Has RE4 lost it's charm for anyone else?

[J_Man757]

It has not lost its charm for me eaither, I still play it a good amount.

The castle is definitely a chore to play after your first play through but I still consider RE0 and CV:X to be much more of a chore than 4.

I still enjoy playing all the locations of the game almost at the same level of fun

I'm not trying to change anyone's opinions. I'm just really tired of all the RE4 bitching threads. I debated even coming into this thread, because I knew it would be like this. I guess I'm just a glutton for punishment.

I didn't really mean for it to be a bashing thread, but hey, I guess it was from the beginning. Sorry.

I might be alone but I find that line to be really badass and it always gives me chills.

When I first got the game, I loved it. Don't get me wrong, I love (and prefer) how 0-CVX played, but when I first played RE4 it was a refreshing change. All the way through my first playthrough I loved the game and I thought it was one of the best Resident Evils yet. But then on subsequent playthroughs, it just became a chore to play. I missed the older games and how they played and RE4 was just missing something for me.

I'm playing through it now and it's getting to the point where I'm actually sighing when I realise what I have to do now. The whole game gets very....tiring after the Village, which is the only part of the game I truly still enjoy. I hate the Castle section and the Island is only a slight improvement.

I guess this all comes off as a Resident Evil 4 sucks thread, but there are things about it I like....none spring to mind right now but there is something that keeps making me play it again, even if it feels like a chore.

Does anyone else feel the same way?

Nah, absolutly loved the game since i first got it, and i always will, its a peice of gaming art to me, the way everythings modeled and textured is mind blowng. Leons character is more professional and kick ass (in my opinion) they actualy gave him more of a personality than in RE2. Its a great game to look at and play for any 3D artist/programmer.
I have played all RE games and have been playing it since i was quite young, and in my opinion RE4 blew all the other games away...until RE5 comes out that is.
To make comparisons to the other RE games for the RE4 bashers...Lord Saddler/salazar and so on maybe one time bad guys, but they are not much different than say...nicholi, he has only starred in one game andis not a main character (he isnt working behind the scenes or anything else like that). Ive read that some say RE4 is repetitive...all RE games are repetative, in every RE game your solving a puzzle or looking for keys and that takes a lot of back tracking. Ashely...sure, you hve to look after her and sometimes its hard looking out for yourself and Ashley but shes no better than sherry really. To me Sherry is not a main character and wont be returning, i will say the same about Ashley. This is my opinion of course and i dont mean to start any arguments.

Agree with Andyfer Ruu, side not alot of people of people who I see knock Leon also go as far as to say Degeneration is not canon'.

Does anyone else feel that way?

Yeah, i forgot to mention about degen not being cannon.

[J_Man757]

....You do know its canon, right.

[Bertha]

Why would Degen not be canon?

[Mr. Kennedy]

Degen is canon, in fact, it played right into the plot of RE5.

[Vector]

Haven't you guys heard? Degeneration is NOT canon.

The canon movie, in fact, is actually Resident Evil Apocalypse.

"Splendid timing! Yous two are just in time for the fireworks show! BOOOOM!"

Haha, I don't think that counts as a cheesy line--Arvine seems pretty unstable as a character judging from that and the first TGS trailer. Heh, fits his personality just fine from what little there is to gather(still haven't watched the last trailer they released, and dont' want too. Watching Super Wesker dodge Chris's handgun him over and over again never gets old. Time to DIE CHRRISS. lol)

Now if Wesker or Excella were too do something that animated. . .eh, cheese indeed. Bring on the over-the-top Richard Waugh laugh from Code Veronica and we're back to the glory days of Capcom and one-dimensional characters in RE. lol. (I suppose RE4 might fall into some of that category ironically)

[valentinesdead?]

I might be alone but I find that line to be really badass and it alwasy gives me chills.

Me too. Along with the high-pitched cackling, lol.
