Why is Code Veronica largely considered the start of Resident Evil's decline?
>>12601185It’s not. People were even willing to cut 5 some slack since the coop was so good. 6 is the universally hated one but it’s getting the whole “was it really that bad” after Requiem came out and made all the retro REs and 5-6 look like works of art compared to it. Someone even linked the metacritic of the non x version of code Veronica and it was pretty beloved. Nice bait tho. Also Code Veronica is pretty awesome, the game actually really leans into the camp of the OGs which, while I do love re1 remake, is missing a lot of. But this is probably a bait thread. If you were around during this time it was pretty hyped up and also people like Matrix Wesker and the goofy villain which is problematic these days so they will probably take great liberties w the remake if it gets remade at all.
>>12601196Requiem got great reviews, what are you talking about? /v/ will shit on anything new so you can’t really trust that small bubble of shitposting.
>>12601196Alfred isn’t trans. He has a split personality in an obviously nod to Norman Bates.
>>12601196>CV was not hated!!!!>but 6 is the universally hated one, reddit told me so!!!kek, what a fucking drone
>>12601185Its when the over the top anime bullshit started and the series has never recovered from it since
>>12602036RE6 is pretty indefensible overall. So much of it is an absolute slog to play, especially Chris’s campaign. Great Mercenaries mode in that one however.
>>126020696 is better than 5/7/8/9CV is worse than every other classic RE game, even Zero (with the inventory mod) mogs CV
>>12602078>6 is better than 5/7/8/9I think you’re going to be pretty alone on the island with that take lol
>>12601185It was developed by a third party which took all the surface elements of classic resident evils but didn't know how to assemble them to make an enjoyable game. Plus the switch from simple, campy b-movie horror about zombies and bio weapons in a small midwestern town to anime, matrix, fantasy bullshit was catastrophic.
>>12602169This is what I think as well. Sort of like how the Capcom developed 2D Zelda games feel just a little off even though they’re good games.
>>12602170>Capcom developed 2D Zelda gamesI didn't even know those were a thing.
>>12602178Yeah, Oracle of Ages/Seasons and Minish Cap were jointly made with Capcom.
>>12601204>Requiem got great reviews>these flies really like swarming around this pile of shit>must be the tastiest thing ever.
>>12602254Yeah, yeah. We get that /v/ is naturally going to be contrarian to the surprise of no one.
