How Resident Evil 4 Could Benefit From A Remake

From WarhammerWorkshop


Of course, while finally revisiting Jill Valentine, Carlos Oliveria, and the utterly horrifying Nemesis is the next big experience for the franchise, it is worth wondering where Resident Evil's newfound enthusiasm with revisiting its roots will lead following the remake's release. While many fans are naturally hoping Capcom might return to the likes of Code Veronica or even the first game in the series, it's also worth considering whether the third game's groundbreaking sequel, Resident Evil 4 , would - or more importantly even should - receive a full remake in the same vein as Resident Evil 2 an


The fourth game is, after all, a staple of video game history. When it dropped back in 2005, it forever changing the landscape Breath of the Wild companion app survival horror and launched Resident Evil into the stratosphere, carving out the franchise's unwavering spot as one of the most important IP's in the history of the medium. In many ways, Resident Evil 4 is one of the core reasons that the series is still relevant enough to release AAA blockbuster remakes of its earlier games and have them sell like wildfire. In that regard, why isn't the game already in line for a glitzy, HD reimagining with the budget to match its transcendent leg


The negative effects of the virus can be seen much more clearly on the original design, as almost the entire upper half of the monster is covered in mutant growths. In size the two seem to be mostly the same, although it is somewhat difficult to gauge due to the different angles of the two. Although the creature features much more reptilian skin now, a more unexpected change comes in the form of an additional claw. The original appears to have only four claws while the new one has five like a human, as if it needed more ways to shred through play


An update one should certainly expect from a Resident Evil 4 remake is the refinement of the mobility and aiming mechanics. Resident Evil stuck with the tank-controls aiming technique for the longest time, but eventually evolved to allow for more freedom of movement without sacrificing the series' evocative feeling of vulnerability. Resident Evil 2 Remake is a prime example of this , eschewing the stationary aiming design and allowing players to reposition ever so slowly. But on the flipside of this, the remake should be careful not to slip too far from the original game's constraints. Resident Evil 4 's weapon aiming had realistic weapon shake where every slight adjustment required the upmost precision. A Resident Evil 4 remake shouldn't lose that aspect of its tactical gameplay, but should at least allow for more mobility in com


There will also be multiple routes that Jill can take to reach her objective, which will give players a chance to strategize which path would be the safest to take, especially when Nemesis can just pop in at any moment. Moreover, the city will remain recognizable to fans but will obviously be richer in detail and will employ a faithful '90s aesthe


Code: Veronica originally released on the Sega Dreamcast in February 2000. This game is about five years older than RE4 which shows with the game's much more dated graphics. Meanwhile, RE4 has gotten remaster after remaster since its 2005 release. At the same time, Code: Veronica hasn't seen any graphical improvements since the HD re-release in 2


If Capcom wants to get to the root of what initially made the RE series special, they should stick along the survival horror route. The recent remake of Resident Evil 3 already brings fans into a horror/action-adventure hybrid. With a RE4 remake, Capcom would be venturing even further away from the survival horror set


Compared to dodging in the original Resident Evil 3 , this should be a cakewalk. That said, there is no denying that the timing for a perfect dodge is pretty tight, and since every enemy has a unique dodge window, it certainly won't come easy. Still, practicing against enemies will see players get better at the technique rather swiftly, and it really will make a difference in gameplay moving forw
