Wow. Just... Wow.
I won't even try to write a detailed review. RE4 is one of the most important games in my life, I can't even TRY to sound smart.
All I'll say is, it's really good, and yet it doesn't make the original obsolete. OG RE4 is still snappier, with action on all fronts. RE4R has a lot more quiet time, and thanks to the sidequest system, you really get to explore and take in all the areas little by little. The action IS still there, and it is great, but there's now more to do between sessions of mowing down villagers left and right.
The original was my favorite RE, one of my favorite games ever, and now the remake is not only my favorite Resi remake, but my favorite remake ever. Bravo, Capcom.
