      @@baronvonslambert Technically I'd say REmake looks better than RE4 despite being the same age even with the fantastic HD project retexture by Chris and Albert (yes that's the modders actual names it's awesome) it kinda makes me wish someone would try the same idea now with modern tech cause you could probably get full on photo real with it like have a photo real looking background with baked lighting then have a super simplified 3d model underneath that gets a ray tracing path that effects any non static props and the character model which would also be as photo real as possible.
      Considering how real games are looking with fully rendered 3d environments just imagine how good the prerendered idea could look now.

    Everything from the original was in the 2002 remake. They changed lots of things, but every enemy, item, puzzle, sequence, note was there, and many other stuffs added that made the game better.
    I wished they'd kept that philosophy for the RE2 and RE3 remakes where, sadly, too many things were thrown away from the originals...

    I dont think 60 frames per second makes a better game. But what DOES impress me the most is the level of absurd detail in REmake. For example run out of ammo and get close to the camera like in a save room with a close up overhead view. You can see the slide of the pistol locked back and the actual inside of the barrel modeled. I was blown away.

      @@Walamonga1313 I can respect that. But no matter how popular 60 is now, it’s still subjective. Single player games for me are better at 30fps, especially when it’s a cinematic story telling type (closer to cinema standards 24 but 30 is good for these kinds of games). EDIT: 30fps done right with frame pacing. Spider-man PS4 and FFVII Remake are great examples of that.

      Dreamlike is a pretty good word to describe RE1's atmosphere, I find. I do enjoy it on it's own merits.

I am sure they were, just interesting to see someone else mention it.

      It also fits narratively rather well. The entire mansion is a front, not a real lived environment, so it makes sense if it feels sterile or somehow souless. If depicted that way, it works as environmental foreshadowing, like "something isn't right here, and I am not talking about the weird puzzle lock mechanisms and the strange undead creatures, there is even more hidden" vibe, which is exactly the case.

    The most wonderful thing about this remake is that it's absolutely not reductive to the original at all, unless you count the cheese. RE3 being retooled into a linear AAAish modern game experience while getting rid of it's iconic features (live selection, the clock tower) rubbed me the really wrong way, but here they didn't remove a thing but expanded (and shuffled) almost everything that was in the original while also becoming a unique experience on its own, not just the same RE1 but with prettier backdrops.

    I disagree with the notion that REmake replaces the original RE1. I think it's on the same realm as something like Yakuza 0, as in it being a prequel, with a ton of nods to the rest of the series than an actual starting point. The original RE1 may be the same story, but it actually plays out different enough that makes it worth experiencing as well, and its version of the story is what the sequels actually build on. I think REmake is the superior game, but in no way it means it's THE one anyone should play. I think both of them are worth experiencing all the same.

    To be fair about Remake and it's sales, RE4 didn't have all that good of sales either... when they were both Gamecube Exclusives.
    For the Gamecube, the Remake sold for 1,350,000; For RE4, it was 1,600,000. The difference between one and another for Gamecube Exclusives is that RE4 sold just above 250,000, but nonetheless were overall pretty close to one another as a whole. The reason why RE4 was so successful was because someone outside of Shinji Mikami decided to export it OUT of Gamecube, yet did not give that same treatment to any of the other Gamecube Exclusive RE games, thus damning them. It did not help that Resident Evil as a whole was generally considered more of a Playstation game, and for some reason Shinji Mikami somewhat 'alienated' a lot of former fans of the games by having a lot of the numbered/sequel games be left on the Gamecube, whilst the PS2 generally got what other's considered 'leftovers', whether that is true or not.
    To put into perspective, RE4 sold 2,300,000 on the Playstation 2. Not only did it inflate and increase the sales already brought in by the Gamecube, but it also sold way more than its gamecube variant by 700,000, more than twice the difference between the Remake and RE4 when they were both former Gamecube Exclusives. This wasn't a choice by Shinji Mikami BTW, as he for some reason hated the playstation... to the point he quit his job when it happened. Which you can take that as you will.

    Glad you like Remake. It is still my favorite RE game in the franchise. Gonna add something you might not have known(or maybe you do) and mention how I feel about 2 Remake.
    For the little bit of info you might not have known, I believe another way to deal with zombies in this game besides shooting off the head or burning is to shoot of one of their legs. Something I believe is rare, but possible from the stairs.
    Now a little bit of my perspective on 2 Remake if anyone wants to read it: I saw the announcement image of the Resident Evil 2 Remake back before I moved out of my homestate at least 5 to 6 years ago. Knowing what all Remake 1 did with preservation and improvement and knowing about Original Resident Evil 2's complicated development story made feel like the sky was the limit. I felt we could possibly see a little unlockable Elza Walker mode, or maybe even a nod to some of the content that was originally meant to be. Looking back now, this was unrealistic expectations. I still love 2 Remake as a game, but feel it falls flat on its face a little as a remake. The removal of the Crows and Spiders still confuses me to this day when in Remake 1 they were happy to not only keep those 2 enemies, but even keep and improve the sharks. Also I feel 2 remake missed opportunity of Claire and Leon not being able to communicate with each other throughout the story. I also miss the subtle creepiness of Chief Irons in the original.

They remove crows and Spiders that were very iconic, and worst of all a true B scenario. In B they not only change the Re2 layout but added more cutscenes and actual point of view of the other character. You can even leave some weapons and ammo for the B scenario. For all the tech we have, Capcom really didn't want to jump the shark.

    RE 1 remake is the perfect example of how to remake of a resident game. Sorely because nothing was cut, more was added to the story to extend it, new mechanics, graphics were updated, gameplay and controls were modernized to be less clunkly.
    This game came out in 2002 and was remastered in 2015 (yes this is a HD remaster of the 2002 GC version to be avaliable to more modern consoles but the main game is still a remake of the original) . Yet it still looks insane how well the graphics hold up, it still has that creepy atmosphere and is true survival horror. it doesn't try to hold your hand or hint what your objective is. The game forces you to think for yourself and that's also one of it's charms. Even if you aren't a great fan of tank controls, I would recommend this game.

    The initial bad reception on Gamecube was definitely franchise fatigue. Resident Evil games had mostly been same-ish since the original on PS1. RE4 proves that the "more mature" audience was there on Gamecube, but they were waiting for a title that really shook things up. I remember getting Gamecube just because Resident Evil became Nintendo exclusive at the time. There was no talk about ports on other consoles. RE was supposed to be exclusive to Gamecube. I think bad sales got Capcom out of the deal or something along those lines.
    I recommend checking out Resident Evil Outbreak games if you haven't yet. I think those games perfected the classic RE gameplay. Their stories and overall structure might not be as solid since they were meant to be played in episodes, but they are the true survival horror experience imo, even more so than REmake.

    16:31 The idea that one character is harder than the other is somewhat subjective. I did a run through with Chris on REmake for the first time in years, remembering him as the harder character. But I discovered that his advantages do outweigh the negatives and by the end of my play through I felt like Chris was easier than Jill. Chris has a number of advantages. For one, he can take considerably more damage than Jill which can be especially helpful during boss fights. Second, he readies his firearm faster than Jill which may seem like a small thing but when you compare the two, it feels like Jill takes forever to raise her gun compared to Chris, making it easier for Chris to shoot and run with higher reaction times - this is most noticeable when you watch Jill try to lift the rocket launcher. Chris may have a limited arsenal but he gets an ass load of shotgun rounds which is one of the best weapons in the game. Having limited weapons actually means less need for inventory slots. I would often only carry the shotgun in my inventory, sometimes even during boss fights like the snake. You can even get away with only carrying the loaded shotgun while not carrying extra ammo during the less dangerous parts of the game, freeing another slot.

  • @jetnipatteeravithayapinyo2468

    you mentioned that the dog hallway's windows don't break immediately and instead break later, but that's not the case. the window cracks when you first enter, then when you go through the hallway the other way (enter through east wing, walk through, exit by main hall), the dogs get in. if you play it smart and use it as a one-way hallway, you can go through the whole game without encountering them.
    also, the jill sandwich scene only plays in the remake if you try to get the shotgun before the cutscene where barry gives you the acid rounds (and you interact with both doors)

It is the best remake & acts as the best chance for anybody who's played the newer games to go back to the older style as it does it so well. RE2 remake is good but it doesn't make many want to play the originals as its too modern if it was like RE1 remake this might be different. But I really don't like all these remakes being made we should have the Capcom teams working on newer side games instead of remaking games that don't need them the only exceptions being RE0 & RE code Veronica but the rest past 4 can't be remade because they aren't bad they aren't in need of a remake & they work best where they are. A more horror form of 5 & 6 doesn't really work as they are designed for another style of game.

This was the worst possible console for the game in terms of potential sales.

      As long as you go in knowing they cut a load of content re3make is great to play, short but sweet i thought, good replayability as well

    I thought Resident Evil 1 remake and 0 were awesome when they came out. They still look really good which is a real feat of the designers.

    Mad how it's 2 decades and it still looks gorgeous. Never thought the gamecube was that powerful

    There was one thing that the REmake lost from the original in that there were a little less branching paths for the characters but the amount that it _gained_ over the original was so vast that it blows this slight niggle out of the water. The RE2 remake however lost so much from its original game that it was _really_ noticeable despite its gains (and for some reason removed all references to RE1 as well). Then the RE3 remake didn't even try to be faithful.
    I tell a lie, there was one other thing missing from RE1's remake - interesting closing titles. The original's were fun and rewarding, the remake's were generic and dull.

      People inflate RE1remake while conveniently dismissing changes/cuts that was brought forth.
      Re1remake changed/removed the following;
      Script, the infamous Jill sandwich line was butchered and all the original script/dialogue was thrown out
      Characters; while the remake opted for a grounded take, it fails in what it sets out to accomplish. The characters have cardboard cutout personalities and don't react accordingly to the horrors unfolding around them. Even worse is Rebecca's inconsistent portrayal between the events of 0 and the time she wound up in the mansion with RE1
      Story; no effort was made to diversify the campaigns between Chris and Jill, instead we have a rehashing mirrored stories in which both sides play out identically. This raises the issue of true canon, which side actually occured? Because both overlap incoherently. Furthermore the remake failed to include the true canonical ending with all 4 STARS members escape the mansion via helipad. This omission with no attempt to rectify is confounding.
      I've aforementioned the choice system presented in the original was simplified to merely 1 decision in the remake. Why? Baffling design choice.
      Shotgun; the 100% headshot decapitations was removed in the remake and instead randomised
      Aesthetic/tone; gone are the days of the brightly lit, homely, inhibited halls of the mansion in favour of... Drumroll... The Mickey mouses haunted house aesthetic in the remake. Such a drastic change didn't hit the mark and ditches the tone established in the original.
      Sadly the remake seems to avoid any critique or fans alike dismiss any and all genuine downgrades. It shouldn't be exempt/free from points of contention.

    I absolutely loved this game when it released. I had played the original when I was young, like 10 (?) years old and played it with my younger brither watching and we had a blast. When Remake came out it was everything I wanted from the original and thensome. I recall a lot of people complaining about tank controls but to me its thise controls that make the limited gameplay much more engaging. Then Remake comes and makes the pre-rendered backgrounds absolutely stunning, it's so good! It's a shame that back then too many people wouldn't give it a chance.
    I would have preferred RE2RE and RE3RE get THIS treatment, but at least for RE2RE it's still a very good game despite scenario B getting butchered. RE3RE had a lot going for it but... RE3 is actually a better experience imho

      Quit lying. You didn’t play this game as a kid. You played it later as a teen or adult. Roughly 80-90% who claimed to have played games like these when they were kids are lying. And nothing you say will convince me otherwise.

    Yes and it is the best in the series. Improves everything and adds so much more.

    As a new RE fan, it’s so freaking confusing how they don’t label titles as “remake.” I had no idea that the RE1 on switch was a remake, and I probably would have bought it sooner if I had.

    If you explore too much of the mansion you'll miss the window for Barry to help you when you are locked in the room with the falling ceiling.

    Just got the Platinum on the Remake. And you're right, if you try to open both doors wnhen you take the shotgun Barry saves you.

  • @bert98deer

    the falling ceiling when you get the shotgun, you trigger the cut scene by interacting with the two doors. Played it on the switch and when i did this, the cut scene triggered. I didn't even know you could get squished tbh.

    Honestly, my main issue with Remakes, any remake, even good ones like this, is the absence of the original's as ports, feels like more and more emulation is the only way to go back and check them out, i don't think an RE Collection would be that hard to pull off, sure it wouldn't be as interesting as Deadly Silence which is just RE1 + QoL gameplay additions, but it's something, i'd gladly pay for it, and i think a lot of other people would too.
    But yeah, Remake is just a masterpiece, it is peak RE, and probably like, a perfect game, which sounds like overhyping it, but its just a perfect game, it does everything it wants to do perfectly and then it ends, its like, flawless and the way the backgrounds are and even the stylization the humans have (not entirely going for realistic but fitting the background enough) makes it somehow kinda timeless? Its been a while and nothing about it jumps out as ''oh this looks shit'' or ''oh this aspect looks better than that'', and that's weird for a semi-real 3D game, usually timeless stuff is overly stylized stuff like Wind Waker, idkw RE and RE0 (Even if i don't like it) are visually timeless and still impresses a bit.
    (resposted this a bunch cause i was having trouble with Google/UA-cam stuff, yep still i am, dunno why its getting my name wrong, thanks google)

    5:08 The Wii version supports the GameCube controller (and if you emulate you can pick any controller you want) and it has 60fps too while having the original backgrounds. I am emulating it using Dolphin, and it noticeably has a better framerate than emulating the GameCube version with the same settings, so it is not because of overclocking. Also it is one disc rather than two so no switching when you get to the lab.
    Also the HD Remaster nerfed the grenade launcher firing distance.
    The reason for the poor AI upscaled backgrounds (that is not present in RE Zero) is because they lost the source files for the backgrounds for this game.
    Some music tracks in HD Remaster are too fast but that can be patched with a mod, and there also is the HD Project redoing the upscaled backgrounds since AI upscaling has come a long way since 2014, kind of similar to what happened between 5th and 6th generation consoles.
