Nah I want a mix of the two, I want labs but with fizzing potions, sigils on the floor and former umbrella scientists in wizards robes because that's what they do now. Complete with diaries where they complain about viruses being too limited for what they want to do and how magic is much better.

Doom Eternal is extremely good and RE3make looks fine. It's just not ground-shakingly incredible like the RE2 remake.

My final playtime for my first runthrough was 4 1/2 hours, including time spent poking around for bobbleheads and such.

That is not much shorter than the original RE3 but it feels shorter in a few ways.

If you are interested in what was cut:


The game basically starts at the 'repairing the train car' section. Brad appears briefly during the opening scene but isn't killed by Nemesis. (You do find out his fate later.)
The City Streets (the area from the demo) and the electrical plant are still there.
The police station is recut into a side trip for Carlos
The Clock Tower is entirely removed except as the backdrop of a boss fight
The Hospital takes the place of the sickbed for Jill.
Everything past the Hospital is removed for a new lab segment.

They regenerate damage dealt to them unless hit with a hard hitting weapon. So basically you can’t use the basic handgun on them.

You can kill them with a non-'powerful' weapon, but it takes a lot of damage delivered quickly. The SMG will melt them down, but it takes a LOT of bullets to do it, likewise shotguns and shells, etc. The handgun may just not be able to fire fast/enough to keep up. (At least, that was the case in No Way Out.)

It's way too early to say that. A "massive departure" for RE could mean absolutely anything at this point, whether it's the genre, the plot, the theme, or even the platform.

It's also worth noting here that RE games don't really "bomb," particularly not in the modern era. The name holds enough weight that most of the games in the series have comfortably cracked a million. If you were ever going to experiment in a series, RE's historically been one of the safest franchises to do it in.

This is a debate that has gone on since both games came out lol

Both of them rule in their own way, but 3 probably is better overall. Code Veronica had some very ambitious graphics and camera use for the time though and the way it had pre-set camera angles that also moved with the player a bit was really really cool because of all the spots you can tell they took the time to really set up as a great "shot" as it pans in or around a corner or up stairs and such. It was when people were starting to realize that 3D cameras could use some work, but also before every dev just said gently caress it and started giving the player more direct camera control. Pre-set camera angles take a lot of work to make work, and for the most part Code Veronica does a great job with it. You can tell Capcom was shaky on this themselves because Dino Crisis 1 is setup similarly to Code Veronica, but then Dino Crisis 2 goes back to pre-rendered backgrounds instead of real time 3D.

I like Code Veronica a lot myself too, but some parts of it really don't hold up well, and it has some pretty lame enemy designs (but also some GREAT stuff like the Nosferatu design/encounter set up, but the fight itself is really easy).

Basically Code Veronica is the one that would probably benefit the most from a remake because there's a ton of good poo poo in there but it's really inconsistent.

There's even obvious DLC hooks since you email Leon early on in the game and who wouldn't want more "Chris angrily steam rolls through chumps" DLC.

Yeah any RE with a number after it is going to sell really well. And side games will do fine unless they're like catastrophically awful which none of the RE games have ever been.

Speaking of this direction for RE, I'd kill for a remake of Realms of the Haunting in the new RE Engine, that game is fuckin' awesome. It kind of is first person RE but in a haunted estate/underlying dungeons/etc.

Try turning off vsync in the game options and force it through Nvidia Experience or whatever. Should fix the FPS and I think even mouse aiming, but it's been years since I last played. Same goes for Dead Space 2, it's a weird PC only problem.
