RE has always been a good series but RE4 made it a great series. Took it to the next level. Gave it the action of what a real horror would be like and made it more epic. I think it's the best thing to ever happen to it. Sure because it was more focused on action rather than investigation you lost some of the scary parts, but I think it made the series a hell of a lot better. Gave it the depth it needed. It expanded on what a survival horror could be and that's a good thing. |
RE4 expanded the userbase. Don't get me wrong, Resident Evil 4 was an excellent game. But it when I played Resident Evil Remake, I realized that true survival horror was. The lack of ammo, horrible camera angles, terrible controls, etc. That made REmake an amazing game. The setting was amazing aswell. When I went to the laboratoy outside the Mansion, I was so scared.
Resident Evil 4 didn't scare me one bit. It made the zombies more of an obstacle, not a challenge. One shot in the leg and one shot in the head, bam, they're dead. In REmake, You'd either have to run or waste many bullets on them.
