I'm a boomer and have played every game in the franchise all the way along since the PS1. If a new player wanted to try the series the 1 game I would pick for them to try first would be Resident Evil 2 Remake.
by playing whatever latest game is available on your system of choicepeople who obsess over release or chronological order are retardedby the time you catch up the series will shit out 10 more gamesjust play something, nobody cares, there's no right or wrong way to do itwatch retards that don't even play video games seethe in replies
>>729377035RE7 or RE2 Remake
1, 2, 3, CV, 1R, 0, 4, 5, 6, 7, 2R, 3R, 8, 4R, 9>but I don't have time to play all of tho-Yes you do.
>>729377035dont play it chronologically, imo play specific characters games how you like. better to start with some more modern games so you dont get filteredRE7 -> RE8 then into RE2RE -> Optional: RE3 Remake -> RE4RE after that either wait for the new game or get into the classics. Or if you're schizo enough start from RE1 original and go up in chronological order, but keep in mind lots of games arent available in their original form on PC
>>7293770351, 2, 3, cv, 1 remake if you wanna be a classicfag4, 5, 6, 2 remake, 3 remake, 4 remake if you want a modern experience7 and 8 if you are a zoomernigger
>>729377035Re4 2005
>>729377035Play Resident Evil 2 remake. SKIP 3 Remake. Play 4 Remake. Play VII. Play the rest if you're still into it. Alternatively, play every original in chronological order (but only if you're a regular retro enjoyer).
>>729377171I'm on PC so can play/emulate all of them I assume?>>729377331I like Silent Hills so I imagine I can handle the old ones.
>>729377605>I'm on PC so can playsince you have 4chan and twitch one alt-tab away (or on the second monitor) the answer is probably no
play RE2 remake first. that's the best modernized version of the original games. the better combat and over the shoulder camera is the SUPERIOR form of this series. the original puzzling and fixed camera shit is 100% NICHE these days.
>>729377605Just get the Remake trilogy, it's 36€ on Steam for RE 2+3+4 with all the DLC
>>729377035If you want the bare bones. >Go into RE 7>Go into RE 8If you want the Time Line Experience >REmake of 1>REmake of 2>Skip 3, all versions>REmake of 4>Skip 5 & 6, all versions>Go into RE 7>Go into RE 8If you want the entire Resident Evil Experience>RE 0>REmake of 1>RE 2 followed by REmake of 2>Original RE 3 skip REmake 3>RE Code Veronica>Original RE 4 or REmake 4>RE 5 & 6>RE 7 & 8
>>729377035It's one of the easiest series to get into. Just play the numbered ones in order. They're all short games.
>>729377035>RE1 Director's Cut (NOT the Director's Cut: Dualshock version, which is the one with the shitty meme OST)>RE2 Dualshock>RE3>RE4>RE1 Remake>RE2 RemakeRE3 Remake was outsourced and is shit, don't play it
>playing remakes/remastered/hd editions of any sort instead of original releases on their intended original consolesabsolute tasteless cattle.
>>729378242Okay unc
>>729377035Just play the re-makes in order. It is Capcom they WILL remake every game they made eventually.
>>729377035>classics: 1, 2, 3 (obviously)these are the fixed camera "tank control" games. you can play the HD remakes, they're fine, but not the modern remakes that play like 4 with an over the shoulder camera. those are more similar too>the action games: 4, 5, 6third person shooters with an over the shoulder camera and a focus on action. 4 is the best, 5 is a decent followup, and 6 is kinda shit, but maybe if you're an uber fan you can play it and it'll satisfy you.>the modern games: 7, 8I only played 7, and it was in first person. not an incredible experience but not terrible. it's worth playing, I think. I don't know about 8, and I doubt it's any better. these games star a new protagonist, so fuck him. give me leon any day.>other gamesyou can play code veronica, revelations 1 + 2, outbreak 1 + 2. some others might recommend other spin off shit but nah family don't do it.>DLCsre4 ada wong DLC is good, re5 lost in nightmares/desperate escape is good, the mercenaries is a good arcade mode. I don't know about anything else, I doubt 6 had good DLC.
RE is a very convenient franchise to "get into" given that the first game is the best and the sequels follow on from that and do their own things. There's no reason whatsoever to skip RE1 since it exemplifies the best aspect of the franchise better than any of the other games.
>>729378067>Just play the numbered ones in order.As a long time fan, I know you can't play them in order because the series restarts itself 5 times and pretends certain titles aren't canon. >0 -> 1 -> 2 Are canon and tied together. 0 has the Umbrella creator Spencer and how the 1st team ended up inside the mansion. 1 Has 2 core characters; Chris and Jill of the franchise solving and escaping the mansion. 2 has 1Core character Leon; as the events of the mansion spill out unto the City that he has to escape. Claire is mostly treated as a side story, but she is still intertwined with more important main characters. (Chris's sister, Jill's friend, Leon's partner).>3Might as well not exist and is treated more like Jill's side story. Nothing that happens here matters at fucking all in the franchise. There are no recurring or returning characters besides Jill. >4is the next "Core" part of the series that many titles are based after. It follows Leon after the Raccoon city outbreak working security for the President as Secret Service. Leon's position in this title becomes a core asset of the character there after.>5 -> 6Are outright ignored and everyone acts like they never happened in lore. In fact, the newer games retcon these two games, since their time lines conflict. >7 -> 8Are directly tied together featuring the same main character, same timeline, story themes and gameplay elements. In fact, these two games are more important since past characters like Jill, Chris, Leon and Claire are slightly altered to fit this setting's timeline.
>>729377035You play the first game and then play the second, and then the third...
>>729377035>I want survival horrorstart with the classic rebirth patches of the original trilogy >I don't like tank controlsthen you don't like survival horror>I want actionstart with RE4. steam version is fine, some people swear by the gamecube or wii version. Can't go wrong as long as you don't play the PS2 version.>I want a modern take on survival horrorRE2 remake
>>729379101>Nothing that happens here matters at fucking all in the franchise.Wesker uses the antibodies Jill's body now produces as a result of being infected with, and subsequently cured of, the T-Virus to stabilize Uroboros in 5.>In fact, the newer games retcon these two games, since their time lines conflict.How? I admit that I haven't paid much attention to this in newer games.
>>729379101>I know you can't play them in order because the series restarts itself 5 times and pretends certain titles aren't canon.>0 -> 1 -> 2You're a retard. You just play the mainline games in release order. That's all you need to do.
>>729377269Pretty much this. Consider the remakes optional to save time and money but they're not bad. Play the revelations games if you like the series and are bored.
>>729379281For new fans, you don't want to burden them with obligations. 1 game, I can play but asking me to play 8 games is too much bullshit. I wouldn't do this, even for GOTY GOAT. It can go fuck right off.
>>729377035You pick with the game that looks the most appealing to you and play it, and you keep doing that until you've either gotten sick of RE or played all of them.There's obviously a canon timeline of events, but each game is pretty well isolated so you can play each one without knowing what's going on in the grander scheme of things and still have a good time.
>>729379391>and subsequently cured of, the T-Virus to stabilize Uroboros in 5.>And the thing with the thing counters the thing because it's sunday with the solar eclipse out negating the thing with the injection thing electrifiedIt's made up babble horseshit anon. It's a means to an end used to explain the monsters. All pretext of cohesion went out the window when leeches were introduced.
>>729379101>I know you can't play them in order because the series restarts itself 5 times and pretends certain titles aren't canonI know its almost like this series is all slop at this point and none of it should be taken seriously to begin with
>>729379549as a kid I would be excited to dive into a series with 8 games. you sound like an adult that isn't even enthusiastic about playing video games and just use them to take up your free time until real life events or work.
>>729379549that's the literal opposite thing I was trying to recommend. The point was to separate the games in the series by genre so OP can pick the style of game he like the best and just focus on those.Makes a lot more sense for an action fan to jump straight in RE4 rather than play 1, 2 and 3 out of obligation.
>>729379391>How? I admit that I haven't paid much attention to this in newer games.5 & 6 Take place in the far, but not too far future. When the cast are old, leaders in their field giving orders with Sherry being a 22yr old adult agent in 6. RE 7 ends with Chris showing up to save the day and he's revealed to be a younger late 20's Chris in age, not a guy in his 40's after 6's Timeline. Chris shows up again in 8's timeline and he is still a younger Chris after the events of RE4 chronologically. Not a heavily aged Chris based on 6's Timeline. If Chris is around a certain age, then that also applies to the entire cast of main characters since they were all linked together in that specific early to late 20's age group.
>>729380451Chris is the key to all of this.
>>729380451Can't you just chalk that up early RE Engine's "quirky" facial scanning?
>>729380139>so OP can pick the style of game he like the best and just focus on those.This is why you fail. You're asking a blind man to choose for himself. Keep it simple stupid. If you want to play RE 9, play RE 7 & 8. He can go from there, with no expectations at his own pace. When people want to be lead and told what to do, you don't give them a ton of choices and let them decide. What a nice leader you are, bet your gf loves how indecisive you are.
>>729377035RE2RE
>>7293770351, 2, 3, 4, 7. 5 and 6 aren't really worth the time. 8 is kinda meh but it's not complete dogshit. Still fun I guess.Play remakes 1-4 after if you want.
>>729380451They fucked him up in 7 but he has clearly aged a lot in 8.
>>729377171takes like two weekends to finish all of the REs, they're all giga short games
I'm not gonna lie guys i'm more confusedd than I was before making this post. Love you all
>>729385132It's simple. Just play them as they're numbered.
>>729385686women are turned on by this.
If you didn't play the original trilogy back in the day, you are not allowed to play the subsequent gamesRE is a series for those bron in the 80/90s
>>729377035Play Resident Evil 2 Remake and see if you like it. Game is short, less than 5 hours
>>729385941you made a typo
This is legit even though I've done some goofs.I played1R, 2, 3, 4 (here now), will continue to CV, 0, ....For 2 & 3 I recommend SourceNext versions.They are fairly simple to install.Go easy on the graphics, you do want pixels in the backgrounds at least. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bSlikA7fpp0>>729377269

I want to see live the theatre play experience with the babes.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgqwKDaYldshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MgqwKDaYlds
>>729377035The first game in the series I played was the original ps1 version of the first one and I played it last year. The early games are not as hard to get into as people who haven't played more than 10 minutes of them, if at all, say they are.
>>729386432she has stds
>>729377035Play them in release order, but ignore any consolefag telling you to play the PS1 versions. They're retarded. Use the PC ports of 1-3 with the Classic Rebirth mods and if you like - the seamless HD mod. If you want, I could even upload all 3 of them for you.
>>729377169Do better next time.
>>729377035REMake or RE1. GOG released 1-3 last year on PC and REMake has been on Steam for a long time. REMake and RE0 even have "modern controls" which make the game trivial. >>729377171>by the time you catch up the series will shit out 10 more gamesI beat RE0 in under 3 hours last night. I think Requiem drops in February. He has more than enough time to play every single mainline game.
>>729386253No it's supposed to be bron not born as you might be thinking
Is there a definitive list of the RE games you should NOT play? Games like RE1:DS, RE:REV2 for Vita, Mercenaries 3D etcWhich side do sub-franchises like Chronicles and Survivor fall into?
>recommending the remakes over the originals /v/ is dead
>>729387116No one cares unc
>>729387116the originals suck. let's see your hours.
>>729387116>recommending>reI saw what you fucking did there.
>>729387005Do you mean shitty releases or just ones which aren't considered the "true" edition? Because Deadly Silence is considered a pretty decent remake of the first one, just not as good as REMake.Any release for PC or consoles should be fine. Umbrella/Darkside are just retellings of the originals, they're not canon but still fun (and the PS3 wand thing is cheap on ebay). Survivor is light gun. 1 is original, 2 is a Code Veronica retelling, 3 is a Dino Crisis game.>>729387116I think RE1 and REMake are both games that people need to play. The atmosphere is so different between them that they feel like different games completely.
>>729387208The originals are kino, and we're top sellers for a reason. Anyone with a brain should be able to enjoy the OGs, and Remakes because they're all good games, except for that POS REmake 3.This tribalism is for dogs. They're all short games as well, so there's no excuse to skip OG 1-3. If you're filtered because of controls, you're bad at videogames.
RE2R and RE3R should have had their respective originals as an unlockable after beating the main game for the first time.
>>729377035You really don't "get into" RE. Guys like this are functionally retarded for example >>729377269The series has no real 'continuity' anymore. Capcom treats the current mainline as something that started in 2017-19 and all the game content follows that. I'm willing to bet that RE9 will even be more of a sequel to the RE4 remake than it is to Leon's actual last game, RE6 (and the guy who leaked it said as much), so there is no real point to play the originals.The only games you "need" to play are>Resident Evil 2 Remake>Resident Evil 3 Remake>Resident Evil 4 Remake>Resident Evil 7>Resident Evil 8
>>729387116If you want to "get into RE", there's no reason to play the originals. They're non-canon and their gameplay style isn't used by any of the canon games.
I'd like to play 7 & 8 so I can play 9 on release but I will stay on the journey.Currently on RE4HD Project 4-0.Will go on to CV, 0, 5, 6, Revelations, etc.
Play RE1RE at least OP. It's a great horror game in general and you will understand most of the things you need about the lore.
>>729387695I would even argue the canon started to melt away back in the 2000s. The Umbrella/Darkside Chronicles games already made the canonocity ambiguous, alongside the fact classic RE1 (and Remake) never had a true canon ending.Didn't the Outbreak games and their associated material also rewrite, or at least add to the Racoon City incident in ways that wasn't established in 2/3?It seems like Capcom has always played loose and sloppy, outside of 1-3 and VC themselves
>>729387879They should be played because they're what put RE on the roadmap retard, and they're still fantastic games in their own right - especially when Classic Rebirth and the Seamless HD mods are out. OG 1-3 ARE the reason the series is talked about at all.I played them for the first time in 2017, right before Remake 2 and absolutely adored them. Anyone who isn't a retarded mutt would feel the same.A good game will always be a good game.
>>729388254>The Umbrella/Darkside Chronicles games already made the canonocity ambiguous, alongside the fact classic RE1 (and Remake) never had a true canon ending.No, not really.UC and DC have weird recaps, but they're also framed as recountings/documentation, which excuses inconsistencies. The original narratives are the only significant things to take from them, and things like Death's Door do line up with a game like Outbreak, even if the RE3 scenario is contradictory to the original RE3.>Didn't the Outbreak games and their associated material also rewrite, or at least add to the Racoon City incident in ways that wasn't established in 2/3?Outbreak adds things, yeah, but they didn't contradict or overwrite any past materials beyond reclarifying the nature of RC's destruction, which was something they always planned to do. RC was never meant to be nuked, so Outbreak shows it as a missile barrage that takes out the town. >It seems like Capcom has always played loose and sloppy, outside of 1-3 and VC themselvesRE3 is literally the sloppy one. Everything else from 1, to 2, to CV, to the Survivor trilogy, to Outbreak, to 0, all of those had extensive planning and were intentional in what they did.3 wasn't.
>>729377035>Tell me how to get into this series and DON'T tell me to play the games I want a REAL answer
>>7293880739 has nothing to do with 7 and 8, and it's a direct continuation of the modern Leon titles (Remake 2, and 4).
>>729388438That has nothing to do with getting into RE though.If you want to 'get into RE', you shouldn't be playing the older titles. They're irrelevant and nobody TODAY talks about them, nobody gives a shit about those games.
>>729377035Probably by starting with the first one?
>>729388531They're talked about pretty frequently on /horg/ along with other old school survival horror games. Playing the older titles, even after playing the new ones, is an experience everyone should have especially RE1/REMake, like someone else said there's a crazy tone shift which makes them really feel like two different games.
>>729388531OP should absolutely play OG RE1-3, as they're still objectively the games that put the series onto the roadmap that is today. He's asking for a starting point, and I gave him objectively the best place. He can skip all the dogshit entries after 1-4 and go right to the Remakes/Nu entries, but he should absolutely still play the OGs. I couldn't give less of a shit what argument you can muster to argue against it. Cope. Anyone looking to get into RE should ALWAYS start with 1-3.
>>729388726Well, they aren't the games that did that because RE has rebooted itself since 2017. Nothing that came before that point matters to the prospect of "getting into" the series, and it's a terrible starting point because it's fucking irrelevant, they play nothing like the games he clearly wants to get to, and he'll get nothing he wants out of it. This idea of the ethos of the titles, how significant they were historically, is irrelevant to OP's question, which is getting into RE, the ongoing franchise. These titles are not relevant to that.
>>729386327damn i was hoping the gog version fixed everything
>>729388507A person didnt make this thread its just another daily capcom astroturf
>>729388853They're good games, and the reason the series exists. Doesn't matter about "irrelevance", which is the most retarded thing one could argue when OP is looking for an entryway into the series.The only thing irrelevant here is your dog shit opinion. This isn't about a utilitarian, minimalistic way to start with RE. He is asking for the way to start the series, and OG 1-4 are the ways to go because they're excellent games. Cope. Keep writing your word salad lectures, but no one will listen to you because you're still wrong.
>>729388951They're still playable.
>>729389036He's asking how to get into RE.Nobody who asks that is seeking to play every fucking game in the franchise. If they wanted that, they'd consult wikipedia. They want the quick and dirty way that only has the relevant titles.The only relevant titles to RE are the ones released after 2017.
>>729388529You get the full story with 2 & 4? I assume the classic Umbrella chapter is over with 6?I will keep playing and find out.
>>729389271Are you an illiterate retard? OP literally asked, "How do I get into this franchise?" The OGs are absolutely the way to do this - they're what 90% of what RE's continuity is based off (including Outbreak, 5, etc), they're short (less of an investment of than the REmake games), and they're free if you're not a moron.Stop posting faggot, you're embarassing yourself. T
>>729388951SourceNext is unbeatable and faithful. https://classicrebirth.com/index.php/downloads/resident-evil-2-classic-rebirth/
>>729389334You get the full story by playing RE1-4 dude. Leave the thread and play them already. 7 and 8 are the mold storyline which has nothing to do with Racoon City.
>>729389334The "classic umbrella" games are RE1, RE2, CVX and RE5. Chris/Wesker, Chris/Claire, Umbrella, Spencer, Progentior etc are all wrapped up in those games. Arguably you could add RE0 in there. RE3 is almost irrelevant besides Jill's infection and RE4 is only relevant in terms of Wesker's small appearances
>>729389440Are you?Nobody who wants to play every game in the franchise is coming here to ask about how to get into it, because they wouldn't need to.The original titles are also not what "90% of RE's continuity is based off", and that hasn't been the case for nearly a decade. We already know RE9 is a sequel to the remakes and their retcons.
>>729377035Why are you even asking such a gay question? If you want to play something you just fucking play it, you don't go asking others for an opinion like a fucking faggot.
I am so ready for the 2000s, nu-metal era, video game revival.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds1xo-Hfq68https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds1xo-Hfq68>>729389490
>>729389617Are you retarded? Playing 3 or 4 short games is not, "playing every game on the franchise".Your modern Remakes came out in fucking 2017 onwards dipshit. There's nearly 20 years of RE content that existed between the originals, and before 2/3/4 Remake. That's ALL material utilizing the OG canon. By comparison, barely anything utilizes the modern canon stemming from 2 Remake. You don't even have a consistent argument here. By the very virtue of all that content stemming from the OGs, they are absolutely the way to initially play. Yet again, you ignore any specifics like... 1) their length, 2) ease of access, etc. you have nothing substantiate other than. "Hurt they're newer so they're a better starting point".If the whole point is to get into RE, you do it with the core games! That's what RE 1-4 are you, blithering moron.. Skipping them is entirely missing the point because they ARE what RE is.
>>729377035You don't; they're all boring and annoying, especially the remakes.
>You don't; they're all boring and annoying, especially the remakes.

>>729392464The originals and REmakes are all good games, and are all worth playing except REmake 3.
>>729392552Imagine choosing to play trash like Rev 1 and 2, RE5 or 6 instead of OG 2 and 3.
>>729392558I think that the original RE2 is completely irrelevant now that RE2make exists
>>729392636Well you're pretty dumb for thinking that. REmake 2's removal of A/B, and ruining Ada's storyline already make it a different game. They're both worth playing as they're both good games, but the idea that REmake 2 replaces the OG is peak midwit behavior.
>>729392636Good games never become irrelevant
>>729392629I wanted to play them all and get all the achievementsnone of them were cheated in
>>729392810RE1-3 are good* (for the time/limitations when they released)
>>729392826You didn't beat them all. You missed the core trilogy. REmake 1 and OG1 are very similar, but REmake 2/3 are completely different from OG2/3.Go get S rank in OG2 and 3.
>>729392917They're good till this day, unless you're a sub 80iq retard. I played them for the first time back in 2017 and they absolutely hold up.Are you bad at videogames?
>>729392929I don't care about your ideal of "beating" them, I beat all of those on their hardest difficulties and got S+ where possible. I'll eventually play the OGs but this isn't some Dark Souls shit where I didn't beat the game because I used heals. Grow up.
>>729393097Yeah zoom zoom, play the real OG2/3... and get S rank lol (which is fun). I brought that up in the first place as the OGs didn't have achievements , and that's clearly something important to you - so getting A rank is the mark of properly beating the game. The fact you got aggressive about it is hilarious. You chose to waste your time with dogshit entries instead of playing real RE lol.Grow up? This is about videogames faggot, and you're flexing gay achievements for bad games. Where the fuck does the Dark Souls comparison have relevance here? Where in ANY way did I say you have to play a certain way? I NEVER said "you didn't beat the game". Is literacy difficult for you? Or are you so defensive you anticipate arguments?
>>729377171That would be RE8 which is a retarded place to start, obviously RE1 Classic Rebirth or REmake HD are the only acceptable options to anyone sane. No one likes or wants to discuss with a bandwagon bitch, start at the beginning or get lost. You could play the original trilogy in a weekend and it would be an amazing experience, why wouldn't you want to?
There is absolutely zero reason to not play the OG 1-3 it's like $15 on GOG for all three of them.
>>729393376Holy fuck someone's having a meltdown over some fuckin gamesI leave the thread and you stop existing to me, your opinion is worth less than dirt to me, lmao
>>729393493Typing aggressively doesn't equal meltdown you absolute embarrassment. Are you that fragile?
>>729393548You're the one who went on a triade over me not having played the og games. Which is something I said I was gonna do regardless of you getting mad over it. Are you that retarded? Don't answer that, rethorical question.
>>729393493Your opinion doesn't mean much either. You got angry for zero reason. Nothing in this post, ">>729392929" implied any anger or dismissal towards you. You said you beat them all, then I said you didn't. Did that hurt your feelings? My argument was with someone else. It's here, >>729393097 where you instantly get defensive and pissy like a big baby - when all I said was that you missed out on two games !!Rofl, what a fucking baby you are.
>>729392636>>729393097You beat your modernized tps action game that means nothing. REmake 2 is a great game sure, does not have the same vibe or cover nearly as many bases as the OG. They are effectively completely different games. And don't even think for a second the trash RE3 remake is an acceptable replacement for the actual RE3. That shit ain't Nemesis.
>>729393695Tirade? Nigger, I told you you missed out on two games and you blew a gasket. That's all I said initially! Go to therapy you big fucking baby.

>>729393796Yeah because you can't handle being called out for being a sensitive, fragile retard - for simply being told you missed dout on two games. Then you had to try and flex your gay achievements. Keep crying you infantile faggot.
>>7293770351,2,3,cv and 1r and then stop and ignore everything else since it isn't canon or RE
>>729393796Your delusional fragile kind always has a meltdown when a whole 2 people share the same (correct) opinion. He's right btw, in the time it took you to embarrass yourself you could've torrented them and enjoyed yourself by now instead.
>4 vastly different versions of the main scenario (only about 3 hours each as well)>Each replay is customizable because of the zapping system>Arrange modes in the DC and PC versions that add a lot more to the game>A continuously improving HD mod>Completely free, with Classic Rebirth ensuring the game works on everything >Extreme battle with multiple characters (like Chris Redfield!)It's insane how many people are trying to avoid playing the most content dense RE game, that's also the most entry-level. Sourcenext 2 with Classic Rebirth is an excellent game no matter it's age The REmake is a fantastic game in itself, but it's simply a different game all together. Anyone who likes videogames owes it to themselves to play both, but REmake 2 is especially more enjoyable if you understand it's context and what it's changed/detained. This idea that people on this thread think it's a waste of time to play the OGs is just insanity. You come to this website to talk about, and recommend videogames - well here it is, an excellent game to play. Don't skip the best REs just to reach the modern slop instead. RE7 and 8 are good games, but they're no classic RE2 or 3.
CV is legit garbage, canon or not - it sucks
>>729396114>t. Penis Williams CVX is top tier
>>729392750>REmake 2's removal of A/BIt didn't>and ruining Ada's storylineIt's better in the remake.
>>729393479>There is absolutely zero reason to not play the OG 1-3They play like shit?
>>729396882I replayed all of them recently and they hold up just fine
>>729396882They don't though. Are you bad at videogames? >>729396827Are you stupid? Leon A/Claire B and Claire A/Leon B are completely gutted and are in no way even remotely comparable to second run. As I said, you have 4 variations of the main playthrough that are very different from one another.The fact you can't even acknowledge how Ada's plotline was ruined just shows you don't know what you're talking about.
>>729397065>Leon A/Claire B and Claire A/Leon B are completely gutted and are in no way even remotely comparable to second run.Barely anything is different. >The fact you can't even acknowledge how Ada's plotline was ruined just shows you don't know what you're talking about.I can't disprove a negative. You probably already have some schizo reasoning for why the original is supposedly better, so nothing I say would magically make it okay for you.
>>729397165>Barely anything is different Yeah, shut the fuck up . Post disregarded, you have 0 idea what you're talking about. I'm not even gonna read the rest.
>>729392750>ruining Ada's storylineyou should actually play the original game, emulate it on duckstation or get the gog release. It's actually hilarious how she tells Leon she was tsundere for him out of nowhere
>>729397231Autistic hangups of OGtrannies aren't real issues.The remakes not including one room or whatever isn't a real issue.
>>729397054>>729397065>tank control shit>auto aim by default to compensate for how innately these games lack any real challenge that isn't due to the controls and camera>every enemy is a bullet sponge of some variety, only difference between them being their appearance and maybe their stun animation>half the game is just backtracking through empty hallsThey're bad. There's a reason the series was dying before RE4.
Oh you play the games.
>>729397254Are you completely unaware of the Ada and John thing? You know - her entire reason for being included in RE2 in the first place? It doesn't even make sense they removed it as Ada and John are STILL referenced in REmake 1!You also realize she's supposed to have budding feelings for Leon right? She's a frigid bitch the remake. Holy fuck what an idiot you are.
>>729397431>Only retards are filtered by tank controls>Game is designed around auto-aim >Enemies are bullet sponges in the remake as well (and you can handle majority of them by blowing off their legs in the OG anyway)>Backtracking is in Remake as wellWow you're a fucking retard
>>729397284Well it certainly classifies it as a completely different game, worth playing in its own right. It's not a hangup - I love REmake 2. The original is just also worth playing, and is also an excellent game.The fact you're filtered by a game for preteens is pretty sad
>>729397586>fails to respond to any criticisms beyond "Actually that's a good thing" or misconstruing other gamesIn the remakes, you're never backtracking, you're always going to new places. Additionally, the enemies aren't bullet sponges, they require actual skill to handle (hence why the game doesn't have auto aim on by default).
>>729397703It's not a 'completely different game'. It's the same game but far better.
>>729397857You're a moron. There's plenty of times in Remake where you go through sections of the police station again. If you have perfectly optimized run-throughs at probably followed a guide lol Someone who isn't an idiot can also optimize their path through the OG again as well. They're very similar in execution and it's alarming you'd bring up a point that idiotic. The very fact you're whining about backtracking at all in an RE thread at all shows you're a rancid secondary whose probably used to 4, 5 and 6.
>>729393479SourceNext is better.
>>729397165>Barely anything is different.Bigger difference than the remake.
>>729377035the nortubel of crapcom
imagine getting filtered by tank controls lmao
>>729395658>zapping system>Extreme battle with multiple charactershUH?I just downloaded the gog version the games i was about to play them but idk what do you mean by SourcenextWhere do i get it?

>>729377035Have the sample platter than go from there:RE4 (OG)REmakeRE2 RemakeDepending on which one you like from here will determine which gen of RE to hop in on.
>>729392826>bragging steam achievementsmeaningless since you can just 100% by installing an xploit, this is a s new low
>>729377035i cant stand nu evilscamera and controls added so much immersion in the old gamesnew games are just grotesque and overboard with the gore, like remake 2disgusting gamealso remind me of every third person ever madeskill issue or not i can just play a relaxing game with the same perspektive and get more out of it than playing a highly linear corridor game that tries too hard to force you to manage your items completely falling flat in the processnigger we all played rust minecraft 7d2d we all can manage inventory so the only puzzle element is ratiod what is left, boring af walking around and sometimes shooting 1 or two zombiesoriginals were better and no im not talking remake 1
