aside from the og, these re remakes were a mistake

I'm more puzzled how a RE5 remake will look like.

worse than the original, if you can believe it.

I don't understand what point this video is trying to make. Yeah there should be more ambient noises and music in the background in RE4 remake. Outside of that I didn't find it to be 'soulless' whatever they're trying to mean by that.

to show all the ways in which the original is superior, including the atmosphere, artwork, cutscene direction, environments, music, sound design, writing, voice acting, and overall attention to detail. even the rain is somehow better in the original despite being 18 years old.

Not really. How exactly would you want the environments to look? Should they just ditch modern visuals and rendering techniques and make the lighting in every environment washed out and flat like in the original? Is that what superior art is?

 

Ada's voice acting is one of the few things thats objectively worse. Maybe the sound mixing/design as well, its a bit too muted compared to the original. Most other things are the same if not improved.

We have a word for games like this, we call it "Xbox'd". Dumbed down for people like Ghostz.

the only obvious thing that I notice the original does better is the lightning effect at night near the church.

 

It looks fantastic on RE4, quite frankly it still the best example of seeing lightning flashing at night outside of RDR2.  The timing of the flashes is so good, and it illuminates the trees in a very believable manner.

Yes the gamecube orginal was a masterpiece.  Every other version is soulless.

To be fair a lot of lighting this time around is designed around Leon having a flashlight. But that video does show that some rooms were poorly converted.

21 seconds taken from a 37 minute video that shows the remake has worse rain than the 18 year old original?

Outside of clearly not being the same hallway, anybody that's played the remake knows there's multiple hallways with armor/Armadura lining it.

[Twinblade★ 3,998]

The remake is definitely way too dark at times, ill admit that. I think its HDR implementation is a big part of that.

 

Its also a bit lame that the flashlight is context sensitive so you can't really just pull it out at any time.

I prefer the design and voice acting for the midget in the remake.

Next you're gonna say you prefer Ada's voice acting.

Anyways, thanks for re-confirming for us that the Gamecube version of RE4 is still really great. Even though this guy just got busted for jumping the shark with clickbait.
