    Replaying 4 and then playing 5 for the first time was not a great way to experience the game. Even disregarding all the sacrifices in gameplay they made to fit online co-op, the tone and story were boring garbage, whereas Resident Evil 4 is absolute schlocky perfection, every single line of dialogue in that game is just deliciously and camera winkingly terrible in the right way

    Wesker was fun, I guess, but not even DC Douglas hamming it up to the nines could save that game

        To be fair, at that point in time they wouldn't have really been returning to survival horror as that's what all the games had been up to that point (disregarding spinoffs)

        I'm just going to assume that version the game just straight up didn't work considering the two games it ended up spawning went in very different directions. RE7 was probably the best return to survival horror one could've asked for

          I usually try to temper expectations on video games, especially "AAA" titles, but I'd be lying if I said I'm not starting to get hype for Village

            Yeah, while I personally prefer the old school survival horror Resident Evils, I also really love Resident Evil 4, it's a great game in its own right. I really can't begrudge them for switching up the formula either- Resident Evil Zero really feels like they're scraping the very bottom of the barrel (Still an ok game though, and the HD rerelease looks great)
