      The point is that you shouldn't have to pay extra money for things that should be in the game. Even with the classic soundtrack many tracks are missing and serenity still doesn't play unless you're actually in the merchants menu. It used to be so calming in og having that track play when you're near the merchant. Hopefully they fix it with a patch.

      That's what government agencies like the CIA or the secret services train your mindset to be, that's why og Leon is more accurate than the broody PTSD remake Leon. It is not that og Leon has not PTSD he was simply trained to hide it deep inside of him to be focused on his missions. He uses humor as a coping mechanism to not get overwhelmed just so he can continue to have everything under control. That's why he often allows himself to chill and joke with the villains, cause he knows that if he pisses them off, they'll eventually make mistakes, making his mission easier. And that's why in the og Ada calls Leon a genius

The only competition this remake has is Dead Space Remake, Baldurs Gate 3 and Elden Ring which are good games but not as good as the ones from 2004, 2005.

The original was fun and charming, but much like most games of that era, it was goofy, and the videogame medium is trying to move forward with its quality of writing/acting/cinematography/etc. During the PS2/Gamecube/Xbox era, developers were walking into uncharted territory and they were clearly winging it.....Take Kojima for example. You can clearly see the growth he's gone through since his first MGS on PS1. He learned a lot throughout his journey and it shows....Remakes are supposed to be a refinement of the original, we can't expect them to retain the same corniness that was due to inexperience, no matter how fond of it we are!

      RE4 never was "making fun of RE"?? Capcom wanted something new for the series that's why it went the direction it went 💀 they fucking remade RE1 and made RE0 2 years prior for how good the games were and how well they were appreciated. Also RE4's departure from horror caused the downfall of the series as a whole, cause even if it worked for 4 itself, 5 and 6 weren't as good and most ppl consider them trash. But why am i even trying when one of your arguments was "women have clothes and ashley no waifu ☹️"

      What makes a great survival horror game is its sound design, atmosphere, tension and attention to detail. Its like what the dead space director Glen Schofield said about dead space, It has more impact. The cutscene and facial animations were much better in the original. That is one of the things that makes the remake soulless. The cutscenes and facial animations even the choreography was better in the original. Voice acting is great overall in both games, except Ada’s Voice Actor is horrible for anyone who has acting experience they would know.

    I love how in RE, they use music to make the player feel a sense of relief and safety. Just hearing the safe room music makes you feel a massive sense of assurance. It gets imprinted onto the player throughout the game because you go from high stress situations to suddenly being safe from all the danger. In RE4 the music when you approach the merchant area 5:16 becomes a kind of therapy. When you hear that music you know you can take a breather, upgrade yourself to be stronger, take some time to construct your jewels and use your money in safety. Ever since RE1, safe room music is an iconic part of the RE experience.

      And yet after escaping absolute hell, you find it. A safe room. Not only granting you safety from the monsters outside, but also giving you supplies. All of it accompanied by one of the best safe room themes in the franchise. A calm, relaxing and yet saddening melody. Assuring you of your safety, but also reminding you of how hopeless the situation seems.
      You are safe...

      that's because they are. what you are saying is objective and no just some opinion. all art direction was designed to cater to smaller hardcore playerbases so there was never a true need for "minimalism"/blandness. all of this bland, modern, minimalistic UIs we see in games nowadays are designed to appeal to the new type of customer that has entered the fray: the average joe consumer who has a house, kids, and a job. they make lots of money 🤑🤑🤑 but have soo little time ☹. welp, as a consequence for gaming becoming too popular and mainstream all of these devs now cater to the average joe. now every game is just meh, average, stale, bland BECAUSE the average joe is... average. if you add more flare... oh no... that = more COMPLEX, and we no like complexity anymore since that might confuse our new better paying customers!!! that mean less $$$ in refvenue since average joe only wants simple games to play; he has no time to sit and learn complex mechanics or look at more stylized UI. stylized UI means more CONFUSION!!! we need """"visual clarity"""" ah yes yes. now let the money rack itself in 💰💸💰

      Look if u want to be a game dev, you gotta appreicate the remake it still has the same amount of detail if not more than the OG but with a sense of realism.
      Whether you like the OG better or not thats up to you.
      The game is scarier and thats what they were going for, they tweaked it by going for a more ominous feeling rather than creepiness, it feels like some sort of great evil has taken over the village. And it’s going to take mighty effort and complete faith in oneself to take it down or to just even survive this unholy cataclysm.
      Way more realism to its tone in order to creep you out more than the og did. ( also leon is a bad ass i never truly felt threatened in the OG except for bosses and some enemies like a regenerator.) Ganados are wayyy more relentless and terrifying now cinematically and mechanically.

    90s/00s games took inspiration from the cinematic and design trends at the time such as 90s games having that gritty film look and early 00s games having the blue filter with y2k futuristic ui aesthetics, since modern cinematic/art design is basically just minimalist desaturated netflixesque bs this is the end result, these people don't know how to create basic atmosphere ffs.
