fucking infuriating me because I'll shoot a ganado.in the fucking face point blank and they don't react at all, putting me in an extreme disadvantage.It's more difficult but feels horribly unrewarding and unresponsive.Every action in RE4 is satisfying.I think they're both good so far, it's weird to have the same game twice but feel so drastically different though.
>>736606046If I shoot you, I expect you to stagger at least a little. 3 bullets for that is one too many. >>736606069Anons keep saying once you upgrade your weapons or get new ones it's less spongy. Rather just use a damage mod desu
>>736606046Bro shooting something in the face and the enemy not reacting at all sucks cock no matter what the game. That feels cheap as fuck, they are most definitely bullet sponges in the worst fashion.It makes gunplay unsatisfying, simple as that.Re4 might be one of the most reaction and audibly satisfying games I've ever played. That's probably why I keep coming back to it year after year.
>>736606069That's why you shoot the ganado in the head multiple times before they get too close to you. If the ganado is right up in your face then you've already fucked up. And scoring 4 headshots in a row to stagger and kick ganado feels more rewarding than one hit stunning ganados in the og.
>>736605841>shooting enemies :(>shooting enemies but the protag does a dempsey roll every 0.5 seconds :)
>>736606193>>736606194You just want the game to be easy, just be honest. You don't have to make excuses up.
>>736606238Should I be in their face for a kick, or should I be at distance fighting the games aiming system to try and land 4 fucking head shots? Which is it?
>>736606291Beat every other res game on hardest mode. Try again
>>736606334If how to fight the most basic enemy in the game needs to be explained to you then there is no hope for you.
>>736606291No I want the game to be satisfying and fun, like RE4. Difficulty is only relative to how little you know about a game and is inevitably worthless once you play through and beat a game.The original RE4 is definitely easier but has its own challenges, but feels and IS a million times for fun and satisfying to play.Again, I'm enjoying the remake quite a bit unlike what I expected, mainly because the game is royally fucking with me for knowing and playing the original so much.
>>736606342>t. Could only beat remake 4 pro on NG+ with special weapons.
>>736606397Your description is ass backwards and contradictory, youre defending shitty bullet sponge mechanics. Fuck off.
>>736592470>saved team ninja from bankruptcy he was with team ninja at its inception, made like three games and got fired for being a retard thinking he was worth more than he was receiving. stop conjuring up ridiculous myths ya faggot.
>>736606507>Shoot ganado in head a few times at mid to close range until he staggers>Run up and kickHow are you struggling with this? Millions of people(including redditors) managed to do it. Maybe you should just stick to the simple and easy OG.
>>736606613I just cleared chapter one. I have played the game for ~ 1 hour. My trouble is playing hardcore first and the game changing every single rule of re4 so my muscle memory is fucked.I cannot run up and gunfu a SINGLE enemy under any circumstance, with my weak gun this is now leading to the situation where I keep distance and am allowing ganados to bunch up. For example, the dynamite throwing area, aiming for the head is so worthless in this game I was forced to go to those ganados and personally put them down since I didn't dare aim and precision kill them them like I always do in re4.This led me into direct conflict with the groups of ganados around corners, and the shooting in the face from fucking 4 inches away situation rewarding me with sickles in the shoulder since the enemy doesn't react at all.It's not "HARD", I'm playing the game incorrectly because I'm used to a BETTER more reaction rewarding game. But it is what it is. The fact that my headshots are so unreliable and worthless has changed my approach to every situation so far.
>>736606613Oh and Dr. salvador had like 4 times the HP I remember, on a fresh run I had to ignore almost every ganado to try and take him down.That was pretty fucking fun.
>>736591728However difficult you claim re4r to be, it isn't as hard for you as tank controls so I put little stock in your opinion
>>736606496Nope. Haven't even beat the remake. Just messing around in mercs mode, thankfully enemies stagger after one headshot ;)
this lie that enemies dont stagger has to stop, they dont always offer going into melee but they do stagger
>>736606069That's what I like about it. It's semi-random so every fight is always different. The og is pure 1-shot stun arcade so it's boringly predictable after you play through it once.
