Resident Evil thread Anonymous 04/17/2025 (Thu) 13:01:39 Id: cee921 No. 1112552
Discuss RE, old and new How disappointing will RE9 be considering Capcoms latest products and RE4 lacking in terms of atmosphere and edgy writing? You can just edit OPs that aren't completely half assed Zoom, ffs
RE9 will be good.

Next RE announcement when???
>>1112719 Da Game Awards most likely
>>1112552 RE2 remake is inferior to the original and the story is shit by comparison, change my mind.
>>1200181 I agree with you, but my even bigger complaints are how inferior the overall visual design on the game is, the built in input delay due to all the startup animations when you change directions while moving, the horrible ass dynamic difficulty that makes enemies go from being made of paper to practically invincible (the fact that a speedrunning strategy involves dying at specific points to make enemies weaker is fucking absurd) if you don't suck ass and how poorly done the atmosphere is in the remake. Literally just listen to this. https://youtu.be/mbKhfX4h6bg?t=16
>>1200181 The original is obviously better since it actually has proper 2nd scenarios that are affected by things done in the first scenario (2nd scenarios in the remake were obviously added at the last minute with not a lot of work done on them), but I still had enough fun playing the remake to get S+ with both character So yeah, the original is better but the remake is also worth playing
There's yet another RE movie in the works this time with an actual horror director, Zach Cregger. Chances he'll fuck up? most likely.

I'm hoping they cut back on the new Umbrella lore that they've been trying to write with RE7 and Village. Hell, even RE6 had the Neo-Umbrella nonsense. It was better when the origin was simple and to the point. RE is at its worse when they leave that simplicity and start trying to make things convoluted or mysterious. That being said, I still loved RE7 and Village, but I want to see them try something new.
>>1112552 It's gonna follow MH's footsteps; RE9 will be fucking shit, run like ass, sell a fuckload, and the producers are going to learn all the wrong lessons.

>>1207008 OG 3 is over-hated Yes, it's short and re-uses assets from RE2, but it's still a fun game
remember that RE game that was 4 player coop with umbrella agents i member
>>1219763 I like any game with summons and controlling enemies. Umbrella Whatever was ass with all classes, except for me with that doctor/necromancer which was pretty fun.
>>1206552 Probably not, since village addressed the elephant in the room with the BSAA that was obvious back in RE5. >>1207008 CV and 0 are terrible for different reasons and people just end up hating the one they played last more. >>1219824 Resistance? It was clear that the cast were high schooled aged and the devs quickly aged up their profiles after people gave them shit for it. That game really needed dedicated servers. Still would prefer Outbreak instead.
RE4R is my favourite RE since RE1 remake, incredible game
>>1200181 Both the demakes are inferior to the originals. I remember my friend did not understand why I was so annoyed about all the shit they did to the 3 demake, so I got them an emulator and had them play the PS1 version and now they fully understand why I hate the demake so much.
>>1327438 All demakes and demasters are inferior to the original
>>1200181 I can't. I agree. I don't know how REmake1 managed to turn out so well, but then they dropped the ball so much on the other REmakes.
>>1329106 Because REmake 1 was made with the majority of the original team only 6 years after the original. RE2make and RE3make were made over 20 years after, without even the original directors and vastly different teams that have different ideas of what even makes a horror game, let alone an RE game. It feels like the same mentality of localizers changing shit about the original to "better serve the market" and to leave a lasting impression in a position that's more like a restoration artist than an original painter. Just goes to show that it's not limited to the west. The Japs will fuck up their own shit too when push comes to shove.
>>1327420 I suppose your right, I think the major reason why I like 0 more because I discovered that you can make a zombe fall down with 2 stabs in the legs with the knife with billy. Makes the knife viable without making it over powered in VC.
>>1112552 >Discuss RE, old and new The only RE games I've played were original 4, 5, 4 remake and 2 remake. I played 0 and 1 remake (the GC one) and while the graphix and atmosphere were really good, gameplay sucked and I can't see myself enjoying these old RE games unless had I grew up with them. 4 is a game that I can pick up and play any time of the day and really enjoy it, same with 5 if not even more and coop is awesome, both online and with a bro. 2 and 4 remakes were meh at best, I really couldn't get into them, everything felt so dramatic and tried to take itself too seriously, also why the FUCK does Leon in 4 keep spouting the blandest one liners during gameplay.
>>1329977 >everything felt so dramatic and tried to take itself too seriously That the thing that RE fans don't realize. The devs always wanted the games to be dramatic and taken seriously. Yes even the original RE 1. After everyone mocked the acting of RE1 capcom created a subsidiary to hire screenplay writers improve the writing of capcom games. That said they shouldn't have hired Tokusatsu which is why Code Veronica is so damn wacky.
>>1329106 Legit, I think REmake, while great on its own, changed too much of the OG. Like, the spooky ghost mansion hits different from the OG's atmosphere. Plus the immortal chick monster is just lame, even if easy to avoid. Also making the early bits of both campaigns so samey was bad, too.
Also, the Revelations games are pretty fun and we're overdue for a new one
>>1330843 raid mode is cool though
(194.52 KB 500x281 1504501245711.GIF)

>>1329106 Because as much as people deny, games were just made better for people even if it was a soulless cashgrab remake.
>>1331561 Well the hobby wasn't 90% filled with shit eating niggers at the time. The PS2 kind of started that trend and Microsoft took it to completely new heights of shit.
>>1330843 >They walked into his room and touched his shit without permission. But somehow it's all Barry's fault If you have kids you should fucking lock your guns until you teach them basic gun safety. (aka LEAVE THE FUCKING GUNS ALONE UNLESS IN DANGER OR AT THE RANGE) then you can leave a loaded in the nightstand without a trigger lock. Since that happened I am assuming barry teach them yet. And I say this when I am vehemently against gun control laws of any kind. That said I agree she was a cunt until the DLC with the old hunter, she realises she fucked up and mellows out a lot.
>>1334141 >I am assuming barry teach them yet Didn't teach them yet*.

>>1112552 Damnation is the only good animated RE movie. Vendetta is fun but it's basically a fight scene reel, Degeneration is boring and Dead Island is incredibly stiff, whereas Damnation feels like if you tried to make a more serious sequel to RE4 that takes Leon to interesting places literally and character wise that set up his RE6 and Vendetta characterization unlike Degeneration. It also comes with a fun supporting cast and Sasha is an interesting introduction to the franchise by being a bio-weapon client treated with sympathy. It also does wonders for the world that the games were building towards by making it plausible that Umbrella produces Bio-weapons that people want to buy, the Lickers are quick and effective while making Tyrants feel genuinely menacing and heavy. Also it does a good job on making me want to fuck a hag like Svetlana by making the only genuinely good RE movie villain and unique in that she doesn't roid herself out with a virus in the end.
>>1329286 Hey funfact: Charmin and other thick quilted type toilet paper is terrible for your plumbing, it doesn't shred well and is incredibly prone to causing pipe clogs if you have older rough walled plumbing. I learned the hard way these past few weeks and have to switch to a easier shredding kind and run the sink before flushing to avoid any future issues for the ancient piping after it clogged so hard it blew a palm sized hole through the 80 year old cast iron wastewater line in the basement. Don't let plumbing issues add to your misery like it did for me!
Did you rike the teaser?
>>1450062 >Damnation is the only good animated RE movie. I liked the part where Ada and Svetlana had a cat fight and started cutting each other's clothes. That's the kind of shit you just don't see anymore. >Vendetta My friends and I always joke about the amount of innocent people Leon kills in that movie. Like using cars on the freeway with normal people in them to shoot their gas tanks to kill zombies. >Degeneration Nothing about this one sticks out other than Leon and Claire barely team up and they give Leon yet another throw away one off love interest. >Dead Island Extremely disappointed by this. Wanted Chris and Jill to interact way more. >>1451272 >Did you rike the teaser? Genuinely surprised they decided to make the child of an Outbreak character so important. Though I guess this does tie into the memes of the MCs never having sex. They had to get one of the pseudo-canon characters to do it.

>>1451272 No. I don't like trailers with no gameplay. I also think the main character falls deep into the uncanny valley for me. I'm trying to find the most flattering shot of her, but there's something about her that's off in a way that really bothers me. That hairstyle is weird, and her facial proportions and shading are off balance somehow.
>>1451272 No. Female protagonists make action, adventure and horror games trash. >>1451690 >there's something about her that's off Uglyness.
>>1454568 >Female protagonists make action, adventure and horror games trash. Not if they're smol and have a cute cunny they don't!
>>1451690 She looks fine but her tits should be bigger
>>1454696 Yes, they do.
>>1450062 >basically a fight scene reel That's how I feel about all the CG RE movies; it's why I see them being so much better than the live action movies. >>1451690 >That hairstyle is weird, and her facial proportions and shading are off balance somehow Capcom still hasn't learned how to make characters without buying peoples looks?! >>1454696 How'd they fuck Sherry so hard in the RE2make? She looked worse than a gremlin.

>>1451690 Her hair is too detailed compared to the rest of her Also she has a Ayy shaped head
>>1454568 Implying >Jill Valentine RE1, RE3 >Claire Redfield RE2, CV >Heather Mason SH3 Ruined their respective games. >>1454696 Funny, that is what separates a good female horror lead from a bad one. Sex appeal adds nothing to of value to horror. It just turns horror into a campy haloween party.
>>1455207 I interpolated this scene to 240fps to see how it would look.
>>1458344 The gunplay part looks like touched-up SFM stuff, but the rest of it looked fairly decent. Not up to a AAA company like Capcom though, but decent.
they should remake revelations
>>1457413 >>1457413 They did. Female leads are bads by themselves and ruin the games they're in.
>>1334141 Not only am I confused that Barry, of all people, didn't understand this (plus, wasn't his family living in Canada when this happened?), but I still don't get what he was saying or doing to Moira in the years since. Moira felt guilty, that's for sure, but her constant whining made it seem like Barry was this helicopter parent for the rest of her life up until the start of the game. Barry doesn't sound like he was, otherwise, he'd do the same shit to Natalia and wouldn't even let her risk helping him with puzzles. >>1455207 >How'd they fuck Sherry so hard in the RE2make? They turned her into a complete retard that babysits Naruto in RE6, so I didn't care that she wasn't an huggable loli in 2Demake.

>>1329977 >why the FUCK does Leon in 4 keep spouting the blandest one liners during gameplay haven't played the remake but RE4 came out in the early 2000s so I can see why they would want to borrow some gimmicks from successful movies (like Die Hard) while also rubbing on everyone's face how BADASS Leon became compared to his previous appearance while it doesn't redeem the remake to my eyes, adding a coop sequence with Luis was such a good idea

Reminder that there's a fantastic fanmade HD mod for the original RE4 https://re4hd.com/ The creators even traveled around Europe to get photos of the original places the textures came from to make them better
>>1542671 I played it I found the secret room, I came At least Capcom was nice enough to give it a highlight on the Steam page after raping it with the Demake. Most publishers just shut that shit down.
>>1329977 >>1541040 No they're just copying off The Last of Us like they've been doing since Demake 2.
My fav Resident Evil game is Parasite Eve 2
>>1552130 I still need to play those
>>1552323 PE novel is amazing. must read the movie is ok but forgettable PE1 is great, the soundtrack and atmosphere are amazing but the story is lame and it butchered a lot of the concepts established in the novel (like Eve being able to possess a kidney) PE2 and 3B suck as PE games and have absolutely nothing to do with the novel (Eve is not even in them), but PE2 is a great RE game.

>>1552341 >like Eve being able to possess a kidney
>>1552359 I never played the games and even I know that's just scratching the surface of the craziness of PE. >>1552341 I thought PE2 was still pretty close to what PE1 was unlike that 3B abomination?
>>1552661 PE2 had no ideas or concepts from the novel and had absolutely nothing to do with the novel at all. Eve (neither the mother nor the child) were in the game and also doesn't have Christmas Eve (crucial date for both novel and first game). It's just a random generic survivor horror with PE slapped on the title.
>>1552864 Thanks Still worth plauing though right?
>>1560279 Read the novel Watch the move Play the first game Don't bother with the other two.

How are the GOG versions of the ps1 Resident Evil games?
>>1715676 Pretty good but you should still install the Rebirth mods on top of them. https://classicrebirth.com/ Dino Crisis 1/2 play better with Duckstation as it fixes a ton of polygon clipping, so if you don't have a toaster I'd recommend that. Nothing wrong with the native PC option though.

Am I the only one who thought Requiem looked good based on the short Youtube reveal? I don't even have a PS5 and it looks like one of the better upcoming games. It's following Village which was an amazing title. Maybe I can get it on Steam or whatever when it comes out.
>>1963133 They've shown nothing but walking sim trash and Village was mediocre. Not being able to backtrack after the boss was the worst thing. I feel nothing for this franchise anymore after 4
Did PrayDog ever manage to make a proper first person VR mode for RE4? I think Sony put the screws to him after he embarrassed them with the RE7 mod, and got the drop on them with RE8 before the PSVR2's "killer app" could be launched... but it's been a few years and PSVR2 failed anyhow. There's no point in maintaining VR exclusivity.
>>1963236 Nope, and thus no first person mod as well. Thanks Sony!
>>1963133 I'm not a big fan of the Ethan Winters games. RE7 is okay and I get the series was in a weird place around the time that game was made but RE8 was a mess. RE9 at least seems to be bringing the series slightly back to established roots with Raccoon City and since Grace is related to a legacy character, even if it is one from Outbreak. However the gameplay still is way too close to the Winters games for my liking. I was kind of hoping they were done with that and the remakes would set the tone for what RE9 would be. A lot of people, myself included, still think there's another shoe that hasn't dropped with RE9 marketing since what they've shown so far seems incredibly threadbare.
>>1964365 Probably just a sequence where you control someone like Leon and it's pure Action Mode and that'll be the setpiece of the game since RE7 and RE8 did it.
>>1964365 >However the gameplay still is way too close to the Winters games for my liking. I was kind of hoping they were done with that and the remakes would set the tone for what RE9 would be You never noticed how OG shifted into action with the 4th entry and how that era shifted into the failed VR era with the 7th? Wonder what stupid shit Crapcom will do with the 10th entry.
>>1968279 I don't even know what the fuck they're doing with the 9th entry. What the fuck even is it? Why is there a spoopy monster witch thing in Racoon City? Is it another retardation Magical Mold bullshit? Why is the gameplay walking simulator trash? If it's running from invincible enemy shit like in RE7 again it's going to be shit.

I really don't like the way the RE franchise is being handled lately. Not for gay fake reasons like most people here, but like, look at this >1996 to 2005 6 Mainline Titles 1 Remake 6 Spin-offs >2006 to 2016 4 Mainline Titles (Revelations counts) 0 Remakes 5 Spinoffs >2017 to 2026 3 Mainline titles 3 Remakes 0 Spin-offs Feels like we've been in the great decade of nothing fucking happening. Worse still is the fact that the newest numbered title is transparently more based on the remakes than the originals.
>>1992772 Anon the inflation of game dev time is an existential problem to the whole industry and something that harms my psyche directly as someone in middle age. Now, in fairness, it's a lot easier to make a 2 hour game with simple geometry, ai and per-rendered backgrounds than actually making 3D stuff, but if we could go back to like...6th gen levels I'd be happy.
>>1992821 My issue isn't that though, it's that 50% of all RE games that will have been made in this third decade of the franchise will have been remakes.
>>1992825 I'm gonna be real, there's a part of me that doesn't want to even consider the Winters games RE games.
>>1992830 I don't see how they're meaningfully lesser RE games than the remakes of 2-4 honestly.
>>1992836 Remakes feel like RE4-5. Winters games feel like Outlast but they give you a few guns.
>>1992839 The remakes really don't feel like RE4-5. They feel like RE7 and 8 with some ideas pulling on Revelations 1 and 2 (and definitely not 4 and 5).
>>1992846 I don't really think of the Revelations duology as good retrospectively, considering one was a handheld game and the other feels more like a stripped down RE6 (still the worst in the franchise right next to Operation Raccoon City) with less shit enemies. I'm not seeing the Revelations games, or the problems with the Revelations games, in the demakes of 2-4, except for the ability to move and shoot simultaneously (a standard either Revelations 1 or RE6 set depending on which came first).
>>1994409 Similarity in level design, overall structure, enemy design, and usage of 'meme' mechanics (i.e., shit that adds nothing to the game but is forced in anyways). Like how all of the games now have light crafting elements, breakable knives in 2 and 4, the dodge in 3, the parry in 4, none of these are good, and these are piled ontop of consistently spongy and uninteresting to fight enemies. There's maybe about two or three boss fights in the whole of the remake trilogy that doesn't feel like a Revelationslike bullet sponge.
