@@edd_TV i don't think its fair to say she has no passion, her voice actress was very excited to voice ada and understood her as well. its ok to not like the performance, but there was effort. and adas voice was recast for good reason from 2r as well
@@ro8213 It just didn’t translate very well at all. Maybe it’s because she was just poorly written. Her first encounter with Leon in the remake is so bad. I don’t doubt she was excited for the role, but it was pretty flat
@@ChiefMedicPururu I think the only way we can get another version of RE1 is if they completely change it; similarly to how they have done Final Fantasy 7 Remake. They could give us new/altered storylines, completely different gameplay etc. It would have to be a reimagining of RE1 because the Remake still holds up really well!
@@ChiefMedicPururu coming from someone who deeply enjoys the RE1 remake from GameCube, it definitely is needed. All of the new players that have come into the franchise since the RE engine remakes have dropped are not going to play that game. A modern remake in the RE engine is what is needed, giving us a concise true ending to the mansion.
My personal choice would be Code Veronica as that was my guilty pleasure in the franchise. Plus I am interested in seeing how they handle Alfred Ashford and if they can make Steve less annoying
I don't think there's any chance of that Claire insult flying in 2024 onwards! But I agree. Whilst this video is about Wesker, Alfred is such an interesting talking point for CV! I think given Carlos' transformation in RE3's Remake, Steve could definitely get a glow up! Fingers crossed!
Tbf it's good that RE4 remake can leave people questioning themselves about who is Wesker. That will only make them dig deeper into the franchise, which is a good thing!
CV is the most important, for sure. I'd be quite happy to go CV into 5 and then back to RE1. I really want RE1 but in terms of bridging Wesker and building hype for the RE5 Remake, it has to be CV!
@@edd_TV Right now CV, and zero are in development. Both will be launched in a very short Succession. This was leaked by twitters and insiders and also confirmed by capcom. And RE 9 is also in dev, but will come in a later date.
@@viniciustorres3318 Yeah we'll have to wait and see. Another remake could potentially be a reimagining and they could alter a few things in this new timeline if they wanted; similarly to how the Final Fantasy 7 remake has happened. I'm not very hopeful they will do it any time soon, but I'd love to see it! Fingers crossed.
Agreed, it would be so weird to go straight into 5. I kinda wish they did CV before 4, but 4 is regarded as the 'best' for a lot of people so I get it. Fingers crossed CV is next!
Everything started in RE0 & 1 for Wesker and from what I remember, he worked in the shadows against Umbrella with Birkin as his accomplice on the inside. A remake of those two games could expand on that and maybe more (like the virus that turned Wesker into the superhuman he became).
I think Capcom's main difficulty when it comes to all the important Wesker Games is finding a different design for Chris for each one. They have to make sure he looks like an entirely different character each time after all.
I've been saying this exact same thing. They need to build up the Redfield/Wesker story before remaking 5 and finishing their story. Well done! Earned my sub!
Exactly this. Re5 brought in so many people unfamiliar with the franchise by appealing to what was popular gaming at the time. I get yes there will be people who don't know who he is but I feel like it's going to be such a small amount of people that it won't be a problem. But I'm hoping for a cv remake next anyway.
I left the same comment. For me , it didn’t matter that I didn’t know who he was, I was only concerned with his current status in the game I was playing.
I'd love to see them. I don't think RE1 is super necessary, that's more just a wish of my own, but I would love it. They could make the Spencer Mansion so damn scary.
Albert Wesker in the 2023 remake of “Resident Evil 4” sounds intimidating. I hope Burnatowski reprises his role as Wesker in remakes of “Resident Evil 0”, “Resident Evil 1”, “Resident Evil: Code Veronica” and “Resident Evil 5”.
I think there is potential there. I don't want them to recast him or anything. It's more the model that bothers me I think. He definitely comes across more 'real' and sinister than the RE5's comic book villain style of Wesker many know and love. It's possible they will keep him, but they did recast Ada's voice actor, so I'm not sure. We'll have to wait and see!
@@michaellynes3540 I wasn't super impressed with her personally but I know some people really liked her. I felt she was super quiet. There were times where I actually had to turn the volume up, haha You are right though, if you look at posts on Reddit and such, the backlash is extreme!
I am very scared for RE0 or CV Remake since it appears that Capcom will enlist team B to do them (Re3 Remake) instead of Team A (RE 2 and 4 Remake) i REALLY hope that if it's the case Team B has learn their lesson with RE3 and step up, specially since they would have to work with a game that was not very popular to begin with and they would have to turn that around, unlike team A that had the best entries as reference (OG 2 and 4). P.S. I love your video you explain yourself marvelously.
That is concerning. I would like to think given how poor RE3R was received (even if I did enjoy it in some parts) they would put their best people on the job in future! CV seems to have a lot of fans and I really hope that and any other game they plan on doing in the future really gets the love it deserves! Also thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate that!
Thank you! I was really nervous about creating something like this because it's very different to anything I've done before. I'm so glad to hear you liked it! Thank you for your support :)
My personal choice is RE1. I still would love to see it in the RE Engine, make it really scary! And of course.... RE0. Gotta give my girl Rebecca more love :D
RE2 Remake scared the crap out of me at times, so it would be amazing to see what they could do with RE1. Maybe some fun opportunities for a DLC too? I hope you will get your wish for RE0 in time too. Rebecca definitely deserves to shine in the remakes, the most underrated character!
My personal choice is Code Veronica though another remake of Resident Evil 1 would also be welcomed at this point, I also think they should atleast HD Remaster the Resident Evil Outbreak games for current consoles.
I think Code Veronica has to be the most popular choice, for sure! There is so much untapped potential with that game I feel. Hopefully we get some news soon! The outbreak games would be very interesting too!
That's not incorrect, but it's still important they attempt to tell a coherent story for newcomers to the franchise. Wesker from the remakes doesn't need to mimic the OG, but it's still important that he is explained. I'm quite happy for this new VA to put their own mark on the character. Copying D.C Douglas' version would be a pointless exercise I think.
Here's my question, because i never played 0. Is it really THAT important that it cannot be summarized in an RE1make again? Couldn't it just be the intro for that game or just have lore like pieces of paper or dialogue sprinkled across?
That's a really great question and I think you could absolutely bake it into an RE1 remake! You could easily do both an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign and play both games back-to-back! I think that would be a great idea. It would bridge the games really nicely. I think they would likely do paper and dialogue stuff too, yeah! I don't think Zero is needed personally unless they REALLY want to expand on the likes of Marcus, Birkin and Wesker. And of course fleshing out Bravo team would be a lot nicer considering the game is supposed to be about them! It's not as important as RE1 but it is where it all started. It's rumoured to be the next one so everybody in the comments say! Nothing is confirmed though.
@@edd_TV Nothing is true unless it comes from THE source, but they could drag out the story (again) if they wanted to by making (and re-making) such titles like 0 and Code V. Feels like a waste to me but if it's profitable and not sub-part quality wise then i guess it's a good idea to do them again.
@@XpertGreekGamer I think it's important for modern audiences, yeah. It definitely feels cash-grabby (especially when you consider how RE3R was received) but I would like to think they have learned lessons. I'm interested to see how they could modernise these games and what changes they would make, both systematically and narratively! If it does bomb, at least we still have the originals to fall back on. Like you say, there's so much money to be made. I think eventually they will blast through them all.
Honestly, I don't want an RE5 Remake because I prefer Albert Weker's Character the way it Ended in a Satisfying Conclusion to his Arc as a Villain, but I do think a Remake of "RE: Code Veronica X" is definitely the safest Choice because there is a lot Things that needed to be Fixed from the Original, like better Voice Acting, better Pacing (because the Prison Island Level takes forever to Finish through), properly improved Gunplay (because all Zombies and Monsters are absolute Bullet Sponges) and of course the Introduction of a playable Wesker with his own Story Campaign outside of Special Features/Bonus Modes like Mercenaries.
I really don't like the Wesker we've seen in the Remake so far. He's peak in 5 for me. I do wonder if an RE5 ending would end the same way or if they would take it in a new direction. I do think it should probably be faithful to the original. Code Veronica is the best choice, that game could really do with a new coat of paint. A Wesker Campaign would be a really cool idea!
@@internettraveler8666 That's true, but I think so many are really happy with the '02 remake and really prefer the fixed cameras. I really want to see a more modern take on it personally but I understand fans love for the originals. I do agree though, I don't think it's a bad idea because it's so beloved.
With a proper writing Remake and 0 could have neatly fit into a single game. As 2 different campaigns with unique intervowen stories and gameplay aspects maybe. Or as a single campaign with the perspective changing from Rebecca to Chris midway through - the first part establishes Umbrella and the main story points and the second introduces Wesker adding the context to the first part for example. Sure, there's no way it's happening but it still could allow for some creative approaches. The gameplay and exploration integrity would be the priority for me personally though
I really love the idea of this. 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign could work so well together! Apparently Zero and Code Veronica are 'confirmed' as the next remakes, at least the rumour mill says. I don't think there is anything concrete out there. I think you're onto something though! If they want to present Zero then they could absolutely link it with 1. I think that would be great!
When you mentioned about new players playing this game would be wandering who wester is and why he has those powers and such, that was exactly what got me interested in him in the first place when I played the original code Veronica back in the day, that was my first experience with Wesker, and then after that, again on the Re1 remake, so I kind of learned about him a bit backwards, but I don't mind that at all, and I do agree that they should remake the older games before the re5 remake, cuz I don't think it's necessarily A bad thing to see Wesker today and learn about him in a backwards way, it just makes it more interesting to wander about his character.
I agree, it's not the end of the world whatever they choose to do! I've used the example of the Star Wars films backtracking with the prequels, so it would be fine I'm sure! I just think Code Veronica would build some serious hype for 5. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts and experiences!
@@Yogarpg It's a strange one. It's almost as if they consider it a side-story or non canon, which is crazy to me because it highlights the importance of Chris, Wesker and of course how much stronger he's become. Not to mention his survival from RE1! It feels like they don't consider it a mainline game, despite what a dedicated fanbase it has. It makes perfect sense to bring back Code Veronica.
I think if they do a second RE1 remake, RE0make needs to be included even if it’s a DLC released later. And then have a mode to where you can choose to play RE0make first and second RE1make, after both games have been purchased. RE0make needs to show more of bravo team and Billy Coen. RE0make can have the scenario campaign from RE6 and retain the co-op system from RE0 and RE5’s multiplayer. The prologue of the game takes place in 1988 with James Marcus about to be assassinated by Wesker and Birkin. But it won’t show Marcus or Wesker and Birkin’s face until it shows again in the climax. Similar to how the did Death Island with Dylan saying “stop I!” In the prologue and show it again in the middle of the film. Have one campaign play as Rebecca and Billy and the other campaign as the bravo team and have it lead up to RE1 and see their fates. Show more experiments of the mutated animals like how Ada mentioned the giant gator in RE2make. See Billy’s past in Africa 1997 have a young Sheva Alomar witness it in hiding with the 23 people killed as a connection to RE5. Also have the train sequence be a bit longer and have one part of the train have light flickering on and off. The scorpion battle stays. When in the URC, have it feel different and expand more on the concept and not make it feel like a carbon copy of the Spencer mansion. When Billy has to rescue Rebecca, if she falls, instead of a automatic game over, it will be a exclusive segment/mission for Rebecca to see her more experience and know more about Umbrella and the Spencer mansion. Billy would also still be alone and have his own mission on his own. It would be similar to the choice system from RE3: Nemesis. Also players would hear a running gag of bats around first of raccoons forest when players roam around there and it’s not until the giant bat shows up but players would use searchlights to blind it to harm it and use their weapons or other to kill it. When players play as bravo team, they will encounter more zombies and monsters and Edward would be the first one to play as until he runs to Rebecca. Wesker and Birkin would show more scenes and expand their roles by not revealing too much of what’s going on in RE2 and RE3. Rebecca would be scared of Billy in the remake compared to the original a bit until she trusts him when he rescues her from the fall. The ending of RE0make would be when Rebecca and Billy part ways and players would have a choice to continue as Rebecca in the second RE1 section in the Spencer mansion and see her point of view. Code Veronica needs a remake and actually show the scene of Claire contacting Leon. Leon is with Ark Thompson speaking to Claire about where she is located. Leon and Ark tell Chris that she is over at rock fort island. Ark also mentions and references Sheena Island without revealing too much. The game can have a choice to play as Chris or Claire in a player select and see their story. There will be also be times where co-op will play as role similar to RE0 and RE5-RE6. Claire with Steve, and Chris with Claire. Steve will be more likable and still be 17 in a few hours and see his maturity from when he turns 18 hours later. Steve will have Carlos’s attitude, Leon’s personality, and Luis’s charisma in one. And will show more of Wesker referencing events that happened in RE1, RE1make, and RE0 to connect the games. Have a hand-to-hand 3rd person fighting combat with Chris and Wesker similar to T3: ROTM game, Tekken series and 3D MK games and have players use objects to throw. RE5make needs to include all cut content such as: merchant (voiced by Paul Mercier from OG RE4), typewriters, zombies, tyrant, night and boat mission, and Barry. Have Chris start to get little PTSD about events from RE1, CV and Revelations. Have Sheva be more cooperative and improve AI. And connect her story with Billy’s 1997 mission with the 23 people murdered. Sheva had some family and friends murdered. Her parents died three years later, but her new family killed made her feel lost. Sheva was 11 years old and tries to go after the people responsible. Sheva mentions Billy’s mission to Chris Redfield. RE5make can also have themes involving prejudice but in a positive way. And maybe also have another Sheva who was a member in Africa and it turned out it was a clone similar how in RE6, there was an Ada clone name Carla. I think these games should be remade in that order. I also think that Survivor should also be remade in first person like RE7 and RE8 with an over the shoulder perspective like RE2make-RE4make. And see the ending with Ark escaping and sees Leon Kennedy and they tell Chris that Claire is at rock fort island. RE6make can be remade as well but just make it less repetitive and polish the storyline. Make Simmons feel like Major Zero from MGS and Emperor palpatine from Star Wars of RE. Simmons needs to feel more threatening and terrifying than ever. Because of how Leon lost over 70,000 people including the president because of him. For Chris campaign, make it darker and have themes similar to MGS5 showing how revenge can impair your mind and mess up the mission and the costs of war that comes with the cycle of revenge against “Ada.” It also deals with how Wesker almost killed Jill and he gets more PTSD than before. Chris would even walk up and see lots of bodies with blood around him. And Chris campaign shows horror aspects of war in survival to keep the story feel more horrifying. Leon’s campaign just needs to be improved since it was basically the horror campaign that other campaigns tried different. Leon can remember moments of what happened in Death island and Degeneration. Have audiences see Leon witness all the 70,000 deaths even the president in a horrifying, agonizing way. Jake and sherry’s campaign will be like RE1-RE2 how it’s a survival horror and they are rookies. They will show the horror of being out into the snow and see mutated snowman’s or yetis. And even have surprising shocking moments like a tank coming through without warning. Jake and Sherry talk deep about their father’s past and legacy. Jake’s story is sort of like Luke Skywalker how he doesn’t want to be like his father darth Vader, and with Jake he tries to do the opposite of what Albert Wesker wanted to do. Bruce, Fong and Ark make cameo appearances. Ark can be one of Leon’s pilot. I think RE9 should be released after these remakes for connecting plots and tying with RE9. I also think Outbreak can be remade by having Raccoon city as a huge open world and have a File 3 included as events that take place between general timeline of end of RE0 and RE2/RE3. And even remake Dead Aim. But Survivor can be DLC to second RE1 remake. RE0 mentioned in the beginning and referenced Raccoon city, Rock Fort Island and Sheena island. Some Survivor, CV X and Re0makes can be dlc to second RE1 make. But I think those dlc games need to be bigger and better basically like how RE4make’s separate ways did and improvement over RE3make.
Somebody else suggested Zero being a DLC for RE1 and I think that's such an awesome idea, it would tie them together beautifully. I love your comparisons with Major Zero from MGS and Palpatine from Star Wars. You make some great observations and suggestions and it's really exciting to see what they will come up with! Thank you for taking the time to type up such a detailed comment, this was a very enjoyable read.
@@edd_TV You’re welcome. Thank you for making this video. I thought of RE9make of just being included with the second RE1make because it would make more sense for RE1 to be remade again a second time because they both take place a day apart and Rebecca and Wesker are in both games but, the DLC thing could work out and have that feature to have RE0make play as the first part and RE1make as the second part if players choose that option. Or choose it however they want to play the story.
@@solidmage1720 I really like the idea of 0 being 1's DLC. I saw some interesting fan art of Resident Evil 9 titled as 'Resident Evil SIX' but the 'IX' was highlighted to indicate 9, but a reimagining of 6. I think that would be fascinating but I'm not sure how people would feel about the franchise going backwards a little bit from Village. It's hard to know what 9 will hold!
@@edd_TV RE9 could be like RE6. I do remember seeing RE9 being titled RE SIX. That could also be a subtle way of it being RE6 in secret but still being RE9. I think for RE9 to be like RE6, it needs the death island protagonists and Billy Coen as playable characters. The story takes place immediately after Village and before Shadows Of Rose. Mia will still play a huge part of the story and is with the death island characters and Billy Coen to take out the BSAA, connections, Umbrella and the virus. The villains would be Jessica, Raymond, Nikolai, Brandon Bailey, and Alex/Natalya Wesker. The game can have the team system similar to RE0 where players can be alone (solo) and co-op (team). The player select from RE1-RE2, Choice system and alternate paths from RE3: Nemesis, chapter system from RE4-RE5, scenario campaign and timeline from RE6, and alternate endings from RE1 and RE7. If they say RE9 is going to be open world like how village was, Capcom just needs it imagine open world raccoon city revisiting every single area from RE1-RE3. The story of RE9 can tie up and connect previous games into this game. And even have themes of fear of getting older, fear of change, fear of dying and passing on to a new generation. RE9 can be like MGS4. I also think RE9 should have death variations like how OG RE4 did. I think Billy Coen can play a huge part of the story meeting the other characters such as Jill, Leon, Claire and Chris. How he understands how it feels to be betrayed by a leader. Leon also remembers when Krauser betrayed Leon because the government betrayed Krauser and Billy can share that pain. And even Wesker betraying both Jilla and Chris. Chris, Jill, Leon, and Claire were a bit skeptical about him at first because he was a wanted felon until Billy convinced them what happened. What if after the Albert Wesker left Birkin and Umbrella, he called umbrella about Billy because he already saw umbrellas’s intentions and tells Umbrella and RPD to capture him? Immediately after Billy and Rebecca parted ways, Umbrella captured Billy to perform experiments on him and Billy accidentally exposed to himself to a virus and has to lay low despite him being wanted for murder. Billy Coen is like David Banner from the 1977 Incredible Hulk series. How he is drifting away and has to find a vaccine to treat and cure him. Carlos and HUNK try to find him. and That’s when he found Rebecca to help him get better. And if Barry returned in RE9, he feels guilty about what happened in RE1 when he betrayed Chris and Jill because of Wesker and now he knows that he doesn’t have time left. Alex/Natalya Wesker plans to kill Barry because of Wesker and even Chris and Claire because they confronted Wesker in the past.
I think CV should definitely be next. As much as I love RE and Wesker I just can't play it. I have tried but it's controls are aweful. I really want to experience the story. And it is absolutely needed before RE5 remake for context if nothing else. I know that CV was the most wanted remake in the capcom survey so hopefully they will listen otherwise what was the point in asking.
I agree with you. I didn't actually play it myself entirely. My uncle owned it and I watched him play it, with me occasionally doing bits and pieces here and there. I fought the Tyrant on the plane etc. I do recall the controls being very janky too and it just really isn't a pleasant experience in this day and age. I'm glad you're on the same page as me! Context is the most important thing. I know some people are kinda just like 'Who cares?' 'They can google it!' but that's not good enough for me. New players should be able to have a coherent experience with the game and story too! Judging from the comments on this video, I think CV is definitely the front runner! I think eventually we will see all the games, it's just a matter of which one they think is best next. I really want to see RE1 again, but you are right. CV is the most important. Love your username btw!
@@edd_TV I was first introduced to Wesker in Dead by daylight. I had never played any of the RE games but I was so intrigued by is character so I started playing RE from the ground up and now have 1000s if hours in RE especially Re5 and RE4R. The only games I haven't actually played are zero and CV. I know dead by daylight has made a lot of new Wesker fans as he has been in the top 10 most played killers for over 2 years now. DBD has for sure made a lot of people want to play RE because of Wesker. So from any point of view it makes so much sense to flesh out his stort for the newer fans.
@@WeskersWidow I haven't played DBD but I knew him and Nemesis were in it. I think that's awesome. It's cool how it introduces people to the franchise too!
Instead of another remake, they should give us a Wesker only game from Spencer Manor to his lava bath, tasked with fighting the heros. They can call it Weskers Bad Hair Day.
Hahaha. A Wesker game would be dope. Somebody suggested if they remade RE1 there could be a DLC where you play as Wesker escaping the mansion. I feel like there is definitely some untapped potential there. I just wish he was more like his RE5 counter-part. I'm really not keen on this new Wesker in the RE4 Remake at all.
I don't think it's wrong! I think it's certainly iconic to how those games were played but I think if we saw a reimagining of it, it wouldn't work as well. I suppose that's what will really set apart a 'remaster' and a 'remake'; a remaster should ideally just be tidying up the game whilst keeping all of the core elements. A remake can allow a completely different spin on the game, from the way it's played to the narrative. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a good example of this I think.
It would make the most sense to do RE1. Then we’ll have RE1, RE2, RE3, RE4 in the new engine and with the same voice and face actors etc. Then do CV, then RE5.
Love how Wesker’s voice changes in UC after his resurrection. DC Douglas brought such a chilling effect to that performance, he will always be the voice of Wesker as far as I’m concerned
I wholeheartedly agree! I feel words like 'Iconic' and 'Legendary' are thrown around so easily in this day and age, but it's exactly what he is. He was brilliant.
Honestly everyone I've ever talked to who played RE5 said they loved it. My wife and I also loved it when we went through it. I think there's just some haters out there who just get a kick out of trashing something for no reason.
I think you're right. People will always hate, and it's fine. We all enjoy different things. There are definitely things I like about 5 and things I don't. The boss fights aren't exactly fabulous, but I thought the co-op was amazing. I'd be really excited to play a remake of it. 5 doesn't have a Resident Evil 'feel' to me, but I still had fun with it!
I remember it well too! It was really exciting. I just can't forgive what they did to both of those characters in that game. That being said, if people like 6 that's great too. It just really didn't do it for me. Seeing those two in the trailer pointing the guns at each other was dope though.
@edd_TV I respect your opinion but don't see it. I like how Chris had that depression arch then lost Piers the dude who brought him back. Also Leon going after Ada and holding her was pretty great, Sherry Birkin being back with powers was amazing too. The gameplay was so fun aswell not having to rely on a gun or knife. Honestly the games that had me lose faith in RE was 7 and 8(the only resident evil game I haven't played
@@2.0wen Oh don't get me wrong, Piers was brilliant. He was the MVP! I wasn't so hot on Chris being an amnesiac or how serious Leon was. He felt like a completely different character to me, but his moment with Ada was nice and a long time coming! It was nice to get that pay off.
@edd_TV Its been awhile but I don't remember Chris having amnesia, I assume it was why he was at that bar. I must have seen it as heavy depression and drinking, but I'll admit I figured Finn dying just had that affect on him despite seeming odd. I think Leon being that way was more on Matt Mercer, I adore Matt but his Leon is pretty unique. He definitely makes some quips but they don't land the way they did in 4 or Darkside Chronicles with Paul Mercier, but it could definitely be argued it was the writing. Matt did good in the Damnnation movie, though.
@@2.0wen Yeah it was post-traumatic amnesia. It just felt a bit weird for me. I really didn't get on with Jake being Wesker's son either. I think you're right about Mercer too,and I agree, he's awesome! I have to say, it's refreshing to hear someone say they enjoyed 6, so thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings!
They should add more content in the beginning of re5r maybe a chapter or two with Jill and Chris and try to explain history between them and Wesker if they aren't gonna remake any other re
That would be fun. I really enjoyed their DLC in RE5 but it would be interesting if they wanted to expand on that. I would like to see more Jill. It felt strange that a legacy character didn't get much screen time at all. She did have her DLC with Josh too but it didn't feel like a lot.
For a smaller channel you made a good point on why tf they pulled billy out their asses and why tf wasn't Rebecca's team more prominent in a game about them same with nemesis in 3make and brad brad became zombie chow and nemesis killed 0 stars members but killed a shit load of of ubcs and civies
Thanks! It's something that definitely should be addressed if they want to remake 0 at any point. Keeping Billy is fine, but please can we have more of a focus on Bravo team! It's also really bizarre how Rebecca goes from being an absolute champ to a chump in RE1. It's a great opportunity to address these inconsistencies.
Zero wasn’t a bad game per-say but it definitely had it’s issues and could have been much better. The problem i have with Zero is it adds so many plot holes and inconsistencies that the series makes so much more sense without it. There was nothing wrong with Resident Evil 1 being the beginning, everything was explained and it made sense, so really Zero probably shouldn’t exist.
I agree. If they want to do it again then it's a great opportunity to fix things but I'm also quite happy to let it go. I love how much of a badass Rebecca is in Zero but then they completely undo that with 1. Enrico's more focused on Billy rather than the zombies, there is just so much weird stuff going on in that game; Doctor Marcus being the biggest offender. You are right, we didn't need Zero as they explain in RE1 that Bravo team went missing and Alpha went to rescue them, and that's honestly all we need in terms of a baseline. It was a nice idea that they tried to explore it with Zero, but it didn't work for me. I would be interested in them attempting to try again but I could live without it.
I guess if they do an RE1 Remake (imho the RE1 HD edition still holds up, only needs better dialogue), they could integrate RE0 into it. As a Separate Ways kind of dlc. Cut down the needless parts, to make it shorter, maybe cut out Billy Coen, since he never reappeared, so I'm sorry but he's not important. Maybe to have it more in line with RE1, have Rebecca do no big action scenes like Jill and Chris, have her be unarmed, not killing two tyrants, make it a true survival experience. They could also add a bit of RE2R like feel to it if they make Chris and Jill parts like an A and B scenario, to make it feel like both path happens. And finally, add a Ghost Survivor like dlc, that has you escape the mansion as Wesker. (preferably none of these should be dlc, but be part of the base game, but we know how Modern Gaming works...)
A few people have suggested Zero being a part of a DLC for a 1 Remake. I think it's a cool idea and would tie the games together really well. I love your idea of escaping the mansion as Wesker, that would be sick.
@@pedgone2240 That's a cool idea! I think it would be awesome if we could see him cameo in a 5 remake. It makes me sad that characters like Billy and Carlos were just swept under the rug.
I personally think that with the lengths of both 0 and 1, it would actually make sense for them to make them into one “super” remake, putting both into one longer, more cohesive chronological story of the Arklay mountains incident. It would probably still only work out around the same length as village and 4 remake and switching between Rebecca, Billy, Jill and Chris at set times in the story without the zapping system or separate campaigns would work well
Very cool idea. I would like that! I have seen a few people comment with ideas of having an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign in a fully fledged remake of both Zero and 1. It sounds like a great idea and would really tie together the stories nicely!
@@edd_TVI know if the recent rumours are true and we’re actually getting both 0 and Veronica remakes it won’t happen but it would have still been a cool idea, what I really hope is we eventually get a better cohesion between 0 and 1s stories and when they do remake 1s story again they make it into one campaign or the campaigns are different, maybe with Jill still entering the mansion through the front with Barry and Wesker, but Chris starting off in a different part of the mansion. I’m definitely looking forward to code Veronica though, it’s always been my guilty pleasure favourite of the series, I bought a Dreamcast just so I could play it back when it released
@@keithbarraclough151 That does seem to be the rumour mill, yeah! I agree. I think they could do a much better job bridging Zero and 1. There is so much potential to explore new avenues and I would welcome any of it! I have good memories of Code Veronica, I never owned it but I used to play it with my uncle when I was a kid. He had it on the PS2!
Haha, I don't begrudge you for it. I'm not totally against a 6 remake but I would want so much changed, so much that it wouldn't even be recognisable to its original. There have been a few fans of 6 in the comments, I just think it would be really hard to salvage based off the original. Not an impossible job, but I don't think the demand would be there at all. Never say never though! I saw some really cool fan art of a Resident Evil 9 announcement and it was titled 'Resident Evil SIX' with the 'IX' highlighted, almost like it was Resident Evil 9 but a reimagining of 6. That would be really interesting!
Agreed! Apparently he's in some trouble though. I think there are a lot of allegations surrounding him. I only learned of this from the comments! I agree though, D.C Douglas was immense as Wesker. I do worry that maybe it wouldn't be so good in 2023 onwards though? I'm not sure. I would love it but I don't think newer audiences would. They might find it a bit cheesy/cringe. I'm very interested to see what they will do with Wesker in an RE5R though when he's constantly in the spotlight! This new VA needs to put his stamp on the character! I just hope I'll enjoy it.
If they remake Code Veronica they need to make it so the player cannot leave the first room without the knife. It's too important of an item to risk leaving behind, as it is quite possible in the first section of CV to run out of ammo and get softlocked by the tyrant on the plane
I say we should do a Resident Evil 1 remake first so we can introduce Albert wesker a little bit better Also everybody know about The stars unit in Resident Evil 2 and 3 remake And also the incident about the Mansion incident it will be cool to actually go through it in the remake universe I think it wouldn't feel right to do A RE5 remake and the code Veronica remake with out the first resident evil to set the foundation for the Chris Redfield and Albert Wesker Rivalry I mean I love Resident Evil 4 remake 1 of my favorites but they should have done Resident Evil one And a code Veronica remake before the fourth remake Because Actually code Veronica happened before the fourth one And plus everything would makes sense with Wesker and everything else
That's a great point. It would be nice to get some more focus on S.T.A.R.S too! It's all good and well knowing that Nemesis is going to kill S.T.A.R.S members in the RE3 remake, but some context and backstory on them would be good!
@@seimen4348 You make a good point. If any of these remakes are treated the same as 3 then it's not even worth doing them imo. RE3 was such a rush, it was a damn shame. All the remakes have great potential but they need to actually want to do them for reasons other than money. 3 was a slap in the face and if they treat the likes of RE1 or Code Veronica like that, people aren't going to hold back.
Serious note, we already have a RE1 remake that's gold to this day. However, to do REmake 5, 1 and then Code Veronica must be done since the three have everything to do with Wesker and his relationship to Jill/Chris and the Umbrella Corp.
I do agree, the RE1 remake still holds up well to this day! A remake of RE1 wouldn't have the same feel to it either as we wouldn't get the fixed camera and so on. I just can't help but imagine how good it would look. I'm very much with you. I think they could do Code Veronica, then 5 and back to 1 if they prefer to. That wouldn't be the end of the world for me, but I think it would make more sense to these games in order.
The mansion is superb. I know there is a lot of nostalgia there and it is the original, but it really is a spectacle. The idea of seeing it on the RE engine is so exciting to me. They could flesh out the characters more and probably provide a better connection with Zero (assuming that gets a remake too). I also think more Wesker would be great. A lot of people have suggested a DLC campaign where you escape the mansion as Wesker. That could be fun. It would be really nice to get some Wesker games generally rather than playing as him in things like Mercenaries. I also love S.T.A.R.S Wesker too!
The Remake series has been so profitable for Capcom I can’t see them rushing it too much. I am one of few who actually like RE 0 quite a bit, but I’d say RE1 > CV > RE5 makes the most sense from a lore standpoint and a fiscal standpoint.
I very much agree with you. There is so much money to be made. I think we’ll see them all, and the order isn’t super important to me. I just want it to be somewhat coherent for newcomers!
That's a good idea. That would be pretty sweet! I think HUNK getting a story game would be really fun. His section was pretty great in RE2R, but it would be awesome to learn more about him and play as him. I guess they want to keep a lot of that mystery there, but he is really interesting! I would also love a game where we could play as Wesker. Some did comment if they were going to remake RE1 then there could be a DLC where you play as Wesker escaping the mansion. That would be good I think. It would just be nice to play him in something other than Mercenaries!
I want a RE5 Remake so bad has to have co-op and DLCs tho but I also agree new players need to know these characters and what they are and have went through because I want new players to get into the IP and be as hype as I was when I saw Chris punch a Boulder the size of a house 😂
The boulder scene is truly iconic, haha. I agree. It makes complete sense to see all of these games remade to make sense for newer players to the franchise. I also 100% agree with you that the co-op and DLC's need to remain. I would even be interested in new DLCs for any of the games! For example maybe a Wesker escape from the mansion in RE1. There is a lot of potential!
The correct way to go should be 1, code veronica and then 5, you can still play 5 kinda fine today, RE1 needs it more and it's an opportunity to focus fully on a "Chris saga" making a trilogy of games just for his and Wesker's story, 0 in my opinion is kinda optional, it has some scenes with Wesker and all but storywise i think it can be just a DLC for RE1R, but that's the opinion of someone that didn't actually play RE0
I very much agree. I think they could do something good for Zero too but it isn't really necessary for the overall 'Chris saga' you're mentioning. It just helps flesh Wesker out a bit more I guess. I'm with you on the idea of 1, CV and then 5 though. That just makes complete sense to me.
I think Zero, 1 and CV all need to be done in regards to helping a modern audience make sense of everything. I do agree with you regarding Zero too, I never had any fun with it. I just think modern fans of the franchise are really going to struggle go back and playing the older games.
Honestly CV could turn the Chris vs Wesker scene into a straight up fight to prepare us for RE5. Maybe shift things so Claire deals with Alexia and Chris fights Wesker
I would be down for this! I do think this remake timeline is a great opportunity to play around with the narrative and shift things about. And I don't think that's damaging to the original material either, fi anything it secures its validity because now you can have two difference experiences; I felt they did this right with RE4 Remake. I like where your head is at. Fingers crossed!
We will probably get RE9 before another remake, and after that my money’s on a RE0 remake. Hopefully without fundamentally changing it they can add on more of Bravo Team, and further explore the history of Marcus, Wesker and Birkin.
I think so too. I think the RE9 announcement is looming. Any particular reason why you think they would do Zero next? I don't really mind which they go for next. I just hope they do them all before 5R preferably!
@ I’ve heard rumors that Capcom is afraid to revisit RE5 since the first game stirred controversy and racial tensions haven’t exactly improved since 2009. I’m sure they want to do it but want time to approach how. RE0 I think would give them an opportunity to explore co-op in a way that feels like an appropriate reimagining of the original, it makes sense as a mechanical next step and also delves into much needed backstory. Personally I hope they expand our understanding of the Leech Queen, and Billy’s backstory, and implementation of Bravo Team would be a GREAT DLC idea so that they can still generally respect the canon of the original. They could even do a Wesker DLC based on his relevant mission in Umbrella Chronicles, which would be a guaranteed sale for fans.
@@CosBlade I remember reading about that too. I think having the game set in the night time would do wonders in adding some horror/fear to the game. It always felt so weird being in so much light. I think you are right though. Similarly to the Alfred Ashford situation with CV, they need to approach these elements of the games with care. I agree with all of your points regarding Zero. I think any changes or expanding with Zero could only be a good thing! I am desperate for a Wesker DLC too. It would be great to be able to play as him in something other than mercenaries!
I’ll also add this , my first RE I played and beat was RE4. I then moved on to play and love RE5. I had no idea who Wesker was and still regard RE5 as one of my top RE games. Maybe I’m the weird one but I don’t think the majority of audiences are going to care too much about knowing who Wesker was. All they have to do is make him a good antagonist in the game they are playing. Also, I’ve played all the recent remakes and forced myself through the RE REMAKE (I hate tank controls and fixed camera) and I still can’t tell you anything extra about Wesker other than he was a cop/scientist working with Umbrella who might love been testing the weapons against other cops and what we figure out in RE5.
No I don't think that makes you weird at all! I think we all go into games looking for different things. I think a lot of people might feel the same as you did back in the day. They might just be happy to play a game and roll with it. I just think it's important to try and tell a coherent story and explain things for new players to the franchise. It's possible a ton of people might not care, but I still think they should try!
I think right now is the perfect time to release a zero remake with coop. I know to back to back remakes wouldn't be ideal but I think dropping it before 9 and then dropping code Veronica remake after could set up a huge banger RE5 coop game masterpiece that ties all the remakes up and ends the remake saga
Zero with co-op would be very cool actually. Nobody has suggested that! I really like the idea. People have suggested they could combined both Zero and RE1, so you could choose both 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign. That sounds really great to me too. I really love the co-op in RE5 so something like that in Zero would honestly really hit for me I think. I think drastically changing the gameplay in Zero will only be a good thing too, as it's remembered for so much frustrating stuff. And then of course like you say, the big pay off in RE5R which IS a co-op game. I really like where your head is at! Very cool ideas.
1 should definitely be next, it would introduce young Chris in the new timeline it would allow them to fix the discrepancies with the the separate playthroughs with people going missing in the beginning.
This is so true. A new fan can play the new games, starting from RE7, going to the RE2 Remake, and build from there to get a complete storyline that still makes sense... Except for Wesker.
It might not be super important for a lot of fans. Some people have been like 'So what?' or 'Just go and play the old games', but I really wanted to shine a light on this. For me, Wesker IS Resident Evil (for the most part). Glad to hear you agree!
@@edd_TV That's great. Ragnarok Online and other korean MMOs always have good sound tracks. Been playing RO since 2005. I have a lot of fond memories from that game.
@@leorickaldana366 It makes me so happy when people recognise it. It's called 'Streamside' if you were curious of the name! I also love the music from Prontera and Payon! I have really great memories of it too!
My take on the Weaker story dilemma before the inevitable RE5 Remake is that Capcom should give us a Resident Evil Wesker Chronicles In which we explore the character before he became the mutated maniac, it would help to better characterize him as just the bad guy, my guy is straight up diabolical. Also the Wesker Chronicles would give us the assets to have DLC for each of the RE games (0,HD,Veronica) not worth remaking entirely and charging 70$ Also it should leave a relationship hint for wesker's son on RE6 which is I think the highlight campaign in that game.
That's a cool idea! I know some others have been interested in that too. I wonder if the demand would be there? I would love to see that. Even if it doesn't come next, I think it would be great for them to explore that! I also love your point about Jake. Jake just seemed so shoehorned into 6 so that Wesker could be a part of it, just as a memory now. That's a good thought!
Wesker Is one of the greatest Villains of all time. He is not just narcissistic, he's also tactical and has the ability to test his environments or fight or flight responses in the series. Which is why I believe he is still alive. In RE1 he was originally dead but was brought back by fans and was revealed he was still alive in Code Veronica. So if you think he died in RE5, think again! Wesker is the type to put limitations on his subordinates like Ada, Krauser, HUNK to make sure they follow through, or make adjustments in their failures or mutiny until he has no use for them. This can be summed up that he has his own clones controlled by the PG67A/W. Which in my theory means this version of Wesker is either 6 of 7 versions or the 67th version of Albert Wesker. Knowing this it means Wesker is trying to make sure his own clones do NOT challenge Wesker Prime!
I LOVE the idea of Wesker surviving RE5. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they did a 'Somehow Palpatine returned' moment with Wesker. It wouldn't even be beyond the realms that he cloned himself or something, yeah! Haha I love the title 'Wesker Prime'. I love your passion! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
@@edd_TV No problem. To make another note on the "clone Theory" it was in the LOst In Nightmares scene when Wesker and Spencer were chatting and Wesker tells Spencer "You saying I was 'Manufactured'?". Which tells me all the mothers in the Wesker program were surrogates to Spencer's DNA and were tested on with viruses like how the AShford twins were in Code Veronica. And by coincidence the blonde hair is the mutation effect of the viruses used. So Wesker Prime is actually Spencer's kid or "CLONE" just like Alexia and Alfred are clones of Veronica's DNA and as stated in CV and RE5 the blonde hair is the side effect of the virus used. I am reason to believe HUNK is also a clone because he has his hair blonde and slicked back like Wesker in the RE3 Epilogue.
The order I think they should do is do Code Veronica next, then RE5 with stronger emphasis on making the co op better, then implement those co op mechanics in a Zero remake. I am mixed on a second remake on RE1 cause the OG remake is so good and is available on most platforms now so I can take or leave another one.
I like the sound of that. What changes would you like to see with the co-op? I do agree, I think the remake for 1 was good but the prospect of a newer one on the RE engine really excites me; that being said I think other titles deserve it more, Code Veronica especially!
Honestly, regarding re zeros popularity, capcom’s better off making re zero just a long dlc for a re 1 remake This would make sense since both games take place during the same relative time. Besides, they already have Birkin, Wesker, Chris, Jill and Barry models in the re engine
I think that would be a solid idea. Somebody suggested having them baked into one game with two different campaigns: 'Alpha' and 'Bravo'. That would work pretty well I think.
Imo , the order should be 1, 0, CV, 5 , you kinda need to have experienced the Arklay mansion incident to fully understand 0 imo. I also think there should be a “new” game or at least a dlc where you play as Chris taking on umbrella Europe, we hear about it a lot but I don’t think we’ve ever actually seen him there. Imo it would build up remake Chris nicely
I agree! I feel like nobody talks enough about Zero and maybe if they make Wesker and Bravo team a bit more prominent in it, it will make for a better experience. I think both Zero and CV are vital before we see anything about RE5R.
As a slight RE connoisseur myself...I've literally been nervous and anxious about what they were gonna do next... it's nice to find someone who has the same concerns and views on this situation as i do... because to me...Wesker ve Chris is the biggest showdown in the entire RE universe. RE6 wasnt a good end to the series (i dont count RE7 and 8) and Chris vs Wesker is like the superbowl of the series...so... I'd be FINE with delayed gratification just to get it right. The remake of 5 could be the coup de gras of the series...but we need REmakes of 0...and CG first to REALLLLLYA amp up the rivalry. If they just make remake RE5 in the next year or two...it will feel meaningless. No build up. And to me...the series culminates with Wesker vs Chris. And the rest are supporting characters to make this happen....but for gods sake...PLEASE do not let Sheva aid in finishing Wesker off...If anyone deserves it...its Jill. Just a 1 on 1 fight. And for god sakes... leanlrn from the mistake of rushing REmake3. It was a disappointment and we dont need anymore of those..
So pleased to hear you related to this video well! I love your comparison of Chris/Wesker to the Superbowl, and I agree! It's the biggest pay off in the franchise. I know a lot of people think Leon is the poster boy and he's certainly most peoples favourites, but it all started with Chris. And he absolutely deserves his flowers in the remake timeline. I'm also with you that they should take their time with these games. I think we speak for everybody when we say we would rather something done that is crafted very carefully and deliberately, otherwise you end up with something like RE3R, and that will just be upsetting. Nemesis was so iconic and 3R hurt so many fans. You raise such a brilliant point about Sheva too. Don't get me wrong, I think she's a solid character but it HAD to be Jill given the history of everything. Jill felt incredibly out of place after her reveal, it was a strange way to treat a legacy character like that. She had her moment in the DLC but it felt very underwhelming! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really enjoyed reading this! I feel you have a great understanding of what the franchise needs to do to be the successful, and it's always great to hear from such a passionate fan!
I feel the same as you. I think I would honestly be happy with all of these games remade, but I think the order in which they do them is important. The 30th anniversary is coming up and I think that would be an amazing opportunity to present a reimagining of RE1. Code Veronica would also be an amazing announcement.
If RE0 ever gets a remake, it needs to be a ground-up remake that scraps *everything* from the original game, in order to better fit with the events of RE1. No Billy, no train, no second mansion, cut it all. A second mansion is dumb, and making the characters go through a separate (but identical) set of events to RE1 (cough cough Rebecca mf Chambers) just lessens the impact of the first game. RE0R should focus exclusively on STARS Bravo Team and their experiences in the Spencer Mansion shortly before the events of RE1. It should delve into the helicopter crash, each member getting picked off, and how the different members got to their locations where you discover them in the first game (like Richard meeting Yawn, or *HOW* Enrico got into the caves), etc. It would play similar to RE2R, or some kind of modernized RE1. It shouldn't be too long, as it would tie into RE1 seamlessly; maybe it could be a slightly longer Separate Ways or Shadows of Rose style DLC for a newer, more modernized RE1 remake. Rebecca was way too scared and confused in RE1 to have gone through the events of RE0; if she was in RE0 she'd be exhausted by RE1, if not exhausted then at least much more used to handling the zombies and BOWs than she appeared to be. Either make the events happen closer together so Rebecca's still too new/inexperienced/unaccustomed/not-adjusted to fighting zombies and hasn't gained the composure she (and all other surviving STARS & Raccoon City Incident survivors) developed after the initial trilogy, or make somebody else be the main playable character. Maybe it could be Enrico searching his way through the mansion and ending up in the caves. Maybe it could have everyone be playable for a short time. Play certain characters until they become a casualty, then switch to another character. It would have to follow the order of who died first, but it could definitely work. Play as Robert until he dies (have a last stand against the crows), play as Richard until he gets poisoned by Yawn's venom, etc. Or they could even do different episodes that all fit together; the Rebecca episode would go until she locks herself upstairs and meets Chris. The Enrico episode would last until the caves when he's shot by Wesker, the Richard episode goes the same as above. You could unlock the episodes by finding tapes on the corpses of dead Bravo Team members in this new RE1RR. Just a thought. Either way, it should focus on the events immediately preceding RE1, not some convoluted BS side story that throws a wrench in *all* of the RE1 story
I really like your thinking and totally agree. You raise such an important point with Rebecca too. The inconsistencies from Zero into RE1 are so incredibly frustrating and it begs the question why Zero is the way it is when it's supposed to be the precursor for all of this. It doesn't make sense. I like your ideas! Some people have suggested if they remake RE1 then they could potentially do both games in one; there could be an 'Alpha' campaign and a 'Bravo' campaign. This could tie the games pretty well together but they do have their work cut out for them in terms of quelling inconsistencies and telling a coherent story. This was a really good read! Thanks for watching and taking the time to type this up!
@@edd_TV An Alpha and Bravo campaign sounds brilliant tbh! Then you'd have a whole host of characters to choose from and explore tons of different story arcs that both were and weren't covered in RE1 and RE0. Maybe the Bravo Team campaign would unlock after you beat the Alpha (normal) campaign, so you play through and let the mysteries unravel like normal, then you get the full picture afterwards. So many opportunities present themselves from this suggestion alone. I really enjoyed your video, and thank you for replying to me. Keep up the good work and have a great night
@@MarioTheLiopleurodon I like the sound of that! It would be a great way to connect the dots. It's an exciting prospect for sure. Thank you for your kind words! Thanks for watching and take care :)
I had thoughts about where the franchise could go from here. As far as leaks go, take them with a grain of salt, but if the franchise came out with Resident Evil 9 I'd like to see a handing off of the torch in a way that still rewards some older players who grew up with it. For the importance of Wesker, it could evolve into a question between the other candidates of the W Project as to what they want the name Wesker means to them and the world. I wouldn't mind Jake Muller and Alex Wesker clashing ideologies about what it means to be a superior specimen in the middle of their superhuman battle of getting the upper hand on each other. It could be a great way to redeem Jake's character after how RE6 went. I also think RE9 in this scenario could extend where the franchise could go with a newer generation, and Capcom could still create more remakes of classic RE titles to buy time even if RE9 flopped with their direction. And if RE also failed, it's been a long and good run with a rich history in gaming. Dude I love talking about Resident Evil with my friend for hours on end about how we both experienced and noticed the time and care put into these and I only want good things for this franchise. A few learning mistakes were made but RE survived this long.
I like your thinking. I do think RE9 should be a change of the guard in some way. I think RE9 could serve as some sort of 'Endgame' where all the characters can reunite for one big send off, because they are all ageing very fast. It's probably time for some newer characters. It worked very well with Ethan Winters.
Tbh I'm more than happy with the new wesker, less corny and more remorseless. Which is exactly what his character is. Better writing in the future will help with that. Adas story gave him more screen time and i was more than happy. I'm a massive fan of wesker in general, especially due to D.C douglas and his fantastic voice work. Unfortunately he's ruined his reputation now
Definitely less corny, I agree. And I think it's probably a good thing in this day and age. Maybe the Wesker from RE5 wouldn't translate as well because it is very goofy, I just can't help but love it. I think your assessment on Wesker is very fair, and it's of course subjective. I hope the new VA can really make his own mark with Wesker. It's really important he doesn't attempt to emulate previous iterations. I just didn't feel very excited for him personally. I hope that will change going forward! The D.C Douglas stuff I honestly had no idea about until putting this video out and people mentioned him in the comments. I was gutted to read about it. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
For sure. I would be very interested to see what they would change with 5; none of the boss fights are particularly great so that could definitely do with a new coat of paint. Code Veronica would be massive in terms of a remake though, there is so much potential there.
@@edd_TV you're not responding to WhatsApp again so I'm here to inform you that me and the Badger have agreed to fight on the 15th and that me and you are doing a 2 week boot camp in preparation. Daily training is the key.
I love 5. Have good memories playing with a friend early on and I am currently doing a run with my bf for the first time and he also enjoys it. So yea we need his lore to make it more meaningful but also excited for them to do 5.
I feel exactly the same! I know the bosses are quite bad but I do think the co-op play really does save it in a lot of ways. It's a great experience and it holds up well today. I'd be really interested in seeing what they would change for an RE5R!
I actually have a strong feeling that RE1 will be remade next for various reasons. Obviously RE9 is next on the game schedule, most likely dropping in 2025. But I think RE1RR will come out in 2026. That will be the 30th anniversary of RE1 and it would make a good commemoration on the series and also it would re-introduce the audience to the original story of the series and the original characters. The re-introduction of Wesker, Chris, and Jill is absolutely needed to fully needed for the new audience. And also, a RE1RR would sell gang busters. I also think that RE0 and Code Veronica should be released as DLCs to RE1RR, that should equal to something a little longer than the separate ways remake dlc to make them substantial. Capcom is clearly trying to tidy up the timeline make it less confusing for new fans and I think full on releases for RE0 and CV would confuse new fans timeline wise and could possibly disinterest them in a RE5 remake by the time that rolled around. Remaking RE1 and including story elements in the base game that strongly imply weskers story isn’t over and releasing 2 huge story expansion DLCs for those who want the extra lore I think is the smartest option. Plus it would make RE1 Re-Remake the ultimate resident evil game, which would be fitting for a celebration for its 30th anniversary. This would set the stage for RE5R to be greatly anticipated amongst new and old fans alike, with the story making sense and also the titles of the games also.
A lot of people in the comments have been suggesting that Zero and Code Veronica are 'confirmed' to be next, but I'm not seeing any substantial proof of this. I think Zero would be a bizarre one to put forward next. You make a great point about the 30th Anniversary, that's a great shout! I'm totally with you on more of a spotlight being on Chris, Jill and Wesker too. It would even be nice for them to know people like Barry! I do wonder if the timeline will be beat-for-beat in the sense of how the stories are told. I really like your thinking. If it goes down like this I am absolutely here for it!
My hot take: Wesker didn’t actually die at the end of re5 The dude plans for longer than 4 games and in re5 throws it all out the window. He probably cloned himself or something as a backup plan.
I love 5. But you are right. Let’s build it up and let’s make 5 the last remake for awhile. But I want it to be better than 4 which is in my top 10 games along with re4 2005
I think 5 is quite polarising, but I love it too. And I think they could improve it so much. I think there are so many simple elements they could change to make the game better, for example have it set in the night rather than the day! That would make it so much more scarier. I think there is huge potential with a 5 remake and I would be really interested to see what they leave in and what they decide to change!
There are rummors that Capcom is working on 3 RE games Resident Evil 9 Resident Evil Zero Remake Resident Evil Code Veronica X Remake and also Resident Evil 1 Remake (but this is from a less reliable source)
@ personally I would like this release order 1.RE 1 remake 2.RE Zero Remake 3. RE CVX remake 4.RE 9 But we will probably get re 9 first and then remakes
I agree. I didn't think about this ahead of time but so many people are interested in this. I think baking both games into one and having both an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign would be really great. It would do wonders for tying the stories together.
I don’t understand the beef with re 0 😢 the inventory system was the biggest puzzle in the franchise and actually made the game about survival not run and gun. I remember I left my shotgun and ran into a boss fight with a tyrant by the train wreck, I was terrified😅
I think it's more that time hasn't been kind to it. It's just archaic and frustrating I suppose. I definitely prefer the game to be more puzzle based rather than run-and-gun like you say, that's why I have so many issues with 6! I can see where you're coming from. I think for a lot of players it was just a nightmare with some guns taking up two slots or having to drop items and run back and forth. It just hasn't aged well I guess! I think a fresh coat of paint for Zero would make it a lot more likeable. I know there are people who really love the original, but I think a remake of Zero could get some new appreciation for it!
The Wesker in RE4R, in both looks and sounds extremely underwhelming. So if he is similar in RE5R I will be severely disappointed.
Hard agree. I'm not a fan of his voice actor or model at all in the 4 remake. He just looks like an old bloke.
Same with the voice of Ada. Why didn't they take the same voice actress from RE2R?
@@davyheijlands1956 Man, the voice of Ada is SO bad. No passion at all.
@@edd_TV i don't think its fair to say she has no passion, her voice actress was very excited to voice ada and understood her as well. its ok to not like the performance, but there was effort. and adas voice was recast for good reason from 2r as well
@@ro8213 It just didn’t translate very well at all. Maybe it’s because she was just poorly written. Her first encounter with Leon in the remake is so bad. I don’t doubt she was excited for the role, but it was pretty flat
Should be 1, CV, then 5. We need the whole Wesker arc
Hook it up to my veins! Give us 'The Wesker Trilogy'!
Re1 and 0 together so we can get a real character arc for rebecca chambers
1 already got remade, no need for that.
@@ChiefMedicPururu I think the only way we can get another version of RE1 is if they completely change it; similarly to how they have done Final Fantasy 7 Remake. They could give us new/altered storylines, completely different gameplay etc. It would have to be a reimagining of RE1 because the Remake still holds up really well!
@@ChiefMedicPururu coming from someone who deeply enjoys the RE1 remake from GameCube, it definitely is needed. All of the new players that have come into the franchise since the RE engine remakes have dropped are not going to play that game. A modern remake in the RE engine is what is needed, giving us a concise true ending to the mansion.
My personal choice would be Code Veronica as that was my guilty pleasure in the franchise. Plus I am interested in seeing how they handle Alfred Ashford and if they can make Steve less annoying
I don't think there's any chance of that Claire insult flying in 2024 onwards! But I agree. Whilst this video is about Wesker, Alfred is such an interesting talking point for CV! I think given Carlos' transformation in RE3's Remake, Steve could definitely get a glow up! Fingers crossed!
💯
It's quintessential RE. The most excited I was for the story was as a teen playing Code V, then they just went off the rails with the story in RE4-6
@@jarlwhiterun7478 I really agree with this; much as I love RE5 the direction of the franchise became very ridiculous very quickly.
RE was always ridiculous @@edd_TV
Tbf it's good that RE4 remake can leave people questioning themselves about who is Wesker. That will only make them dig deeper into the franchise, which is a good thing!
That is true, it's a nice way to put a positive spin on it!
Code Veronica should be before RE5, and then maybe the first game remaster in the RE engine. But yes, CV needs to be first
CV is the most important, for sure. I'd be quite happy to go CV into 5 and then back to RE1. I really want RE1 but in terms of bridging Wesker and building hype for the RE5 Remake, it has to be CV!
@@edd_TV Right now CV, and zero are in development. Both will be launched in a very short Succession. This was leaked by twitters and insiders and also confirmed by capcom.
And RE 9 is also in dev, but will come in a later date.
Also RE1 will not get a remake since it's allredy remade. Maybe in future, who knows.
@@viniciustorres3318 That's exciting. I really hope they deliver!
@@viniciustorres3318 Yeah we'll have to wait and see. Another remake could potentially be a reimagining and they could alter a few things in this new timeline if they wanted; similarly to how the Final Fantasy 7 remake has happened. I'm not very hopeful they will do it any time soon, but I'd love to see it! Fingers crossed.
I can already tell this guy gets it just from the title and thumbnail. Capcom has put themselves in a weird position here. Very excited to watch.
I hope you enjoy! Do let me know your thoughts afterwards!
I would love to see a remake of Albert Wesker's campaign's from umbrella chronicles.
@@Bardia006plus1That would be awesome.
If RE5 doesn't have Chris punching a boulder in the remake we riot. The man hit the gym FOR A REASON
Hahaha! I agree, it has to happen!
Stroyline wise CV should be done before RE5
Agreed, it would be so weird to go straight into 5. I kinda wish they did CV before 4, but 4 is regarded as the 'best' for a lot of people so I get it. Fingers crossed CV is next!
Everything started in RE0 & 1 for Wesker and from what I remember, he worked in the shadows against Umbrella with Birkin as his accomplice on the inside. A remake of those two games could expand on that and maybe more (like the virus that turned Wesker into the superhuman he became).
This was very well done! I'm glad to have helped out.
Thanks again my friend, appreciate you!
I think Capcom's main difficulty when it comes to all the important Wesker Games is finding a different design for Chris for each one. They have to make sure he looks like an entirely different character each time after all.
Haha, with Wesker's voice changing along the way too it seems. The inconsistencies were crazy in that respect!
I've been saying this exact same thing. They need to build up the Redfield/Wesker story before remaking 5 and finishing their story. Well done! Earned my sub!
So glad to hear I'm not alone with this! I'm pleased to hear it resonated well with you. Thank you so much!
Wesker face is like Arnold Schwarzenegger T-800 with sunglasses and blonde hair
Now I'm imagining Wesker voiced by Arnold. 'C'man, Chris. Do it! KILL ME!'
If it's worth anything, the original re5 was my first experience with Wesker, and he's still my favourite Resident Evil character
That is certainly worth something. I think he's brilliant in 5!
Exactly this. Re5 brought in so many people unfamiliar with the franchise by appealing to what was popular gaming at the time. I get yes there will be people who don't know who he is but I feel like it's going to be such a small amount of people that it won't be a problem. But I'm hoping for a cv remake next anyway.
I left the same comment. For me , it didn’t matter that I didn’t know who he was, I was only concerned with his current status in the game I was playing.
Hes a soap opera supervillain in 5 it's fantastic
They really need to put out remakes of re1 and re code veronica before doing re5 remake.
I'd love to see them. I don't think RE1 is super necessary, that's more just a wish of my own, but I would love it. They could make the Spencer Mansion so damn scary.
@@edd_TV
Lost In Nightmares DLC for Resident Evil 5 was just a taste
@@All-due-respect-I-disagree True, I loved that!
Albert Wesker in the 2023 remake of “Resident Evil 4” sounds intimidating. I hope Burnatowski reprises his role as Wesker in remakes of “Resident Evil 0”, “Resident Evil 1”, “Resident Evil: Code Veronica” and “Resident Evil 5”.
I think there is potential there. I don't want them to recast him or anything. It's more the model that bothers me I think. He definitely comes across more 'real' and sinister than the RE5's comic book villain style of Wesker many know and love. It's possible they will keep him, but they did recast Ada's voice actor, so I'm not sure. We'll have to wait and see!
@@edd_TV I heard that Lily Gao got a lot of backlash, but I didn’t find anything wrong with Lily Gao doing Ada Wong.
@@michaellynes3540 I wasn't super impressed with her personally but I know some people really liked her. I felt she was super quiet. There were times where I actually had to turn the volume up, haha You are right though, if you look at posts on Reddit and such, the backlash is extreme!
@@edd_TV Those who posted those backlashes are probably just trolls trying to get attention on the internet.
I am very scared for RE0 or CV Remake since it appears that Capcom will enlist team B to do them (Re3 Remake) instead of Team A (RE 2 and 4 Remake) i REALLY hope that if it's the case Team B has learn their lesson with RE3 and step up, specially since they would have to work with a game that was not very popular to begin with and they would have to turn that around, unlike team A that had the best entries as reference (OG 2 and 4).
P.S. I love your video you explain yourself marvelously.
That is concerning. I would like to think given how poor RE3R was received (even if I did enjoy it in some parts) they would put their best people on the job in future! CV seems to have a lot of fans and I really hope that and any other game they plan on doing in the future really gets the love it deserves!
Also thank you so much for your kind words. I really appreciate that!
This is very well done, I've subscribed.
Thank you! I was really nervous about creating something like this because it's very different to anything I've done before. I'm so glad to hear you liked it! Thank you for your support :)
@@edd_TV You're most welcome, as a communicator you have a knack for it, please keep going 👍
My personal choice is RE1. I still would love to see it in the RE Engine, make it really scary!
And of course.... RE0. Gotta give my girl Rebecca more love :D
RE2 Remake scared the crap out of me at times, so it would be amazing to see what they could do with RE1. Maybe some fun opportunities for a DLC too? I hope you will get your wish for RE0 in time too. Rebecca definitely deserves to shine in the remakes, the most underrated character!
One thing that would also be in favor of RE0 would be that Marcus is mentioned quite a lot in 5 iirc.
My personal choice is Code Veronica though another remake of Resident Evil 1 would also be welcomed at this point, I also think they should atleast HD Remaster the Resident Evil Outbreak games for current consoles.
I think Code Veronica has to be the most popular choice, for sure! There is so much untapped potential with that game I feel. Hopefully we get some news soon! The outbreak games would be very interesting too!
So like. You guys know RE4R Wesker is based on the RE4 Wesker, not the RE5 version right? RE4R Wesker is exactly how he should've been for RE4R.
That's not incorrect, but it's still important they attempt to tell a coherent story for newcomers to the franchise. Wesker from the remakes doesn't need to mimic the OG, but it's still important that he is explained. I'm quite happy for this new VA to put their own mark on the character. Copying D.C Douglas' version would be a pointless exercise I think.
Forget Wesker, I need Jill sandwich in 4K
They better not remove that line, it would make a new remake unplayable
Here's my question, because i never played 0. Is it really THAT important that it cannot be summarized in an RE1make again? Couldn't it just be the intro for that game or just have lore like pieces of paper or dialogue sprinkled across?
That's a really great question and I think you could absolutely bake it into an RE1 remake! You could easily do both an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign and play both games back-to-back! I think that would be a great idea. It would bridge the games really nicely. I think they would likely do paper and dialogue stuff too, yeah! I don't think Zero is needed personally unless they REALLY want to expand on the likes of Marcus, Birkin and Wesker. And of course fleshing out Bravo team would be a lot nicer considering the game is supposed to be about them! It's not as important as RE1 but it is where it all started. It's rumoured to be the next one so everybody in the comments say! Nothing is confirmed though.
@@edd_TV Nothing is true unless it comes from THE source, but they could drag out the story (again) if they wanted to by making (and re-making) such titles like 0 and Code V. Feels like a waste to me but if it's profitable and not sub-part quality wise then i guess it's a good idea to do them again.
@@XpertGreekGamer I think it's important for modern audiences, yeah. It definitely feels cash-grabby (especially when you consider how RE3R was received) but I would like to think they have learned lessons. I'm interested to see how they could modernise these games and what changes they would make, both systematically and narratively! If it does bomb, at least we still have the originals to fall back on. Like you say, there's so much money to be made. I think eventually they will blast through them all.
Honestly, I don't want an RE5 Remake because I prefer Albert Weker's Character the way it Ended in a Satisfying Conclusion to his Arc as a Villain, but I do think a Remake of "RE: Code Veronica X" is definitely the safest Choice because there is a lot Things that needed to be Fixed from the Original, like better Voice Acting, better Pacing (because the Prison Island Level takes forever to Finish through), properly improved Gunplay (because all Zombies and Monsters are absolute Bullet Sponges) and of course the Introduction of a playable Wesker with his own Story Campaign outside of Special Features/Bonus Modes like Mercenaries.
I really don't like the Wesker we've seen in the Remake so far. He's peak in 5 for me. I do wonder if an RE5 ending would end the same way or if they would take it in a new direction. I do think it should probably be faithful to the original. Code Veronica is the best choice, that game could really do with a new coat of paint. A Wesker Campaign would be a really cool idea!
Yall don't want this remake or that remake but buy the game ND start jizzing all on it, yall weird af 😂
It would be safe to remake the first resident evil again because everyone already likes that game
@@internettraveler8666 That's true, but I think so many are really happy with the '02 remake and really prefer the fixed cameras. I really want to see a more modern take on it personally but I understand fans love for the originals. I do agree though, I don't think it's a bad idea because it's so beloved.
So far Code Veronica staying as a spin-off not getting a remake so fixed won't happen it's stay were it is nothing else.
With a proper writing Remake and 0 could have neatly fit into a single game. As 2 different campaigns with unique intervowen stories and gameplay aspects maybe. Or as a single campaign with the perspective changing from Rebecca to Chris midway through - the first part establishes Umbrella and the main story points and the second introduces Wesker adding the context to the first part for example. Sure, there's no way it's happening but it still could allow for some creative approaches. The gameplay and exploration integrity would be the priority for me personally though
I really love the idea of this. 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign could work so well together! Apparently Zero and Code Veronica are 'confirmed' as the next remakes, at least the rumour mill says. I don't think there is anything concrete out there. I think you're onto something though! If they want to present Zero then they could absolutely link it with 1. I think that would be great!
When you mentioned about new players playing this game would be wandering who wester is and why he has those powers and such, that was exactly what got me interested in him in the first place when I played the original code Veronica back in the day, that was my first experience with Wesker, and then after that, again on the Re1 remake, so I kind of learned about him a bit backwards, but I don't mind that at all, and I do agree that they should remake the older games before the re5 remake, cuz I don't think it's necessarily A bad thing to see Wesker today and learn about him in a backwards way, it just makes it more interesting to wander about his character.
I agree, it's not the end of the world whatever they choose to do! I've used the example of the Star Wars films backtracking with the prequels, so it would be fine I'm sure! I just think Code Veronica would build some serious hype for 5. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts and experiences!
The Original Code Veronica is not even playable in the current gen and PC
Not officially at least
I love the game, but Capcom seems to have abandon it
@@Yogarpg It's a strange one. It's almost as if they consider it a side-story or non canon, which is crazy to me because it highlights the importance of Chris, Wesker and of course how much stronger he's become. Not to mention his survival from RE1! It feels like they don't consider it a mainline game, despite what a dedicated fanbase it has. It makes perfect sense to bring back Code Veronica.
I think if they do a second RE1 remake, RE0make needs to be included even if it’s a DLC released later. And then have a mode to where you can choose to play RE0make first and second RE1make, after both games have been purchased. RE0make needs to show more of bravo team and Billy Coen. RE0make can have the scenario campaign from RE6 and retain the co-op system from RE0 and RE5’s multiplayer. The prologue of the game takes place in 1988 with James Marcus about to be assassinated by Wesker and Birkin. But it won’t show Marcus or Wesker and Birkin’s face until it shows again in the climax. Similar to how the did Death Island with Dylan saying “stop I!” In the prologue and show it again in the middle of the film. Have one campaign play as Rebecca and Billy and the other campaign as the bravo team and have it lead up to RE1 and see their fates. Show more experiments of the mutated animals like how Ada mentioned the giant gator in RE2make. See Billy’s past in Africa 1997 have a young Sheva Alomar witness it in hiding with the 23 people killed as a connection to RE5. Also have the train sequence be a bit longer and have one part of the train have light flickering on and off. The scorpion battle stays. When in the URC, have it feel different and expand more on the concept and not make it feel like a carbon copy of the Spencer mansion. When Billy has to rescue Rebecca, if she falls, instead of a automatic game over, it will be a exclusive segment/mission for Rebecca to see her more experience and know more about Umbrella and the Spencer mansion. Billy would also still be alone and have his own mission on his own. It would be similar to the choice system from RE3: Nemesis. Also players would hear a running gag of bats around first of raccoons forest when players roam around there and it’s not until the giant bat shows up but players would use searchlights to blind it to harm it and use their weapons or other to kill it. When players play as bravo team, they will encounter more zombies and monsters and Edward would be the first one to play as until he runs to Rebecca. Wesker and Birkin would show more scenes and expand their roles by not revealing too much of what’s going on in RE2 and RE3. Rebecca would be scared of Billy in the remake compared to the original a bit until she trusts him when he rescues her from the fall. The ending of RE0make would be when Rebecca and Billy part ways and players would have a choice to continue as Rebecca in the second RE1 section in the Spencer mansion and see her point of view. Code Veronica needs a remake and actually show the scene of Claire contacting Leon. Leon is with Ark Thompson speaking to Claire about where she is located. Leon and Ark tell Chris that she is over at rock fort island. Ark also mentions and references Sheena Island without revealing too much. The game can have a choice to play as Chris or Claire in a player select and see their story. There will be also be times where co-op will play as role similar to RE0 and RE5-RE6. Claire with Steve, and Chris with Claire. Steve will be more likable and still be 17 in a few hours and see his maturity from when he turns 18 hours later. Steve will have Carlos’s attitude, Leon’s personality, and Luis’s charisma in one. And will show more of Wesker referencing events that happened in RE1, RE1make, and RE0 to connect the games. Have a hand-to-hand 3rd person fighting combat with Chris and Wesker similar to T3: ROTM game, Tekken series and 3D MK games and have players use objects to throw. RE5make needs to include all cut content such as: merchant (voiced by Paul Mercier from OG RE4), typewriters, zombies, tyrant, night and boat mission, and Barry. Have Chris start to get little PTSD about events from RE1, CV and Revelations. Have Sheva be more cooperative and improve AI. And connect her story with Billy’s 1997 mission with the 23 people murdered. Sheva had some family and friends murdered. Her parents died three years later, but her new family killed made her feel lost. Sheva was 11 years old and tries to go after the people responsible. Sheva mentions Billy’s mission to Chris Redfield. RE5make can also have themes involving prejudice but in a positive way. And maybe also have another Sheva who was a member in Africa and it turned out it was a clone similar how in RE6, there was an Ada clone name Carla. I think these games should be remade in that order. I also think that Survivor should also be remade in first person like RE7 and RE8 with an over the shoulder perspective like RE2make-RE4make. And see the ending with Ark escaping and sees Leon Kennedy and they tell Chris that Claire is at rock fort island. RE6make can be remade as well but just make it less repetitive and polish the storyline. Make Simmons feel like Major Zero from MGS and Emperor palpatine from Star Wars of RE. Simmons needs to feel more threatening and terrifying than ever. Because of how Leon lost over 70,000 people including the president because of him. For Chris campaign, make it darker and have themes similar to MGS5 showing how revenge can impair your mind and mess up the mission and the costs of war that comes with the cycle of revenge against “Ada.” It also deals with how Wesker almost killed Jill and he gets more PTSD than before. Chris would even walk up and see lots of bodies with blood around him. And Chris campaign shows horror aspects of war in survival to keep the story feel more horrifying. Leon’s campaign just needs to be improved since it was basically the horror campaign that other campaigns tried different. Leon can remember moments of what happened in Death island and Degeneration. Have audiences see Leon witness all the 70,000 deaths even the president in a horrifying, agonizing way. Jake and sherry’s campaign will be like RE1-RE2 how it’s a survival horror and they are rookies. They will show the horror of being out into the snow and see mutated snowman’s or yetis. And even have surprising shocking moments like a tank coming through without warning. Jake and Sherry talk deep about their father’s past and legacy. Jake’s story is sort of like Luke Skywalker how he doesn’t want to be like his father darth Vader, and with Jake he tries to do the opposite of what Albert Wesker wanted to do. Bruce, Fong and Ark make cameo appearances. Ark can be one of Leon’s pilot. I think RE9 should be released after these remakes for connecting plots and tying with RE9. I also think Outbreak can be remade by having Raccoon city as a huge open world and have a File 3 included as events that take place between general timeline of end of RE0 and RE2/RE3. And even remake Dead Aim. But Survivor can be DLC to second RE1 remake. RE0 mentioned in the beginning and referenced Raccoon city, Rock Fort Island and Sheena island. Some Survivor, CV X and Re0makes can be dlc to second RE1 make. But I think those dlc games need to be bigger and better basically like how RE4make’s separate ways did and improvement over RE3make.
Somebody else suggested Zero being a DLC for RE1 and I think that's such an awesome idea, it would tie them together beautifully. I love your comparisons with Major Zero from MGS and Palpatine from Star Wars. You make some great observations and suggestions and it's really exciting to see what they will come up with! Thank you for taking the time to type up such a detailed comment, this was a very enjoyable read.
@@edd_TV You’re welcome. Thank you for making this video. I thought of RE9make of just being included with the second RE1make because it would make more sense for RE1 to be remade again a second time because they both take place a day apart and Rebecca and Wesker are in both games but, the DLC thing could work out and have that feature to have RE0make play as the first part and RE1make as the second part if players choose that option. Or choose it however they want to play the story.
@@solidmage1720 I really like the idea of 0 being 1's DLC. I saw some interesting fan art of Resident Evil 9 titled as 'Resident Evil SIX' but the 'IX' was highlighted to indicate 9, but a reimagining of 6. I think that would be fascinating but I'm not sure how people would feel about the franchise going backwards a little bit from Village. It's hard to know what 9 will hold!
@@edd_TV RE9 could be like RE6. I do remember seeing RE9 being titled RE SIX. That could also be a subtle way of it being RE6 in secret but still being RE9. I think for RE9 to be like RE6, it needs the death island protagonists and Billy Coen as playable characters. The story takes place immediately after Village and before Shadows Of Rose. Mia will still play a huge part of the story and is with the death island characters and Billy Coen to take out the BSAA, connections, Umbrella and the virus. The villains would be Jessica, Raymond, Nikolai, Brandon Bailey, and Alex/Natalya Wesker. The game can have the team system similar to RE0 where players can be alone (solo) and co-op (team). The player select from RE1-RE2, Choice system and alternate paths from RE3: Nemesis, chapter system from RE4-RE5, scenario campaign and timeline from RE6, and alternate endings from RE1 and RE7. If they say RE9 is going to be open world like how village was, Capcom just needs it imagine open world raccoon city revisiting every single area from RE1-RE3. The story of RE9 can tie up and connect previous games into this game. And even have themes of fear of getting older, fear of change, fear of dying and passing on to a new generation. RE9 can be like MGS4. I also think RE9 should have death variations like how OG RE4 did. I think Billy Coen can play a huge part of the story meeting the other characters such as Jill, Leon, Claire and Chris. How he understands how it feels to be betrayed by a leader. Leon also remembers when Krauser betrayed Leon because the government betrayed Krauser and Billy can share that pain. And even Wesker betraying both Jilla and Chris. Chris, Jill, Leon, and Claire were a bit skeptical about him at first because he was a wanted felon until Billy convinced them what happened. What if after the Albert Wesker left Birkin and Umbrella, he called umbrella about Billy because he already saw umbrellas’s intentions and tells Umbrella and RPD to capture him? Immediately after Billy and Rebecca parted ways, Umbrella captured Billy to perform experiments on him and Billy accidentally exposed to himself to a virus and has to lay low despite him being wanted for murder. Billy Coen is like David Banner from the 1977 Incredible Hulk series. How he is drifting away and has to find a vaccine to treat and cure him. Carlos and HUNK try to find him. and That’s when he found Rebecca to help him get better. And if Barry returned in RE9, he feels guilty about what happened in RE1 when he betrayed Chris and Jill because of Wesker and now he knows that he doesn’t have time left. Alex/Natalya Wesker plans to kill Barry because of Wesker and even Chris and Claire because they confronted Wesker in the past.
I think CV should definitely be next. As much as I love RE and Wesker I just can't play it. I have tried but it's controls are aweful. I really want to experience the story. And it is absolutely needed before RE5 remake for context if nothing else. I know that CV was the most wanted remake in the capcom survey so hopefully they will listen otherwise what was the point in asking.
I agree with you. I didn't actually play it myself entirely. My uncle owned it and I watched him play it, with me occasionally doing bits and pieces here and there. I fought the Tyrant on the plane etc. I do recall the controls being very janky too and it just really isn't a pleasant experience in this day and age. I'm glad you're on the same page as me! Context is the most important thing. I know some people are kinda just like 'Who cares?' 'They can google it!' but that's not good enough for me. New players should be able to have a coherent experience with the game and story too! Judging from the comments on this video, I think CV is definitely the front runner! I think eventually we will see all the games, it's just a matter of which one they think is best next. I really want to see RE1 again, but you are right. CV is the most important. Love your username btw!
@@edd_TV I was first introduced to Wesker in Dead by daylight. I had never played any of the RE games but I was so intrigued by is character so I started playing RE from the ground up and now have 1000s if hours in RE especially Re5 and RE4R. The only games I haven't actually played are zero and CV. I know dead by daylight has made a lot of new Wesker fans as he has been in the top 10 most played killers for over 2 years now. DBD has for sure made a lot of people want to play RE because of Wesker. So from any point of view it makes so much sense to flesh out his stort for the newer fans.
@@WeskersWidow I haven't played DBD but I knew him and Nemesis were in it. I think that's awesome. It's cool how it introduces people to the franchise too!
@@edd_TV They did a really good job at implementing Wesker and Nemi into DBD. I actually had D C Douglas voice my alerts for Twitch and UA-cam.
@@WeskersWidow Love that!
Were is Dino Crisis or Parasite Eve remake? I never got a chance to play this games.
I have never played either too. I have heard they are both amazng.
Instead of another remake, they should give us a Wesker only game from Spencer Manor to his lava bath, tasked with fighting the heros. They can call it Weskers Bad Hair Day.
Hahaha. A Wesker game would be dope. Somebody suggested if they remade RE1 there could be a DLC where you play as Wesker escaping the mansion. I feel like there is definitely some untapped potential there. I just wish he was more like his RE5 counter-part. I'm really not keen on this new Wesker in the RE4 Remake at all.
Is it wrong that I would like to play a version of the original Resident Evil that DOESN'T have fixed camera?
I don't think it's wrong! I think it's certainly iconic to how those games were played but I think if we saw a reimagining of it, it wouldn't work as well. I suppose that's what will really set apart a 'remaster' and a 'remake'; a remaster should ideally just be tidying up the game whilst keeping all of the core elements. A remake can allow a completely different spin on the game, from the way it's played to the narrative. The Final Fantasy 7 Remake is a good example of this I think.
It would make the most sense to do RE1. Then we’ll have RE1, RE2, RE3, RE4 in the new engine and with the same voice and face actors etc. Then do CV, then RE5.
I agree. It would be nice to keep it all consistent.
Love how Wesker’s voice changes in UC after his resurrection. DC Douglas brought such a chilling effect to that performance, he will always be the voice of Wesker as far as I’m concerned
I wholeheartedly agree! I feel words like 'Iconic' and 'Legendary' are thrown around so easily in this day and age, but it's exactly what he is. He was brilliant.
Honestly everyone I've ever talked to who played RE5 said they loved it. My wife and I also loved it when we went through it. I think there's just some haters out there who just get a kick out of trashing something for no reason.
I think you're right. People will always hate, and it's fine. We all enjoy different things. There are definitely things I like about 5 and things I don't. The boss fights aren't exactly fabulous, but I thought the co-op was amazing. I'd be really excited to play a remake of it. 5 doesn't have a Resident Evil 'feel' to me, but I still had fun with it!
It's because it and 6 are horrible resident evil games, but good games as their own thing.
Basic things that Capcom doesn't understand even with their own characters... Albert Wesker is Resident Evil
Agreed. He's an icon! I hope whatever happens next they will do him justice.
I remember as a kid seeing the Resident evil 6 trailer with Chris and Leon fighting. Yeah that was my Infinity War tbh
I remember it well too! It was really exciting. I just can't forgive what they did to both of those characters in that game. That being said, if people like 6 that's great too. It just really didn't do it for me. Seeing those two in the trailer pointing the guns at each other was dope though.
@edd_TV I respect your opinion but don't see it. I like how Chris had that depression arch then lost Piers the dude who brought him back. Also Leon going after Ada and holding her was pretty great, Sherry Birkin being back with powers was amazing too. The gameplay was so fun aswell not having to rely on a gun or knife. Honestly the games that had me lose faith in RE was 7 and 8(the only resident evil game I haven't played
@@2.0wen Oh don't get me wrong, Piers was brilliant. He was the MVP! I wasn't so hot on Chris being an amnesiac or how serious Leon was. He felt like a completely different character to me, but his moment with Ada was nice and a long time coming! It was nice to get that pay off.
@edd_TV Its been awhile but I don't remember Chris having amnesia, I assume it was why he was at that bar. I must have seen it as heavy depression and drinking, but I'll admit I figured Finn dying just had that affect on him despite seeming odd. I think Leon being that way was more on Matt Mercer, I adore Matt but his Leon is pretty unique. He definitely makes some quips but they don't land the way they did in 4 or Darkside Chronicles with Paul Mercier, but it could definitely be argued it was the writing. Matt did good in the Damnnation movie, though.
@@2.0wen Yeah it was post-traumatic amnesia. It just felt a bit weird for me. I really didn't get on with Jake being Wesker's son either. I think you're right about Mercer too,and I agree, he's awesome! I have to say, it's refreshing to hear someone say they enjoyed 6, so thank you for sharing your thoughts and feelings!
They should add more content in the beginning of re5r maybe a chapter or two with Jill and Chris and try to explain history between them and Wesker if they aren't gonna remake any other re
That would be fun. I really enjoyed their DLC in RE5 but it would be interesting if they wanted to expand on that. I would like to see more Jill. It felt strange that a legacy character didn't get much screen time at all. She did have her DLC with Josh too but it didn't feel like a lot.
For a smaller channel you made a good point on why tf they pulled billy out their asses and why tf wasn't Rebecca's team more prominent in a game about them same with nemesis in 3make and brad brad became zombie chow and nemesis killed 0 stars members but killed a shit load of of ubcs and civies
Thanks! It's something that definitely should be addressed if they want to remake 0 at any point. Keeping Billy is fine, but please can we have more of a focus on Bravo team! It's also really bizarre how Rebecca goes from being an absolute champ to a chump in RE1. It's a great opportunity to address these inconsistencies.
Personally for me I want a code Veronica remake because that game is very important to resident evil lore in my opinion
It seems to be most people's first choice, understandably so!
@@edd_TV indeed
I don’t care if he died in 5 just bring him back. One of my favorite villains in gaming
Hell yeah!
Zero wasn’t a bad game per-say but it definitely had it’s issues and could have been much better. The problem i have with Zero is it adds so many plot holes and inconsistencies that the series makes so much more sense without it. There was nothing wrong with Resident Evil 1 being the beginning, everything was explained and it made sense, so really Zero probably shouldn’t exist.
I agree. If they want to do it again then it's a great opportunity to fix things but I'm also quite happy to let it go. I love how much of a badass Rebecca is in Zero but then they completely undo that with 1. Enrico's more focused on Billy rather than the zombies, there is just so much weird stuff going on in that game; Doctor Marcus being the biggest offender. You are right, we didn't need Zero as they explain in RE1 that Bravo team went missing and Alpha went to rescue them, and that's honestly all we need in terms of a baseline. It was a nice idea that they tried to explore it with Zero, but it didn't work for me. I would be interested in them attempting to try again but I could live without it.
Well the “reveal” was done in RE4R, when originally it was CV. CV is kinda up in the air
That is true. In this timeline, the events of RE1 may not have even happened (but they probably did)
I guess if they do an RE1 Remake (imho the RE1 HD edition still holds up, only needs better dialogue), they could integrate RE0 into it. As a Separate Ways kind of dlc.
Cut down the needless parts, to make it shorter, maybe cut out Billy Coen, since he never reappeared, so I'm sorry but he's not important. Maybe to have it more in line with RE1, have Rebecca do no big action scenes like Jill and Chris, have her be unarmed, not killing two tyrants, make it a true survival experience.
They could also add a bit of RE2R like feel to it if they make Chris and Jill parts like an A and B scenario, to make it feel like both path happens. And finally, add a Ghost Survivor like dlc, that has you escape the mansion as Wesker. (preferably none of these should be dlc, but be part of the base game, but we know how Modern Gaming works...)
A few people have suggested Zero being a part of a DLC for a 1 Remake. I think it's a cool idea and would tie the games together really well. I love your idea of escaping the mansion as Wesker, that would be sick.
they could keep billy if they changed his story to make him appear in 5 since he already went to africa in his backstory
@@pedgone2240 That's a cool idea! I think it would be awesome if we could see him cameo in a 5 remake. It makes me sad that characters like Billy and Carlos were just swept under the rug.
I personally think that with the lengths of both 0 and 1, it would actually make sense for them to make them into one “super” remake, putting both into one longer, more cohesive chronological story of the Arklay mountains incident. It would probably still only work out around the same length as village and 4 remake and switching between Rebecca, Billy, Jill and Chris at set times in the story without the zapping system or separate campaigns would work well
Very cool idea. I would like that! I have seen a few people comment with ideas of having an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign in a fully fledged remake of both Zero and 1. It sounds like a great idea and would really tie together the stories nicely!
@@edd_TVI know if the recent rumours are true and we’re actually getting both 0 and Veronica remakes it won’t happen but it would have still been a cool idea, what I really hope is we eventually get a better cohesion between 0 and 1s stories and when they do remake 1s story again they make it into one campaign or the campaigns are different, maybe with Jill still entering the mansion through the front with Barry and Wesker, but Chris starting off in a different part of the mansion.
I’m definitely looking forward to code Veronica though, it’s always been my guilty pleasure favourite of the series, I bought a Dreamcast just so I could play it back when it released
@@keithbarraclough151 That does seem to be the rumour mill, yeah! I agree. I think they could do a much better job bridging Zero and 1. There is so much potential to explore new avenues and I would welcome any of it! I have good memories of Code Veronica, I never owned it but I used to play it with my uncle when I was a kid. He had it on the PS2!
Im guilty of wanting a re 6 remake..
Haha, I don't begrudge you for it. I'm not totally against a 6 remake but I would want so much changed, so much that it wouldn't even be recognisable to its original. There have been a few fans of 6 in the comments, I just think it would be really hard to salvage based off the original. Not an impossible job, but I don't think the demand would be there at all. Never say never though! I saw some really cool fan art of a Resident Evil 9 announcement and it was titled 'Resident Evil SIX' with the 'IX' highlighted, almost like it was Resident Evil 9 but a reimagining of 6. That would be really interesting!
I always wanted to play a Resident Evil game where I got to be Wesker
Me too! Maybe someday we can play as him in something other than the mercenaries!
next one is 9, zero and veronica and then we get 5 remake. mark my words
I could dig it. I'd be surprised if they did Zero first. I really didn't think the demand would be there for it, but I'd be happy with that!
This won't age well at all 😂😂😂
The voice actor from RE5 was amazing, straight out of a comic book kind of evil. They need to bring that back, put some LIFE in those line deliveries.
Agreed! Apparently he's in some trouble though. I think there are a lot of allegations surrounding him. I only learned of this from the comments! I agree though, D.C Douglas was immense as Wesker. I do worry that maybe it wouldn't be so good in 2023 onwards though? I'm not sure. I would love it but I don't think newer audiences would. They might find it a bit cheesy/cringe. I'm very interested to see what they will do with Wesker in an RE5R though when he's constantly in the spotlight! This new VA needs to put his stamp on the character! I just hope I'll enjoy it.
Renake Code Veronica then 5 if they plan on retelling the whole Wesker Saga.
Definitely the way to go. As much as I want to see RE1 I feel like they can insert 1 whenever they want to, but CV has to come before 5!
If they remake Code Veronica they need to make it so the player cannot leave the first room without the knife. It's too important of an item to risk leaving behind, as it is quite possible in the first section of CV to run out of ammo and get softlocked by the tyrant on the plane
I relate to this so much because this happened to me when I was younger, lol. So true!
I say we should do a Resident Evil 1 remake first so we can introduce Albert wesker a little bit better Also everybody know about The stars unit in Resident Evil 2 and 3 remake And also the incident about the Mansion incident it will be cool to actually go through it in the remake universe I think it wouldn't feel right to do A RE5 remake and the code Veronica remake with out the first resident evil to set the foundation for the Chris Redfield and Albert Wesker Rivalry I mean I love Resident Evil 4 remake 1 of my favorites but they should have done Resident Evil one And a code Veronica remake before the fourth remake Because Actually code Veronica happened before the fourth one And plus everything would makes sense with Wesker and everything else
That's a great point. It would be nice to get some more focus on S.T.A.R.S too! It's all good and well knowing that Nemesis is going to kill S.T.A.R.S members in the RE3 remake, but some context and backstory on them would be good!
My biggest fear with re1 is the length of the game.
We dont want another re3 remake, do we?
Re1 and 0 together on the other hand would be enough.
@@seimen4348 You make a good point. If any of these remakes are treated the same as 3 then it's not even worth doing them imo. RE3 was such a rush, it was a damn shame. All the remakes have great potential but they need to actually want to do them for reasons other than money. 3 was a slap in the face and if they treat the likes of RE1 or Code Veronica like that, people aren't going to hold back.
@@edd_TV Let us hope 3 remake fanboys don't hear about your dislike of their favorite game ever created
@@nikkeli3942 I honestly didn't hate 3 but the pacing was just cracked. It was so fast! Carlos was a real saving grace though, that boy was awesome.
Serious note, we already have a RE1 remake that's gold to this day. However, to do REmake 5, 1 and then Code Veronica must be done since the three have everything to do with Wesker and his relationship to Jill/Chris and the Umbrella Corp.
I do agree, the RE1 remake still holds up well to this day! A remake of RE1 wouldn't have the same feel to it either as we wouldn't get the fixed camera and so on. I just can't help but imagine how good it would look. I'm very much with you. I think they could do Code Veronica, then 5 and back to 1 if they prefer to. That wouldn't be the end of the world for me, but I think it would make more sense to these games in order.
I like the idea of resident evil 1 *remake remake* to have resident evil 0 remake as a dlc
I was thinking about this! I wonder what they would do for a DLC? 0 would be crazy good! They could tie them together so nicely. That's a great idea.
Please for the love of GOD don't make RE0 dlc
@@sugoi9680I don't think they would. I would be surprised! I think it would be a fully-fledged game.
Rockford island is actual a good location for an semi open world RE game
Very true. It has to be the most likely destination! They could flesh it out so much.
I want RE1 remake, because the mansion is the best setting of the series and pre-mutant Wesker is the best Wesker.
The mansion is superb. I know there is a lot of nostalgia there and it is the original, but it really is a spectacle. The idea of seeing it on the RE engine is so exciting to me. They could flesh out the characters more and probably provide a better connection with Zero (assuming that gets a remake too). I also think more Wesker would be great. A lot of people have suggested a DLC campaign where you escape the mansion as Wesker. That could be fun. It would be really nice to get some Wesker games generally rather than playing as him in things like Mercenaries. I also love S.T.A.R.S Wesker too!
The Remake series has been so profitable for Capcom I can’t see them rushing it too much. I am one of few who actually like RE 0 quite a bit, but I’d say RE1 > CV > RE5 makes the most sense from a lore standpoint and a fiscal standpoint.
I very much agree with you. There is so much money to be made. I think we’ll see them all, and the order isn’t super important to me. I just want it to be somewhat coherent for newcomers!
They should of done a re game where you use Umbrella Ops , Albert , Ada, hunk . More of a background game
That's a good idea. That would be pretty sweet! I think HUNK getting a story game would be really fun. His section was pretty great in RE2R, but it would be awesome to learn more about him and play as him. I guess they want to keep a lot of that mystery there, but he is really interesting!
I would also love a game where we could play as Wesker. Some did comment if they were going to remake RE1 then there could be a DLC where you play as Wesker escaping the mansion. That would be good I think. It would just be nice to play him in something other than Mercenaries!
Code veronica should have been before 3 case its actually 3. And it shows what happens to umbrella leading up to 4
I think they felt Nemesis was just a bigger draw. It was a shame it was so rushed.
I want a RE5 Remake so bad has to have co-op and DLCs tho but I also agree new players need to know these characters and what they are and have went through because I want new players to get into the IP and be as hype as I was when I saw Chris punch a Boulder the size of a house 😂
The boulder scene is truly iconic, haha. I agree. It makes complete sense to see all of these games remade to make sense for newer players to the franchise. I also 100% agree with you that the co-op and DLC's need to remain. I would even be interested in new DLCs for any of the games! For example maybe a Wesker escape from the mansion in RE1. There is a lot of potential!
If they remake one, the should make a wesker escape DLC
Being able to play as Wesker in something other than Mercenaries would honestly be amazing. I would love this!
The correct way to go should be 1, code veronica and then 5, you can still play 5 kinda fine today, RE1 needs it more and it's an opportunity to focus fully on a "Chris saga" making a trilogy of games just for his and Wesker's story, 0 in my opinion is kinda optional, it has some scenes with Wesker and all but storywise i think it can be just a DLC for RE1R, but that's the opinion of someone that didn't actually play RE0
I very much agree. I think they could do something good for Zero too but it isn't really necessary for the overall 'Chris saga' you're mentioning. It just helps flesh Wesker out a bit more I guess. I'm with you on the idea of 1, CV and then 5 though. That just makes complete sense to me.
I hope for 0 and 1 trying to go back is worse than gouging my own eyes out on camera factor alone
I think Zero, 1 and CV all need to be done in regards to helping a modern audience make sense of everything. I do agree with you regarding Zero too, I never had any fun with it. I just think modern fans of the franchise are really going to struggle go back and playing the older games.
Honestly CV could turn the Chris vs Wesker scene into a straight up fight to prepare us for RE5. Maybe shift things so Claire deals with Alexia and Chris fights Wesker
I would be down for this! I do think this remake timeline is a great opportunity to play around with the narrative and shift things about. And I don't think that's damaging to the original material either, fi anything it secures its validity because now you can have two difference experiences; I felt they did this right with RE4 Remake.
I like where your head is at. Fingers crossed!
We will probably get RE9 before another remake, and after that my money’s on a RE0 remake. Hopefully without fundamentally changing it they can add on more of Bravo Team, and further explore the history of Marcus, Wesker and Birkin.
I think so too. I think the RE9 announcement is looming. Any particular reason why you think they would do Zero next? I don't really mind which they go for next. I just hope they do them all before 5R preferably!
@ I’ve heard rumors that Capcom is afraid to revisit RE5 since the first game stirred controversy and racial tensions haven’t exactly improved since 2009. I’m sure they want to do it but want time to approach how. RE0 I think would give them an opportunity to explore co-op in a way that feels like an appropriate reimagining of the original, it makes sense as a mechanical next step and also delves into much needed backstory. Personally I hope they expand our understanding of the Leech Queen, and Billy’s backstory, and implementation of Bravo Team would be a GREAT DLC idea so that they can still generally respect the canon of the original. They could even do a Wesker DLC based on his relevant mission in Umbrella Chronicles, which would be a guaranteed sale for fans.
@@CosBlade I remember reading about that too. I think having the game set in the night time would do wonders in adding some horror/fear to the game. It always felt so weird being in so much light. I think you are right though. Similarly to the Alfred Ashford situation with CV, they need to approach these elements of the games with care.
I agree with all of your points regarding Zero. I think any changes or expanding with Zero could only be a good thing! I am desperate for a Wesker DLC too. It would be great to be able to play as him in something other than mercenaries!
I’ll also add this , my first RE I played and beat was RE4. I then moved on to play and love RE5. I had no idea who Wesker was and still regard RE5 as one of my top RE games. Maybe I’m the weird one but I don’t think the majority of audiences are going to care too much about knowing who Wesker was. All they have to do is make him a good antagonist in the game they are playing.
Also, I’ve played all the recent remakes and forced myself through the RE REMAKE (I hate tank controls and fixed camera) and I still can’t tell you anything extra about Wesker other than he was a cop/scientist working with Umbrella who might love been testing the weapons against other cops and what we figure out in RE5.
No I don't think that makes you weird at all! I think we all go into games looking for different things. I think a lot of people might feel the same as you did back in the day. They might just be happy to play a game and roll with it. I just think it's important to try and tell a coherent story and explain things for new players to the franchise. It's possible a ton of people might not care, but I still think they should try!
I think right now is the perfect time to release a zero remake with coop. I know to back to back remakes wouldn't be ideal but I think dropping it before 9 and then dropping code Veronica remake after could set up a huge banger RE5 coop game masterpiece that ties all the remakes up and ends the remake saga
Zero with co-op would be very cool actually. Nobody has suggested that! I really like the idea. People have suggested they could combined both Zero and RE1, so you could choose both 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign. That sounds really great to me too. I really love the co-op in RE5 so something like that in Zero would honestly really hit for me I think. I think drastically changing the gameplay in Zero will only be a good thing too, as it's remembered for so much frustrating stuff. And then of course like you say, the big pay off in RE5R which IS a co-op game. I really like where your head is at! Very cool ideas.
The need to hurry with the Code Veronica remake 😤 that was the first resident evil game i played. Nostalgia
Apparently both Zero and Code Veronica are the next remakes, so the rumour mill goes! Fingers crossed!
1 should definitely be next, it would introduce young Chris in the new timeline it would allow them to fix the discrepancies with the the separate playthroughs with people going missing in the beginning.
I very much agree! I can understand some fans reluctance for yet another RE1 remake, but I do think it is necessary for the modern audience.
This is so true. A new fan can play the new games, starting from RE7, going to the RE2 Remake, and build from there to get a complete storyline that still makes sense... Except for Wesker.
It might not be super important for a lot of fans. Some people have been like 'So what?' or 'Just go and play the old games', but I really wanted to shine a light on this. For me, Wesker IS Resident Evil (for the most part). Glad to hear you agree!
Not related to the video but that Ragnarok Online bgm in the outro bringa back memories.
Glad you recognised it! I use it for all of my videos!
@@edd_TV That's great. Ragnarok Online and other korean MMOs always have good sound tracks.
Been playing RO since 2005. I have a lot of fond memories from that game.
@@leorickaldana366 It makes me so happy when people recognise it. It's called 'Streamside' if you were curious of the name! I also love the music from Prontera and Payon! I have really great memories of it too!
My take on the Weaker story dilemma before the inevitable RE5 Remake is that Capcom should give us a Resident Evil Wesker Chronicles
In which we explore the character before he became the mutated maniac, it would help to better characterize him as just the bad guy, my guy is straight up diabolical.
Also the Wesker Chronicles would give us the assets to have DLC for each of the RE games (0,HD,Veronica) not worth remaking entirely and charging 70$
Also it should leave a relationship hint for wesker's son on RE6 which is I think the highlight campaign in that game.
That's a cool idea! I know some others have been interested in that too. I wonder if the demand would be there? I would love to see that. Even if it doesn't come next, I think it would be great for them to explore that! I also love your point about Jake. Jake just seemed so shoehorned into 6 so that Wesker could be a part of it, just as a memory now. That's a good thought!
Wesker Is one of the greatest Villains of all time. He is not just narcissistic, he's also tactical and has the ability to test his environments or fight or flight responses in the series. Which is why I believe he is still alive. In RE1 he was originally dead but was brought back by fans and was revealed he was still alive in Code Veronica. So if you think he died in RE5, think again! Wesker is the type to put limitations on his subordinates like Ada, Krauser, HUNK to make sure they follow through, or make adjustments in their failures or mutiny until he has no use for them. This can be summed up that he has his own clones controlled by the PG67A/W. Which in my theory means this version of Wesker is either 6 of 7 versions or the 67th version of Albert Wesker. Knowing this it means Wesker is trying to make sure his own clones do NOT challenge Wesker Prime!
I LOVE the idea of Wesker surviving RE5. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if they did a 'Somehow Palpatine returned' moment with Wesker. It wouldn't even be beyond the realms that he cloned himself or something, yeah! Haha I love the title 'Wesker Prime'. I love your passion! Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
@@edd_TV No problem. To make another note on the "clone Theory" it was in the LOst In Nightmares scene when Wesker and Spencer were chatting and Wesker tells Spencer "You saying I was 'Manufactured'?". Which tells me all the mothers in the Wesker program were surrogates to Spencer's DNA and were tested on with viruses like how the AShford twins were in Code Veronica. And by coincidence the blonde hair is the mutation effect of the viruses used. So Wesker Prime is actually Spencer's kid or "CLONE" just like Alexia and Alfred are clones of Veronica's DNA and as stated in CV and RE5 the blonde hair is the side effect of the virus used. I am reason to believe HUNK is also a clone because he has his hair blonde and slicked back like Wesker in the RE3 Epilogue.
@@mosj9876 That is fascinating stuff! I think you're onto something here, haha.
The order I think they should do is do Code Veronica next, then RE5 with stronger emphasis on making the co op better, then implement those co op mechanics in a Zero remake. I am mixed on a second remake on RE1 cause the OG remake is so good and is available on most platforms now so I can take or leave another one.
I like the sound of that. What changes would you like to see with the co-op? I do agree, I think the remake for 1 was good but the prospect of a newer one on the RE engine really excites me; that being said I think other titles deserve it more, Code Veronica especially!
I agree with you. We need veronica and 0 first. Re5 isn't even that old.
Yeah RE5 still looks pretty solid today! I wouldn't say no to a remake but no way should it be the priority right now.
Honestly, regarding re zeros popularity, capcom’s better off making re zero just a long dlc for a re 1 remake
This would make sense since both games take place during the same relative time. Besides, they already have Birkin, Wesker, Chris, Jill and Barry models in the re engine
I think that would be a solid idea. Somebody suggested having them baked into one game with two different campaigns: 'Alpha' and 'Bravo'. That would work pretty well I think.
Imo , the order should be 1, 0, CV, 5 , you kinda need to have experienced the Arklay mansion incident to fully understand 0 imo. I also think there should be a “new” game or at least a dlc where you play as Chris taking on umbrella Europe, we hear about it a lot but I don’t think we’ve ever actually seen him there. Imo it would build up remake Chris nicely
From which game is the intro monologue?!?
It was part of Resident Evil's 5th Anniversary. it's called 'Wesker's Report'!
Imagine they remake 0 and 1 into one huge game, and you can choose which story you want to play first
Very cool idea! People have mentioned the games being broken up to an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo campaign'!
I say code Veronica or 0 weskers role explains a lot of him in the shadows
I agree! I feel like nobody talks enough about Zero and maybe if they make Wesker and Bravo team a bit more prominent in it, it will make for a better experience. I think both Zero and CV are vital before we see anything about RE5R.
As a slight RE connoisseur myself...I've literally been nervous and anxious about what they were gonna do next... it's nice to find someone who has the same concerns and views on this situation as i do... because to me...Wesker ve Chris is the biggest showdown in the entire RE universe. RE6 wasnt a good end to the series (i dont count RE7 and 8) and Chris vs Wesker is like the superbowl of the series...so... I'd be FINE with delayed gratification just to get it right. The remake of 5 could be the coup de gras of the series...but we need REmakes of 0...and CG first to REALLLLLYA amp up the rivalry. If they just make remake RE5 in the next year or two...it will feel meaningless. No build up. And to me...the series culminates with Wesker vs Chris. And the rest are supporting characters to make this happen....but for gods sake...PLEASE do not let Sheva aid in finishing Wesker off...If anyone deserves it...its Jill. Just a 1 on 1 fight. And for god sakes... leanlrn from the mistake of rushing REmake3. It was a disappointment and we dont need anymore of those..
So pleased to hear you related to this video well! I love your comparison of Chris/Wesker to the Superbowl, and I agree! It's the biggest pay off in the franchise. I know a lot of people think Leon is the poster boy and he's certainly most peoples favourites, but it all started with Chris. And he absolutely deserves his flowers in the remake timeline. I'm also with you that they should take their time with these games. I think we speak for everybody when we say we would rather something done that is crafted very carefully and deliberately, otherwise you end up with something like RE3R, and that will just be upsetting. Nemesis was so iconic and 3R hurt so many fans.
You raise such a brilliant point about Sheva too. Don't get me wrong, I think she's a solid character but it HAD to be Jill given the history of everything. Jill felt incredibly out of place after her reveal, it was a strange way to treat a legacy character like that. She had her moment in the DLC but it felt very underwhelming! Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I really enjoyed reading this! I feel you have a great understanding of what the franchise needs to do to be the successful, and it's always great to hear from such a passionate fan!
I totally agree. It makes no sense to remake 5 without at least remarking Code Veronica. But RE1 is what I want the most.
I feel the same as you. I think I would honestly be happy with all of these games remade, but I think the order in which they do them is important. The 30th anniversary is coming up and I think that would be an amazing opportunity to present a reimagining of RE1. Code Veronica would also be an amazing announcement.
If RE0 ever gets a remake, it needs to be a ground-up remake that scraps *everything* from the original game, in order to better fit with the events of RE1. No Billy, no train, no second mansion, cut it all. A second mansion is dumb, and making the characters go through a separate (but identical) set of events to RE1 (cough cough Rebecca mf Chambers) just lessens the impact of the first game.
RE0R should focus exclusively on STARS Bravo Team and their experiences in the Spencer Mansion shortly before the events of RE1. It should delve into the helicopter crash, each member getting picked off, and how the different members got to their locations where you discover them in the first game (like Richard meeting Yawn, or *HOW* Enrico got into the caves), etc. It would play similar to RE2R, or some kind of modernized RE1. It shouldn't be too long, as it would tie into RE1 seamlessly; maybe it could be a slightly longer Separate Ways or Shadows of Rose style DLC for a newer, more modernized RE1 remake.
Rebecca was way too scared and confused in RE1 to have gone through the events of RE0; if she was in RE0 she'd be exhausted by RE1, if not exhausted then at least much more used to handling the zombies and BOWs than she appeared to be. Either make the events happen closer together so Rebecca's still too new/inexperienced/unaccustomed/not-adjusted to fighting zombies and hasn't gained the composure she (and all other surviving STARS & Raccoon City Incident survivors) developed after the initial trilogy, or make somebody else be the main playable character. Maybe it could be Enrico searching his way through the mansion and ending up in the caves. Maybe it could have everyone be playable for a short time. Play certain characters until they become a casualty, then switch to another character. It would have to follow the order of who died first, but it could definitely work. Play as Robert until he dies (have a last stand against the crows), play as Richard until he gets poisoned by Yawn's venom, etc. Or they could even do different episodes that all fit together; the Rebecca episode would go until she locks herself upstairs and meets Chris. The Enrico episode would last until the caves when he's shot by Wesker, the Richard episode goes the same as above. You could unlock the episodes by finding tapes on the corpses of dead Bravo Team members in this new RE1RR. Just a thought.
Either way, it should focus on the events immediately preceding RE1, not some convoluted BS side story that throws a wrench in *all* of the RE1 story
I really like your thinking and totally agree. You raise such an important point with Rebecca too. The inconsistencies from Zero into RE1 are so incredibly frustrating and it begs the question why Zero is the way it is when it's supposed to be the precursor for all of this. It doesn't make sense. I like your ideas! Some people have suggested if they remake RE1 then they could potentially do both games in one; there could be an 'Alpha' campaign and a 'Bravo' campaign. This could tie the games pretty well together but they do have their work cut out for them in terms of quelling inconsistencies and telling a coherent story. This was a really good read! Thanks for watching and taking the time to type this up!
@@edd_TV An Alpha and Bravo campaign sounds brilliant tbh! Then you'd have a whole host of characters to choose from and explore tons of different story arcs that both were and weren't covered in RE1 and RE0. Maybe the Bravo Team campaign would unlock after you beat the Alpha (normal) campaign, so you play through and let the mysteries unravel like normal, then you get the full picture afterwards. So many opportunities present themselves from this suggestion alone.
I really enjoyed your video, and thank you for replying to me. Keep up the good work and have a great night
@@MarioTheLiopleurodon I like the sound of that! It would be a great way to connect the dots. It's an exciting prospect for sure.
Thank you for your kind words! Thanks for watching and take care :)
I think RE1 with some new scenes showing Weskers powers then 5 would work
A Wesker DLC could be interesting I think. Him potentially escaping the Mansion or something like that!
Remake raccoon city make hunk the main character and leader of the group and bring that fire multiplayer back 😭
Would never say no to more HUNK!
I had thoughts about where the franchise could go from here. As far as leaks go, take them with a grain of salt, but if the franchise came out with Resident Evil 9 I'd like to see a handing off of the torch in a way that still rewards some older players who grew up with it. For the importance of Wesker, it could evolve into a question between the other candidates of the W Project as to what they want the name Wesker means to them and the world. I wouldn't mind Jake Muller and Alex Wesker clashing ideologies about what it means to be a superior specimen in the middle of their superhuman battle of getting the upper hand on each other. It could be a great way to redeem Jake's character after how RE6 went. I also think RE9 in this scenario could extend where the franchise could go with a newer generation, and Capcom could still create more remakes of classic RE titles to buy time even if RE9 flopped with their direction. And if RE also failed, it's been a long and good run with a rich history in gaming.
Dude I love talking about Resident Evil with my friend for hours on end about how we both experienced and noticed the time and care put into these and I only want good things for this franchise. A few learning mistakes were made but RE survived this long.
I like your thinking. I do think RE9 should be a change of the guard in some way. I think RE9 could serve as some sort of 'Endgame' where all the characters can reunite for one big send off, because they are all ageing very fast. It's probably time for some newer characters. It worked very well with Ethan Winters.
The additional stories from the chronicles games (umbrella and darkside).
That would be really great!
Tbh I'm more than happy with the new wesker, less corny and more remorseless. Which is exactly what his character is. Better writing in the future will help with that. Adas story gave him more screen time and i was more than happy. I'm a massive fan of wesker in general, especially due to D.C douglas and his fantastic voice work. Unfortunately he's ruined his reputation now
Definitely less corny, I agree. And I think it's probably a good thing in this day and age. Maybe the Wesker from RE5 wouldn't translate as well because it is very goofy, I just can't help but love it.
I think your assessment on Wesker is very fair, and it's of course subjective. I hope the new VA can really make his own mark with Wesker. It's really important he doesn't attempt to emulate previous iterations. I just didn't feel very excited for him personally. I hope that will change going forward! The D.C Douglas stuff I honestly had no idea about until putting this video out and people mentioned him in the comments. I was gutted to read about it.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
If you ask me: code veronica or re5.
Both can be even better with a remake.
For sure. I would be very interested to see what they would change with 5; none of the boss fights are particularly great so that could definitely do with a new coat of paint. Code Veronica would be massive in terms of a remake though, there is so much potential there.
Is Wesker really one of the most iconic villains in video game history? I mean, he's no Faize Beleth
The ultimate curveball 😆
@@edd_TV you're not responding to WhatsApp again so I'm here to inform you that me and the Badger have agreed to fight on the 15th and that me and you are doing a 2 week boot camp in preparation. Daily training is the key.
@@tjpridham ...I'll get to this shortly
I love 5. Have good memories playing with a friend early on and I am currently doing a run with my bf for the first time and he also enjoys it. So yea we need his lore to make it more meaningful but also excited for them to do 5.
I feel exactly the same! I know the bosses are quite bad but I do think the co-op play really does save it in a lot of ways. It's a great experience and it holds up well today. I'd be really interested in seeing what they would change for an RE5R!
I actually have a strong feeling that RE1 will be remade next for various reasons.
Obviously RE9 is next on the game schedule, most likely dropping in 2025. But I think RE1RR will come out in 2026. That will be the 30th anniversary of RE1 and it would make a good commemoration on the series and also it would re-introduce the audience to the original story of the series and the original characters. The re-introduction of Wesker, Chris, and Jill is absolutely needed to fully needed for the new audience. And also, a RE1RR would sell gang busters.
I also think that RE0 and Code Veronica should be released as DLCs to RE1RR, that should equal to something a little longer than the separate ways remake dlc to make them substantial. Capcom is clearly trying to tidy up the timeline make it less confusing for new fans and I think full on releases for RE0 and CV would confuse new fans timeline wise and could possibly disinterest them in a RE5 remake by the time that rolled around. Remaking RE1 and including story elements in the base game that strongly imply weskers story isn’t over and releasing 2 huge story expansion DLCs for those who want the extra lore I think is the smartest option. Plus it would make RE1 Re-Remake the ultimate resident evil game, which would be fitting for a celebration for its 30th anniversary.
This would set the stage for RE5R to be greatly anticipated amongst new and old fans alike, with the story making sense and also the titles of the games also.
A lot of people in the comments have been suggesting that Zero and Code Veronica are 'confirmed' to be next, but I'm not seeing any substantial proof of this. I think Zero would be a bizarre one to put forward next. You make a great point about the 30th Anniversary, that's a great shout! I'm totally with you on more of a spotlight being on Chris, Jill and Wesker too. It would even be nice for them to know people like Barry! I do wonder if the timeline will be beat-for-beat in the sense of how the stories are told.
I really like your thinking. If it goes down like this I am absolutely here for it!
My hot take: Wesker didn’t actually die at the end of re5
The dude plans for longer than 4 games and in re5 throws it all out the window. He probably cloned himself or something as a backup plan.
“Somehow Palpatine returned”? 👀
at least wesker returning makes more sense.
@@fadeddragon123 Very true.
I love 5. But you are right. Let’s build it up and let’s make 5 the last remake for awhile. But I want it to be better than 4 which is in my top 10 games along with re4 2005
I think 5 is quite polarising, but I love it too. And I think they could improve it so much. I think there are so many simple elements they could change to make the game better, for example have it set in the night rather than the day! That would make it so much more scarier. I think there is huge potential with a 5 remake and I would be really interested to see what they leave in and what they decide to change!
There are rummors that Capcom is working on 3 RE games
Resident Evil 9
Resident Evil Zero Remake
Resident Evil Code Veronica X Remake
and also Resident Evil 1 Remake (but this is from a less reliable source)
Very exciting if true! I do find it hard to believe they would pursue a 1 remake, but I would love to see it.
@ personally I would like this release order
1.RE 1 remake
2.RE Zero Remake
3. RE CVX remake
4.RE 9
But we will probably get re 9 first and then remakes
@@michajamrozik9157 I think you're right. I think we will surely get an RE9 announcement before anything else!
@ maybe they will announce re 9 on the game awards
@@michajamrozik9157It's a good shout! I could see it happening.
Re5 Wesker: "I have uruborus!"
Re4R Wesker: *high pitched voice* "Toodaloo, hello boys!"
Literally this! It's so weird and unlike him! We need D.C Douglas!
“Global saturation”
If you know you know. Perfect to me at least
“You get your ideas from comic book villains?”
I feel like they have the resources to make a remake of both 0 and 1 in the same game but separate campaigns.
I agree. I didn't think about this ahead of time but so many people are interested in this. I think baking both games into one and having both an 'Alpha' and 'Bravo' campaign would be really great. It would do wonders for tying the stories together.
maybe they can go with some kind of RE origins that covers RE0,RE1 and a quick small campaign that includes weskers actions after his resurrection.
RE1 I feel could use a remake with the new engine and it would be amazing! Then code V and then 5 so I line up with your opinion ha
I think so too! Glad to hear you feel the same way!
I don’t understand the beef with re 0 😢 the inventory system was the biggest puzzle in the franchise and actually made the game about survival not run and gun. I remember I left my shotgun and ran into a boss fight with a tyrant by the train wreck, I was terrified😅
I think it's more that time hasn't been kind to it. It's just archaic and frustrating I suppose. I definitely prefer the game to be more puzzle based rather than run-and-gun like you say, that's why I have so many issues with 6! I can see where you're coming from. I think for a lot of players it was just a nightmare with some guns taking up two slots or having to drop items and run back and forth. It just hasn't aged well I guess! I think a fresh coat of paint for Zero would make it a lot more likeable. I know there are people who really love the original, but I think a remake of Zero could get some new appreciation for it!
@edd_TV that is true but knowing capcom they’ll remove all the puzzles 🤦🏽♂️
@@yglordco9793 That's honestly the saddest truth :(
