Strangely, this doesn't look anywhere near as good as RE2 or RE3 to me.

Not even really close, huh?
We got the Capcom C-Team on the most beloved entry in the series for some reason.

 

[consoul]

Blame it on the rain yeah yeah

 

[demigod]

Please let me play the entire thing in VR on day 1

I will buy psvr2 if this happens

 

[angrod14]

Less than two months away from launch and this is how Capcom decides to market the game? Shitty footage and crumbs from Game Informer?

What a joke.

 

[MiguelItUp]

This looks amazing. But a lot of this doesn't look final.

Don't underestimate the Resident Evil 2 Remake team.

 

[angrod14]

Grove Street Games Approved.

 

[cortadew]

So they made Ashley a grown woman instead of a kid, wasn't she the president's daughter? Always thought it was weird the president just didn't send in the entire us army to get her.

OG Ashley was a 20 yo college student

 

[cortadew]

those rain effects lmao.

and why does Ashley look like she wants to blow me?

Did you even understand what "overtime" means?

 

[cortadew]

Strangely, this doesn't look anywhere near as good as RE2 or RE3 to me.

Jill mommy Valentine is so hot there

 

[Ristifer]

I can't believe some people are actually undiscerning slobs who will gobble up anything given to them.

You have a seriously weird hatred for this remake. Just don’t play it lol.

 

[lachesis]

Well, I think it's time for me to do the media black-out for this game. So very excited for this game!

 

[SlimySnake]

The rain looks absolutely atrocious. Cant believe an AAA art director approved this. Is this made by the B team?

This is what rain looked like in games 7 years ago. I swear after Dead Space, Gotham knights and Forspoken, we are actually producing worse graphics than we did in 2015-2016.

 

[Gorgyles]

SlimySnake To be fair, you posted by edit of RE4 gamecube
made to look like RE4 remake

here is the clip of the remake's atrocious rain

ah ok. my mistake. still doesnt look great lmao.

 

[Gorgyles]

No it doesnt
The more I look, the more it seems like some rain overlay
unchanged by light sources or the character's movement

 

[Imtjnotu]

Leon looks like a kpop singer...

[Nickolaidas]

It looks ugly an amateurish compared to the atmospheric original

I can't believe some people are actually undiscerning slobs who will gobble up anything given to them.

 

[Bakkus]

Isn't Ashley 14? Why does she look 30?

 

[pachibear]

Super disappointing trailer. Personalty & Atmosphere: Zero

 

[ResurrectedContrarian]

The biggest question is if i’ll be able to look up Ashley’s skirt.

I'm sure modders will fill in the black void if necessary

 

[{insert code here}]

Looking great, what's the RE3R team working on? Dino Crisis R!?

 

[OCASM]

It looks ugly an amateurish compared to the atmospheric original

Yep. Did they hire Bluepoint Games to make it?

The original game is much more atmospheric:

 

[solidus12]

I need Ashley's Ballistics

 

[Efren is G.O.A.T.]

They're saying everything I want to hear.

 

[RaduN]

I do not like the new Ashley's overall look.
She looks way older and less playful than the original one.
Leon also looks a bit less classy in his movements, and ironically, a few years younger than the original.

Other than that, it looks amazing for a cross gen title.

 

[Robb]

Looking good!

 

[Ozriel]

I can’t believe people actually complaining about the graphics, to me it looks phenomenal.

The visuals look very good overall, but that clip with the rain effects does not impress at all

 

[TheUndeadGamer]

Ashley looks great

Yeah she really does….

 

[MacReady13]

It has the potential to be the best Resident Evil game ever.

The original Resident Evil 4 is already not only the best Resi game ever but the best game ever made! This only need to meet that standard to become the new GOAT!!!

 

[VeganElduderino]

Super disappointing trailer. Personalty & Atmosphere: Zero

hahaha wtf ? point me the direction that disappointing trailer is.

 

[VeganElduderino]

The original Resident Evil 4 is already not only the best Resi game ever but the best game ever made! This only need to meet that standard to become the new GOAT!!!

re1 remake and re2 remake are better , but yet that's just like my opinion ,man!

 

[ResurrectedContrarian]

Reminds me to finish the Quest2 VR port, which was very good--basically the best way to experience the original game world with perfectly faithful graphics.

 

[Shakka43]

Ashley looks fine as hell here.

The gameplay from what they have shown so far looks a little janky and that rain is GTA trilogy DE bad. Hopefully they fix these issues before release.

 

[Quezacolt]

So they made Ashley a grown woman instead of a kid, wasn't she the president's daughter? Always thought it was weird the president just didn't send in the entire us army to get her.

Even in the OG, she was in her early 20's

 

[Sw0pDiller]

Oh my.... That's another 70 euro gone this year.

 

[Nickolaidas]

Yep. Did they hire Bluepoint Games to make it?

The original game is much more atmospheric:

Ah. Yes, the good ol' PS2 'everything's-brown-like-shit' era. How I've missed it.

Nostalgia goggles, am I right?

 

[OCASM]

Ah. Yes, the good ol' PS2 'everything's-brown-like-shit' era. How I've missed it.

Nostalgia goggles, am I right?

Yes, that's the only difference.

No wonder you think the remake looks good

 

[R6Rider]

First thing I noticed is that terrible rain, otherwise looks good overall.

 

[SCB3]

So they made Ashley a grown woman instead of a kid, wasn't she the president's daughter? Always thought it was weird the president just didn't send in the entire us army to get her.

Shes supposed to be 19-20 ish, she looked too young in the originals imo, this is perfect

Also, is Leon not wearing his Jacket at all in this? I don't think I've seen a single screenshot of him in it

 

[FunkMiller]

This is cross gen, right? Because it sure as hell doesn’t look made for current gen consoles.

 

[Signal Rockets]

Most excellent news.

I never really liked the QTE parts anyway. Also, I am not against enemies no longer dropping ammo in place of now using mixing powders. It was a hell of a dumb idea to begin with, because a lot of the enemies were either non human, or not carrying firearms. So them having bullets and other things, was hardly realistic.

 

[shiru]

Looks so damn garish. I hate the lighting & color grading. That rain effect is so bad it looks cartoony, worse than in the original, which also had a much better atmosphere. Ashley looks way older than she supposed to be.

hurr not realistic

Nobody gives a shit.

 

[Johnny Concrete]

Death to QTE's!

Kinda agree with the rough looking screenshots and lack of shadow casting.

Where are the shadows on these characters?

 

[DenchDeckard]

What a birthday present! Thank you capcom!

2023 is going to be a banger.

 

[angelgs90]

Do we know if runs at 60fps on the base PS4?

 

[VeganElduderino]

That's the only part i was like this looks like ps4 worthy!

 

[RaduN]

Most likely not

 

[Vick]

The new clips don't inspire me much, to be honest.
What is illuminating the rain? Why are the drops so big?
Why don't the flashes of lightning cast dramatic shadows?



There's a huge disconnect for me here.
It looks wrong and off.

Gun to my head I'd say it's because there's not a Capcom A-Team lead by Mikami working on it.
Artists who might care about mood and atmosphere and would shitcan giant cumdrop raindrops covering the screen.

This was such an interesting and dramatic moment in the original and that vibe is gone.

I agree.
Resident Evil 4 is my most replayed game of all time. I've played every version ever released (favorite GameCube) and spent close to ten years on Re4 HD Project week after week providing feedback and analyzing every inch of the game.

I also consider the Village section and part of the Castle, in terms of mood and artistic design, among the very best things ever made, actually.
There was no way in hell for this Remake to satisfy me entirely so I am only going to treat this as a companion piece and that only.. yet that night clip was really worse than I expected.

Strangely, this doesn't look anywhere near as good as RE2 or RE3 to me.

If you played RE3E like that, you fucked up man.

This is what rain looked like in games 7 years ago. I swear after Dead Space, Gotham knights and Forspoken, we are actually producing worse graphics than we did in 2015-2016.

That particular section always reminded me of RE4.. looked and still does look legit insane.

Yep. Did they hire Bluepoint Games to make it?

A Bluepoint RE4 Remake, with gameplay intact?

I'd legit pay $1000 for it. Demon's Souls looked made by Capcom Studio 4 and Studio 3 between Remake and RE0 pre-rendered backgrounds production.

Leon also looks a bit less classy in his movements.

This actually is a thing. I agree.

Also, is Leon not wearing his Jacket at all in this? I don't think I've seen a single screenshot of him in it

He certainly is. Plenty of pictures/videos with jacket on.

 

[deriks]

This is the game where they should have gone in and changed a few things around vs RE2/3. Those games should have remained as-is. The merchant needs to go!

You need to go
