Resident Evil 4 (2023) - Part 2-2
Finally, after going through several large fights, and a few puzzles, David Phillips and I have what we need to get our missing girl out of this accursed village safe and sound.
Surely, once we find her, nothing bad is going to happen right?
Right?
As a reminder, I never played the original Resident Evil 4. I have no attachments, good or ill, to that version of Ashley. For me, the version we have in this 2023 remake is the one that I have experience with, so she will be the one I think about. (Aside from Moushley.)
Having said that, I quite like this version of Ashley Graham. They’ve given her a strongly defined personality to start with. For now, she is very much the damsel in distress, but that’s merely a starting point. And over the course of the game, it’s fun to watch her grow in capability and confidence.
I’ve been told that the original version of the character was annoying, but I would never have guessed that from how she behaves here. She acts in much the way I would expect a young woman of her age and station to behave, especially since she’s barely an adult and thrust into a situation well beyond her understanding.
She’s great.
