Because RE4 prints money, Capcom likes money, and because "everybody loves RE4!".
Fine by me, and I am all the more for it. I don't hate the original RE4, but I do not have the patience anymore for it. Been that way for a long time. I know you are mad about CV not getting a remake, and is understandable, but this is Capcom. Nothing should be surprising at this point.
That is so fucked up. I do not blame you on waiting for a deep, deep sale.
I'm not saying Leon has a Bieber haircut. I'm saying the person on the right side of that thumbnail has the same hair as every stock photo of a woman on r/entitledpeople. Leon on the left still looks like Leon should.
The Bieber part wasn't directed at you, but at those who said Leon looked like Bieber back when RE2Remake was first revealed. A good amount of them weren't joking.
I never had anything against people with mullets, but I do know that hair style is hard to maintain. Second, Hard Target is still amazing, and Van Damme knew how to rock that hairstyle for one film!
Yeah Leon was a lot of things in the first one, "likeable" wasn't one of them. He was an obnoxious, horny, wet-behind-the-ears idiot loser who stumbled his way to not being dead.
She doesn't though. Unless you actively make her wait Ashley's pretty much attached to your back, staying out of harm's way. And the only time she gets hurt is if you allow enemies to get close enough to hurt Leon. She's the one A.I. companion that feels mechanically efficient while still being vulnerable to enemies, unlike the ones today that are immune to anything that can kill the player.
I still don't like the constant calling of "LeON!" when it happens or goes on. You still have a point Shinji, but I like to see where the remake will improve unpon this.
The thing is, I don't think I've ever heard her calling like that except for that one time on the island where you hear her calling out over the security monitors. I mean, first time playing I was distraught when I realized I had to escort this girl around, but as soon as I aimed my gun and saw she would just hide behind my back I was like 'oh shit, that's brilliant; I can just keep her with me and pretty much play the game as if she wasn't even there'.
I agree, her staying behind Leon did help. My problem was that with the game featuring tank control, whenever I wanted to aim behind me she'd still be there. Of course she ducked, but there were moments when the enemies were too close and I risked injuring her. I also remember trying to reposition with her, and I'd get either cornered or the enemies grab ashley while I try to run pass them. When she got captured, depending on how far she was away from me I could again risk injuring her. Those dumpsters did help, but they were only in the village section.
To be fair, whatever (mechanical) issues I had with Ashley vaporized after the first couple of playthroughs, when I figured out the best choke points in each area. There's a lot of exploitative designs to the levels.
Couldn't you usually just have her hide in a dumpster or some other place relatively out of the way?
Or dump them in a woodchipper, throw the woodchipper into a landfill, fire the landfill into the Sun and then drop the Sun into a dumpster.
I swear those were only found in eariler village levels
Too bad; Capcom decided years ago to remake the game.
Keep it to simple action commands when being grabbed or meleeing a stunned ganado.
Both versions acknowledged what happened in the PS1 trilogy, so little will change. Wesker will still be there in background plotting like usual. Ada is there too.
Meh.
I guess you didn't see the you can repair and upgrade your knife menu at the merchant shop in the presentation.
I welcome the change or doing something different. Blind nostalgia can be a big biatch.
Agreed.
It's good, but hasn't aged well with certain controls.
There are dumpsters you can use in the section with the Bella sisters (midway through the village) and also at the island during the Regenerator section down the garbage chute. I don't remember if there are dumpsters in the castle area but the game will automatically bar Ashley from entering certain gauntlets (the lava bit) or you're generally allowed to do it yourself (the first fight with Garrador, the fight with the possessed armors).
I think Steam's a bit more fair - there's the exchange rate to consider, but I don't think Steam is really overpriced, at least in my experience. But the thing is, I don't really use Steam that much, and most of what I have on Steam is stuff I've got for near-free off Humble Bundle. But I think the price difference of RE4 between Steam and physical says a lot.
