The issue I took with RE4 was the shitty shoulder-offset aiming camera that made it nigh impossible to hit anything further out than eight feet. It was very frustrating to realize that I am better with a handgun than Leon Kennedy, a Secret Service agent and survivor of Raccoon City who presumably received exhaustive weapons training.
I mean, really... I have three ganado bearing down on me from twenty feet away and I have to frantically wave my gun around looking for the red dot to appear on one of them?
This is precision aiming:
This is also precision aiming (notice the reticle):
...and THIS is bullshit designed to make a game artificially difficult:
The shooting angle was so insufferable and unusable that I couldn't even get through the first town square part (where they were burning that guy) without quitting in frustration. I don't care how great the storyline or gaming experience might have been after that.
Shitty aiming = Fuck you, RE4.
