    NOTICE: Follow-up video can be found at • RE2 Remake Retrospective
    Ever since its official reveal at E3 2018, many people have been asking for my opinions on the Resident Evil 2 Remake... so here it is, in animated form!
    It's sad but true... I am personally very disappointed with how the RE2 Remake is turning out to be. I've tried very hard to push my bias aside, and simply be excited for the fact that it's going to exist. But it just doesn't work that way, I'm afraid. With such missed potential and an ultimately broken promise, it's difficult for me to feel anything but betrayed by the whole situation, at least with what's been shown so far.
    This animation alone couldn't possibly cover all of my exact reasoning for feeling the way I do, so if you have any questions or are further interested in my thoughts on the RE2 Remake, please take a moment to read this opinion piece I made to accompany the video:
    drive.google.c...
    Please also keep in mind that I don't think the RE2 Remake will be a ”bad” game by any means. If you're hyped for the RE2 Remake, there's no reason to take this video personally. My opinions are simply my own, and I don't intend to offend, discredit, or sway the opinions of anyone who may feel otherwise. Videos of this nature are always gonna have a touch of comedic anger, and that little jab at ”TrueREfan98” is satire that's only intended towards the fanatical types who lose their shit at even the most innocuous of criticisms.
    Whether disappointed or hyped, your opinion is valid.
    (As long as you're not being a complete dick to other people in the process, that is)
    Thank you for watching!

    As you all probably know, RE2make is now officially released! My husband decided to get the game for himself, so we're likely going to be spending the next few days playing it and seeing how it holds up. Jack will be playing Leon's scenario, and I'm going to play Claire's.
    Since this particular game is such a hot topic on my channel, I will likely be working on another video for my overall feelings on the full game. This will most likely be a more simple animation done in a similar style to REMusical Predictions, rather than the more intricate RE2make Reaction. I'll also make another, more in-depth text document to accompany it.
    Between getting the full experience of the game, writing about it, and potentially making a video on the matter will take time, so this will inevitably put a delay on the animation I was working on previously. Thank you all for the support and understanding, and I hope you'll enjoy RE2make and the upcoming animations!

      RE6 wasn't a total stinker IMO. Fixed camera angles are dated nowadays. They were used back in the 90s due to hardware limitation.
      "Item indicators are incredibly jarring and immersion-breaking,"- I agree,but this is how things work in 8th gen,we have huds and indicators for everything. Maybe they'll turn it off in the highest difficult,who knows.
      "The mechanics doors use just looks silly and almost broken, like they could've been programmed far better."-I don't get what you said,could you elaborate plz?
      "Near the same timestamp, characters constantly shouting profanities while being attacked is very annoying."-I think that's the same thing that every newcomer to that kind of situation would do
      "While I understand using the RE Engine, recycling the RE7 menu just seems downright lazy and uninspired."-RE had recycled menus from 1 up to CVX,that's a Capcom thing and I'm ok with it.
      "Claire has been altered to the point of being unrecognizable, with outfit designs becoming questionable at best."-The photo you picked is indeed weird because it is meant to be an official artwork,her ingame model resembles much more Claire's likeness and you can fix her questionable classic outfit by adding a black T under the jacket.
      "Keeping certain content behind a pre-order paywall sucks, especially when it's stuff that used to be unlockables."-I agree,but unfortunately 1 or 2 people won't change this reality.
      About the orverall darkness,maybe it's how they did video edition,maybe it was a preset brightness from the start which could not be changed,we'll know for sure when the game is out.

      But I haven't met anyone who loves this franchise as much as ShadowLeggy here to fhis extent
      Watching her original "in a nutshell" works long ago inspired me to see the walkthroughs, see the movies, and I've spent hours on end just excitedly reading every Wiki entries out there about it
      I was enthralled & became so enthusiastic about it

      Yeah, it's definitely more like a reboot than a remake. They did claim this before the game came out... but the initial announcement did indeed call it a "remake" so there was definitely a bit of deception throughout production.

  • @mipera
    @mipera 5 лет назад +49

    It should be given a fair chance. If it actually were like re4 it would mean a fast paced shooting gallery with melee mechanics and increasingly difficult and varied encounters with large amount of enemies where fast reflexes and situational awareness combined with effective level navigation culminate in a stylish slaughter of enemies and fast progression. The simple displacement of the camera doesnt mean plentiful amounts of healing items and ammo with easily dispatchable enemies.
    Still i would be equally or maybe even more so excited for a remake with a static camera because of the atmospheric effects it provides. Altough the over the shoulder viewpoint grants different possibilites for scares and surprises since you only see what the charcter sees.
    I hope all of us are pleasantly surprised and satisfied with re2 remake. It has enormous boots to fill.
    Also i would never ever ever want any of your videos to be remastered in Re2:R style. The old ones aren't going anywhere and they will forever be remembered by the fans. Loving all of your new uploads! Been a fan since your first musicals 😊

    • @residenteviltalk
      @residenteviltalk 5 лет назад +2

      thank you for being open minded.
      I too will give it a fair chance. It is very difficult for many of us who grew up with the original games, who asked and begged Capcom to remake this game since RE1 remake first came out in 2002, we were basically ignored for 13 years!
      Its insane when you think about all that time it took to be heard as a fan and we knew as fans these remakes were a no-brainer. And as Shadowleggy pointed out many times, this was always advertised as a remake and then Capcom has openly said in interviews since E3 multiple times that its not a remake its a new game and they took a re-imagining approach, which is their words.
      I would even go farther to say the 13 years we tried to even as fans be heard to get this remake greenlit and the additional 3 years until the reveal of the game we have been giving Capcom a detailed blueprint and been consistent to be heard to make this remake very much like RE1 remake which has been known in the gaming industry and fans across the board as the quintessential remake, this is how you remake a game. And they did stray far from that formula.

    • @ShadowLeggy
      @ShadowLeggy  5 лет назад +11

      I'll definitely give it a shot, and hopefully it'll be fair, though it's pretty tough getting over the bitterness of being lied to all the way back in 2015. And the little jab on Claire's jacket, while that's mostly made in jest, I'd be lying if I said I didn't just see a re-skinned RE4 any time I look at the standard gameplay from RE2make. It hurts a little bit more with each viewing, to a point where I haven't even wanted to look at updates anymore, but that's just me.
      With Capcom's track record of every single OTS Resident Evil title being almost entirely action-focused, also doesn't really help my outlook on how RE2make may wind up, but let's just hope I'm wrong about that in the end, and Capcom can finally prove themselves. It really would be a nice little surprise, for a change.
      And thank you, I'm glad to hear that! I've said it plenty of times before, but this channel will always be a place for the classic games, first and foremost. Trends be damned, I know what I like and I'm sticking to it :)

      Mipera; the game will have AUTOMATIC SAVES, UNLIMITED SAVES, AUTO-BALANCING SYSTEM that spawns items and/or enemies depending how well you do in the game, up to 16 slots of inventory space, HUD that shows you a legit crosshair + ammo + HP + mission reminders, button prompts ... and who knows what else.
      It's not "just" the camera angle ruining this game for me, though that one is a big fuck up on its own already. It's all made even worse by the fact that you can now MOVE and ATTACK at the same time, with the crosshair always being stuck in the middle of the screen, thus totally removing the little bit of tactical thinking even RE4 still had with its stationary free-aiming.

Tho i like the difficulty system becuse that gives players eho play well more challenges. I love the movement lock of re4 and 5 but being able to move and shoot gives the enemies also more room to be agile and aggressive. You can move and shoot in SH1 as well. I do wish they include an extra classic difficulty where you havr ink ribbons like they had one in RE7. Theres gameplay of re2 remake with a laser sight so theres that.

So many stupid decisions when it came to how they handled characters, their personalities, and motivations.

    As much as I initially wanted fixed camera angles for this remake, I understand why Capcom decided to go with the OTS perspective. I remember critics calling fixed camera angles dated way back when Code Veronica came out on the Sega Dreamcast. I suppose Capcom wants the game to appeal to as many people as possible, particularly younger gamers, and fixed camera angles are a little too "retro" at this point. What really concerns me is how dark the game is. REmake managed to be tonally dark without literally turning off all the lights. I want to actually see what the new police station looks like!

    • @ShadowLeggy
      @ShadowLeggy  5 лет назад +4

      I guess that's just the way they've decided to see things. Though I feel that HD REmastered proved that the classic style was still perfectly viable (and who knows how much more it could've been improved with RE Engine) Capcom would just rather do the more pandering thing in the end. It's a shame, but it is what it is. I do hope the darkness can actually be adjusted in a way that actually makes a difference, too.

    I was roughly ten years old when I found your channel, I think the first one I watched was Lack Of Memory and I could relate heavily because my older cousin let me borrow the original Re2 since my grandma had obtained a playstation for me somehow. Through your channel, I found out about the rest of the Re games out at the time. The original remake, Survivor, Code Veronica X, Re4, Re3, Outbreak files. I played them all because of your channel. I'm 22 now and bought myself a PS4 on a whim because of REmake 2's release and suddenly memories of a channel I hadn't visited since before highschool hit me. Thank you Leggy, for exposing a great franchise to me and for making hilarious original content based around it.

    I don’t think your opinion is wrong leggy, but I feel like for some games that are being remade they need to make a difference that they have to change some aspects to give a new feel for both veterans players and new players. We can’t always get what we want in a game like this but we can get some things that will make the game worth the wait. For sure I’m gonna preorder the deluxe version to get the classic resident evil 2 music option and the classic Claire costume to keep my resident evil 2 experience the same as if I was playing the original resident evil 2.

    The only problem I have with the Remake so far is the fact that the characters won't shut up during gameplay. The more the characters talk the less scared I am. Take the famous licker window scene for example. In the original it is silent as the grave and goes by very quickly. In the remake the licker crawls by slightly more slowly making a loud banging noise with Leon responding with "What the hell was that?" Which completely destroys the tension by overemphasizing it. The characters will often say things such as "I can do this" and "Stay back" when confronted with a zombie. This completely severs the connection between player and character and as a result The experience becomes substantially less scary.

    My biggest problem, just off of watching others play the demo, was a simple one: Zombies are now bullet sponges, EVEN if you shoot them IN THE HEAD...you know....that one thing that rewarded you for your skill with NOT wasting your ammo. But no, now you can shoot them in the head four times, and their now faceless head will chase after you to try and bite you.
    My brother also brought up the lighting. If the lights are on, you're safe. If they are off, you're in danger. It really takes the suspense when I have a clear indicator of if I can or will be attacked. Becomes less horror and more: Oh hey the obvious 'zombie sign' has been lit up, thanks for warning me game.
    Also this one is more of a personal bug than a criticism, but it seems to be more of a gore fest than horror. I feels more so like they are trying to make me vomit than scare me. I know for some gore is one of the most horrifying things, but for me its just disgusting to look at. At no point playing or watching others play did I feel fear. I don't think I need to say this but for a horror franchise that's very very bad.

    • @ShadowLeggy
      @ShadowLeggy  5 лет назад +2

      Huh, well that's interesting to hear. Like, it makes sense in a way that zombies are "tougher" and don't die with a hit to the head, because... OTS style aiming would make that ridiculously easy. I see that as kind of an "oops, we fucked up" situation though, since, well, RE2 was never an OTS game. RE4 was, but RE4 didn't have zombies. _Oops._
      If the lighting "warning" sticks around too, that'd really be a shame. That's like, A Machine For Pigs level of immersion breaking and completely ruining the horror. That's how horror works, you're not supposed to _know_ when the danger is coming. Really hope the finally release won't be that blatantly obvious.

With all the new and old nostalgia that comes with it! Fixed cameras aren’t necessary, nor would they improve anything, I grew up on fixed camera and can gladly say I’m glad we’ve moved on! I’m also sick of people acting like RE:Remake was an exact 1:1 remake. It’s not, they added new areas, an entirely new boss, and made zombies terrifying again with the crimson head mutation! So when you’re complaining about a reimagined re2 just remember you’re at least being somewhat of a hypocrite and you should and it should be acknowledged!

But I do truly hope they return to horror as they claim this time. Though even then, they've promised the same concept for every other OTS title, which all ultimately became actions games instead. So here's hoping this one will finally be the real deal.

      @@ShadowLeggy True story and I understand the disappointment I didn't know the support for an RE2 remake was made by support for a classic styled game. I thought it was just support for a remake remake. That being said years ago, players had to live with odd camera angles, fussy controls, and frustrating save systems, which I might add, we old gamers tend to hold on to as to that's what made the older games so great. I believe however that their focus seems more towards growing their fan base by making the remake more updated and accessible to today's gamer. Thus breathing new life into a all but dead franchise, which has me excited to see what they will do with RE after the remake/rewrites. So long as they don't make the remake "easy" I will find great joy in playing it as I'm sure you might as well. I enjoyed how they tried to balance the horror side with the action side in RE7. The simple fact that I didn't even want to buy RE7, but was told by a friend he thought I'd enjoy it says a lot to me about how they are wishing to make RE back into a horror/survivor game franchise.

      Fixed camera angles added to the tension! You could hear creepy steps, roars and other creepy sounds, but fixed camera angles prevented you from checking it out, which made the situation scarier! When you see everything and everyone approaching you in your line of sight as soon as you hear the sound it defeats the purprose of "unpleasant" surprise! Thats how i received my first jumpscare, when Nemesis followed me to the next room in Police Station in RE3 and as soon as i entered it to my surprise i could hear his roar, but couldn't see where he appeared, so the fixed camera angle preserved the tense and scary moment for me! If i entered the room with over the shouler view i would most likely immediately spotted him at my line of sight and it would ruin the scare!

    It happened with RE6, and it happened with RE7 (which btw, did go back to the roots, and I'm not talking about camera or B.O.W.s but the essence) and now (thank god) this Remake is making the original game even scarier by having things like randomized T-00 Encounters is something to really appreciate.
    I don't like Claire's new outfit and "classic with cleavage" outfit either, but the game itself is looking and playing much better than the original and it sure as hell deserves the attention it's getting since I'm sick of all other generic games and their fuss. They are doing what they couldn't do back in the day and the fact they're revisiting scrapped/unused ideas just says all about their enthusiasm with this project. Same goes for coated Ada (which is an original 1998 unused concept and she only wears it during her initial appearance to match with her spy persona) and T-00 with a hat (another unused concept, but you can shoot off the hat if it bothers you that much) and Leon can wear his original outfit for free if that also bothers you that much.

      Literally everywhere you went for over a decade that would be brought up. I still remember on Facebook when on Capcom's official Resident Evil page said they would remake RE2 and Capcom asked the fans how they should remake the game and the most upvoted responses were to have fixed camera.
      Sure everything else was taken into account but when you go so long fighting for having this remade in that way and they couldnt figure it out? They are a multi million dollar company! Ive seen modders be able to do this such as Rod Lima and he is one guy with zero budget.

    I think it's fair to say this kind of reaction is unreasonable. If you were expecting a fixed camera style, as if that would fix every problem in the game, but still keep it a good game for the intended audience, it's not reasonable. I love resident evil 2, it's my favorite game. But it's 2019, and Capcom knows how fixed cameras would work in a modern setting. It wouldn't work. The modern gaming audience would hate the camera style, and would hate the controls. Behind the back isn't my favorite part of resident evil either, but it's what will make the game sell copies. From what I've played of the demo, it feels like they really knew how to keep the "scares", while also reaching another audience. If I can still get a good game, and more over, move on from the original resident evil style, I think I can be happy.
    The game looks like a great game, regardless of the vision Capcom had. And Mr X looks lit with the fedora, he looks like a neck beard. Which is hilarious.

      @ShadowLeggy  5 лет назад +1

      If the classic style of Resident Evil was dead, I don't think REmaster would've become their fastest best-selling digital game of all time. Not only that, but REmaster also proved that the classic style could be given new options for players who don't like tank controls, including an all-new analog scheme. If they could do that in an HD remaster, the possibilities of further implementing options into a brand-new title and engine are almost limitless.
      That's not to say the RE4 style _isn't_ popular obviously, since the reaction is still mostly positive. It's just a shame that they essentially promised a follow up to REmaster, but instead decided to cater to RE4. It is what it is, but being disappointed about being lied to is _not_ unreasonable, I'm afraid. I don't think it's going to be a _bad_ game, it's just not the game I was told we would get.

      So far, it very much seems to be the game you were told you were going to get.
      If we’re going to be technical, REmake was actually more of a modernized version of the RE formula at the time and this formula was then used for Zero afterwards then RE4 happened and changed the series forever. So, it’s not exactly a weird thing for the devs to take a version of the RE formula that’s popular now and polish it up to make an even better experience that’s faithful to the experience of the original. REmake wasn’t even a 1:1 remake, it added as well as expanded upon many aspects that made it its own thing.
      Remake never means remaster, so enough with the lame “betrayal” and “lied to” nonsense.
      From my perspective, a faithful reimagining that does its own thing is more inspired over a boring 1:1 remake that’s only interested in catering toward nostalgia.

    I have the same feelings as you, Leggy. I don't blame you one bit. Even though RE4 was my first RE game, I still went back to the old games and RE2 is my absolute favorite one. In a way it's part of my childhood so I get you. There are some things I do like about the remake but there are some things where I'm like "wait, they're really doing this?" Especially with their damn faces like dear god in heaven, put those things back where they came from or so help me.
    You are right though that we should wait until the game is released and see what will happen. Also, thank you for not doing future animations with the abominations of the characters designs in the remake.

    But I don't even feel like this remake should be considered a remake. It's too far from the source material, and is more of a reimagining of the original game, and can be enjoyed as long as you try not to compare it to the original, which is kinda disappointing. In my honest opinion, I think it's an attempt to bring the games into the modern age to appeal to younger generations, which would be more profitable than catering to older fans. A tad disappointing, but I'll still enjoy it. After all, good Resident Evil games are more and more rare these days

      Hey, sure thing. And thank you as well, it means a lot that you've kept up with my channel for all this time, and that you're still enjoying it :)
      The sad thing about all this, is that it honestly isn't a remake, because when the Capcom's Brand manager was interviewed, he blatantly said as much: sta.sh/0178ea95ee8p Even though when the RE2make project was announced, it quite literally was called "Resident Evil 2 Remake", so yeah... we were lied to, and that's what pisses me off the most.
      That being said, it is what it is. Like you said, they chose to backpedal and target the newer generations instead, and there really isn't anything that can be done. This was probably their last feasible chance to ever make a classic game, and they wasted it, so c'est la vie.

    This was great animation to showcase some of your thoughts on the game. Really enjoyed the joke about Claire and Leon "Lips" Kennedy's new designs; I must agree that they look odd now. I miss Claire's classic costume, too; though I think it's unlockable in some way.
    I found your expanded thoughts in the document you linked as pretty interesting. I wasn't even aware of some of the stuff you pointed out; such as the yelling during combat (seriously, that *SHIIIIIIIT* from Leon is almost hilarious for how overblown it is for a single zombie).
    Here's hoping that maybe it has more surprises or tweaks before the full release. I'm confident it'll be a good game; but I'm not sure if it'll be a good remake for Resident Evil 2.

    • @ShadowLeggy
      @ShadowLeggy  5 лет назад +1

      Thanks, I'm glad to hear it! It seems to be a widely varying opinion on the redesigns, but for me, I started making this as soon as RE2make was revealed, so I based the look mainly on their poster images which are arguably worse-looking than the in-game models, weirdly enough. And yeah, Claire's "classic" outfit is free / unlockable.
      It would be nice if some of those grievances were fixed by the time it's released, though it's only like a month away, so I wonder if it can be done. Hopefully it doesn't have to have the usual day-one patch like with previous games.

I will be playing this though, I wanna see if it’s at least fun. Aside from the reveal trailer I haven’t really watched anything else about the game. I kinda like to be surprised about new releases and actually experience them blind. Might be cool to see what story elements have changed. For better or for worse!

      And yo, THANKS! I figured there were gonna be a fair amount of static poses, so I focused a lot on smaller animations like eyes, mouths, and hair. And I got to go all-out with using the royalty free stock images and effects, they really help the video pop I think, unless anyone finds them too stock-looking. But so far, no complaints!
      It's honestly pretty insane how many screenshots and videos they're releasing about RE2make. Like, to a point where they're apparently revealing most of the game. Some people have even been calling the latest footage "The Spoiler Video", like the fuck is you doing, Capcom? It's one thing to show off a game's capabilities, but damn.
      And yeah for sure, REmake is literally the best, nearly-perfect remake of a game I've ever played (Spyro Reignited looks fucking great, too) so it'll forever be a disappointment that they'll never fully realize what and RE2make could've really been.

    I pray it will work out, but the simple fact they got rid of the little things that made the game what it was like the costume design, the static camera system (and not being over shoulder...), heck even the little sparkles of "item here" has truely saddened me.
    The fact they have gone back to do it at least gives me hope that we will see other remakes of classic capcom games at least and I might enjoy this 1, but I dont know, I didnt play resident evil for a shooter, they just completely changed the genre.

    AAAAH NOOOO, I can't unsee Leons mouth anymore, he looks so... "Alfredly", it's so weird but fitting, I LOVE it. xD
    However I understand what you mean, when I heard about a new Resident Evil 2 Remake I was thinking about the Resident Evil 1 Remake too and I felt a bit disappointed too, because it won't be as nostalgic as it could be. Well, that being said, I enjoyed Resident Evil 7 a lot, the story and the gameplay were great (By my opinion of course), but it wasn't really that much Resident Evil to be honest... I mean: Take away the Easter Eggs, The Umbrella at the end, (and well also the weird de-steroid version of Chris) and then look: It is not really Resident Evil anymore, is it? Resident Evil 4, 5 and 6 were perhaps very much a thing on its own, but they openly used Resident Evils Lore at least.
    I got a bit carried away now, sorry... so... I for my part will try to enjoy it as a game on its own and especially I'll try to enjoy and connect it as and with a Resident Evil game while hoping they got the stuff right.(Like the Soundtracks, if they goofed that up I'd be very disappointed since I really adore some of the music from that game).
    Hopefully you and your husband will be able to enjoy the game as much as possible despite the might disappointment you endure now.
    Soooooooooooo there is just one question remaining that I've been asking every Resident Evil fan I know , because it seems like no one addresses this particular thing... WHY IS MR.X (aka. TYRANT (T-003) aka. TRENCHY) WEARING A HAT?! WHAT THE EVER LOVING MOTHER OF ALBERT IS GOING ON AT THE DEVELOPER OFFICE...? WHY DOES NO ONE SEEM TO NOTICE THAT?! O_O

That's not inherently a bad thing either, but for a game that has such a tight-knit collection of characters, it was pretty jarring for them to go off the rails like they did.

      @Jonathon Lundin: For me, it's mainly the "indicators" that are placed on top of everything. A giant cartoon arrow hovering over items, puzzles, drawers, doors... it completely kills the immersion and challenge. And I remember RE6 literally did have an arrow you could activate to show you exactly where you needed to go... let's hope RE2make doesn't have that, either.

    Here's the issues I have with using REmake remaster's sales as a reason to why Capcom should have went for a near 1:1 remake with the original camera angles, etc. etc.
    REmake remaster is what it is, a HD remaster, and it's one of a game that was a Nintendo exclusive for 13 years until the game was finally remastered. Many people never got the chance to play it because of that, and I'm sure when they saw that the game was available for a mere $20, they jumped at the opportunity. IMO, you can't compare the risk between re-releasing an established game that's been out for 13 years at the time RE2 remake was green-lit vs. making a full price triple A title in a similar manner as the former.
    Zero remaster's sales paled in comparison to REmake's. The PS3 version of REmake remaster sold more copies than all versions of Zero remaster put together, just to put it into perspective. Overall, the sales did not share the same success, and it wasn't even close. I know that this was expected, but as I said above, people never had the opportunity to play what was arguably the best video game remake of all time.
    Now, I definitely don't disagree that Capcom took it WAY too far with the "We Do It" campaign, and I'm certain they are aware of this. They honestly shouldn't have even announced that the project was green-lit to begin with.
    Despite everything though, I want to thank you for still giving it a chance, and your opinion on a video game would never make me want to stop watching your videos. At the time I saw your videos for the first time in 2007, I only had played very little of REmake and 4 was the only Resident Evil I beat, and I never bothered with ANY of the other games from that point on. (I wasn't even aware REmake was even a remake!!) Your videos are what introduced to me to all the other games and got me hooked on this franchise for good, and gave me the interest to play and beat all of the classic titles. I thank you for this.

      My counter argument is that the potential seemed astronomical to bring the HD Remastered style onto the RE Engine, and build it from the ground up. I'm sure even more improvement and modernization could've happened, without sacrificing the "spirit" or Resident Evil 2. But now, sadly, we'll probably never know.
      While yes, RE0 Remastered was not as successful, that's simply because RE0 is not a good game compared to REmake. Not because of the camera or controls, but all of the other strange changes they made to the gameplay. It's essentially like comparing RE4 and RE5. One is loved, one is hated, and it's not because of the camera, but the other off-beat decisions that they decided to implement. Though I do agree that HD REmaster had the benefit of already being known to be an outstanding game, which also must've helped its sales.
      And thank you, I really do appreciate your input and over all, I think you make a good point. That very well might've been what Capcom was thinking, among other things. I'm glad to hear that my videos could interest you in the series as well! If you get RE2make yourself, I hope you have a blast, and maybe you can try some of the older games someday, too!

      @@ShadowLeggy You misunderstood what I said. I saw your videos in 2007, then went ahead and played the other games afterwards! I've beaten every main Resident Evil game with the exception of 6 because I refuse to play that game.

      Oh sorry about that, in that case I'm glad you got to play all the originals! Also, fuck RE6. XP
