Capcom had a senior moment perhaps

It is almost certainly for pacing reasons. People say the island is where things start to drag and you aren't going to cut Krauser, Mike or the Regenerators.

u3... that thing in the caves after krauser is gone, could be in seperate ways but uhh sounds like thats dlc. edit: the leaker has finished the game has not posted anything about it and its not in the cutscene files apparantly. :shrug:

Is this actually confirmed or are the people saying this going off a list of on-screen objectives that doesn't mention Verdugo either even though I've already seen him.

Achievements list leaked as well as the entire game. Verdugo has one.

This does not make sense when, again, aggregate indicia also indicate improvements. The belief that things are worse is false. It remains false.
Shame, I quite liked that encounter, even if it did seem quite arbitrary. It still flowed better than the insect caves.

I wonder how different planning around weapon choice and ammo use is going to feel, now that we have a crafting menu with its own slotless material storage. You can get a feel for it with 8 in particular, but it never really felt like it approached the extent of OG 4's combat because of the sheer length of that game and its focus on enemy mobs.

Imagine if you could shove the knife right up under its fingernail. Do they have fingernails? I dont care how big they are, thats gonna make em release its grip. What if all seems lost but just as its about to take a bite out of Leon, he stabs them right in the gums? Again, I dont care what kind of hellspawn you are, thats gotta hoyt.

QTEs are also gone, though in the case of Krauser it became a boss fight instead

The Mine Thrower is also gone but that is because they rolled its functionality into the new Crossbow weapon.

There's just no satisfaction in using automatics. Delivering even 9mm rounds in single fire with pinpoint precision is so much more fulfilling. The Deagle is obviously the greatest gun in every RE game, probably every game its in period. But machine guns have always just felt stupid in RE, except for the gatling gun

I really hope they don't skew more towards Village style "Your free magnum does not even start fully loaded. If you don't like it, Grind for the NG+ super giga magnum" in the remake. I was eying RE5 for a replay and saw that the Deagle in that game has less damage and less ammo capacity because... uh... Well it reloads faster! Wow! RE4 Killer 7 at least is a fun time because it peaks faster for less cash if you want to bully U3 harder, if you were not going to invest in the long haul for Butterfly exclusive.

As for the TMP, I also hated it for ages until I started waiting to buy it at the Castle, just in time for bigger inventory and clown cars amounts of cultists. Which is a time you can seriously start enjoying the TMP as an actual gun that kills people :buddy: Instead of damning it with the faint praise of "But think of all the knees you can shoot with the TMP!".

Before the castle, keeps feeling like the game pranking me for wanting to enjoy the TMP. "Oh the TMP stock isn't sold initially. Oh you don't have enough money to buy the TMP and rifle at the same time. Oh you have hardly any inventory space. Oh the TMP can't flatten a chainsaw dude to the ground with a single headshot, so you got your head cut off like a moron using the TMP" :sigh: Which chased me away from using it anymore for the longest time.

Hopefully wanting to use the TMP in the remake will be because it is actually good, sooner. And not "Oh chainsaw dudes don't fall down from rifle headshots, and your head got cut off like an idiot." making me want to skip the bolt action to save money. But I also saw some screenshots from the demo listing the fact the TMP can equip a stock later as a PERK. Which just made me start laughing. "Good aim sold separate. This is a Perk."

The more years go by, the more I am thankful that RE4 classic takes the increasingly rare path of "Every weapon is actually good. Enjoy your pick of cool options". Most games you realize "Wow, that gimmick weapon was really was overpriced." RE4 you learn the minethrower is one of the least expensive weapons in the game.

It’s such a weird one too cause all the other bosses make sense in their progression. The only truly mindless monster bosses were the lake monster and the el gigante. Everything after that is supposed to highlight that the Las Plagas are body horror, The Thing-like creatures where people with them are able to reason and act fully human, they’re supposed to be smart monsters. Jamming another random mindless monster that doesn’t resemble any other Las Plagas enemy before or after just felt like they need to plop something in to pad game time
