"You bastard!" still wins for me based on delivery alone. It's the kind of delivery your expect him to say when finding out who took the screws out of his desk chair or took the last chocolate bar out of the vending machine, not because a reanimated body got up and started stumbling towards him from across the room.

ZogrimAteMyHamster posted:I hear much hollering around the internet about "half the work is done" regarding a remake of RE3, but really, is it? One shared environment. ONE. Not only that, but it's cut down to a handful of loving rooms. Barely any of the RPD was re-used in RE3. Not even close to "half the work".  " while maybe seeing Marvin do something before getting chased out of the RPD by Nemesis. Anything more though, you really need to spice things up a lot. Like actually having the player get involved with the defense of the RPD in a situation where it's still teeming with survivors - before Nemesis shows up and lures/lets a bunch of zombies in and everything just descends into mayhem. (Like a souped-up version of the jail sequence.)e: Just to be clear, I agree, the RPD really can't be more than a small portion of RE3, even if you make it more prominent than it was in the original. The scenario I suggested above should be over pretty quick, more along the lines of the Sherry/Ada section in terms of length than anything else.

I'd be mostly interested in learning whether they plan to go full remake on an RE3 project or whether it's another "reimagining" like this one. I'd hope for the former. RE3 seems like you could go ahead and open up the map, spread out its events, and reward a lot of exploration and backtracking. In an absolutely perfect world, I'd want them to fill in the first few days of the outbreak and turn the whole thing into an RE4-length adventure, where Nemesis only shows up in the last few days.

If they do remake RE3 and do have Jill go to the RPD again, I really hope they keep in the inconsistency where Nemesis smashes through the window in the dark room hallway only for it to still be intact later in RE2. It adds to the mythology.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Not sure how well it'd work, but it would be interesting to see a RE game that starts with everything being mostly fine, and then slowly descending into chaos. Can't really imagine what sort of gameplay you'd add to the mostly fine parts though, not to mention the lack of classic RE atmosphere in a functioning city. Can't really have the game start with half an hour of puzzle action with not a zombie in sight. "Jill sneaks around trying to find dirt on Irons/Umbrella" seems about as actiony as you can go before zombies show up, unless you add human enemies. If you unlock Jill's Diary in the original RE3, it says that one of the reasons why she was still in the city at all was to try and break into Birkin's lab via the sewer entrance. You could do the tutorial in an above-ground, functioning Raccoon City, then Jill sneaks into the sewers via the same route Ada and Leon took, just in time to start running into zombies in the hours following Hunk's strike on Birkin. Of course, at this point, I'm really just sharing a pointless fantasy, but you could get a pretty good game flow out of: Raccoon, September 22nd, daytime -> Sewers, 23rd -> Streets (outbreak) -> Jill's apartment building -> Streets (outbreak) Then from there, you go wherever you want and meet back up with the original plot on the 28th in the warehouse hideout. (If survival horror games had a plug-and-play engine the way adventure games or visual novels do, I would probably already be making my own blatant RE knockoff.)

I made it to the vine zombies, and I had forgotten about the whole fire killing them permanently thing. I had blown through almost all of my fire grenades prior to making it to the lab. Whoopsie. Luckily I have plenty of blue herbs for inevitable poisoning. EDIT: A possible RE improvement: Instead of allowing heals in the pause menu, force players to equip healing items similar to the way you swap between secondary weapons, and then only allow their use in-game. This would be similar to the Estus flask in Dark Souls, and it'd make for a more tense experience. Getting knocked down and cornered would be frustrating, but it could be tuned. il serpente cosmico fucked around with this message at 21:33 on Mar 14, 2019 |

The vines don't poison you, if you get grabbed by them you have to use a sub weapon or it's instant death. Fortunately there's no need to kill them, just pop a bulb to stun them and run on by.

Except also with a weird button combo you can do to combine pills and also a different one that chugs several pills at once because it's re6

They might've in the original RE2, but RE2R limits enemies that can poison you to just the big G spawns in the sewers. I guess some of the Ghost Survivor enemies can poison you too but eh, they literally don't matter for Claire or Leon.

A Buttery Pastry posted:Counterpoint: The fact that the RPD was barely used in RE3 doesn't mean it couldn't get more use in a remake. Just open up the city, make more buildings accessible and have RCPD be one of many in more fully realized semi open world setting. Add a hospital, a superstore a DMV...maybe a school or a bus station...a pharmacy. poo poo like that. Have several access points in RCPD blockaded, wrecked, on fire and otherwise shut out in ways that gently caress with the player's muscle memory. I wouldn't gently caress with the core gameplay much and just concentrate on the environments. BiggerBoat fucked around with this message at 02:04 on Mar 15, 2019 |

One of the reasons I loved RE2R so much is because Leon and Claire had realistic, human reactions to the monsters. Leon saying is this a joke, Claire calling Irons an rear end in a top hat, random cursing at zombies, everything made it really believable. So, I would be more amenable to this version of Claire going to Rockfort Island, because I can believe she'd call Steve a dumbass and grab Alfred's rifle out of his hands and smack him with it.

Information is extremely sparse at the moment. It appears that the film company that made the films is partnering with Netflix for the series, it will be a completely different production unit than the one that made the films. That unit is tied up with the Monster Hunter film project. It may well be that the involvement of Constantin Film is primarily a rights issue.

Before I move on the the B runs, I decided to do Leon A immediately after Claire A. I played for a couple hours and have done all there is to do in the station before I let Mr. X loose (I've saved in the boiler room). My immediate sense is that Claire's A game is substantially easier. Her starting pistol is worse than Leon's, but you end up getting the same amount of ammo for each gun and they put out a similar amount of damage, so it doesn't make a huge difference. She more than makes up for this shortcoming with the grenade launcher, which is a head and shoulders above the shotgun. One grenade round will almost kill a licker, and it'll stun it and render it immobile while you finish it by plinking away with your pistol. If you want to fight one with your shotgun, you need at least 4 direct hits while it's skittering around like a little rear end in a top hat, and it can do a poo poo ton of damage to you before it goes down. This wouldn't be so terrible if the game didn't view shotgun shells and grenade shells as roughly equal. You tend to only find shotgun shells in groups of 2-3, whereas grenade shells usually come in groups of 2. Crafting them with gunpowder is also just about the same--you get three shotgun shells for a regular sized gunpowder and a high grade gunpowder vs. 2-3 grenade shells. In Claire's run I never really felt wanting for resources, but I am definitely feeling the survival horror during Leon's run. At least I won't have to deal with Mr. X for more than 10 or 15 minutes.

Yeah from memory I think the big advantage Leon A has is that after returning from G1 / the car park he has the option to reopen the rest of the police station and explore it without Mr X showing up. Claire A is basically locked into encountering him after entering the secret passageway. Or was that what you meant by only seeing him for 10-15 minutes?

Leon indeed does have that advantage but I usually end up exploring the secret passageway anyway because theres a film roll that shows location of flamethrower ammo and gun upgrade. I believe you cant get those without the film so youd have to go back twice, assuming you want to explore everything.
