>set in 2004 Spain>looks like fucking 1904 SpainI'm all for suspension of disbelief and all that, but sometimes the retardation is too big.
>>12496967You have never been to 1904 Spain
>>12496967ackssually it's set in 1998
>>12496978No that's RE1,2 and 3
>>>/trash/
It's an isolated rural village, and the virus made them live as if they were medieval peasants.
>>12496967What's up with that screenshot? Did I miss AMD's answer to DLSS5?
>>12496967Hey what game is this
Piss filter
>re4slop/vr/ is bigger zoomers than /v/ now, need to change the board name
>>12496967You've clearly never stepped foot in a European rural area during the 2000s. They all looked ancient and primitive as hell.
>>12497005Pretty sure it's Resident Evil 4. One of my favorite streamers called it one of the greatest games ever made so it must be so. I'll get around to playing it but watching a playthrough with his hilarious commentary is great enough!
>>12497050I'm from rural spain, it doesn't look like thatEven on small village you have paved road and people don't dress like that
>>12497054>playthrough with hilarious commentary link?
>>12497071Is it true that the basque region is more barbarous than the rest of Spain
>>12497079Maybe, i'm from andalusia and even the landscape doesn't look at all like RE4
>>12496967
>>12497090>RE4 doesn't take place in spain,but we used spanish anyway That's the dumbest shit i have ever heardWhere else in europe do people speak spanish?Why are the spanish cops if it's not in spain?
>>12497114video games aren't actually realzombies aren't real, and organisms can't grow into giant monsters in seconds while consuming nothing in the processa Spanish strangereal seems minor in comparison hope this helps
>>12496967It's just your typical japanese racismYou know how a lot of japanese works feature a church of some kind that uses the aesthetics of catholic christianity but has nothing else in common with it? That's not just limited to religions, they do that with all and any foreign concepts including entire nations
>>12496971It was pretty sweet, back before we were overrun with africans and southamericans...
>>12497134none of that is racist you dipshit, it's ignorance at worstJaps just think Christian iconography is cooljust like weebs think everything from Nihon is sugoi and kawaiiNot to say they aren't xenophobic, because they often arebut RE4 was originally supposed to be some sorta supernatural adventure, and the DNA of that remained after they revamped the game
Having been to Galicia it really just does look like that.
>>12496967I wouldn't be surprised if they drew inspiration from the "Las Hurdes: Tierra Sin Pan" documentary.https://youtu.be/qO86FO1bs6g
>>12497114>Where else in europe do people speak spanish?amerimutt detected, you never heard of a country named Andorra huh?
So what's up with osmund sadler having some kind of germanic name and an ambiguous euro accent thats definitely not spanish
>>12497163i personally thought RE4 took place in France or northern Italy, the village does not look Spanish at allthe castle... well maybe keep in mind Spain monarchies were foreign in origin (Germans and shit) it makes sense for their castles to look like thatthe island? yeah that place does look like Spain
>>12497179You’re thinking of Angola and that’s in Africa (where your people hail from)
>>12497197Angola speaks Moortuguese you idiot
>>12497201I just checked and you’re wrong
>>12497141it was such a shithole spaniards were leaving TO southamerica
>>12497146Nah, they think because Europe isn't hyper-centralized like Japan, that entire regions still live like in the fucking middle ages.Even the most isolated regions still have cars and paved roads and whatever. The village in RE4 looks like it was frozen in 1900 or some shit, when some regions still didn't experience the industrial revolution.
Everyone here is arguing about dumb stuff like "Oh is it believable that x y z" when the entire point is that they wanted the exact opposite vibe that RE had until that point. Tight indoor modern settings and urban situations (whether it's city streets, mansions, prisons, or laboratories) were to give way to open-air rural villages and spacious castles. Even the base in the final acts is significantly more dilapidated and old-fashioned compared to what was seen in previous games.They just wanted a vibe change, that's all.
>>12496967That's because RE4 was meant to be another game entirely. It's just a reskin with two RE characters(Leon & Ada) in it. So yeah, RE4 seems very out of place. Also the ugly brown shit color makes RE4 unpleasant to look at compared to previous games. Even the midget looks out of place, since he's in 1700's attire.
>>12497373I agree but it's deeper than that. Changing the camera to over shoulder makes it harder to navigate tight interiors. It's definitely deliberate that you see more of those interiors as the game goes on.The game is more concerned about setting up interesting fights than navigation puzzles, which was never the case in 1 or 2. An open play field lets you fit in larger crowds with more enemy diversity. Even if some of the rooms are glorified hallways (chainsaw ladies, castle maze), there's still a respect for verticality and the player's perspective.
>>12497179>hey, look at my minor principality of 90,000 people with an area six times smaller than NYC's. That'll show those uncultured New Worlders!
>>12497003it's just sharpened to hell
>>12497208kala bóka, bô sta fazi burrera
>>12496967I mean the amish exist. they keep light farm work and domestic labor traditional but they utilize industrial equipment for heavier tasks. that's basically what we see with re4. they're a weird secluded cult financed by an old money family, not that crazy.
Much of rural Spain is virtually untouched from a century ago tbg.
see you mutts at the bump limit. keep embarrassing yourselves until you die serving israel
The only good Resident Evil game
>>12497114>Where else in europe do people speak spanish?Gibraltar
Even outside of la plaga, they're supposed to be backward countryfolk that serve as a stark contrast to the well-groomed and modern Leon, Ada, and Ashley. If the enemy with a chainsaw weren't enough of a clue, they were clearly going for the same vibe as Texas Chainsaw Massacre or The Hills Have Eyes, which have a similar dichotomy. It isn't supposed to be realistic, it's just supposed to emphasize the feeling of being an unwanted outsider in a hostile area.
>>12497356>Even the most isolated regions still have cars and paved roads and whatever.Have you even played the game? They literally do have trucks and roads, they just aren't paved. While now days this is less common the road my house was on back in 2004 was not paved yet (they did this around 2007).While it has been a while since I've read all the documents I believe the plagas took over in the 90's for the villagers essentially freezing them in time. The villagers were also referred to as basically mountain Amish who were disconnected from the greater spainish culture until the 1500's when the Church sent the original Salazar down to make them good Christians and build a cool castle.The most unrealistic part of the game is the quarries and stuff but I guess since they are basically slaves that will never question or refuse to work Salazar and Saddler can have them do that shit.>>12497090Yeah nah the police are spainish as fuck and the Salazar family were part of the reconquista this, I understand most people never read the documents but they literally explain everything you want.
>>12497195>Spain monarchies were foreign in origin (Germans and shit)that was pretty much every european monarchy at some point in the past millienium
>>12498387I guess you're right
>>12497126Making a video game doesn't get you a license to be stupid.
>>12496967yeah there are villages in Galicia that look like this
>>12497114>That's the dumbest shit i have ever heardIn Resident Evil they speak English but oh wow the games don't take place in England thay's so dumbFucking retard.
>>12497010The r in /vr/ stands for resident evil
