Resident Evil 4 (MOD, Immortality/Ammo)

Overview (5/5):

Resident Evil 4, even years after its initial release, remains a masterclass in survival horror. This particular modded version, boasting "Immortality/Ammo," completely alters the experience, transforming it from a tense struggle for survival into a ludicrous power fantasy. While this removes much of the original game's tension, it unlocks a different kind of fun, allowing players to experiment with combat and explore the game's world in a completely new light.

Graphics (4/5):

The original game's graphics, while showing their age, still hold a certain charm. The updated textures and models in many mods can significantly improve the visual experience, although it's worth noting that the inherent limitations of the original game engine are still present. The environments remain detailed and atmospheric, creating a suitably creepy and unsettling atmosphere.

Gameplay (4/5):

The "Immortality/Ammo" mod drastically changes the gameplay loop. The removal of the permadeath mechanic and the infinite ammo fundamentally alters the strategic considerations that defined the original game. While this makes the game considerably easier, it allows for more experimentation with different weapons and combat styles. The core gameplay mechanics, however, remain satisfying; aiming feels precise, the enemy AI is still challenging (even without the threat of death), and the combat remains engaging. The puzzle elements, thankfully, remain untouched.

Sound (5/5):

The sound design in Resident Evil 4 is legendary, and this mod doesn't alter that. The unsettling atmosphere is perfectly complemented by the haunting music and chilling sound effects. The realistic gunshots, the terrifying Ganados' cries, and the unsettling ambience all contribute to an immersive and terrifying experience, even with the increased ease of gameplay.

Final Thoughts (4.5/5):

Resident Evil 4 (MOD, Immortality/Ammo) is not a replacement for the original experience. It's a completely different game, offering a unique take on a classic title. If you're looking for a challenging and tense survival horror experience, this mod isn't for you. However, if you want to enjoy the game's mechanics and environments without the constant pressure of death and resource management, this mod provides a highly entertaining and replayable experience. It's a fun experiment and a testament to the enduring quality of the original game.
