What went so right with Resident Evil?
They are fun.
>>740991864>RE3make>"went right"I disagree.
>>740991864They're consistently good. Only Code Veronica is garbage but even that has the good parts that define the series— an incredible sense of progression with good puzzles. It makes no sense that anyone would find themselves in the situation of the protagonists of Resident Evil with the puzzles and so the individual games have bad world building but the series as a while is creating an incredible lore.
>>740991864made for npc's >5-10 hours long, remakes, you can play them with a hand behind your back, hot male/female, so many cutscenes(requiem is like less than 10 hours and has almost 4 hours of cutscenes)but i guess is fine because muh Japan
Village and 3R are trash, half of Requiem sucks, the rest is good
Literally, and I mean literally, only 2 & 4 are good games out of this list. And they're just remakes.
>>740991864The only game of note here is RE4 remake, and it isn't even better than the original.
>>740992117The original games were not that long only 4 is long re9 is longer then most others
>>740991864kill all ball and gun fags
>>7409920623make is fine. It's a fun thrill ride. I've never heard anyone say 3 is their fave RE so it make sense they treated it as an expansion to 2.
>>740991864literally nothing, everything since 5 has been garbage. luckily capcom doesn't give a fuck about the originals and they can never take them away
>>7409918647 should have been a different franchise
>4 fucking remakes in 10 yearsThis franchise has stagnated. RE7 is the only new game with any value, and I say this as someone who finds it very meh.
>>740991864Goycattle.
>>740993091100%. It would’ve been far more enjoyable that way.
>>740991864Weirdly taking it back to the roots despite the first-person perspective shift. People forget RE7 was damn divisive.
>>740993091I disagree I think RE7 serves a very important purpose in the franchise as lorewise it shows the impact of bioterrorism on the average family and gameplay wise its the first time and only time they really brought back RE1's pacing and flow, also the first time in a while (since RE0) they brought back the classic gameplay and inventory management. People who believe it isnt a true RE game just because of the camera perspecrtive are actual retardsWith that said I do think the RE7/RE9 team would be perfectly suited to developing a reboot of the Clock Tower franchise, and all of the cinematic flair and slow pacing issues frequently cited in their RE games would feel right at home for Clock Tower
I really like the remakes :)
>>740993220coming up with new ideas, characters, locations, gameplay completely from scratch is much harder than remaking existing concepts. its a miracle theyre able to do new games once every 4/5 years as it is. The remakes are fine because they offer a RE gameplay experience inbetween the major games and allow capcom to have a healthy game output every one to two years
Capcom benefits primarily by pulling off a really obscure trick called actually releasing games, something most other big publishers simply have not figured out how to do yet
>>740992087you think RE0, RE6 and revelations 1 are better than code veronica? lol code veronica is a super solid game and most complaints attributed to it are utter nonsense
>>740993387they would have had more creative freedom instead of forcing chris
>>740991864>What went so right with Resident Evil?Men and women both like the games. Playable characters are attractive and cool.
>>740993549take Chris out and you still have a game that for most of its runtime plays like classic RE, callng it RE7 is not inappropriate
>>740992117Cutscenes is a Requiem problem only, everything else is perfect.
>>740991864RE2 Remake and RE4 Remake. Everything else in that picture is kinda meh.
>>740993674>callng it RE7 is not inappropriateyeah i know, 8 might have had a chance that way too
>>740993719RE7 too
>>740993220I'd say if they weren't releasing new games as well. It's clear the remakes are filling in year gaps. RE4 was the crazy exception because it's fucking RE4.
Do you think we will ever get a real re3 remake or maybe a 2 and 3 hd remaster like re1 that would be amazing
>>740993901RE7 did THAT poorly?
>>740994163Re7 is bad
>>740991864Truly 4 was Ada game, I can't wait for the remake of 6 and for them to change so much
>>740994140maybe when we are dead there will be some team that does that. but i don't think in our lifetime we will get that. they fuck jill at every point. she was only cool in re1 and re3, and then every game after that she gets dogwalked for no reason. frustrating. at least they didn't do it to claire>>740994857now this seems maybe only three years away with their current pace
>>740993534It's because cv was Dreamcast exclusive nintendies spent a lot of time doomposting itNotice how much they shilled re zero when that one is MUCH worse
>>740991864It's slop for the lowest common denominator, it's the McDonald's of video games.
>>740995419Keep seething zeldajeet
>>740991864Literally nothing. These games all suck and are worse than the originals. The only reason people like RE2R and RE4R is because the original games were so good a lot of that greatness naturally bled through into the remakes. nuCapcom is overrated and the RE engine sucks.
>>740995943re2 and re2r are completely different games in everything but overall concept and story, so the remake must be doing something right little contrarian bitch
7 is the only decent resident evil from REengine. The rest are remakes for cattle. 8 is just a big 4 reference. 8 is 4 but gay. 9 is a re1remake reference (mansion, lisa in the basement, flooding in the other building, crimson heads) and then a re2remake reference. They have no ideas 9 was probably made by ai. I'm just waiting for the 6 remake, the grand finale of the franchise. I hate re8 so much it's unreal.
>>740993479>The remakes are fine because [total kikeslave reasoning]
>>740991864It's a soap opera for women. I can't imagine a man playing this slop.
>>740996908MMMMMM YESSSS DADDY SONY I LOOOOOOVE WAITING FIVE YEARS FOR THE NEXT GOD OF WAR MOVIEGAME SLOP, MMMMMMMMM YESSSSSSS DELAY ME HARDER DADDY!!!
People have forgotten how embarrassing of a franchise it was before re7 literally was looking like a dead IP
>>740997241re6 is getting the same contrarian revisionism as the star wars prequels
>>740991864fuck village its the worst recent re
>>740997307village is a 7/10 on a good day but theres still something about it that compels me to play it every year and a half
>>740994163no goonerbait waifu (zoe wasn't marketed well)
>>740997358It’s fun to play on village of shadows until you get to the Heisenberg boss which is probably one of the worst resident evil boss experiences on the super hard difficulty
>revThey really will remake REV2 aren't they? Plotwise is more important than rev1 and claire seems to got attention back
>>740997424dont read too much into the RE:V abbreviation, it mostly just exists so the Japanese title Biohazard RE:Veronica can look neat and tidyat most "RE:V" is a sublte reference to it being the fifth remake and also to CV kind of being the first unoffical "Revelations" game since it is important to the lore but didnt have a number
>>740997420i hate NG+ modes where you alraedy have all weapons unlocked and my understanding is you NEED that to beat Village of Shadows so I still havent touched that difficulty even once
This guy >>740997118 needs CONTENT made in the current year or he'll kill himself.
>>740997674It’s possible to do village of shadows new game plus on a first playthrough I’ve never played the mode on a fresh save file
RE7>RE2>RE1>RE4>RE8
