50:09 The way the Tyrant stops dead in his tracks as the rocket barrels towards him always gets me. They even show three angles of the guy rethinking his very few life choices.
From horror film to action flick in 3 seconds😂
The Jill sandwich era
Does Barry tell everyone that story?
Jill: I´m a member of STARS...
Nemy: mmm Stars?
The DS version of RE1 is the definitive version of the original for me.
Quick turn, auto aim, knife no longer takes inventory space, and you can skip cutscenes and even the door animations.
Plus it has rebirth mode, where you get to blow candles through the mic, and a whole new set of puzzles that were not in the original mode.
and you can tab jills butt and chris hair!
And looks like shit
The FMV are too compressed for me compared to the PS1 original. Those additions definitely make the DS game more modern to play now though.
@@omadeli the re1 remake is probably the best
"Chicken-Heart? More like Chicken-Shit!"
Chicken-wuss...
Zell disliked this.
!WHAT DID YA CALL ME?!?!?
Based clement still going strong after all these years
You're also based for having Gale from Shin Megami Tensei Digital Devil Saga as your avatar :D.
you said it
Yep
You actually have enough ammo in re 1 to kill all the enemies in the game, but you need not only to understand the game enemies but to plan ahead with your choosen run.
That live action footage in woods used to give me nightmares boyyyy
This mansion is full of zombies! How can you stand there playing Beethoven!?
He said he was fine by himself! He said a child like me would only slow him down!
Forget you!!! 😂
Fun fact: jils backstory includes her being an ex green beret
To this day there has Never been a female green beret, no woman ever managed to pass the test
So to have her be a former member of the elite of the elite in the us military, in a position no woman before or since has ever been, shows as to how shes able to go through all these games doesnt it?
Delta Force. Not Green Beret.
But you're right. Jill is actually really badass.
Don't open that door!
Actully with Chris all you have to do is go to the main hall and then go back. Recebba will always play the piano.
It is kind of funny that in hindsight she is most experienced person there...
28:02 A legendary line was born.
Later, we'd have Resident Evil 4 rat.
@@Gaia_BentosZX5 Where's everyone going? Bingo?
Loved the Final Fantasy series you did. FF is my second favorite series. Resident Evil is my all time favorite
That makes 2 of us, friend.
My favorite part of MegaMan X7 was when Red asked Axl if he had a Jill Sandwich
Or if you look out in the mall in the first Dead Rising there's a restaurant called Jill's Sandwiches.
@@yatsey007The restaurant's description in the map even calls her a "master of sandwich-making" LOL
apparently the original actors were given lines but had no idea what thee context was so they did multiple takes. the scouting agents at capcom spliced the lines together but didn't speak much English. In Japanese markets most buyers didn't notice because English wasn't their native tongue but it sounded strange to English's speaking markets.
That completely matches the way it sounds imo - like native English speakers reading lines without context, which were then spliced together and assembled by non native-English speakers. The whole thing has this uncanny sound, because the pronunciation, accents etc. are perfect, but the intonation, cadences etc. are all wrong.
@@GuyDude-hk8uy the script itself is very poor too. Japanese version contains the original script of the game in the form of subtitles, and people have found many mistranslations comparing the two.
Yeah the OG actors were VERY confused with the script and had zero direction. Feel bad for them but hey, the game did well lol
Brad Vickers gets a lot of hate but didn’t he fly around the mansion for hours, risking his fuel, to make sure his friends had an escape? As their only pilot, he’s super valuable to the team. Now if he dipped back to home base and never came back THEN I’d get the hate lol
“B.O.Ws or Bio Organic Weapons for short”
Might want to reverse that Clement 😆
Fantastic video as always clement!!! ❤💜
Believe it or not, this game was scary AF back then
those slow and erratic steps with moans... claiming your body...
I was freaked out by RE2 when it came out, so I can attest to RE being scary AF.
Naw man. Two was scary as shit back in the day. The moment I seen a licker for the first time run pass the mirror. I froze. Lmao.
My first experience was with RE1 remake. And it is a masterpiece
First played RE in 1998 on the PS 1 Resident Evil: Directors Cut. Since then it’s been my all time favorite gaming franchise. It’s amazing to see how much it’s grown and to see so many others who like it too. RE will not be stopping any time soon. And that’s a good thing.
Always glad to watch more Clement!
Never get tired of your vids!
I've been waiting for this one, so glad its' finally out!
Good discussion man keep up the good work
Man, you sure know how to describe your experience with these games and the story in a entertaining and compelling way. I’m curious to see you tackle other series this way.
Man, is the campiness of that game fun to watch. It can be hard to believe at times that this horror series started that way. If another remake were to happen someday I’m weirdly hoping it has an option that can keep the campiness.
Awesome video Clement!
I know I'm late to the party but you've absolutely got my sub, I'm loving these videos i don't think I've found a channel that's more entertaining as far as games go keep up the good work man
Fantastic vid as always
The credits theme sounds like Emerald Coast from Sonic Adventure 1
Sa1 was released 1998
44:52 no it's literally the herbs you were just talking about. They don't just heal you, they fight infections.
Mate, you are an amazing content creator
I have watched your videos multiple times think they are very well thorough
Keep up the good work man
Great Review! THX!
You gotta cover them all man - this was friggin awesome as a longtime RE fan
I'd love to see you cover more of the re games. Amazing vid bro
Well done for all your hard work man! Bravo to you ;)
Another great vid!
My favorite game of all time. Thanks for the great video!
In the Saturn version, a zombie version of Wesker can be found and killed in the battle mode. So, yeah, it's safe to say that he wasn't planned for any of the sequels.
"No one in this universe has ever heard of a fucking keychain?"
dude, this deserve to many views! this was great!
My brother's and I got a ps1 for Christmas we each got a game, I got RE:1. I was the oldest Soni got to play my game first, and I put in Resident Evil and the TV powered on after the PS Logo and whatnot so the first image we saw was that intro cutscene... both my brothers shouted at me, "TV video! You gotta press TV video!!" And holding the controller I looked back at them and said I'm with WAY TOO MUCH seriousness, "It is on TV video," and we were all flabbergasted and hooked. It was an amazing Christmas morning, I think 7th grade maybe?...
The wait is finally over.🤩
I’m dead…”Oh also, there’s Joseph Frost (long pause) he definitely exists.” 😂😂😂
This is my favorite series ever. Well yeah Resident Evil, but I meant your Humble Beginnings series. ❤️ Looking forward to way more!
Most people don't know that the original Resident Evil from 1996 is actually a remake of a 1989 video game called Sweet Home. Yes, that's how deep this rabbit hole goes.
It was supposed to be a remake, but ended up being its own thing
13:07 Funny you bring up the Captain America comparison because both Chris and Cap were voiced by Roger Craig Smith for a few years.
It’s great to hear how much you’re enjoying the new format. Fantastic video as usual!
You did a great - Clement - job on this one..
Another banger video!
Pro tip: when using jill the first zombie can be evaded by going back where barry is then the cutscene will kills the zombie without using ammo or time
A Resi retrospective? You tease
Hello.🙂
Fun Fact: PS1 Resident Evil is a bit of a remake/reimagining of a horror rpg called Sweet Home.
Man it feels almost alien to look at original Resident evil and then compare it to what came afterwards. We went from very campy survivor horror to action movie levels of mission impossible with some zombies thrown in the later games then back to survival horror with 7 and then back again with action movie with 8. Although there is a charm to the campiness of the original OG game which thank God 4 remake kept a good chunk of its campiness from the original version of 4 even if a lot of it isn't completely there. It's just something you can't remove from Resident Evil no matter what. That said the best thing to come from this is the realization that Barry Burton's English voice actor is the same guy who voices red from Mega man X7. Oh and the Jill sandwich line never forget that line lol. Great job Clement!
The cerberus prop heads in the live action cutscenes look just like the mutant bear from Prophecy.
it is a fact that the director of the game was Japanese. which is why the dialog was how it was.
i will never understand people that don't like tank controls. they are very simple to learn.
42:09 didn't remember Ada being mentioned in the first game! amazing!
@42:16 Nice hidden Eggman logo. XD
Resident Evil 1 is just a 90s Sierra point-and-click adventure game but with limited inventory management and understandable methods of avoiding death.
Nope. Lol!!!
@@kevincollins8620 Yes lol! It's a game where you are solving environment and inventory puzzles to progress the plot while examining everything around you and picking up anything not nailed down. That's literally the core mechanics of 90s adventure games. The only difference is they place monsters and bosses in your way.
Clement does Resident Evil? Yes please ❤
RE1 Wesker: Chris? Stop it! :'(
RE5 Wesker: CHRIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSS!!!!!!
Cheesy dialogues and funny music aside, RE1 OG lore is and has always been good and dark and understandable.
sounds like chris is hard mode. and jill is easy mode.
working as intended.
Man, 1998... Those were the good ol' days.
good video!
Love your channel so much is there anyway you can play more classic NES and SNES games
As a kid of 90's - I really hope they re-remake this one
jesus. just remaking games. resident evil might as well be dead.
Honestly, I really wish for a second remake too...of RE2. I want me those fixed camera angle, the prerendered world, and beautiful clunky ass tank controls. I miss the old style of Resident Evil, with it's mix of sincerity and 80s/90s camp, and despite not having personally played a classis style RE game (my first one was the Wii version of RE4) until late last year (2022) or early this year (2023), it hooked me immediately. It (REmake) also freaked the pants off me, so, there's that. The modern remakes have never actually been horror games for me, not even the much lauded RE2 Remake, I've enjoyed (most of) them (some of the time), but for me they have more problems that bright spots. So I'd really love for RE2 and RE3 to get remakes in the classic style, the way that the original Resident Evil did back on the Gamecube, but with all the power modern machines can give...oh, and the old art styling, I really dislike the RE Engine faces, they're friggin ugly to me, too real.
Dr. Eggman at 42:16????????
Miss your walkthroughs Clement…please come back soon
We love Clement
Here’s hoping Silent Hill can follow suit
Ohhhh this is gonna be good.
Woah... this hall is dangerous!
Pleasant suprise new clement appearing in my feed 🙂
47:07 followed by Wesker pulling his pants down. There's no conspiracy. Wesker was acting all alone. He's just a dirty pervert.
0:27 RTS jumpscare. Never thought I'd see C&C footage in a clement video
The original Japanese version intro was uncut but it was still in black and white.
Ur head will flip if u watch Chris speed runs.
Clement needs to make a video on all Street fighter games like he did with tekken
Goldman, from House of the Dead, is my favorite voice acting ever😂
Hm-hm-hm-hm-hm!
WOW! WHAT A MANSION!
Hope you do LP's again
Man, your videos are so dang good. Love your content, always will!
I'm really hoping to see your video on Sonic Frontiers eventually.
I've got a shotgun.😅🤣😂
Don’t open that door!!!!!
🥳
Re1 directors cut was my favourite 😍
Well this was a fun video : )
yeah the cheesy 1st game, idk why it just works.
Thanks for sharing.
The biggest crime capcom commited in regards of the modern remakes is removing the inspect feature.
Like there was something charming about your character commenting on all the stuff in the environment. It made the world feel lived in.
39:56 Yeah, and pin all the blame on a hack named Mamoru Samuragochi...
You need to cover "No More Room In Hell".
Anyone noticed this is the 3rd game on this show in a row that ends with something exploding?
You have the makings of a UA-cam Poop, thinking it's time to get into that.
Hey didn't you do a Donkey Kong 64 let's play on your Channel?
aw shit its Clement
Always a good day when Clement uploads❤
I never knew that the word "humble" is a synonym to the word "awesome". Hmm.....
53:20 was it just me or was that Cammy fighting Wesker?
I knew a lot about resident evil, but I didn't know that Jill had long hair.
Sweet Home
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! So I'm not the only one who thinks Wesker was bitter about the Tyrant to his dying day! And I'm not the only one to say, "Still Dawn is the Emerald Coast theme, right?"
Regarding why zombie deaths are inconsistent, I heard that every bullet fired in RE1 is randomized to mimic enemies having varying levels of toughness, I guess without needing to program said toughness. If true, hopefully that's not disappointing to hear.
