      REmake 1 is so good! I never played the original RE1, but I have played REmake a bunch of times. It is my overall favourite Resident Evil game and one of my favourite games of all time. I give it a 10/10 without question!
      REmake 2 and 3 aren't really REmakes, but rather REinterpretations. Playing them is completely different from playing the originals and they can't be considered replacements. Both products are very different and different people will prefer different ones. However REmake 1 seems to have completely replaced or improved on everything from the original RE1, making it largely unnecessary to play the original unless you are nostalgic or curious. That's a true REmake. Pokemon Heart Gold & Soul Silver is another that jumps to mind.

    All I wanted out of REmake 2 & 3 were more games that were on par with the 1st remake. It's the pinnacle of this series: taking everything about the original game and refined it without compromises to gameplay. It thrusted you into that mansion to decide how to survive it. And that's what I find so offensive about REmake 2 & 3, their unwillingness to fully immerse players into the survivor role.
    Resident Evil, at it's best, is a game about player-driven decision making in a consequence-filled environment. It's a game that asks players to face the unknown with only a finite amount of healing items, ammo, inventory space, and ink ribbons: your means of saving. Not even the ability to save your game is exempt from that fact. A ballsy choice of the devs. Also keep in mind that you'll be doing this without autosaving, spelled out objectives, interaction icons, excessive tutorials, or that insulting/pandering map that keeps track of all things interactive for you.
    What makes REmake 2 & 3's outcomes all the more tragic for me is that I see a lot of potential within for greatness. Maybe the devs misunderstood the franchise's core appeal? Maybe the massive budget AAA games get is a blessing and a curse that forces compromises to maximize profit? I can't forgive them either way. I could go into deeper detail, but don't have the time to do so in a comment. Someday I will.
    I've had this pent up frustration since REmake 2 released. A lot of people give it huge praise and I wanted to be one them. Yet the flaws are far too apparent to ignore for, what feels like only, me. It's a very isolating feeling to bear. I can only hope there are other conflicted RE fans that find my comment to confirm that neither of us are alone in our feelings.
    RE6 almost killed this franchise I grew up with. I'm afraid that REmake 3 will succeed.

      @nastykactus7993 4 роки тому

      I'll say I'm biased as a guy who thinks that really loves RE2make and prefers it to the original, but even still I can totally respect the opinion that these two games aren't good remakes in the way the first one was, but I don't think it's fair to say that at least 2, but also even 3 at times completely miss the point of this franchise's core appeal. In fact, the less scripted way a lot of things are handled I think improves it.
      Not only are all of the elements you mentioned still a focus in RE2make, with the only thing I'd call "gratuitous" being the ink ribbons but even then I used up most of them, but if anything I thought the way a lot of encounters like the lickers were handled made the situation much more engaging than the original.
      As opposed to being a scripted, cinematic walk towards obvious danger up ahead, you're often thrust without warning into staring down a lot of the game's new enemy types without any sort of meaningful pause with stuff like a cutscene to try and "scare" the player before the actual gameplay starts. I think in that regard it's hit the nail on the head of a survivor a lot more because instead of focusing too hard on characters constantly crossing paths or stupid decisions logistically it's more about the player choosing the best way to survive and proceed with the situation when wrenches are constantly being thrown into your plans surprisingly.
      Basically I get the comments like atmosphere and all of that, but I think from a game play standpoint these two games have done well to capture the spirit of the original's limited mobility and meaningful decision making in every encounter without going too resident evil 4 to the point where it feels like you have an endless amount of options in every situation, but RE3 definitely feels a bit too linear and generous with ammunition, and I don't feel like those parts get enough credit.

    The problem was that the "B" team was developing this, and it was clearly more rushed to ensure it didn't get too close with the release of RE8 and still felt fresh with RE2 remakes release. I understand why they did it but I was super disappointed cause I was looking forward to RE3, but on the PlayStation 4. "RE6 lite" really is the best description.

    As Nerrel has said if a remake isn't superior in every way to a game made 20 years ago then it can't really be deemed a total success - ReMake was a complete improvement on the original RE1. How can an RE3 game with missing areas, almost inaudible music, less atmosphere and a forgettable(!?) Nemesis be a complete improvement? And the use of OTS camera always seems to turn these games into a kind of RE4/RE6 hybrid.
    PS - looking at this review - has the 'objective' marker returned? That's all we need, another one-time survival horror title when you're constantly being ordered around!

    The developers said that they'll never go back to the fixed camera angles ever again, because they think that we have moved long past that now. As for this remake, I prefer it's atmosphere over the previous one. I'm mostly a sucker for eye candy, and I love how the game made Racoon City pop out. It's pretty rare to see horror look this way. There were some parts that did give me a good scare here and there, but it seems that 7 scared me more. I was surprised that we didn't get to the part or the clock tower (which I forgot about until you brought it up), but I still liked the changes here. As for the zombies, I don't think that recycling them from part 2 was THAT BAD of a thing. Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't this game suppose to take place at the same night as 2, but just in a different time? So I think it would make some sense to see the same zombies in this one. And before I forget, the zombies in the background that you pointed out reminded me of the news anchor from RE6!

    While I don't agree with many points you make (Mr.X being annoying, being flush with ammo, remake 2 stradling the line, etc.) I like that you articulte your points without pointing groups of people out.
    I personally love RE2 remake WAY more than RE3. From how you need to memorize surroundings, mangage resources more, worrying about Mr. X, I liked it all more than RE3 short and pretty scripted campaign. I've played through every difficutly of RE2 and made sure to get the highest rank possible on it. I did the same with RE3, but nowhere near the amount of time was spent or enjoyment had.
    Also, when you mentioned that over the shoulder shooting would always lead into shoot outs, the RE3 remake was indeed made by a different team within Capcom. I believe it was M2 that did RE3 while Capcom Divison 1 did RE2. They must have had different ideas on how to make the game.
    I'm not against a more action focused RE game; I feel that Resident Evil 3 was too short for this type of game, though. Had it had more set pieces, more open level design, had a bit more length to it, it could have been better. As is, it's a highly scripted, onrails, quickly done adventure. If you want to be actiony, that's fine, but I need more control and I definitely need the game to be longer, more than anything else.

    Compare that to RE2 Remake which gave you 4th Survivor, Tofu, Claire/Leon’s campaign (depending on who you did first), as well as the A/B scenarios (even though those were half lacking)This game gives you...more difficulties...that’s it. compare it to 2002 REmake which offered costumes, Invisible Enemy, the realistic Item Box, One Dangerous Zombie, etc...An 18 year old game offers more variety than a $60 game in 2020 and that is stupid

    Personally I loved the intro sequence. You never get a real gauge of how strong Nemesis is in the original. But seeing him burst through walls, floors, and using a part of a wall as a battering ram displays his raw power. In the original he just ran, slang his tentacles everwhere, and shot rockets. That's it. The intro set a precedent that he's not Mr.X. He's not mostly going to just be kind and open doors. Which is what you assume what he does in the original since none of the doors or walls are destroyed in the original. He goes through a window in the RPD and that was about it.
    That said, I did feel like this game was scarier than the original. Especially on Nightmare mode when Lickers show up when you don't expect it and the Hunters were a force to reckon with. I HATED running into a Hunter because they can just end you in a one hit kill that isn't easy to avoid. And then Nemesis sprints even faster on Nightmare. Giving you much less room to breath. RE2 was really only scary when Mr.X was coming after you. Other than that, it felt very action oriented. At least to me it did. The G mutants in the sewer weren't scary. They were just annoying. And it made the sewer level suck.

    I wouldn’t say resident evil 3 remake is more repayable than resident evil 2 remake, when you in re 2 remake can play it once, and then see it from the characters perspective in the b scenario. I felt like i had to play re 2 about 4 times before i saw everything it had to offer, while i saw everything re 3 had to offer in one play through.(note that i do love both games, but re 3 remake is definitely a step down form the re 2 remake) and last but not least mr.x in re 2 remake is a fantastic reimagining, since he adds tremendous tension, and encourages you to learn his behavior, and how to hide from him, but it also adds a new survival horror element since you have to consider if it is worth the ammo, AND alerting mr.x when shooting a zombie. And the re 2 remakes removel of the fixed camera was a bit disappointing at first, but the tradeoff ended just being better gameplay where the player are given more engaging ways to interact with the environment. This makes resident evil 2 remake the definitive way to play resident evil 2 in my opinion. On the other hand, with resident evil 3 remake nemesis was transformed into a scripted set of events and never felt mensing or scary. With all the things that was cut from the 3rd remake i would say it doesn’t replace the original game as i was hoping it would, making it a bit disappointing. My only hopes are that resident evil 4 remake will get the same care and love the first 2 remakes got.
