"Little rough, don't you think?"
This game tries to be many things, but it certainly does not feel like a Resident Evil title; unless of course you think the series should feel like a wacky big blockbuster treasure hunting adventure. RE4 had gone through a couple iterations in the 6 years it was in development, starting off as one project that then eventually became Devil May Cry. It seems every game in development during this time had a similar feel to it.
I played this after playing 1 through 3, and I legit almost dropped it. Starting off the game in a palette of brown was insulting to look at; the dialogue took me out of the scenario I found myself in; and the core gameplay loop did not click with me; however, I did enjoy seeing Ashley cheer me on as I shot at infected Europeans.
Resident Evil 4 and its consequences have been a disaster for the Resident Evil series and Capcom.
