The original Resident Evil trilogy is on Steam. Not an April Fools joke for once, the games are actually on sale right now.
Thanks gabe, still not buying it
We won, the original trilogy is now available to be played. REmake LOST
>Resident Evil>Resident Evil(1996)lollmao
what's the point when the remakes are there
>>736198745Time to play RE3 Nemesis and see how wrong boomers are
>finally bring original RE trilogy to Steam>do it on April 1st with zero fanfare>discounted but no bundle>bare minimum ports>no option for upscaling (like the fan remaster) so they look super crunchyOh Capcom. At least people will stop complaining now, surely.
>>736198745This fellow's features always seemed a bit out-of-proportio to me.
>>736199609they cost more than re3 remake
>>736198745Is RE1 the Director's Cut?
>>736199609Oh and>use GOG versions that can't be modded, which are inferior to the SourceNext versions that can be modded>>736199705That's pretty funnyOG RE3 is still better even in this state.
>20 shekels each
They should be 5 euro in a bundle
Also this one
>>736199609>muh fanfareFuck I hate these freaks who are obsessed with advertisements. Oh no I have to think for myself instead of getting my opinions from corporations.
>>736198745No Gun Survivor?
If they're not SourceNext ports then they're worthless and you shouldn't spend money on them.
>DRMFor what purpose?
>>736200063its just the ones with existing pc ports
I support GoG.
>>736198745>You can get every mainline Resi game on Steam now>except Code VeronicaIt's a shit game but I hope they add it. Get GoG to make an Outbreak port with functional online too.
>>736200109Can't wait for GoG to bring us working copies of Outbreak. They will do it bros. and Lifeline.
>>73619986820? Lmfao, i hope rom sites dont delete the fucking roms.
>>736200105https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Resident_Evil_Survivor
just bring the original silent hills to steam ffs who cares about RE they're genuinely way too old
>THEY ADDED DRM>THEY ADDED DRM TO THE DRM FREE GOG PORT>THEY ADDED DRM TO THE DRM FREE GOG PORT OF A 30 YEAR OLD GAMECapcom is so bad its crazy
>>736200015>killed the franchisePress S to spit
>>736199001Humiliation ritual
>>736200180guess which site just shut down today
>>736200082That's my favorite part. Slapping that DRM on it when it's already been sitting on GoG for many moons without it. Hilarious.And to anyone in this thread crying about how you should just play the superior sourcenext ports (I agree they are the best pc versions) no one knows where to get those anymore.
>>736200082>>736200296Goddamn. Is there any reason to buy these over the GOG versions then?
>>736200382They dont even have steam achievements so no
>>736200296>DRM for games that can be pirated in 10000 different waysFor what purpose?
>>736200410They PAID MONEY to put DRM on those games. The fee for the DRM is probably more than the sales they will make out of them lol
why does everyone in the RE universe keep making bioweapons that kill people, why don't they make bioweapons that carry boxes or something
>DRM>no upscaling>no mods>not even cheevosBruh
I played the emulated dolphin games with the hd textures thing, is this pc version any better?
>>736200237You will play the silent hill remakes and you will enjoy it
>>736198745>enigma DRMkill yourself capcom
>>736200469Not really.

>>736200237that's jewnami, faggot
>>736198745lol
>DRMI might've bought them for a buck a pop for as shamelessly as they've been whored out over the years but come on now.
>>736200469No lolSourceNext is better for modding/QoL and Dolphin is better for visualsThese ports are just "official" and that's it. Super barebones and they slapped some extra DRM on top for no reason.
>>736200549russian spyware bloat drm doesn't run on 1996 hardware
>>736198745No achievements, no buy. Simple as.
>>736198745>enigma protector>somehow needs 8gb of ram despite these being ports of 30 year old gamesexplain to me why I shouldn't just emulate these or duckstation, dolphin or play the old pc ports
>>736200549capcom is smoking crack
>>736198745Who cares the pc ports are fucking broken dog shit even with mods especially on linux
>>736200762Because you want to give Capcom money in the foolish hope they'd make more fixed camera games.
>>736200549>STORAGE: 4 GB available spacewhat?? is that a typo
>>736200350They're a single google search away.
>>736198745>no achievementsLiterally what is the point when these are objectively worse than already existing ways to play these games on PC?
>>736198745Cool, now port Code Veronica.
>>736200876Steam duplicates games when installing in the way they do things so they need the extra space for when they run the install.
>>736198745Is there a reason for playing these over the emulated GC version? Honest question.
>>736200915I did that and all I got were reddit threads asking where to find them now with nothing but deleted answers.
>>736200835they haven't made one in 24 years. they didn't make one despite the success of REmake HD, and the RE2 and 3 remakes go for a different style entirely?
>>736198745You know emulation exists right? KWAB
What's the difference between these GOG ports and SourceNext/Classic REbirth? Is it the same case as the Silent Hill ports where the mods are included officially?Cloud Saves? Achievements?Trying to get my bearings on whether it's worth it to get these on Steam or to just keep going with the non-Steam imports of SourceNext
>>736201024No.Can't even mod these versions, have to use SourceNext.
>>736200082Why is Capcom so fucking dumb.
>>736200549GOG listen requirements:>System: Windows 10/11>Processor: 2.0 GHz>Memory: 2 GB>Graphics: 100% compatible with DirectX 9.0c>Storage: 650 MBEither they just fucked up the description or the DRM performance hit is insane
>>736201049That's why it's foolish>>736201062There's no mods, Capcom isn't smart enough for that
>>736201024By default? No. Enigma and no JP versions like what GoG provides means you also can't really mod them or convert to Classic Rebirth. WITH Classic Rebirth you can add quick turns to 1&2, the best FMV versions for all 3, bug fixes, etc, but by default 2 and 3 without mods are "okay".
>>736200517>>736200595Jesus, Crapcom is dogshit
>>736198745>add drm to game that was relesed on gog with no drmjust pirate the fuckers deserve it
>>736201079Pardon my ignorance, never heard about this.Thia is a better version than GC?
>i boughetered on GOG
>>736200316that would be Dragon Quarter
>>736201027The game and the english translation patch right at the top of the page both from a single google search.
>>736201140Oh, so the GOG version has mods that can actually enhance the game?That is cool, than you anon, going to try those.
>>736201196Theres mods that convert Gog ports into source next port. So you did fine
>>736201196Don't feel too bad silly frog poster. That's the second worst PC version which is still a fine version. The worst is the Steam releases with DRM, then the GoG versions, then the Sourcenext versions.
>>736200237I mean, Konami did MGS ports so maybe they actually will.It might help that SH1-3 have PC ports already
Genuine question.Is there a SourceNext equivalent to Dino Crisis or is the GOG version genuinely better unlike these ports?
>>736201258I was just being a cunt and wanted someone to just directly link to it in the thread and was too lazy to bother myself. I'm having a drink I apologize.
>>736201185They don't have the upscaling so backgrounds are low res, but they do have mods that add a lot of features like uncensored FMVs.Look up Classic REbirth
>>736201185Mediakite for 1 and Sourcenext for 2 and 3 if you want to use mods like Classic Rebirth. Otherwise GameCube is also completely fine.
is the only advantage of these PC ports no load times between doors and no delay between camera switches?
>>736201330sh1 never had a pc port
>>736201335Yes actually
>>736201395Heres all the options you get
>>736201395the advantage is that you can play on pc
wtf. do they all run ok? which version of the soundtrack does re1 have?
>>736201335Dino Crisis 1 & 2 both have SourceNext versions.
>>736200082>on a 25+ year old gameOk, I'm buying the gog version just for that.>>736201258>spoon-feeding someone who's literally too retarded to google.
>>736201401Sorry, I meant 2-4 instead of 1-3
>>736201431>remove doors>the dogs just kill you in the intro
Wait so can you use Classic REbirth with these or no?
>>736201469>buyingjust pirate
>re3 2020 is cheaper LMAO. shameful remake.
>>736200454Umbrella's been working with the US government, which is where the big bucks are.Besides, it isn't a bioWEAPON if it isn't being used as a weapon ya retard
>>736201502No. You need the sourcenext ports for that. They'e on the internet archive.
>>736201376>>736201383Thank you very much, anons, sorry for asking to be spoonfed, I always played on consoles and just migrated to PC, was blown away with the RE4HD Project and RE5 at 4k and unlocked frame rate.Gonna go after these ones for sure.
>>736201431Does the rendering fix stop the graphics from constantly wobbling like they are melting at all times? I know the GC port didn’t have this problem. I don’t think the DC has this problem, but the PC version did.
>It's realI thought it was /v/ gaslighting me for a momentBut aren't they like super old W95 games that rely on CD Projekt Red homecooked hack to fix?
>>736201442>which version of the soundtrack does re1 have?the best one ofc
>>736199772GOG versions can be modded, though?
Seems like Classic REbirth works but you have to put shit in the Japanese folder.
>>736201925Care to expand? I thought the GoG and Steam versions can't use the fan mods/patches and now you're saying they do? Does anyone know the truth?
>>736201116SOVL
>>736199772Resident Evil 1 in particular uses Mediakite port instead of Sourcenext which is broken on AMD GPU.Unmodded GoG RE1 is unfortunately the best way to play.
>>736201749I never noticed any wobbling.
>>736198745Just broughted it, thanks!
OH BARRY
>>736201761these are the GoG versions put up on steam
>>736201925>in the japanese folderOh. So that's why the install size is bloated, they just bundled releases into one big thing with no choice for pick, huh?>>736202021GOG defaults to the North American release, but you can region change it to Japanese, which is compatible with the Classic Rebirth stuff and a little bit of patching.
>>736201431>favorable RNGthis is related to the magnum/grenade launcher at RPD I assume
Since it's a retro RE threadShould I play Code Veronica first before Code Veronica X? I heard the Dreamcast release had some spooky fog effects like SH2 that's missing from the other ones. I also heard there's some Japanese only CVX Dreamcast version or something, what's up with that?
>>736202021I am still figuring it out lol but that's what a dude on the Steam forum is saying.Wait a few days and people will start making guides.
>Enigma DRMAlready have the pirated Sourcenext versions Capcunt fuck yourself
>>736202057Well, where did this picture originated from, anon?
I don't care, it's cool getting these old ass games on Steam, the more ways to play them the better, also buying them sends a message to Capcom that people indeed still love these games
>>736202130The Dreamcast version is missing some Wesker stuff. I think. I don't know much about visual differences I would assume the DC version isn't as good looking but I dunno.
How did boomers figure out RE1?At least RE2 railroads you to a certain location.
>>736202130steve has a different haircut
>>736202130From my understanding the only major differences are cosmetic and adding/changing some Wesker cutscenes.
>>736201335Yes, they also have Rebirth versions by the same people that did the RE HD mods.https://classicrebirth.com/index.php/dino-crisis-classic-rebirth/https://classicrebirth.com/index.php/dino-crisis-2-classic-rebirth/
>>736202206Dreamcast version has a completely different cutscene for Wesker vs Alexia fight. I won't spoil it, it's much funnier
>>736198745Yeah no one is buying any of these tankslops. Now /v/ can finally shut the fuck up about capcom not releasing the originals because these games will be more popular than the remakes because they're "better".
>>736202130CVX gives you more ammo and made some health changes but I never the knew the exact changes.
>>736202118Not him but IIRC, it makes all the puzzle solutions fixed so it's the same solution every time. Don't think it affects the gun placements as speedrunners have a seperate mod for that.
>No bundle/collection >Have to buy each separately>Russki DRM>Can't mod itIs Capcom stupid?
>>736202032>Unmodded GoG RE1 is unfortunately the best way to play.Better than emulation?
>>736202340No mods might be fake news, it's still early.
>>736202118One of the puzzle has different password depending on RNG but the solution is in the same fucking room so I'm not sure why Capcom added such pointless RNG.
>>736202169My wallet
>>736202130Just play CVX, it's the exact same game with more cutscenes (and Steve doesn't look like Leo Dicaprio).
>>736202353Skipping door animation and having uncensored cutscenes ootb is nice
>>736202130CVX on the GameCube is what people usually recommend.
JUSTTAKE A LOOK AT THIS
>no achievementsworthless
>>736202214RE1 was really not that difficult.
>>736201209nah
>>736198745i've already emulated them for free >>736200454chimeras still scare the hell out of me to this dayfucking hate those bugmen
>>736199609You forgot>Enigma DRM
>>736202593The trick with classic RE is to always check non-zombie corpses, you get a shitton of ammo that way.
>Incorporates 3rd-party DRM: The Enigma Protector IT'S A FUCKING ROM
>>736202130CVX had a bunch of small changes done to items, like some files being moved to more obvious spots. There's also stuff like the addition of more Wesker cutscenes, the existing Wesker cutscenes being changed (there's more than just the Alexia fight the other anon mentioned, although some of it is just dialogue so Wesker gives off a more "imposing" vibe), and Steve having a different haircut because there was some sorta controversy about him looking too much like Leonardo DiCaprio or something.If you want to play the original CV as a curiosity then all the power to you, I'm not actually sure about the effects like the fog being removed from CVX. It's worth mentioning that CVX did have a Dreamcast release which was JP only, although an English patch exists. This might preserve whatever effects you're talking about, since it's possibly just a console port issue rather than a CVX issue.
>>736202789>IT'S A FUCKING ROMFor the 500th time, these are the PC versions. Native PC.
I've never played these games outside of RetroarchHow hard is it to set up CRT shaders with the PC ports? I really like the Mega Bezel CRT shader pack and I can't imagine playing these games without it, can I use it on these ports?
>>736199001Soon it will be>Resident Evil>Resident Evil (2002)>Resident Evil (1996)
>>736202130You can get the DC version of CVX in English working totally fine if you want (and those SD card drive replacements even got a firmware fix to fix the timing issue with one of the last puzzles).Don’t bother with CV regular. Just play CVX.
just play the superior remakes
>>736198745I just bought them on GOG last week
>>736200549that's the DRM
>>736202964I'm eagerly awaiting the Deadly Silence re-release so we can bump that up to 4
>>736202593I completely ran out of ammo by the time I reached Tyrant phase 2.I was lucky that I didn't get softlock because of that.
>>736202939Oh, okay. I love DRM now.
Is this a joke?
>>736202978RE1 > REmakeRE2 < RE2makeRE3 >>> RE3make
So I bought them and one thing I noticed is that the FMVs run lower than 10 FPS, it looks so fucking bad compared to duckstation, refunded after 3 minutes
>>736203158>RE2make>no A/B
>>736203182Yeah, the original PC ports are absolutely dogshit for FMV quality, probably due to codecs in the 90s being kind of a shit thing to have to deal with for the time on Windows hardware but I wouldn't really know for sure. Consoles didn't have to worry about that. It's why most people say you really need CR because you get the best quality FMVs without modded enhancers on top.
>>736201330Didn't Konami lose the source code of the original SH trilogy?
>>736203221Zapping system is overrated>play the same game four times with 95% the same contentWowew
>>736198745Resident Evil is a bad franchise though
>>736201196>buy Diablo 2 on Shitzzard>releases in steam a few months after
>>736203109you VILL use the winslop 11 and you VILL like it
>>736203158RE Director's Cut > RE Deadly Silence > RE96 PC > RE96 Saturn > RE96 PSX >>>> RE Dual Shock
>>736201283>The worst is the Steam releases with DRMCorrect me if I'm wrong but I'm pretty sure Enigma DRM is also on the GoG version.All the DRM does is preventing modding which doesn't really go against the "game preservation" motto.
>>736203573The entire point of GOG is, outside of a couple exceptions that are infamous in their own right, they're DRM free, with patches and fixes being supplementary to re-releasing old games without any bullshit on top. That's outright part of their mission statement and tagline.
