We abandoned this one back in March, and only came back this month after receiving a new video card. It still feels lacking compared to the original: the treasure hunt excursions, side quests and brand-new segments take an already-bloated game (let's be real, OG RE4 was always a little too long) and stretch it to its breaking point. But treated as its own thing, there's at least some merit to what they've built here. Like the other Resident Evil remakes, it's a devilishly fun rollercoaster ride: it's just outshined by REMake 2 and 3 (not to mention the original RE4).
