Hey everyone! I’m stuck trying to decide between buying the Resident Evil 4 Remake or Resident Evil Village. They both look amazing but I’m feeling a bit anxious about my choice. I noticed that RE4 doesn’t really go on sale as often as Village, which makes it tougher! Any advice on what you think is more worth it?

If you haven’t played RE7, I’d recommend starting there before going to Village since they go together story-wise. RE4 has more gameplay meat to it and isn’t as scary as 7 and 8. But if you just want fun and replayability, RE4 is your best bet!
I’d definitely go for the RE4 Remake! It’s super action-packed and so much fun to play. Village is good too, but if you’re thinking about replaying it, there’s a part that might get frustrating each time you go through it. Plus, the Mercenaries mode in Village offers some replay value, but RE4 Remake has way more overall thrill. If you’re okay with spending a little more, it’s worth it! By the way, if you’re on PC, they’re currently on sale, so check that out!
As someone who’s played through all the RE games multiple times, I’d say the RE4 Remake has the best gameplay of the series! It’s just pure fun and super replayable compared to Village. I really enjoyed both, but for gameplay that keeps you engaged, RE4 Remake takes the cake!
Village is decent if you’re into intense moments with giant monsters showing up every five seconds! It’s a wild ride, and I absolutely loved it. But if you’re leaning towards a longer game with better replay value, you might want to stick with RE4 Remake.
I think RE4 has some horror elements too, just in a different way than Village!
