Claire: spends three months searching for her missing brother in Europe.
Leon: sends Chris an email.
yeah, that's a huge plothole. Originally, C:V was going to star Jill Valentine (before RE 1.9 was turned into RE3) and some parts of the story would've made much more sense with her, since she was supposed to go to Europe with Chris as per the latter's diary in RE2. The email bit is one of the parts I believe were left over from the very early scenario: Jill gets captured in Europe, she's sent to Rockfort Island and, once she escapes, she sends Chris, with whom she never lost contact, an emergency message. It fits.
thermonuclear collider okay I can totally see how that fits. Because it was stated in RE2 that Chris and Jill went to Europe on vacation. So how did Claire end up in Europe before Jill. when she was still in the city at the same time as Re2s events?
@@3rdwavemedia906 Not sure what you mean. As per RE2 (original), Chris and Jill didn't go on vacation: they were supposed to investigate Umbrella's European HQ. But, because of how things went during the development of RE3 and Code: Veronica, Jill never went to Europe (thus creating a plot hole in the series' chronology). In the remake, it is stated that only Chris is on vacation (Marvin says so to Claire) and from the coded message in the STARS office we know he's after Umbrella, while Jill and Barry stayed behind. Which means that Jill's presence in Raccoon City in the upcoming remake of RE3 will actually be justified instead of being totally random as it was in '99 (back then, I remember hoping an explanation on why she was still in America was going to be provided, since I remembered Chris' diary well, but, from the very beginning of the game, it was clear they simply ignored that bit of the RE2 plot).
I don't see the issue. You can send people e-mails without knowing where they are or if they are even alive. This also came out before smart phones were released and cell phones were just starting to become popular for the masses. I'm assuming she had some kind of hope that Chris was seeing her e-mails and Chris ignored them not wanting to get her involved and so maybe replied sparingly or with very small hints just to let her know he was still alive.
@@AgentSmith-oh7sb Claire infiltrated Umbrella's European HQ looking for her brother and almost got killed in the process: she clearly had no idea where he was, otherwise it would've been incredibly foolish to do what she did. Also, she doesn't send Chris an email: she sends an email to Leon so he can get in touch with Chris. As much as I love the game (and I love it a lot - it's my favorite along with RE2), that's one of the many plot holes affecting it: I still believe it was part of the original flowchart when Jill was the one getting caught and, since it was vital to get Chris on the island, they simply rewrote it to better fit Claire. Code: Veronica's plot is a bit of a mess when you really look into it: a lot of things don't really add up (like Alfred writing in his diary he stole his father's ring to open the secret door behind the painting only to discover the lab where he and Alexia were engineered: their bedrooms are behind that very same door!). Although development was never officially rebooted, it was one of the longest of the original games (2 years, just like RE2 - but we all know 1.5 took at least 1 year) and the release date was postponed at least once and I have all the reason to believe they struggled to the very last minute, which would explain the various discrepancies.
"Steve is dead and... I feel nothing."
lol that was cold
If you play the game, you'll understand......
I thought Claire was gonna find Steve's body but the storyline went nowhere.
I like Steve toward the end. I was shocked he died.
It's funny when you think the only scene of Steve that's good is his death. XDXD I hope they make his character better when they eventually remake this.
Nah corpses are awesome
“Wait you’re not a zombie” has “cmon lady this is a bathtub” energy
Loooool spot on
Do you need a lifeguard?
im not at the beach this is a bathtub
HAHA ! That’s exactly what I thought of
As a kid, I always thought that 3D printer was the most sci-fi thing ever. Oh how times change.
Same. 20 years ago I thought it was impossible... And today I am doing it myself at home.
as a kid, i've read "1984", and thought it's sci-fi as well. so i totally agree.
Same with VR for me. I pictured it being exactly how it ended up. A real dream came true
@@kyle10590 And the tech is only in it's infancy. Imagine what it will be like 20 years from now.
To be fair, when I first saw one in my technology class, I thought it was crazy
The Claire/Steve romance might be the most cursed thing in the entire RE story.
For real. That shit was doomed long before the start of it.
Even Chris would disapprove.
I wonder why we need a Remake so it's actually good. Ok. You can add the "kid" stuff but not this extreme. Even Darkside Chronicles was good.
Especially because Steve isn't even 18.. yikes.
@@Mikerulez101 It was a one-sided romance tbf, Claire always treated him like a brother more than anything else lmao.
And if it was canon, Claire is only 19, two years isn't much of a difference.
"No Steve, don't-don't do that...that's illegal." Funniest comment of 2019
Aaron Cohen cringe-iest character in the entire series, which is saying something
31:35
39:58
I'm raiding in ff14 and I knew exactly what she was talking about. I laughed so hard I wiped my party
Lmao, I laughed my ass off when she said that.
Wesker: *"Look at the power I've gained!"*
Suzi: "Oh. My. God. Wesker is alive! He doesn't sound like a weenie anymore!"
Wesker: Suzi? Stop it!
If only Chris had laughed at Wesker in their fights in Code Veronica and 5. Then he wouldn't have needed to inject him with that serum.
i've got a cousin called alexia, and my dad to this day still says "alexia.. is still alive???" in a super dramatic way everytime he sees her because of this game
Thereby setting off the echo speaker 🔈
thats hilarious. how old are they?
39:55 Steve: "I love you, Claire."
* The Sphere Hunter is not amused *
The fade in to your displeased expression probably made me laugh more than I should have, but I don't regret it.
TBH Claire's taste in men makes sense, as she is a bit of a tom boy herself. Funny how she is manlier than Leon, until Re 4 happened.
@@alessiospurio
How is calling a girl a tom boy a bad thing again?
Jesus..... What is wrong with you dude? Are you in love with video game characters more than human beings now?
I know, that was a nice touch. The scene isn’t as sad compared to the beginning of The Last Of Us.
I felt it was kinda dickish.
the last of us is bad
Wesker beats his ass so bad Chris starts working out and gets mad gains in RE5
Chris: Guess who's back?
Some good that did. Wesker still kicked his ass.
Some good that did. Wesker still kicked his ass.
@@echo12345ish Back again. Redfield's back. Tell a friend.
Yep 😂😂
Fun fact:
Chris Redfield is the first ever playable male character in a Resident Evil game who could use the grenade launcher.
(As long as you view it from the perspective of Code Veronica having been longer in developement than Survivor)
Followed by Ark Thompson, then Billy Coen in Resident Evil 0 and then Ethan Winters in Resident Evil 7 and Resident Evil Village.
Ethan Winters is also the first ever playable character to get both the grenade launcher and the flamethrower in the same campaign.
Additional fact:
To this day, there has never been a playable female character that has had the flamethrower as one of their weapons.
That's........actually pretty surprising to think about.
Cant you use the flamethrower as Sheva in re5
@@LapidotWAV That's true yes.
However, i'm very reluctant to count it, since the flamethrower in Resident Evil 5 is only availlable for one boss fight and you can't keep it afterwards.
It's not even listed as a weapon on most sites.
It is a flamethrower, but it's not a classic Resident Evil flamethrower.
That's why i don't really wanna count it.
@@mynameisharry8739 Can’t you get it using the fairy tale costume as her though, or maybe I just remember the figurine posing with it
I see you're not counting the Mine Launcher from RE4. I imagine because if firing that weapon made your console catch fire, about five people would notice.
"I CIAAAAN'T!"
That entire sequence had me laughing so hard there were tears.
His entire script had me in tears
Oh steeeve
Every scene with Steve is a real laugh riot 😂
His father just turned into a zombie and he had to kill him. How could you not feel sad?
@@takedakurosawa5416 pretty easy when he delivers the dialogue like that lol 😂
Typical, even when he's introduced Steve is just wasting tons of ammo on that mounted gun, he is pretty much a parody of a Resident Evil protagonist tbh.
I remember when I was a kid I'd always get to the mansion and then stop playing. Never could remember why. Thank you.
didn’t think i’d see you here lmfao
I stopped at the very beginning in the graveyard. Them naked white zombies looked particularly spooky and alien-like
Its a very creepy game. It freaked me out hard as a kid. Amazing game
I remember as a kid quitting at the graveyard with those spooky white zombies at the very beginning numerous times before I figured out to examine the briefcase to open it……!
Oof
I was shocked when Chris became a playable character in this game. I Remember playing this game as Claire and saying to myself "Oh I just beat the game. Oh wait. This game continues."
After his whole adventure Chris went home and told himself he’ll never get his ass kicked again. Thus when we see him in RE5, he’s jacked beyond belief. Which is why he also wants Leon to bang Clair. All those workout routines left Chris unable to have kids, so it’s up to Claire to carry the Redfield legacy
You never had many friends, right?
Nobody Cares Your name suits you
Poor Jill
This is canon
@@OceanIgs Actually pretty close to Canon 😂😂
"Acts like a total jerk and runs off with the golden lugers, little bastard" essentially sums it up. Least favorite character.
Same. Resi has some characters that are hard to like, but Steve really takes the cake
I like him ;-; because he's so unlikable. I'm kinda bored of obviously likeable characters
@@lindaunderling4637 agreed with you. Ok the acting was terrible but honestly he was a memorable character in my opinion and I liked him. In the Wii collection he's even more likable thanks to the new direction and voice acting, but still I really like him as a character.
@@lindaunderling4637 - So in that case you must be a big fan of Chief Irons as well, since he's also very unlikable.
@@tigga2300 OG irons yes.
If any RE game is in dire need of a remake/re-imagining it's definitely Code Veronica. There's so much to love about it.
It has lots of materials to play around with for a remake/boot, it does feature luckluster monsters but awesome weapons and locations, A remake is indeed good
ironically RE3 remake was the one that should've stayed remaking similar to the original and RE1Remake/RE2remake, while Code Veronica should've got the remake treatment that RE3remake got. Some content, puzzles, enemies, and rooms in Code Veronica actually benefit by being cut. It was RE3remake that should've kept the stuff that was cut. Clock Tower, The Park, and Nemesis humanoid form(makes him feel less of a threat when he transforms way too early instead of showing how durable humanoid Nemesis was) barely functioning in the acid room before transforming was the stuff that should've stayed
I doubt they’ll do that though I think they don’t want to use the engine in the same way again
@@judehoeffel8130 sadly that's probably true. I know fans would love it. It would be great to see a more grounded dramatic performance from everyone but Aflred.
Ozma Richardson
If they remake CV and make Alfred more serious, I’m boycotting.
1:02 “Gun Survivor released without any problems.” That’s only because its very existence was a problem.
Can't take this girl's "review" seriously.
@@b-chu9747 "Oh no, an opinion is different than mine so they must be the one that's wrong."
@@sarkaztik3228 I have to say, as my personal opinion... I think Gun survivor had potential, had creative ideas, like, The undertakers, Tyrant Factory, and Hypnos... but it's execution was terrible. But at least it was creative, which can't be said about gun survivor 2. Which just scrambles up Code Veronica, and adds nemesis for.. some reason.
Anyone who played Survivor was left wishing for the same memory loss its main character had for most of the game.
Meeting Alfred is one of the funniest cutscenes because of both Claire's 'backwater base' roast and his reaction being to slam the butt of his sniper on the railing whilst offendedly yelling "HOW DARE YOU".
Thank you for explaining all that as though we can’t see the cutscene play out ourselves. 🙄
It’s not funny. I know you wanna believe that, but it ain’t.
Certain fans get together and then decide it’s funny, and then people who wanna feel included in the “fandom” commit to believing that it’s funny when they know deep down it’s not.
It’s not funny. It’s lame.
It’s just one of these weird phenomena when groups of people get together and then individuals wanna prove that they belong. “Hey everyone, guess what!?!? I think Steve’s funny too!!! Did I do it right!? Am I still a member of the tribe?” 😂
Nice emojis.
"Steve is suffering"
Good
Max Ravage omfg 😩
Haha, yes. Let him suffer. Turn off the game.
I guess in the Resident evil universe, there were many characters who faked their death. So, I guess Cap Capcom can still give Steve another shot.
When she says that, she sounds like she was about to laugh
I cringe out of my own skin every time I hear Steve scream "FAAATHERRRR"
I cringe even harder when he whines "I CEEEEAAAAAN'T". I genuinely wanna pull my hair out when I heard that.
@@BIadelores Oh don't get me started, he's the worst character by a mile, a brat, useless unless he has to also look incredibly stupid...and Wesker is kinda not good too but we won't talk about that/
You wouldn't want such story in your life, believe me...
“I’m suury Claire”
Lol yeah he screamed like a scumbag
How I imagine a code veronica remake trailer would go.
Intro
Alexia: Brother, we have a problem.
Edward: Yes Alexia, what is it?
Alexia: Code Veronica.
Cue Gameplay footage.
That would be a cool reveal
Your face showing on the "I love you" was a lot like my face everytime I hear steve speak.
I forgot how over the top the other characters were in this game. I still love the original scene with Wesker, where he gets bitchsmacked by Alexia and says, "Uhh! What power". I fing hated Steve though.
Wesker channeling Vergil in that scene
@@otaldomatheush Vergil is Wesker's spirit animal. Can't stop trying to kill people who are mo-capped by Reuben Langdon.
FATHEEEER!!!
I love how Wesker beats the crap out of Claire lol
16:34
A problem I have with the story
Clair went looking for her brother, ended up on a island, gets to a computer, then messages Leon to message *CHRIS!* and tell him he's being watched. Leon had his working email this whole time! And why didn't she even think about messaging for help? It was Steve that jokingly gave her the idea to ask chris to come.
Its something that has always bothered me and I have yet to see anyone bring it up.
At least 15 other people notice.
Claire couldn’t find Chris after RE 2 because he went off the grid but Umbrella was tracking him and probably had all of his personal info on the computer Claire was reading
@@tyke2829
That's what i was thinking too. But I thought it would be weird for chris to have a email that he would use. If he's hiding from umbrella.
Maybe I'm just over thinking it.
Ok, those are all great resoonses... But...
HELL THE HE'LL DID CHRIS NOT KNOW WHO ADA WAS?
Yes, between this and Leone voice actor change (and personality change overall from RE4) are the two major reasons I WILL NOT consider it canon.
It's actually established that Chris's info is on the umbrella computer as he was under surveillance. So that's really the moment they find him
if you read the book, alexia is communicating telephatycally to her brother while shes incubating in antartica, thats why he is dressing like his sister, she is actually there, through the body of her brother to speak with him
I would've really liked that if it was the case in the novel but ALexia could only communicate with those she infected with T-Veronica. She used her telepathy on Alexander while still in cryostasis to check his mental state. Alfred was just driven insane like in the game.
I love that version of ALexia so much, she has even more abilities like telekinesis and pyrokinesis.
@@jeremyknight9980 thanks i guess i was mistaken. good to know those kind of details.
I’ll get right on that if I ever find myself locked in my bathroom 🚽 or maybe stranded on an airport runway ✈️
So you mean he's not a brave transperson identifying as his sister, in today's world? I'm just fucking here, this stuff is beyond hellish nowadays.
I hate to say it, but Steve is one of the most entertaining parts of CV. Every line he says is comedic gold
Absolutely!!!
Naw he is way too whiny and try hard to be genuinely funny. My ears bleed when he does that "i CEEAAAAATTNNN" bit with his father.
"FATHEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!" lol
"Claire I'm sawry."
He has a humor like coming out of Devil May Cry. Makes sense.
I made the mistake of trying to drink during Steve's death scene. The moment your avatar pop up on the screen I lost it xD
I felt embarrassed watching that Claire and Steve scene. It was so awkward, and Steve was a horrible character.
Danskyl7 Little known fact Hiroki Kato said he designed Steve on a whim cause originally Leon was supposed to take Steve’s place in this game but there was 2 main reasons Hiroki Kato changed it.
A-Shinji Mikami convinced Kato Otherwise cause cause Mikami Really liked Leon and didnt want Leon to die
B-Kato felt as development went on making code veronica another Claire and Leon game would of made people feel like it was just Resident Evil 2.5
Which is funny cause Steve was basically created just to fill Claire’s “partner” role
I could listen to Suzi read a dictionary. These videos are not only informative but also soothing.
@Craig Adams He is employing exaggeration to demonstrate just how much he believes in his statement.
@@majorabdullah9040 you are correct sir. I do believe in my statement. Perhaps the dictionary might be boring but my resolve is not so weak that I would deny such a dream.
Last week Suzi & I went out on a date to Applebees. After dinner we were at my house playing Re2 Remake & cuddling. Later on we started watching Underworld & making out big time but she stormed out mad when I started squeezing her thighs & sucking on those big ass tittìes. Now she won't answer my calls :\
@@WrectumTerror You're trash lol
@@RaZeRbLaDeZ ah i see, a man of culture. Seriusly people here can t take jokes and only comments that praise this lady to death get any likes or get notice, is like criticism, jokes or suggestion can t coexist. Atleast i can say that she is doing great and is not a THOT from twitch. She actually knows about games,heck she has play games that i didnt even knew from ps2 and other developer that i do know.
When i was like 5 my dad showed me steves into going “waaaah” and it has always been one of my most detailed memories with him because of how much we were laughing😂
I’m glad you have that memory with him. :)
I hope you laughing got your dad’s approval. That’s the aim of the game (no pun intended) when you’re an infant. It’s the only social dynamic we know at that age: appease the parent and maybe get a reward.
Sounds like he tragically valued a bad videogame over quality time with his son.
No offence but he sounds like a prick. Now here you are learning more about these games cos it makes you understand and therefore feel closer to a cold and detached father 🫤

Steve sounds like an American doing a REALLY bad Canadian accent
Lol! I thought it was a Canadian trying to do an American surfer accent!
@@ivanco_97 whatever it is, it is some hellish amalgam of the two and it will not be tolerated. Utterly unacceptable.
BigMahoneyIsALoney is he really an American voice actor?
Back then, Capcom was scouting their voice actors in Canada - so Steve is a Canuk trying to sound American.
At least game companies rarely need to worry about their VA's accents when it comes to european gamers who can hardly hear the difference between those two countries' dialects. :) I, for one, can't even difffer Belgium and French etc. But of course, for you guys it's easier to hear. ^^
cant forget the part where in the DC version of RE:CV Steve looked a lot like Leonardo DiCaprio from Titanic and they had to change it for X
And he also dies
I prefer his DiCaprio look honestly.
? DC came after X
@@aaaron7481 DC means Dreamcast not Darkside Chronicles
Thing is with code veronica, the knife is amazing compared to most of the other games. You can rack up so much ammo just by slashing at downed zombies in this game, which helps a ton since you need to resource manage more in this than other games.
Funny thing is it works on big enemies too. Downward knife slashes hit big enemies multiple times. Makes you feel like you're weilding a mini chainsaw.
the knife doesn't feel too op either! I wish the ports of the first 3 games would balance the knife like this.
Capcom: "we're gonna remake RE4!"
Code Veronica: "am I a joke to you?"
Yeah, pretty much, it wasn’t that good.
@@MrMetalforever5 remake can fix a lot of the issues.
@@thebigzan
It deserves a remake more than RE4, IMO.
@@arnahunas4048 I know it does, but go tell capcom that lol and they will slap your face with RE4 remake.
They could give it the RE3 treatment - drastically change a bunch of it to better fit the vision they have now (and get far better voice actors)
nobody:
*Steve: waste a lot of ammo*
glad im not the only one who thought that
Steve is using RE8 ammo availability, clearly.
"The most anime thing Resident Evil has done up till this point"
DISCLAIMER: does not mean "in the history of the series". Or "in this game". Or even "in this cutscene".
RE6 owns the most anime things in an RE game.
RE6 owns the most Michael Bay things in an RE game
murat balamsa RE 4 and 5 are good, but 6, 6 is a mediocre action comedy game with semi good story, you just like action games more then survival horror games
RE 4 is considered the best since it combined action and survival horror so beautifully
RE 5 was a bit too action but still great tense horror
And for 6 it was almost all action not that much horror with confusing things and rushed development, RE 6 from the perspective of the resident evil games as a whole, is terrible trash
RE 7 is a great return to formula that paved way for more great resident evil games and the remaking of 2 and 3
It seems that the problem is, you just don’t understand the resident evil games well enough
murat balamsa Ya know, you think umbrella corps is the worst which is incredibly correct, so by that logic you are fully entitled for your own opinion have a good day
@murat balamsa yeah I make fun of re6 but I'd be lying if I said I didn't have fun. Only Ada's campaign is truly bad to me since it feels unfinished and coop was thrown in.
18:45 - "I am ALFORD ASHFORD"
Surprised I never noticed that before lol
I would be so happy to see this game remade. And Steve could extremely easily receive the Carlos treatment
Things we’ve seen before? How exciting 😐
*"Mysterious" Steve?*
*More like,*
*"Childish" Steve.*
Well...he is a child
Not funny.
I guess in the Resident evil universe, there were many characters who faked their death. So, I guess Cap Capcom can still give Steve another shot.
15:01 "Soh-ry about that little misunderstanding..." -Steve
Claire's PTSD to [Kendo's Gun shop] "soh-ry about that little lady" kicks in
15:05 "Shut up!!"
Watching the “Father!” Scene always made me cringe. After watching the IT Crowd, I always find myself chuckling now when i come across it.
Did you know that you can prevent zombies from breaking into the metal detector hallway at the beginning ?
You just need to block the shutters by going through the second metal detector with a metal item (the original crest or the first aid spray both work if I recall correctly) before duplicating the crest with the 3D printer.
Once the duplication is complete, you can reopen the shutters and the zombies won't break through !
And great video by the way, it makes me want to play the game again !
Steve: I love you
Claire: [Read]
When weskers eyes glowed the younger me thought that he was cyborg
I think the ending beatdown chris got from wesker was what motivated chris to get boulder punching muscles so that he could have a fighting chance next time him and wesker meet again.
That wasn’t funny when the last 40 geeks said it. Don’t any of you have thoughts of your own or do you just copy each other?
It’s clear that Code Veronica has major gameplay design flaws, but you have to admit, the story, atmosphere, and soundtrack are top tier. Awesome video!!
The story is a little cheesy even by RE standards
The gameplay is so bad that it actively hampers my enjoyment of the game, so much so that I can't even focus on the positives. Sorry to say, the story and atmosphere are not enough to look past how much of a mess this game is.
@@handzar6402 that's definitely understandable!!
Maybe it's just me but I honestly never had trouble with the gameplay. The only thing that annoyed me were those damn moths.
31:19 how about that top tier soundtrack
It's sad that Steve's voice actor is so over the top. That moment w/ his dad could've been so tragic and emotional.
And god I forgot how much I love Wesker's voice in CVX! So sexy.
It's still a Japanese game.
And I prefer over the top old games to mediocre shades of grey nobody remembers.
I actually think the backtracking part with Chris is actually really interesting. You get to finally complete all those tasks you missed. I thought it was awesome!
Yeah thought the way they redesigned the base was genius,although I did give up last playthrough cause I didn't save after doing some stuff with Chris and ended up back at the one of the first couple save points and couldn't be fucked figuring out what to do again a few weeks later. First time playing it was mindblowing tho
@@jj80808did u ever finish the game with Chris
@@burymeinjhenny918 yeah I've now completed the game twice,at the time of that comment tho I tried my 2nd playthrough and left the game for a few weeks after dying w/out saving in a while as Chris and I just had NO idea what to do when I loaded up and just wondered in circles.
But played start to finish recently and was a blast.
I played the Dreamcast version of CV when it launched, it blew me away at the time.
Any game on the Dreamcast would’ve blown your mind at the time because all we had up until that point was the PS1 and N64 🤨
Insight
@RoboTurkeyNinja No, there were more than a handful of ugly games on the Dreamcast. A lot of first party games looked good, but there was a lot of 3rd party ports of PS1 games and sloppy low budget games.
Steve sounds like mandark from dexters laboratory 😂😂
I feel like Steve's voice is a little similar to Eric Cartman's voice too
This is the funniest re game I’ve seen
Forgot how agressively CANADIAN Steve sounded lmao
"Aggressively Canadian"
He's SUPER SOHRRY about that
24:34 "I _despiiise_ Chris!"

,"I suppose I should thank you..."
Enter Steve...,: Me: why oh why!?!
The explosive barrels always are placed sooo strategically 😉
Go Go bandersnatch!
Steve, wanted t I star in DMC so badly, he f*cks up RE instead.
Capcom needs to remake this game. Imagine how cool those gothic environments would look with today's graphics
we hope they did after RE Village!
It's probably not gonna happen and Capcom announced that Re4 is most likely getting a remake instead of Code Veronica but it kinda makes sense since Re4 was more successful than CV.
@John Smith Ehem! Re2 got a remake and that was successful. Sure that game has a few issues and the B scenario is almost the same but it still mostly contains moments on why the original was so good. I can understand if you're not a fan of the remake of 3 since it cuts out most of the stuff, enemies, weapons, the worm boss, most of Nemesis' screen time/bosses, etc. But that doesn't mean it's bad. It's still enjoyable for what it is and I'm excited for the announced remake of 4.
@John Smith Ok yeah I'm not a true fan of the RE games but that doesn't mean I know crap. Yes the remake of 3 has issues but that doesn't mean it's not bad. I find it enjoyable and some of the changes are pretty decent. It's not bad but it NEVER tops the original version. Also just because people like me aren't true re fans doesn't mean we're morons. We're just new to the franchise and for me I'm playing the older games so I can catch up with the franchise. I just need a ps1 so I can play the original trilogy.
@John Smith Fake fan? Code Veronica X was the FIRST Resident Evil I played, followed by 2 (original). It's a 22 year old game. A new version will introduce it's storyline to new gamers and may encourage them to play the original. Then they can form their own opinion. Will it lose some of the magic? Probably. But it could be great. I'm up for flipping that coin.
Nothing about this game looked bad coming from saturn/ps1/n64. Was legit mind blowing at the time. Again you had to be there during the time to truly appreciate it
The Dreamcast was when 3D graphics aged better. The PS2 was when it was cemented.
Even at the time I looked the other way. I was a teenager at the time. I replayed as an adult and put it off after an hour. Just not a good game.
There were so many terrific trailblazing games at that time like MGS2, Devil May Cry, Timesplitters, Tekken Tag Tournament, even The Bouncer ffs.
These games successfully made the next Gen leap. You thought “wow, the future is here!” whilst CV looks like it fell behind. A PS1 game with a PS2 texture smoothing things out a bit, except with worse animations that have your character and zombies all move like stiff mannequins. No thanks 👎
It shouldn’t be remade either because they’d have to make too many changes to make it competent, and that’ll anger the Gen Z people who grew up thinking this was a good game.
I was there, it looked bad lol. Pre-rendered backgrounds were still fresh and even to this day look good. CV backgrounds are bad in comparison and look dreadful by today's standards.
I love this CVX's save room theme. Its so majestic and surrounded by mystery on this unknown island in this horror nightmare..
12:38 and 29:48... And that's why in my opinion this games misses the mark..not zero.. Had far greater Mechanics, Graphics, Weapons, Enemies, Variety in Map Design , Including A Section of RE 2 ..Which blew my Mind at the time. Sadly and Ironically.. By Zero not selling well.. At the Start.. We didn't get to See a RE2 Remake Proper " Fixed Camera" back then come into reality.. Funny how history ended up repeating itself, for the better when the HD Remasters of Zero and Remake 1 came out...We ended up getting a RE2 Remake regardless....🤔..Replay Value, Game Modes, Great DLC.. Free I might add...Wesker Mode.. and the story was overall better.. Because it expands the mythos of Raccon City, Umbrella and the STARS Teams.. This is a undeniable Truth..and can not be Disputed.. But your welcome to try. .
With all of that being i still adore CVX.. Always.. It Re Introduced Albert Wesker's return with A fucking Vengence.. One the Greatest RE Villians of All Time..
Ironically..If it wasnt for the 1st Set of HD Remasters of Remake and Zero .. On PSN and XBOX Live..Breaking Sells Records.. We would've gotten RE2 Remake.. And If it Wasn't For RE 2 Remake..Breaking Sell Records ..We would'nt have RE 3 coming out in 2 months..And so on and so on..lol.. Undeniable Truth..
I enjoy long RE videos. So much to cover in each game. The resident evil story and lore is just so much fun. You did a great job putting this video together.
revisiting these videos because they're so nostalgic to me, I love how your videos capture the atmosphere of the games if that makes any sense. Thanks for being awesome suzi!!!
I can’t believe CAPCOM doesn’t even consider remaking this. This is the RE game that deserves the most remake cause it’s a total balance of horror, mystery, and action. The fact that they’re considering remaking RE4 than RECV tells us that CAPCOM only wants cash.
Code Veronica isn’t the one that people have been calling one of the best games of all time. Even if you don’t agree with it, it still stand as the dominant opinion and that’s what Capcom will cater to
@@ignaciovitalis3971 All the more reason to remake it. They keep remaking the ones that’s already great instead of the ones that has many faults. Still, CV has one of the best storylines and characters. Hell, this is the only game we saw the Redfields together.
@@ignaciovitalis3971 In much more to-the-point words: "It's absolutely only about money."
RE4 is still very playable and not really that dated at all other than graphics (and even then they're still pretty good, considering). To remake a game that doesn't even need it when there are plenty of other RE games and sidegames that could heavily benefit from a remake is pretty telling. Capcom has never listened to "popular opinion", so let's not pretend that's a thing. They look at statistics and determine if they're going to sell well. If they cared about popular opinion the terrible RE3 remake would never have been released in the condition it was (and still is) in.
@@sarkaztik3228 In hindsight I would rephrase my comment but I feel like Capcom thinks it knows what we want. Perhaps Capcom thinks that if people see 4 as one of the best games of all time, remaking it would make it the bestest game of all time while remaking CV is just making a good game better. Remaking 4 will only make another good game but is a complete waste of time to make if the original is still accessible to more recent fans. A CV remake is full of untapped potential by being a weaker entry. If it isn’t broken don’t fix it, CV will clearly benefit more from being “fixed” than 4 ever would.
The remake thing is on a roll. They spent years telling everyone that if there was enough fan support, that RE2 would get the REmake treatment. It did. And it's going really well for them, and the fans.
Just calm down. It might be a while but they'll give REmake treatment to CVX after Village and RE4 have settled. And it'll be your favorite, and we'll all enjoy it.
That final Steve "fight" had me put down the game for years before retrying again. 😖
I always used the bow gun flame arrows on him.
I just run away, use some herbs and done
RE 3 had *so many* quality of life improvements, it's incredible
At this point I think I've seen close to all of your RE videos and all I can say is thank you. In the last few months of a not so chill deployment and right in the times I needed it most, this channel has taken me back to my childhood and some of my favorite memories playing through these games. Don't ever stop.
VERY USEFUL TIPS: When you get to the Tyrant boss in the airplane equip your Grenade Launcher, put in 3 B.O.W. Rounds inside and take some Acid Rounds. As soon as the cutscene is over fire 3 B.O.W. Rounds and 2 Acid Rounds, hit the button and he’s dead.
Also, save your powerful fire (I think) Bow Gun Arrows and shoot them all at Alexia, don’t stop shooting! After a bit (You may have to heal once) she will transform and go to the second form of the boss. You should be fine after that.
Hope this helps.
I prefer to use the explosive arrows on the Tyrant on the plane. They have him limping within seconds.
Good to hear other strategies though 👍🏻
I really want Capcom to remake both Resident Evil 3: Nemesis and Resident Evil Code Veronica X in the same style as RE2
Well we're getting Nemesis one more to go
With RE3 getting a release in April, RE Code Veronica will almost certainly be the next remake. Code Veronica needs it badly considering it aged poorly graphic wise.
I want them to do it because I stupidly gave my PS2 copy away to a friend years ago.
Prof. Genki you can still get the game. If you are gonna get it, get the Cube version. Big mistake on my part selling it. I ended up downloading the shitty PS2 port on the PS4.
@@captainjaber5610 code veronica and the outbreak series is all thats left really
Good to have you back Sphere Hunter. Haven't heard from you in a while.
I know, what happened???
I really wish they'd do a remake of this game
The way you talk about resident evil is almost poetic, I could and I did listen for hours , thanks for the great work.
Me with any RUclips video over 15 minutes: I cant watch that it's way too long
Me with a 54 minute Sphere Hunter resident evil video: how many times can I watch this before my phone dies?
54 MINUTES??? THAT EXPLAINS WHY IT TOOK SO LONG. I LOVE YOU GIRLLLLLLLRJHUIVBUI
Your work documenting RE series dev and history is seriously underrated. I get that you had help on credits part, but still, you tell these games story really well
I have thoroughly enjoyed watching you RE retrospectives. Thanks for making them. :) I hope to see more of them in the future.
in the dreamcast version wesker gets his ass kicked by alexia in the cutscene,i guess they changed it for the ps2 version to show his new powers more.
I never liked Steve. He felt way too immature to me.
The Alexia Casting fire with her blood always had a Parasite Eve vibe to me!
You’re not the only one who feels that way! The PE vibes from Alexia are huge and Steve isn’t good unless you speak about DSC Steve, who I actually felt something for!
Well, he IS supposed to be 17 years old
Darkside Chronicles wrote him way better.
HES 17 MAN.....HE SHOULD BE IN SCHOOL
does anyone like that brat?
As much as I’d love to see this game remade I really want to see an Outbreak Remake
Didn’t they already do that with RE3R?
I didn’t bother playing it. I don’t play RE games to deal with dumbasses on the internet 😂
you've been showing up in my recommended lately. This was one of my favorite ones
Damn I feel alone. I just finished the game and I actually kinda liked Steve. And was sad at his death. XD.
You are not alone. I hated him (as intended) but by the end it was so sad. You wouldn't want to have a life like his... All he had in life was this short time with Claire.
I am with you.
My first RE game and my favourite to this day
Imo it had the best use of fixed camera angles
CV is my favorite as well, i also think it had the best music compared to all the other RE games, this gets a lot of hate because it's one of the more difficult ones, but i love a challenge and getting that A rank was the ultimate challenge loved it!
Agreed, Code Veronica is easily one of the best RE games alongside RE2 (original) and the RE1 remake. I can understand why some people may not like it, but for me the positives vastly outweigh the negatives.
I love that they made sure you knew that Steve was French by having him say, "Claire! Oui, oui, don't shoot!"
I feel at home again when watching your videos. Love all RE games, along with DMC series and any games under the survival horror genre. With your calm voice and story telling, helps me unwind and recall all our childhood memories. Instant subscribe!
Rueben Langdon is the Andy Serkis of gaming
Fun fact, he’s not only the mocap for Dante (in addition to VA), but he’s also the one for Chris, especially in RE5.
So imagine Dante punching a boulder. Now it makes more sense. At least to me it does. Haha.
@@somaoni8806 I'm fired up! *Punches Boulder*
Soma Oni He also did the mocap for Chris in Code: Veronica. I believe that was his first time doing mocap for the character.
But Andy Serkis is the Andy Serkis of gaming.
What I took from this video:
Resident Evil Code Veronica anime Edition.
Steve's va is awful.
"What was that music?" - the sphere Hunter.( that made me laugh by the way)
And the best one Steve saying I love you to Claire and sphere having the best blank look on her face lol. Just the way he said I love you and the blank look it's perfect.
the music in CV is my favourite of the series still to this day, I love RE2's ost but man, CV just hits different, the save theme is my personal fave of all of the music from RE, even beating out Serenity from RE4
Also I can't hear or read the name 'Steve' without hearing Alyson Court as Claire say that name in the variety of ways she does, i fuckin love this game
That’s just nostalgia
What a great video. I just finished replaying CV and so many of the things you said made me shout "EXACTLY" out loud. Especially when you brought up that freaking elevator in the training facility. That elevator can burn in elevator hell.
Honestly my biggest problem with the game was the amount of time I spent watching doors open. Pure agony. I enjoyed Claire's half but by the time I got to Chris and saw I had to go through the military base again I became super bored.
Also in regards to Chris, I love him but I feel like he steals Claire's thunder and finishing the last fourth of the game as him was stupid and weird and it felt like a huge disservice to Claire. It really felt like this should have been a solo game for Claire.
"Rat in a cage."
WHY am I thinking of The Smashing Pumpkins when he says that to Claire? Please tell me I'm not the only one...
You're definitely not.
i see what you did there you clever bastard lol
@@ashworthgames It wasn't exactly intentional. XD
The Anti B.O.W grenade rounds and around three Explosive Arrows also finish the second Tyrant extremely quickly
Yes, The bowgun was heavily nerfed here, but thankfully they introduced the explosive arrows, only use them to take out bandersnatches
Alternatively, if you have a full round for the bow gun, you can unload the whole round and kill him just like that
My second video of yours to watch. Simply excellent. Subscribed.
I come to your videos to reminisce about the times in my life in which I played these games, sometimes I come back for comfort, sometimes to cry… thank you sphere hunter
The two guns was from John Woo films. It was seen as cool at the time and numerous films started doing it like The Matrix.
Nosferatu has always been my favorite Resident Evill boss. I remember fighting him for the first time as a kid late at night alone. Him and his theme that plays during the battle creeped me out!
Perfect voice for this channel and music this is one of my favorite channels right now excellent editing once again.
I have to say, I feel joy whenever I can hear you smile talking about these games you love.
You’re being chatted up 😂
Your reaction to Steve's death was delightful, lol. Love CV, but I'd forgotten about some of the more frustrating elements. Especially that airplane fight!
Favorite thing from Code Veronica was all the flash animations made about it by Legendary Frog, can't unhear Alfred's laugh
Just discovered your reviews. I really like them they're both dense and complete ! You won a sub.
What a great video!! I’ve owned Darkside Chronicles for years and hadn’t even realised the CV connection. Cheers!
Explosive bow gun bolts make the second Tyrant fight and Alexia fights super easy.
Solidus Snake I lump those in with “flame weapons”.
Most op weapon in the game, it doesn't count -_-
yea if you save em for alexia the fight is a joke
Super Easy. Barely even an inconvenience.
I made the mistake of leaving it with claire. Ruined my save at the very end of the game
When I first found out Steve was a character in the resident evil franchise it was on The dark chronicles he had a mature voice that's what I liked about him. But on this one he just sounds like a bootleg Sonic the hedgehog or even a reject.
I envy persons that enjoyed the Dreamcast, literally is my dream to have one and have that SEGA-esque arcade sensation at home
Literally?
such an amazing game from a golden era
My favourite line in the game from Clair was: "Alfred you crossdressing freak"
