it wasn't
>>746055061dialogue and audio were much better in the original
Because it changed the paradigm of gaming by perfecting third-person shooters. Otherwise we would have been stuck with Winback clones. The remake is just an asset flip with cut corners and worse visuals.
>>746055061Plays better, it's snappierthe remake is redundant, and I think tone and characterization are worse (let's not even start with the absolute TRASH tier voice actress they got for Ada)
>>746055140The remake doesn't even have fucking laser pointers, get your shit ass opinion outta here and put it in the trash, where it belongs.
Faster paceBetter voice actingScarierMore areasNo microtransaction ticket4R is still fun but it should've been a new game, not a remake.
it defined the genrethis is why remakes suckyou never understand why the developers made the game the way they made it so you end up making an inferior product that clashes with what people like from the originalalso imagine a game having fucking DLC for overpowered weapons and treasure
>>746055061Gameplay wise, it isn't. Asthetics wise, the OG doesn't have yellow paint splattered everywhere.
I actually had some fun with the remake after installing a mod that makes enemies stumble with every shot like in the OG
>>746055338You obviously didn't play the remake, or you have a shitty memory.
>>746055061Tank controls. Not being able to move while shooting and reloading.
Overtime with Ashley
>>746055061Why would politics be involved?
>>746055568No way fag
>>746055061People came up with ideas for the original game, different people tried to replicate those ideas while conforming it to modern audiences and a specific graphics engine for the remake.
>>746055061leon is way hotter in the OG
Ada had a competent voice actress.
Original game's reload animations give me wood.
>>746055612based
>>746055061>based intoxicating power> lame little lambSaddler was better as douchebag terrorist, Salazar as a small timer aristocrat, krauser working for wesker. They somehow butchered mendez too
>>746055061Movement is way better in the original.
>>746055061it's better in some ways, worse in others. fishing for headshots into melee hits was too easy, and enemy AI is generally very slow so it's easy to run around most things. RE4R has better combat balance in that there's more risk to the reward of a melee attack in the perfect parry, but it also makes handguns feel worse in particular because enemies will straight up tank shots like it's nothing. zombies tanking handguns in RE2R was fine because they were zombies, but the las plagas cultists are still quite human, so them shrugging off bullets can feel awkward. You can also get faster kills on enemies with the knife at the cost of more meter, giving up defensive potential for a burst of offense. That all said I think the original's levels are generally much better, only section I think that was a worthwhile change was the additional lake content in 4R. 4OG also has a much better UI, and the tone is consistently campy where 4R tries to be more serious and fails at it I think.
>>746055061i think they made leon too young in the remake
>>746055061Things RE4 Does Better >AnimationsThe models are blocky, and that actually works well for those wacky animations. The Remake had to add momentum and other stuff to accommodate the increased graphical fidelity, and it suffers from “big head syndrome.” Anyway, RE4 is kind of like MK, where the high-fidelity animation models clash with the fast-paced nature of the game. Not even in those nitpicky videos do they mention this. Like in MK, the cutscenes are incredible, but in motion it looks off>ToneThis also affected the tone; they made what’s an over-the-top game less over-the-top, when the setting calls for it. EW and subsequent Mikami games managed to get this right. GOW is another game that has these huge, chunky models and manages to disguise these issues. And GOW has a sort of “tanky” control scheme. The wall shenanigans showcase the series’ UT DNA even more than the grungy graphics.Those are the only issues. QTEs were by far the worst part of the original game, and the “parryslop” and complaints that you can’t cheese the game anymore because enemies have gained armor are also dumb. Turtling is punished, so you have to play smarter than in the original game. And parrying kind of encourages turtling, but positioning is even more important than in RE4.
>>746055061Fire breathing dragon statues
>>746055509does the mod also make it that the bullet goes where you're actually pointing at?But if a game needs mods to be fun, it may be fun but it's not the game the devs made and should not be judged positively. RE4RE is mediocre and the fact it is praised proves the people deserve all the suffering.
>>746055219>mono footstepsfuck no
Because I believe in Crowbcat and he CAN'T take an L. He is un-Lable. So the remake sucks. Sorry chuds.
>>746055061It realized Resident Evil was never scary
>>746055553It has the pointer but you have to do a shitty rat hunt and even then you can't equip it on all weapons
>>746055219Every single cutscene was directed better in the OG as well. Characterization as well - Krauser was ruined.
When it comes down to it any remake is "doing an impression" and will always be lesser.
>>746055061because it was a pre-Trump world where everything was better
>>746058750>Pre-Trump was better>Obama deliberately fanning flames of racial tension to keep himself in powerPor Que?
>>746055061Fun game: Go into OG RE4 threads and ask them to defend QTEs and watch them explain how they were actually always based.
>>746058605Not necessarily.The Resident Evil 2 Remake was well received because it was different enough to be its own thing and it was fun.However, that begs the question: If it's a completely different game then why make it a remake instead of a new IP?You can't win, remakes are gay.
>>746058910everything has gotten noticeably worse since the orange man tho
>>746058910King O is a raging faggot, hence he wants to fuck and be fucked
>>746059297The same can be said when Obama came into power. And Bush before him. Basically everything after Clinton entering the Oval Office it has been sliding downhill. It was just so good in the 90s that it took a while for anyone to notice.
>>746055061False premise. The first game is not objectively superior to the remake. You're just repeating words you don't understand like an answering machine.
Because life back then was better as an Amerifat.
>>746055061I fucking hate how nu-Leon looks. He looks like a bad fan mod for RE4 that advertises itself on being more realistic.
RE4 ruined RE and RE4 redeemed it the game. Cope.
>>746055061Og came out in the past, and games were better back then.
so.. I don't really have any horse in this original vs remake race but I played 7 and 8 before the 4 remake and let's just say I'm pretty disappointedis it normal to be thrown in an arena and just fumbling around getting gang raped until you figured THE WAY to juke 8 zombies/villagers in a row without dying? it feels so much like actionslop the game is really pissing me offi'm at the castle and I just beat the armor ogre that throws rocks and stuff
>>746059235RE2R was the same game but in 3D with playable controls
>>746055061Leon is hotter in it and also more fun.

>>746063089We're at a point where OGfags will defend the bulldozer section.
>>746055061The characters are superior in 2005.
>>746055061No reticle focusing in the original, more flavour text, less handholding for everything, Leon doesn't have a bunch of inertia in all of his movements, the merchant doesn't say his lines rapid fire one after another when you speak to him, the menus and files have unique graphics that fit the mood rather than just being generic modern UI stuff, voices are better, Saddler's characterization as a cult leader hellbent on getting power and money are more compelling than crazy guy who drinks his own koolaid, bosses talk constantly in the remake, pointless crafting system isn't in the original. There are more but like why even say any of this because 200,000 anons have said the same things in the past.

>>746055061>Original games: Honest urgency to make the game the way the developers could taking their time with its nooks and crannies>Remake game: Tried to replicate every achievement the original game had in every level (visuals, gameplay, audio, artstyle) trying to capitalize on the name, removing and changing parts of it and making the mistake of trying to appeal to hiperrealism visually instead its own distinctive look as the original hadIt was that simple.
>no censorship>you can't compare it to re3.5 since you dont have a version of re3.5 so no removed content>shit redesigns>shit fights>i dont remember what else
>>746055374>4R is still fun but it should've been a new game, not a remake.That's basically what every remake should be since 2015 or so
>>746055061without involving politics. RE 4 turned the genre into generic shooter and completely removed the horror or survival element of these games and basically made you a LE CHOSEN ONE! YOU ARE LE CHOSEN TO SAVE LE WORLD OMG
Its insane how nobody can actually prove the original is better than the remake when the gameplay of the original wasn't even that good a decade ago because we already had RE5 to improve on it.
>>746064570>the gameplay of the original wasn't even that good a decade ago because we already had RE5 to improve on it
I liked RE4 remake but the original is the original my nigga, pretty easy
>>746064750>>746064832No, headshot/melee/knife/repeat isn't fun.
>>746064956>headshot/melee/knife/repeat isn't fun.>not shooting at their knees for suplex memes or landmines for BOOMThe absolute state of RE4makelets. Luckily for you the game also have enemies wearing helmets so not headshots for you, casual
>>746055061original doesn't have separate ways as dlc
>>746065363See, RE5 gave me the headstomp so I can play more efficiently than I ever could in RE4. The devs who directed 5 realized they were cooking with fire and added it to RE4R, making it leaner and more efficient than the original.
>>746065495>RE5 gave me the headstomp so I can play more efficiently than I ever could in RE4No, shot/melee/repeat isn't fun.
