Also an actual comment. This is my favorite RE. it’s so weird. It’s like the ff8 of RE games where the ideas were neat but never fully realized. That and Steve was… a lot. His voice was so cringe. Alfred was pretty cool. I honestly liked how outlandish he was as a villain. And plane tyrant. I still love this game tho.
Not to mention the opening cutscenes, weapon variety, the dual wielding mechanic, the Rodrigo subplot, Alexia's first form.... Everything down to the documents and the battle mode gave the game so much character and individuality! Code Veronica is a gem and it DESERVES to be remade in the same vein as the original resident evil, but MAYBE in the re engine
My first playthrough of Code Veronica took me about 6 or so years to finish. When I first played it I got stuck on this puzzle where you go in a basement room have to grab and turn a dial in a circle. At the time I first played it I was about 13-14 and hadn't encountered anything that a player could rotate in a circle before. I was used to the older resi style push block forward run to other side push block other direction method. My save file laid dormant until mid xbox 360 era. I loaded up my file ran down into the basement I think in the medical building and beat the puzzle first try without even having to think about it. Wild to think how far games have come.
Yeah, thr tank controls are weird, but you always go forward in whatever direction your looking, the iron maiden puzzle automatically directs your characters direction, so all you do is go straight
@@shiningmissingno.8788 yea I just remember just holding the left d pad button and running around while the gas filled the room
Was always my favourite resident evil.
It’s so annoying that it gets ignored even tho it’s the original RE3
I do disagree with the fire extinguisher thing tho, the fact that the item persists in your inventory when used keys get thrown away is a dead giveaway.
I always loved that CV doesn’t hold your hand, it added a level of difficulty that RE games have never matched up to since. Really made it feel like every choice had consequences
Although CV is a great game, those Dreamcast sales hurt. Even with PS2 sales of CV, combined, it fell short on making it a top ten RE game.
I do think and hope they make a remake. Remake's are a cash cow for Capcom and easy money considering the plot, characters, and story is basically already written.
Code Veronica is easily the hardest RE game. CV is definitely one of my favorite RE games. Playing this back in 2000 there were no google searches you could do to help you during a delema. CV does not hold your hand throughout the game, which makes this true Survival Horror in every sense of the word. No other RE game makes you pay by starting your game over if you are not conservative with your ammo. If you don't leave Chris with enough weapons, you have to start the game over. And to top it off you have limited saves throughout the the game. More Survival Horror games should be made like this... I cannot wait for the remake.
Back in 2000 when the game came out, my dad printed out a walkthrough off some chat site. Blew my mind honestly since i was 6, but loved watching him play
The biggest problem with CV (along with all the OG Resident Evil games) is those bleedin' door loading screen...
You literally see them every 30 or so seconds and you end up absolutely despising them by the end of your play through.
Hey Ezzi thank you for everything you do for humanity
First rule about Capcom never tell Capcom what to do
Yes!!! Remake CV NOW! Let's f*ckin' goo!!
Code Veronica was a blast with real 3D graphics for the first time! The Story was so well integrated!
Of course it had some flaws but with a Remake we could have the all important Code Veronica Remake!
I hope it matters for casual gamers as well as for us day 1 RE Fans!
p.s: I like games where you have to think and explore and not the game do it for you! And there is enough Ammo for good players! I like respawning like you get better in defeating them!
Yes! A Remake should have some of the new stuff but i hope they have some good old Modes for us.
Great video. Another great survival horror channel on the rise.
That said, please mix your voice a bit higher in editing, man. Your videos are much quieter than usual, requiring increasing the volume a lot, while also having very loud portions, making it challenging to not wake up neighbors at night. Also, when your video ends and a video from another creator starts, I get deaf instantly.
I think that plane tyrant was the most I've ever locked in for a boss fight. Like, literally saved all the BOW rounds, used them on it before the plane only to spend ages trying to fight that thing with limited resources. But damn it was satisfying when it was over.
Ezzi you're awesome! I wish you had more subs, hope to see you grow in the future, I wonder what you think about the MGS series as a whole. Maybe something to tackle in the future? Either way I'll be here to see it.
I share the sentiment that it should be remade precisely because of its problems.
Also I never understood why they couldn't just call it Resident Evil 3 Code Veronica and have two RE3s, since both are canonical.
The player should know not to leave the fire extinguisher behind, thats a rule in RE games, never leave any items behind and keep them all in a storage box.
What happened was people realized game is 😴
Id love a remake should have gotten it before 4
Unfortunately, Capcom skipped the CV and gone to Resident Evil 4 remake being the best-selling game. So it's happens that it.
They have to remake this game cause its connected to re 1 with wesker turning on stars and dying. Claire looking for chris etc and chris and wesker going into re 5 and then re 6 with Jake
Remake Code Veronica and I’ll be extremely happy. I’d especially would love to have it done with passion and love put into it like the way that they did RE2 and RE4 remake
I beat this on Dreamcast and PS2. So as an eleven and thirteen yearold. Knowing so many people gave up on it, makes me proud lol! But I followed the series growing up getting the first two when i was 8.
Each to their own. I enjoyed this game, but i respect your opinion.👍
Yesss!!! Even before watching i already agree!
Code Veronnica remake lets go!!
I agree they should remake Code Veronica instead of 5, Resident Evil 5 needs a remake even less then Super Metroid does.
Also....I had a friend who got all the way to the end but left all the guns with Claire..... unless he was gonna knife the final boss to death ( he didn't) he basically soft locked himself in the game......there was no way to know this being that this was when the game came out for the Dreamcast.....I learned from his mistake tho lol
I love OG RE 1-3..but this game backtracking is annoying I hope they will cut the exaggerated backing tracking when they remake this game.
Code Veronica is so important! They can't not Remake Code Veronica! I hope they bring it back BIG TIME!!!
Capcom Devs. got new Threadripper CPU's for the Remake Dev. Team so it smells like new stuff is coming soon!
Unlikely on Code Veronica remake, it's not Capcom they will skip CV remake and focus on 9 or 5 remake. So, Capcom will leave the CV in the closet for all eternity and that never seen the light of day ever again.
It's a shame that Resident Evil Nemesis got the number 3 in the title, instead of Code Veronica, when Nemesis is the spin-off and Code Veronica is the sequel.
But since Nemesis is officially the third game, Code Veronica is only seen as an unimportant spin-off, when it is an important mainline game.
Not really, Nemesis is the 3rd entry, but Code Veronica is a spin-off, never a number entry being long and having a painful backtracking on where to go. So CV is a spin-off and 3 a prequel to 2 and how Raccoon City will be gone thanks to Umbrella.
They must remake re1 first if any one wants too feel for chris bc resident evil 7 and 8 don't do that good of a job telling what happened 20 years ago in the Spencer mansion then weskers character will be flushed out to new people
I would just use all my explosive arrows on the Tyrant. Easy w
I’ll be honest: I don’t love this game. Every time I revisit it I find myself frustrated and dissatisfied. Your review, however, I love. Great retrospective.
I beat this game just recently and I'm sorry to say, but this game did not age well compared to its ps1 counterparts imo. Every boss fight was frustrating as hell and as you said in the video, there were many bad design decisions throughout the game. It's why I held off playing it until it was on sale for just $5 on PS Store.
The atmosphere, characters, story, music and puzzles were fine but the gameplay wasn't as good as RE1-RE3 imo. I'm still glad I played it. It's at best B- or C tier game.
This game was *more in need of a remake* instead of RE4.
25:20 I can feel the frustration right there. God.
Yeah, I really think this could turn into one of the best games in the series with a proper remake! But please no Linear Launcher
@@Ezzidio The Linear Launcher was cool af. Why don’t you like it? It’s like RE’s B.F.G.
Also, while i wouldn't blame the game for this, the 3D hasn't aged as well as the pre-rendered backgrounds from re1-3. The games all show their age nowadays, but the art direction of re2 and 3 in particular holds up a lot better than the much more bland and less detailed environments from CV.
this isn't necessarily me saying that CV should have been another game with pre-rendered backgrounds, to be clear. I'm sure CV looked impressive at the time. But now that we live in a time where the games all look outdated, the ps1 games are just a lot more interesting to look at.
@@ahumanbeingfromtheearth1502 You’ve got to be joking, the facial expressions in Code Veronica alone was the most cinematic games have ever been the year it came out, and it happened on Dreamcast first, it wasn’t just “good for its time🙄” it was literal LIGHTYEARS ahead of the 32-bit PS1 games. The backgrounds could have been shinier sure, but the main game was excellent and had a more involving story than ever.
U got bad taste bro
Nah give us Outbreak. Now we got the capabilities. Remake this before bringing us another multiplayer "spin off" mode that no one asked for and gets abandoned 2 weeks after early access
Cool video but I can barely hear you.
This is going to be a long comment, but bare with it readers... Not to flex, but I am regarded by some as a Code Veronica story specialist.
My friend... ehh...
You started the video with the NON-CANONICAL ending of RE2, whilst quoting the canonical dialogue of RE2.
You got part of the history right. But CV with Claire was never meant to be the true RE3. As the plans were already to have Jill, it's no spririse that RE3 had Jill in it, as she was intended to be in THE THIRD game. CV was always intended as a spin-off project. the ending of CV (and more specifically CVX) gave this away.
As for Dreamcast being blamed for CV's failure, I covered this (and many other misconceptions) in my CVX vs DSC video. Those MILLIONS of PS2 owners, RECVX did better on PS2, but didn't even sell 2 million units. So MAYBE the reality is that CVX was not a CONSOLE MOVIER, and thus, not very good?
Rockford Island is not "nearby". Rockfort Island is in South America, in the Pacific Ocean, which is VERY FAR away from Paris.
At least someone realizes that Steve's not really an issue.. As for Steve's character, watch my video chapter on Steve's analysis to see the mistakes you've made with his characterization.
As for Steve's age, he's 17, and Clair'es 19. Both are technically TEENAGERS. Claire also spouts one-liners (e.g Cross-dressing freak, giant cockroach, I've got you now, etc).
"... a cargo plane that Claire discovered earlier..." Guess who gave Claire this idea to look for a cargo plane... STEVE! when he said "I hear there's an airport around here." when the two first met. If you know of my work, you know why this is important.
After reuniting with Claire, the game switches you back to Claire for a very short segment... FOR A REASON! This was the MOST IMPORTANT PART and... the PRIMARY PURPOSE of this game, which was NOT to reunite Claire and Chris. CVX did something that NO OTHER GAME has done with a recurring female protagonist. Compare Claire's frame of mind from the start of the game to the end of it. She starts the game mentally touch as an action hero, and ends the game, MENTALLY BROKEN like a little girl. The female progression arc told IN REVERSE! And the main device to this was Claire losing Steve.
This trauma is referenced at least TWENTY TWO TIMES in future canonical Claire appearences. And that is why, one if the BIGGEST misconceptions is that this game is about siblings. It isn't. It's about Claire's journey from strong to broken. She views here reunion with Chris, coming at the expense of losing Steve, a price she wasn't ready to pay. And... the evidence for this is so overwhelming at this point, that people who claim otherwise have to validate their claims.
Let me know what you think.
Photorealism ruined gaming.
This vid made me mad i tried sleeping to it but you mixed the audio so poorly with the clips of RECVX that every time I was falling asleep i heard alexia or steve start yelling super loud in my ear all of a sudden
Agreed so Capcom should skip CV and focus on 9, 5 remake, 1, 0 separate never together, and Dino Crisis needs a remake instead of leaving it in the dust of forgotten Capcom games besides CV.
Not only should it be remade but it should be the first remake done in first person.
That sounds like a terrible idea lol
Shut up
It definitely SHOULD NOT ABANDON THIS REMAKE
