nublood Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I thought she did alright. If you have a complaint, should probably criticize Capcom and not the individual. Tracking her down on social media is a pretty Karen thing to do. Some people literally never made the transition to just being an adjusted adult out of high school.

Bacon Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 I mean, the look of the new Ada blows the old one out of the water. Can't say I'm a fan of the voice but lol 1. I don't really care and 2. old Ada isn't particularly amazing. Not bad, but if there is any one voice actor I'd prefer it is the OG Leon just for his cheesy deliveries, tho the OG Leon would not match the new face at all. Best new VA by far is Ashley, but that is also due to how much I hated the old one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser_Soze Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Actually, when she does actually get captured by the bad guys her "Leon!" scream is actually kind of terrifying. Sounds like she was really going to die IRL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShreddieMercury Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Beat Hardcore mode finally after 22.5 hours. This is easily my favorite game from this "gen", or whatever you can call it at this point. Just phenomenal in every respect and I don't have any real criticism to offer. It took an all-time great game, made sensible and fun changes, and somehow made it even more replayable and dynamic. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShreddieMercury Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Did anybody start NG+? I'm debating whether to do that, or to just play it again fresh. I'm always sort of opposed to NG+ since I find the fun in a lot of these games to be the gradual progression of upgrading and buying new items. I started a fresh save but am having second thoughts about how to play through it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 A) Ada is hot as hell in this game B) I Personally thought her voice was sexy and unique. People are fucking pathetic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatoneshere Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 I'm just now getting into RE4R and I was curious so I checked Metacritic - this game is getting review bombed across all three platforms by users. Highest aggregate user score is a 6.8 for the PS5 version (4.4 for XBSX and 5.2 for PC) when critics across the board scored it a 91 (XBSX), 92 (PC), and 93 (PS5) across the three platforms? Is it just cause of the Ada Wong stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheLeon Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 Today is the first day I really got into this. I’m playing on hardcore, because that’s what it suggests if you’ve played the game before. But I don’t feel like my knowledge of prior iterations of this game is really helping me here. It’s not outrageously hard or anything, but it’s certainly a different feel from the RE4 I knew.

XxEvil AshxX Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 I do have to admit, I don't like the new actress' voice for Ada either. It does actually feel a bit flat, like she recorded her lines in her closet one night while trying not to wake anyone up. She went from suave, sophisticated spy chick to morning radio DJ. That said, it's nothing I would waste energy complaining about on the internet. What I will complain about is that while I'm enjoying the game, holy shit the pacing is all over the place. It's like they took their sweet time and expanded the hell out of some areas, then squeezed the shit out of others. You can wander through an area for two hours doing almost nothing, then have to do a bunch of stuff back to back to back. For example, last night I was playing through an area where there wasn't a whole lot going on, then I hit a spot where I had to fight a bunch of ganados along with two of the blind guys with the metal wolverine claws, then a few minutes later got dropped into the cave where you have to run around escaping Salazar's "right hand" while the elevator lowered, then had to run around in an area with infinitely respawning enemies and chainsaw chicks to get the dynamite, THEN I got dropped almost immediately into the twin giant fight in the lava room. I had to stop playing because I was just fucking exhausted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ignored that and chose Normal anyway, and I'm still struggling with the game because there are a lot more areas where the enemies never stop respawning, but there's really no way to know until after you've spent a shit ton of ammo killing a bunch of them. Then you just kinda realize it's never going to stop and move on. I've been squeezed on ammo a few times because of this. It's one of the few things I don't really like about the game. The game is different enough from the original where it doesn't really matter if you've played it before, except maybe the strategy of one or two bosses, like the first giant fight.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 I beat the original 3 or 4 times and I still played on Normal. I didn't struggle too much, but I died plenty. I never play games on Hard. I'm not the best gamer and I don't like being repeatedly frustrated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclyp Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Intro + cabin which were in the OG as well. I’m not playing on hardcore so again I can’t comment on how frustrating the game is on that difficulty, but if you compare base difficulty OG vs the REmake, the REmake’s encounters are easier, the bosses are easier, and I would wager there are fewer overall enemies.

The part in the canyon where you have to turn the crank and the ganados are throwing dynamite, and the cave where you have to snag the dynamite to blow the cave-in are two that immediately come to mind. Also the walled in area when you first encounter the chainsaw woman (where you can have Ashley hide in the locker). I killed and killed and they just kept coming so I just eventually ran through and did what I needed to do. It's entirely possible I just didn't stick around long enough but I killed quite a few in each instance before I eventually said screw it.

The first part defiantly isn’t ringing a bell, but the first Bella sisters encounter defiantly has a limit; I didn’t leave that room until everyone was dead. EDIT - I know the first part now. Yeah that one is finite too, but the parts that trigger more mobs are not super obvious. And in both cases it’s a bunch of ganados for sure.
