When I saw Ada in the trailer, I couldn't help but notice the lack of iconic red dress and more her attire being straight out of RE6. Yet Leon gets to keep his jacket from the original. Guess like with RE3make Jill, Capcom can't tolerate outfits being fanservice by default. Nevermind how much Dimitrescu was used to promote Village.
I suppose Krauser won't be saying "Well if it isn't the bi*ch in the red dress" now.
Aside from that, I hope they have Ada's other alts from the original RE4. Liked those too, and they weren't even as fanservicey as her default in that game. For her default in this remake, I would've taken a new outfit even if it covered her up more, but just reusing the RE6 outfit is lazy, if that's the case.
If that's the worst I can say about this remake though, then it's trivial in the grand scheme of things. Jill being covered up more in the 3 remake wasn't too surprising, but it was also like the least of that game's problems.
It's so god damn beautiful.
Also, looks like Chief Mendez will be a stalker type enemy this game. He's rendered with a sick hat in actual gameplay now.

Just have to wait and see. I'm worried about a lot of things with this. Ashley's AI for instance if they don't outright nix the escorting. You can call her annoying but she has the best AI in the series you don't see again in future RE titles where the partner AI in those won't get out of the way and completely waste healing items over the most minor injuries. Apply that kind of AI to RE4 and that won't get annoying...

Unless they have different stalkers for different areas, Dr Salvador aka the chainsaw man would've been scarier to have hunting you imo. I feel nothing but dread around that guy.

Stays close, tries going behind you during fights, ducks when you aim in her direction, cheers when you land crits, doesn't wander off, warns you if taken, tells you if you're venturing too far after you told her to hide/wait. For an AI fulfilling the role of scared teen, yeah AI did good which is more than the other AIs do without player guidance are brainless lobby filling bots.
Leon's model looks fking fantastic for his RE4 iteration. Legit bad@ss. They knocked him out of the park.

Sure, the environments and characters look nice but that's all it's been so far: visuals. No real gameplay yet beyond walking. Leon couldn't even go in the house and meet the first Ganado before it cut to black during the livestream. After 3, I'm not taking Resident Evil remakes at face value anymore.

I still don't get the hate for 3. It was a good game, and they did well in the limited time they used for it. I was a fan of the original, and even still I admit that it was a retread of RE2 with reused resources and slapped together level design. Doesn't make it any less of an interest story and game to me though.

"they did well in the limited time they used for it"
You just answered your own question. You shouldn't be rushing a game, especially one with fans waiting nearly twenty years for, just to make way for another remake you deem more important. How would RE4 fans feel if 5 was the more ambitious remake leaving 4 in a similar half-assed state? Alright, everyone, we're removing the castle, the village sections will be smaller, Krauser & Luis we'll be killing off way quicker, the salamander and the U-3 I felt were filler anyway.

I'm fine with you and anyone liking the RE3make though. I admit there's some things to like about it, but still a disappointment when knowing what could've been.
I'm cautiously hyping the remake of 4 regardless, but it does feel like some are hyping it as though the remake of 3 wasn't in any way mishandled. That, or, not referring to you on this part specifically, many just didn't like the original RE3 much to begin with, so when a remake made it even shorter, they just shrugged and went "Oh well, onto the next thing!".
That is what the current remake formula feels like though; "onto the next thing!", as opposed to taking their time. An RE4 remake was pretty much announced right after RE3 released after all. I know they have a better team working on the 4 remake and was obviously developed a good bit longer than the RE3make, but still, every remake should be made with time and love. Remember how long it took for an RE2 remake to come out? A long while, but it was worth the wait. Can't really say the same for the remake of 3 though.
Remake Nemesis was toned down in response to how unforgiving remake Mr X was for players. I firmly believe that's what happened, but the amount of content from the original RE3 that was cut in the remake didn't help either.
Recurring stalker characters seems to be a main theme for every RE game now though, what with Mendez in the upcoming RE4. Just don't make them such a scripted pussy like remake Nemesis, and they should always be a good horror experience. There was Ustanak in RE6 too, granted, but he was similar in being highly scripted with how 6 was an action game. Remake Nemesis was more like Ustanak than he was like Mr X, which was kind of the problem...
While still on the topic, just gonna leave this here.
First impressions from a game intro say a lot, and said intro gave a good idea right off as to how rushed RE3make was. When playing the 4 remake, pay attention to the intro, as it'll give a good idea of what you're gonna get.
