itry posted:That too. The game throws you from area to area so often that there's really no time for him to actually stalk you. But the way you could always hear Mr.X be there, stomping around, searching for you? The way you could never really get away from him for long and being noisy would only make him find you faster? That was some grade-A horror setup, and Nemesis just kind of fails at evoking that same dread. It's what really makes him lackluster by comparison, not any lack of presence per se.

Yeah, hardly any of that with Nemesis. He's just suddenly there. And most of his screen time, as it were, is in his boss arenas. itry fucked around with this message at 18:18 on Apr 4, 2020 |

X could also spot you in the main hall of RPD even if you were on completely different floors. That poo poo was terrifying because you know he's coming eventually but he actually has to walk all the way there.

Nemesis presence is extremely reduced becuase about half the game is a new segment of him busting onto the scene and then getting blown up. Like after awhile I honestly started finding him sympathetic in his inability to not be on fire.

Finished the game myself, and I definitely give it an 8/10. This is mostly because its length and the what-could-have-beens will forever linger upon the game, but I think what we actually got is great. I actually think the game's breakneck pace and length are somewhat of a strength, because then this game becomes one I can pick up every once in a while and blast through it for a good time, and that is the mark of a great, lasting game for me. Nemesis himself is great. The game looks amazing. The characters are great. The game has a lot of loving touches and references to the original too. It doesn't feel like a DLC expansion to me, but I can see why other people feel that way. RE2R had a similar length for a single run, but there were two characters to play and then a remixed second run, padding the game a whole lot. The original RE3 is my favorite of the classics by a mile, and I think the Remake is an excellent take on it, but not a complete replacement.

thebardyspoon posted:Near the start of the game you activate him by doing a thing and then he's active sort of like that for a bit, pretty easy to knock down and then he's out of your hair for awhile, similar things occur a few more times. Not too much further into the game he shifts into being almost entirely scripted, like he'll be firing rockets at you while you run away and you just need to deal with that or similar. itry posted:It's very scripted. There's a bit relatively early in the game where he hunts you down and you have some room to lose him, but the rest of his appearances is just him chasing you through linear corridors. Cardiovorax posted:It's heavily scripted and there are sections where he does follow you around, but because the locations change so much, he just feels less present than Mr. X. There's no big persistent building for him to be a looming and threatening presence in. That sucks rear end. I legitimately may not even buy the game now.

Cardiovorax posted:I don't think the silencer actually did anything to make you more silent in RE2make, it was always just recoil reduction. It was sensible of them to rename it to "moderator" just to get rid of that wrong impression. A few people tested it and the silencer actually did affect Lickers. As long as you didn’t hit them they wouldn’t aggress from shooting a silenced SMG.

MonsterEnvy posted:Yeah I feel like Nemesis should have been in his normal form longer. To be honest what I think is missing from Nemesis is a Form 2. He goes right from Trenchcoat to Giant Mutant and I think that feel wrong. In the original he loses most of the trenchcoat first and that makes him the same but more intimidating even if it isn't for that long.

This guy is legit btw, got alot right with 7, 2 & 3 remake: I'm hype because it's RE but Ethan from what you get in RE7 is like the lamest protagonist ever so I hope they improve him a bit along with making the game a littles less chunky. I'm fine with first person RE but the lack of enemy variety and feedback was so horrible and the combat in general was pretty blah. I mean it made sense because of what the story was and where they came from but drat. I'd rather see Mia or even Zoe as a returning RE7 person instead of Ethan. ESPECIALLY if the game is going to be about going crazy/hallucinations/not being able to trust people and stuff. Neo Rasa fucked around with this message at 19:31 on Apr 4, 2020 |

I must be the only person in the world who kind of liked Ethan. He came across really well as a legitimately normal guy who is just in way over his head. Even then, he starts making quips eventually, it's a bit like a Leon who less affected by the player perception that RE4 gave him. "And stay dead!" indeed.

Well, just finished RE3 and yeah it's totally not worth full price. It was fun and all, but everything was so short and scripted that i don't really even have the desire to replay it. It doesn't help that the plot was barebones (even for a Resident Evil) and the environments were fairly generic, but the ~6 hour playtime and scripted events really just bring it down a bit. If you pay £20 for this i think you'll feel satisfied. Is it just me or did it not even blend all that well with RE2? There were all of these theories based on damage seen to the environment in RE2 and the Carlos RCPD section never really ticked any of that off. For a game that was supposedly in development alongside RE2 i'd have expected a bit more in terms of overlap. Kin fucked around with this message at 20:02 on Apr 4, 2020 |

man nurse posted:Resistance feels pretty weak. Just kind of a chaotic mess. I doubt I'll bother with it again. If you’re playing as a survivor you’re toughest battle is against things revolving into a chaotic mess once monsters start attacking you. Stick together with at least one other person and you can steam roll basic zombies and dogs with 2X4’s and metal bats. If the mastermind tries to spawn a monster in the same room as you, you can run up and get free shots in on it, usually killing it before it fully activates. If your team is good, you can split up, and divide the masterminds attention while completing objectives. Otherwise, just all cluster together, and brute force your way through any obstacles. PSN name is MoldyMilkJug if anyone is looking to play this weekend. It’s really satisfying to have a group that gels and works together well.

I saw a Resistance clip where the mastermind spawned the super plant right next to all of the four survivors as they were about to escape. It killed one of them immediately and entrapped two in vines. They lost. Capcom has never been able to do straight multiplayer games like that.

Just completed the game first time blind on Hardcore. I really enjoyed it but there were points I would walk into something and be locked in a prolonged fight without the ammo or weapons I wanted. Took me about 10 hours and I died 14 times  I am not looking forward to my S+ run, Nemesis is no joke getting comboed by him and a zombie is pretty much an instakill. The hunter betas are also a bit random aswell. I imagine the regen zombies react bad to acid rounds too I will be replaying this one alot but I am upset theres no operation Mad Jackal. I really want to play as more of the Mercs Maybe they will add it as free DLC? Also do shop items like the pouch or guns effect getting S ratings?

Sadly I think we're in for RE6 style semipointless multiplayer DLC, if we get much beyond 'all the guns for a tenner'. I initially remember being sad DMCV didn't get much substantial DLC after Bloody Palace was activated but actually in hindsight it was quite refreshing that Capcom just went "here's the game. It's done, enjoy".

i have two things to say. the first as to the rumors about RE8, i am beginning to realize i hate ethan because i cant think of any scenario where i'd rather play as him than mia. and i don't even really like mia. and the second is that when you consider jills first interaction with nemesis is him literally smashing through a wall kool-aid man style, i have to wonder why she puts so much effort into barricading doors with a book shelf or putting a bit of rubble in his way. jill. literally at this point the only thing you know about this dude is he can smash through a wall. why do you think a book shelf in front of a door is going to slow him down for even half as long as it took for you to put it there?
