Just beat the Claire path in this run of the 2 remake. Man, if 4 wasn't such an odd gem, this would be the best in the series. It's so perfectly tuned and polished, and it hits a great midpoint between leaving you wanting more and overstaying its welcome, with extremely little wasted space. And that's just the main campaign, ignoring the optional differences between campaigns and B stories. I'm really looking forward to 4 in this framework on a gameplay level, regardless of whether or not the game *needs* an update.

I got told I should post this here, so - I did a quick and dirty translation of the dialogue in that new commercial HERE. Enjoy!

I've started a series playthrough in anticipation of 8, but I'm still cautiously optimistic rather than excited. I've currently beat Zero and half way through RE:Make, so I have a ways to go (although RE:make 2 and 3 should be very quick unless I do fresh, zero gimmick weapon plays). Anyway, the 2002 remake is an excellent game and easily in the top 3 of the series and you camera angle hating putzes just need to accept it.

What if I love fixed camera angles and tank controls but think Crimson Heads are the worst, most boneheaded design decision ever?

Yeah, crimson heads look cool and make you tactically consider resources and routes aka the thing that made the early RE games fun (apart from cool monsters)

Crimson Heads are a genuinely excellent gameplay design decision and one I feel like is missed out on ever since. Making killing zombies a potentially dangerous situation instead of an obviously-must-do really makes you consider your choices in a way that pure ammo conservation doesn't and adds new tension to the gameplay without making it particularly more punishing.

Agree that Crimson Heads were a good idea and added a much needed layer of depth to the remake. I made it about half way through and it was great and I don't dislike tank controls as a rule but my muscle memory just failed to cooperate.

And those fuckers remain terrifying even after encountering multiple of them. Crimson Heads are fantastic, and I wish they'd reappear.

Is there enough to the first game that there could ever realistically be a remake/expansion in the modern vein? I really don't have a feel for much about it other than being set in the central mansion, I guess 2 must've had more to build from since it was evidently the natural place to start with remakes.

REmake already was an expansion on the original ps1 version like 2r and 3r are already 3hr games, and at least on the claire side the sherry sidequest is entirely unnecessary, why would a e: tbh i find the idea of re-remaking 1 pretty pointless but upon reflection making it 1st person would probably work much better for the cramped hallways and such than 3rd site fucked around with this message at 23:31 on May 1, 2021 |

Oh, I was just assuming it was small enough in scope that it would need to be bigger for Capcom to justify dumping money into it, not that I demand whole new plot lines or something. My vague impression of it was that it'd be more like the 2 remake with just the police station area. e: the only reason I'm interested in it is that I just can't handle the old style camera, so it'd give me more RE to play.

Honestly RE 1 remake in 7 style would probably do gangbusters sales especially if they make it VR.

It wouldn't be hard to extend RE1 very much especially if you made Jill and Chris meaningfully different campaigns even if just in the way Clare and Leon were in RE2make.

The REmake is probably still my favorite game in the whole series. I think there would be diminishing returns to remaking it again over just making a new game. It would just be a plot exercise for people who haven't played it already and don't want/can't do the tank control style but want to see the story and say they've played 'Resident Evil 1.'

I didn't finish the village demo in time, but I figured with the game coming out in a week I'll see it again soon enough anyway. Plus, I've got Pokémon to be photographing

Alternatively, or on top of it, if they really wanted to surprise people - Rebecca and Barry mini-campaigns, each emphasizing different aspects of the core gameplay. There is a lot of things you could do, but it really should be a major evolution on the existing games, not just a 1-to-1 remake but first person. site posted:i'd imagine that they would artifically extend the length by making it more combat heavy via more enemies scattered throughout the mansion since you could actually aim and stuff, and then turn all the mini boss fights (trevor, yawn 1 & 2, lisa, probably plant 42 would get a re-work) into "real" boss fights

I've been playing re2r all night and I have to say, for all the complaints recently about REmake, it's really fuckin weird to have the most basic zombie enemies take 6-8 headshots to put down

REmake 1 in VR would be a logical step since Umbrella Chronicles was in 1st person.

If they're going as far as doing another remake of re1 I think at that point they need to do something with the remake 'universe' beyond just letting it die as a triple dip on nostalgia, would seem pretty creatively wasteful otherwise. I'd like to see a full reboot with that cast.

I'd like to see a full reboot with that cast. I'd be a little concerned that any large extension would take away from the economy of the series at its best, something that 4 and then 7 seemed to restore. 1-3 work well in broad strokes (there was a zombie outbreak caused by an unethical megacorp in a mansion and then in a city) and expansion to that give us opera singing anime slug-men and a Wesker who *really* liked the Matrix. Its really 5&6 that need done right with 0 and CV being kind of memory-holed, but both would need major overhauls and the take away should be "there are other bioweapons and the world has black-market monsters now". I totally would like to explore the mansion again with a few surprises and maybe even some exploration of the woods, maybe make the lab feel more like a high-tech monster zoo than a nu-metal video set, have Lisa Trevor properly stalk the player, but don't trust Capcom not to add some Saturday morning cartoon motivations to Spencer, Wesker and Birkin beyond greed and hubris.

Is it just me or was some of the stuff in the demo unintentionally hilarious? Like when Ethan tries to escape the burning house by ramming the walls with the car and just manages to flip it over and getting the woman killed. Not to mention his "goddamn it why does this always happen to me" complaining. The Castle stuff, on the other hand, was A++.

Personally I consider that a big part of its appeal.
