This is how you do a remake. Graphics look amazing, gameplay is much better with the quick time events being completely gone and the Survival Horror element is given a bigger focus while still retaining the action heavy approach of the original.

I will admit to being skeptical of a Resident Evil 4 remake seeing how iconic the original game is and how Village already felt like a modernized RE4 in terms of gameplay. Never doubt Capcom, though, because they once again pulled through with another stellar remake. That said, this game doesn’t fuck around on the difficulty so be prepared for that. Me being a masochist I played this game on Hardcore and I wouldn’t advise that for first time players unless if they want a challenge. What a year for horror fans. We should thank our lucky stars.
