    There was nothing difficult to understand about the original resident evil timeline literally almost everything is recorded and dated within all the games files and little side notes along the ways. Lot of the story was told in the scenery as well I felt it was up to the player to figure out what happened in these rooms or city streets left in disarray

      @@Mike.Knight69 Never said it was inconsistent or difficult to follow. But gameplay alone makes the current games feel more streamlined. Going from fixed camera angles to over the shoulder in 4 was a bit interesting. These games all play the same, and RE4R alone had more connections to previous games than the original RE4 did

      @@newmobils8294 My point is that it isn't just a straight forward story where there are only references to the previous game. These Remakes are sprinkled in with clever Easter eggs and connections that the older ones didn't have. Yes, the original games before 4 did play the same. But we are seeing these Remakes where ALL of them play the same. When we eventually get a CV Remake, and possibly even a 1 or 0 Remake, those games will feel a lot more streamlined, due to all of the games up to that point playing the same way. Even 4 and 5 (and especially 6) feel way different than even 7 does. So we could potentially see a world where every RE game plays essentially the same. I'm not dogging on the OG games by any means, I play them all the time. Love those games. But the Remakes do indeed have more connections.

    The reason that all the mainline games as well as their remakes are canon all at the same time is cause certain elements of all the different playthroughs are canon without concern for how they can all have happened at the same time. There will never be an explicit "This is exactly what happend" version cause these are all video games first and foremost. For example a "canon" version of RE1 would have Chris, Jill, Barry, Rebecca, Albert, Richard, and Enricho all tripsing around the mansion at the same time blasting away at zombies and solving puzzles on top of each other and yet rarely ever (in some cases never) running into one another nor hearing their life and death struggles or gun blasts and thats not including Lisa, zombie Forest, and Yawn. RE5 implies that Chris is the one that ruined Alberts plans in RE1 and thus earned his hatred, yet Revalations 2 makes it clear that both the "Jill Sandwich" and "Master of Unlocking" lines actually were said by Barry, this would imply that neither was locked up the whole game and both were activly exploring the mansion without encountering each other and doing all the same things over and over. See how ridiculous this gets?
    Just enjoy them as games cause even in games that don't give any real leeway in how the story unfolds like RE5 there is still plenty of "gameplay before story" moments. As far as the remakes making more "sense" I suspect that that has more to do with them being the preference for alot of younger and newer RE fans who think that tank controls are some sort of pagan mystism that requires you to sell your soul to Satan in order to work and that they have prettier graphics. If they are your preference thats fine but I see them as simple reimaginings of the same basic story little different then the Umbrella and Darkside Chronicles, they don't replace anything just give an alternate version of events and add new details.

      @@RogueDragon05 I get what you mean. But what I like about the Remakes is that we DO have a definitive story. Some small things, in particular the A/B Claire and Leon story in RE2R, can be a little questionable. Everything is however is perfection. I don't think Capcom is using the word "Canon" correctly here. Ivy monsters are NOT the same. Locations are different. Some events are 100% removed or reworked. Sure, the same story beats are more or less there. But I like that the current games are focusing more on consistency and detail.

I'm just glad that Capcom seems to be more opened to keeping the originals alive then previously thought with the old school PC releases on GOG recently, and I hope we can see some modern console ports soon. Hell would be great if they added them as DLC for the remakes even.

      @@carloRX78K2 I get that, I sort of feel the same way. But it's hard to judge it really. They had to build the story as each game released, whereas the Remakes have an advantage to where they can take already existing stories and add on to them. Them revealing too much is hard to judge too. We already know the basic story beats. But I will say I was pleasantly surprised by the connection between RE3 and RE4 Remakes. If they keep that level of connectivity together, we could finally have a more streamlined story. But the classics, while the stories are hit or miss with quality and continuity, are timeless gems. They are like a time machine to the past.

Both locations in 4 and 8 are relatively close, and the mold and plaga are both stored underground.

    I want them to remake resident evil one for many reasons, but the main reason is a Canon where everybody escapes and then also give us a reason why Wesker hates Chris so much. We only see him interact with Chris and Veronica the first game and then resident evil 5 that’s literally it. We don’t have any more interactions with him and even in Veronica he hardly interacts with Chris.

    • @RacoonCityPizza
      @RacoonCityPizza  Місяць тому

      I personally think one of two things. 1) Wesker hates Chris for some reason that does indeed need to be explored, or 2) He hates ALL of the S.T.A.R.S members equally...it just so happens that Chris is the one he always crosses paths with. He does cross paths with Jill in RE5 obviously, but he kept her under his spell not only as a way to use her, but to tourment her as well. We even see that PTSD play out in Death Island.

I am iffy on him, but I defintiely belive CV is being remade due to fans' outcry. Outbreak is a game that fans are dying for - and Capcom knows it. Capcom isn't going to waste time and money on remaking a game that was already received very well and is still a modern game. RE7 is very modern. It isn't the age that defies the need for a remake, it's the gameplay and how modern it is. All of the Remakes we have gotten are of older games that have outdated controls. RE7 is very modern. It plays like it was released last year. When gaming eventually either a) screeches to a hault due to the inability to become more advanced, or b) keeps on advancing to where modern games will be viewed as outdated with controls...we won't see an RE7 remake. It's pointless.

    I mean it’s easier to connect the series altogether now than it was before, considering they had no idea in what direction they were heading back then, which is normal. The series had no continuity yet, so when you have the full picture than the OG games didn’t have, it is expected to manage that.
    The contrary would have been disappointing.
    RE4 can now tease RE5 (and not a remake of it, this was misinterpreted in my opinion), RE4 is tied to RE3 with the parasite. Leon and Ada’s characters have more continuity between RE2 and RE4 than they had in the OGs where they felt like complete different characters.
