- While the Resident Evil 3 Remake was a disappointment, let's talk about the time Capcom created the greatest video game remake of all time: Resident Evil. Join me in this retrospective, review, video essay, etc. as I detail this fantastic survival horror game.

Fun fact: RE4 uses the exact same tank controls, but with an over the shoulder perspective...
Buyers was tired around code veronica of the original formula
This is exactly why I’m always confused by the “tank controls don’t work” argument. REmake did well on multiple re-releases, and RE4 has a ludicrous number of ports and its tank controls are never brought up.
@@ethanevenson3855 cause re4 is over the shoulders
@@johnlawful2272 That changes nothing about the controls, they’re nearly identical to RE3.
@@ethanevenson3855 re5 is the best selling re game remake as good as it was will not do as well if they go back to tank control that's not over the shoulders code veronica is proof
when I first saw the article on this game I was so excited I ripped it right out of the magazine, as I did not have money to pay for it. We nailed up blankets over the windows and played the game. We'd get so nervous that we'd have to throw the controller at one another, "here, you take it!"
Lol you made me nostalgic with that
"Game Journalist" being a difficulty setting is hilarious and amazing
Man bro wish re3 remake was like the first one that’s how it’s done .
They got a nice taste after RE2 Remake. They rushed a mediocre game for the big cash-in. Then they released both games together shortly after. People call me a whiner. I just call bullshit when I see it. Remember when Capcom gave us free content? Free costumes? RE7 really milked us for DLC. Survival Horror has really gone downhill in the last few years. Sorry for the rant. I totally kept buying whatever was put out there. Not any more.
re3make is better than og nemesis.
@@teh0wnz0r76 Are you daft? Were you born in 2000 Mr. Dingle? Get outta here.
@@handsolo1076 take off ur nostalgia goggles buckaroo
@@teh0wnz0r76 nah. I like quality. RE3R is an on rails mini tour of the original survival horror classic. It's not nalstolga. It's common sense.
I'd like to hear your opinion on more Resident Evil titles.
I second this
Fourthed
on my first playthrough, i knew this game was great when i figured out what you had to do with the dog collar and subsequently the item you get from it. up until that point i had never played a game that asked me to examine an item in my inventory to interact with it. looking back that’s pretty standard for this franchise, but for me that single moment ended up cementing my love for this game
man, really makes me whistful that this style of presentation fell out of favor after the ps1 era, i mean just look how amazing it looks, straight up better than many modern titles still
It's too intelligent for this new generation of gamers... I hope someday they will go back to this style though.
Same here, I was honestly hoping for an RE2 and RE3 Remake in this format
this game is so much fun. i love being in a save room and planning out a little mission. "i need to take x and y items and also take this key to unlock its doors along the way so i can discard and then might as well pick up that herb i passed earlier. i'll be using up a turn of the broken door knob so i should do that nearby puzzle so i shouldn't take my shotgun shells in that item slot. also use a grenade on the zombie in that one hallway since i'm going back there next"
Yeah, it's the same that I do. I always take a few minutes to plan what routes to take and what items to pick. And since crimson head exists and even regular zombies take a lot of damage before falling down, It's like a strategy game where killing the zombies is the last thing I want to do to avoid long term problems. And because the shotgun it's not a 100% headshot rate, you are never too cautious.
My first RE game was actually RE3 Nemesis on PS1 & I was totally hooked on RE4 years later on PS2. Never played the OG RE1 & so glad CAPCOM "remastered" (albeit not good enough imo) the game cube remake of RE1 so we could play it in this recent time. RE1R is definitely still a perfect remake of RE games so far.
Shinji Mikami proved himself to be a master of horror game back then & still is with Evil Within games. I sure hope he bring something unique with Ghostwire Tokyo even though the key game designer of that game left the company.
The tank controls, ASMR and fixed camera angles had a very profound effect on me as 10 year old. The squish of the zombies steps and the moans creeped me the hell out but now I'm sickly nostalgic for it. 2002 remake had a different effect on me, I was older and knew what the game was but was blown away by the reshaping of the tone and the obvious new bells and whistles the original didn't have. New areas, items and puzzles.
Also the fact that you start with just a handgun and no ammo on backup which means you only have 15 shots so you have to choose wait until you have the ammo or use up all 15 shots
What's very baffling is some of the new fans are saying that this isn't a remake and that "it's a remaster". No! this game is more than just a graphical upgrade and improved voice acting. The game adds new enemies, new locations, new gameplay mechanics, new boss encounters, redone puzzles and most importantly it gives us false expectations. These false expectations allow even veterans of the original to stay on their feet because everything you expected has been completely subverted. This is how you remake a game you add, expand, and improve not cut and downgrade. I rest my case.
It's built from the ground up so it's def a remake
Played through the whole series, and honestly no other re game will ever top this one IMO. It's not over the top goofy action with stupid stuff like boulder punching, or giant satellite lasers from space, or weird folktale stuff. It's straight to the point, simple in concept, and it gets at the very core of what resident evil will always be at heart
Jill is so cute in this one.
Right? She just looks cooler overall though really. They keep changing things that arent broken...
The best Jill hands down. This game is just a masterpiece.
Facts
bruh only 2.5k subs you definitely deserve to have more then that homie 👍🏼 great video
I’m a simple woman: I see REmake content, instant like and shared with my fellow RE friends. I just can’t get tired of REmake, which I consider my personal favorite and the best RE game ever made, along with what a remake should look like. Just found your channel and I have to say your content is really cool!!
fully agree, the only RE i mastered 100% (even tho i finished all of the cannon games)
Synth is finally settling down
Capcom Production Studio 4 pretty much created the greatest survival horror game of all time (RE1 remake) and then 3 years later they went on to create the the greatest third person shooter of all time (RE4). Capcom Production Studio 4 should have been kept together no matter the costs and every single piece of DNA from those individuals preserved and saved as mankind patrimony. Even the guy that cleaned toilets there must have been some kind of genius.
Shinji and his team deserve to be seen as some of the greatest game developers with team silent and kojima productions.
my first resident evil was 4, never played the old ones for years and recently with no games to play, i decided to give the old ones a try, started with 2 (i love the remake of it btw) and damn i got surprised, the game is so good, better than the remake in almost everything, since then i played all the old games and they're my favorites
15:13 Chris trying to kill the zombies only to fail and get grabbed and then run is funny as hell
Why is it sped up, I couldn’t watch with a straight face ☠️☠️☠️
for me this is not just my fav RE game it's my fav survival game ever great video my man 👍
So glad to see someone point out that easy yet pain puzzle almost 13 min in. You have to be pretty much right on the pixel with that one, there is no close enough.
While the best survival horror game will forever be Silent Hill 3, this one is the best remake ever and the best Resident Evil game hands down.
On the side note, whenever someone says to me that tank controls are bad I automatically assume them to be mentally handicapped because, let's all be honest, forward is always forward, my God..
Well, no; if I'm facing right at the entrance, and I want to go forward into the room, I have to push left, not forward, before I can do so. That's counter-intuitive and constantly fucking annoying as you have to adjust. If the game is smart enough to make sure that never happens, then it's not TOO bad, but many games aren't. Besides, why is my character so mentally handicapped s/he can't fucking walk sideways?
I hate to be that guy, but. Why are you playing the game not using tank controls, while convincing the player that it is good? (I love the tank controls, I only play classic Biohazard, with this)
Yeah I noticed that too, with him zipping around quickly with the 3D controls lol. The 3D controls kinda break the game imo, because it trivializes the enemy encounters since you can just easily run circles around them and juke them with little issue. The zombies are programed to move in a tank-like fashion, so playing using the classic tank style movement option keeps it more balanced since you have the same movement limitations as the zombies.
If only they released this game for the PS2 as well, in 2002. Correct me if I'm wrong, but their original plan was to remake 2 and 3 in this style if this sold game sold enough copies. What could've been...
The fact RE2 never got a remake in this form is criminal. I always felt capcom were pussies for making RE2 remake in the damn over the shoulder style. When they announced the RE2 remake I hoped they would have the balls to make it true to form like the RE1 remake but they took the easy way out and played it safe with the 3rd person shooter approach. I always feel really sad whenever i play the RE2 segment in RE Darkside Chronicles, because the graphics look like what I'd imagine a RE2 GameCube style remake would look like, ugh.....
More people would've played this if it was also released on PS2. It was hard for me to convince people to play it because I didn't know anyone else who owned a GameCube. The graphics and the gameplay of this game are still remarkable in today's standards. So far, it's the only game that made me constantly scared.
Awesome vid. Subbed.
I love the drab aesthetic to the whole game, and the cinematography of each fixed camera screen. The gore and shuffling of the zombies in RE2 remake would make this the ultimate undead experience if they were combined.
I never understood why people dont like tank controls. what dont people get? I find it very easy to maneuver, especially in a game like this.. anyways, good video. Subscribed 👍
It's like an RC car
Yeah, I find them to be more comfortable than the implemented standard controls for the HD remastered version
I think it's sort of like Inverted controls, some people are wired for it and some aren't, In my experience it's possible to get used to whichever one isn't my forte but it takes a decent amount of effort and with something like controls it creates an almost visceral disgust sensation when first adjusting which is a bit of a big ask for some people to get through even if it doesn't take long to adjust.
I think it's because it throws people off and don't like their movement be limited by these types of controls, most people like when a character goes to the direction they push the stick, and when that doesn't happen in a game like this, it tends to mostly leave a negative impression on most first-time players.
Yet they don’t complain about their beloved RE4 using the same controls. Guess it’s the fixed camera angles they can’t handle.
Synthetic Man!!! The boy! Always with the fire content
This is one of the great GameCube games when i got this this for GameCube I was blown away
I must disagree. Chris is my favorite and i've finished game on real survival where item boxes are not connected so I had to transport relevant items to nearest item box and I was loving it. Especially how much less ammo and healing items are at that difficulty its perfect for that game. Jill is too easy although I like her part too, but Chris is exactly what I wanted
My favourite RE game. I was devastated when 2 and 3 were remade in full 3D.
Same, especially sad they cut out so much content. But somehow they're called "masterpieces" (well at least 2 was called that)
I had fun playing RE2 remake, but it wasn't as consistent as the original game, with the new sewers and lab being too long and tedious.
And with RE3... i don't think I have to say it.
Cope. Remakes are better Reagan Supporters
@@thegreatpiginthesky3904 🤡
I played this game over and over on GameCube when it was fresh. My GF would go out for the night (yh i know) and i would play this in the dark on a beautiful CRT. The atmosphere in this game is still unmatched to this day imo. Being an expert on the PS1 games,this REmake blew me away. I honestly think it's one of the best games ever made. People complaining about the controls or ammo amounts clearly don't realize that it is intentional. God i miss those days so much. F-Zero GX,Resident Evil 1 2 3 4 and 0,Metroid Prime,Burnout,Splinter Cell and countless other great games. We were drowning in good games at that point in time,across all formats. Even the 'Middleware' AA games Synth talks about were great. Urban Chaos,NHL Hitz 2003,Phantasy Star Online,Black, the list is endless. I'm greatful to have played and completed 100's of great games in that time period. Peace and love people.
that game journalist mode joke almost killed me.
The mansion was so good that I chose to walk through most of it to appreciate the detail.
Best video game remake? Probably yes. Best Resident Evil? It is up there, but I still like RE2 1998 or RE3 1999 more. Sucks we didn't get proper remakes of those two since both RE1 Remake and RE0 did not sell well.
RE1 Remake is so good it does replace the original as the best version to play, though RE1 Director's cut 1997 is good too. Avoid the Dual Shock Director's Cut with its horrible new music.
RE0, RE:CV, and RE Survivor are likely the worst RE games.
RE0 has good moments, but it is a terrible prequel that does not line up with the 2002 Remake or the original 1996/97 RE1.
RE:CV has a good opening, but has likely the worst boss fights and went full anime action.
Survivor, yeah...
one of the best survival horror games ever made and is my favorite while 4 being a close second.
I’m playing it for the first time currently, and I do enjoy the game.
Only gripes:
1. The amount of time I spend going through doors.
2. Having to go back to a box because you can’t drop or discard items.
1 mistake i made was watching a walktrough and playing at the same time while alt tabbing to the video every 30 seconds because i thought i would get stuck and dont know where to go constantly, that took all the fun out of me and i ruined the experience. It is better to play the game for 30 hours getting lost because game never tells you where to go than to play with a walktrough.
There is something about Lisa Trevor that still breaks my heart. It is such a tragic story that just brings tears to my eyes. Go to hell Umbrella 🎮😢
It's the saddest story in all of Resident Evil.
I'm glad you mentioned how Resident Evil needs some camp to it. That's a big reason I love those games. Silent Hill is serious Jacob's Ladder while RE is Night of the Living Dead. I understand how tank controls can be frustrating to new players but I definitely think they should stick with it because REmake is so damn good. I often debate if I prefer this or CVX.
PS I found it funny how that guy's other monitor is Jill Rule 34.
Brother I know it's a lot to ask but I would very much appreciate a middle earth shadow of war review from you
I know there a thousand ones out there but all are bs and not after the extreme changes done to the game but I think you would do it justice but if you don't have time to do it totally understandable
was about to say dead space 1&2 is the pinnacle of survival horror to me. made me jump like 100times on a first playthrough. intriguing and terrifying enemies while offering a ton of action. also just a personal thing i guess but to me space seems way more horrifying than zombies that are surreal
Been with RE since 97 this is my favorite RE it's the Classic formula perfected Mikami's magnus opus, only nip picks are Yawn is nerfed, fewer Hunters, no "Still Dawn" Credits & you can't toggle ODZ before NG+. Overall it's my second favorite Horror game just behind Silent Hill 2. This game sold me the Gamecube, the series should have progressed in this style. @Synthetic Man have you played the Saturn version of RE1 with the Battle Game, Gold Tyrant & the Ticks?
Nope, is it worth playing that version for the changes?
@@SyntheticMan yes only if you have a Sega Saturn or emulation & you're a RE enthusiast. The first "Battle Game" in the series is a little fun precursor to RE2 Dual Shock Edition's Extreme Battle, the Underground Ticks are an interesting change, different costumes & Chris's Story in the Lab there's a cool unexpected twist. NOTE it's based on the original release so no Director's Cut Vibration, Auto Aim or "Arrange Mode".
It is a masterpiece. No question there. I know it. I loved those games as a kid. But now 32 years old boy...i found myself to be really strained and feeling tedious with the endless backtracking and pointless searching around leading to nowhere. I even used a guide and still felt tedious. And that makes me really sad... that i can't anymore enjoy something that i used to..and that i KNOW for a fact that is great
I can feel that, 35 now. But we know what a good horror Game looks like. I'm looking forward to Callisto Protocol and the Dead Space Remake. They both look and sound great
This game came out in 2006, and still holds up well to nearly everything that has come since. 100% masterpiece.
2002 not 2006
That's what's awesome about prerendered backgrounds, they look amazing even without a lot of technological power and they allow for all the polygons being rendered to just be in the characters and enemies so they also look much better than they should.
@@kingdomkey2262 Yeah I always think 2006 for some reason, which is funny because I bought the game on both GC and PSN lol.
@FGC_ TeaVirus was that when the remaster dropped?
Your review of this game got me into resident evil. Thanks!
RE1 remake is the best RE game hands down. And the absolutely best remake I have ever played. The love for source material and attention to details is WORLD CLASS!
Easily my favorite video game. I’d love to see another remake similar to 2 & 3 w/ over the shoulder view.
What amazes me with this game is 1) It was released just 5 or 6 years after the Saturn/PSX version. Yet the graphics improvement is stunning. 2) The remake itself has been out for 20 years and still holds up graphically with many modern games.
Really upset some of my fav content creators are so small. Maybe its to keep them humble and within a certain condition. Wonder why Dragon's Dogma did somewhat well... Anyway great vid man. Best of luck in the future you and my boy treeghettox.
I’m so with you I’m thinking RE7 went too serious.
The "we'll be right back" part killed me!
Lisa Trevor is perhaps the single most horrific and disturbing "monster" I've ever seen in a game.
Crimson heads can also open doors
No, only normal zombies and hunter can do that
The fact that you're using analogue controls kills me inside a little bit.
Normal easy and game journalist haha.
I love REmake, but one of the main shortfalls for me is just how uninspiring the special difficulty modes are. They could have done something really simple like making the zombies fast like Forest, or make dealing with crimson heads harder. The crimson heads are a really nice addition for new players but once you have some experience they become almost irrlelevant.
13:03 Jill on the right monitor 😳
I've tried the game. I can tell it's good, but I can't get past the camera angles. Especially when shooting zombies. Missed so many shots.
Hey guy, i really enjoy your content, congratulations i hope you keep it up.
I haven’t really played Resident Evil in my life, but i’m curious about the lore and the games and this video is very nice for it.
Do you happen to have a discord server or something? If not you should because it’d be nice to interact
I have thought about starting a channel Discord server, I might do that in the near future.
Yea bro the best re remake ever made love this game
I agree with everything except telling people not to play as Chris. I played as Chris first and I felt like a boss when I beat it with him first. Jill is a bit too hand holdy if you ask me.
I always thought the Crimson Heads were bs. They instant agro to you no matter where they are in the room. Also trying to burn multiple bodies at once with the lighter was tedious af
The only re1 remake that was done right love this game
I remember buying Re2 for the the gamecube - thinking it was a similar remake like this, it was not.
Trivia
1. The differences between Chris and Jill were 100% intentional as stated by the developers. I'm surprised you didn't mention that Chris has more health than Jill. Jill is definitely meant to be easier than Chris.
2. I like One Dangerous Zombie mode (unlocked after being both Chris and Jill on normal or hard on the same file), but my problem with the gimmick is it can't be switched off once you unlock it. You would have to play a save file that hasn't unlocked yet to avoid playing with that mode activated.
3. Real Survivor mode was the prototype version of the game. It was deemed too difficult for standard play.
RE1 remake the best RE game ever made? Yes. RE2 (the original one) is a close second. RE3 (the original one) is a close third.
Have you ever played the Thief trilogy on PC? Thief Gold, Thief 2: The Metal Age, and Thief 3: Deadly Shadows all came out around the same time as the old RE games, from 1998 - 2004. In my opinion, they surpass the Metal Gear Solid series. They're my favorite stealth games and favorite trilogy of games on PC. I'd love to hear you're opinion on them someday! I'd consider buying them for you on Steam if you want to review.
Amen.
I’m a huge MGS fan, but from the pure stealth gameplay and level design standpoints, Thief was superior. Thief 2 is one of the 3 games I consider perfect.
It ALWAYS bothers me when people rate 4 over REmake.
Listen people are allowed opinions, just as an OG fan I cannot fathom the thought.
Remake has better survival horror, better sound design, better graphics, better puzzles, better setting etc.
And I love 4, Leon is also my favorite character in the franchise but Remake and RE2 Remake are in in a class of their own to me.
Congratulations bitch, you've convinced me to play it. Im a huge fan of 4 and didn't think I would like any of the game before the changes that game brought. But I loved RE2 Remake and I think I will love this as well. Ive come to trust your opinion as being genuine and frank and you appreciate hard ass old school games like me so after this review I gotta play this. Mission accomplished.
I'm only 50 seconds in and already I agree with you completely ha
it looks like youre using the alternative control scheme for the entire video as far as i can tell
I wish they thought of implementing both at the same time. Tank on dpad and alternate on stick works really well in Outbreak.
RE0 gets undeserved hate imo. It is the resident evil with the most item management, few resources, backtracking, hard and plentiful puzzles, difficult enemies (fuck the bat), beautiful scenery and ambient at par with re1re, it is long game. I would say it is the complete opposite of re3re, it is a resident evil on steroids.
People criticize the lack of the box, but it is not mandatory to bring all the items with you, just as it is not mandatory to waste time burning the bodies in re1re, and it adds an extra layer of difficulty to the game. It is also full of lore.
On the bad side, leechman music sucks, hookshot sucks, the bat sucks. Other than that i cannot think of any more negatives.
Honestly I just remember hating switching between characters and remembering where I dropped items across the map. Also, the story was dumb and unnecessary, imo. I'll play it again next year and see if it's better than I remember.
@@SyntheticMan I dont know why switching characters would annoy you. You can either go separate or bring both of them along for extra inventory space. Regarding dropping the items, you would usually drop them in the same spot, but if not the map tells you where you dropped the items pretty clearly.
The story doesn't fit well that's true, but on its own it is okay.
I bet you will enjoy it next time you try it :p Cheers.
RE0 is in my top 3 along with RE remake and RE2, everytime i see someone hating on it it's for the switch mechanic and inventory, wich i find really weak excuse to shit on it.
You forgot to mention as well around 14:40 "and Jill is easy on the eyes."
I really miss PS2 and early xbox 360 era japanese stories. They were kind of bad, but i really miss them. Even though i like realism, i think RE7 is my least favourite RE game, because of the story and characters.
great review on this masterpiece !
I'm curious what do you think about RE0. I'm not a fan of that one. From mechanical and story point of view.
It's easily my least favorite classic RE, and probably the 2nd worst game in the main series (RE6 is #1, of course). I pretty much hate everything about it. Swapping between characters, no item boxes, stupid story, those zombie monkeys, and the game itself being a soft retcon.
@@SyntheticMan I had completed the game about dozen times over the years. Last time I played it I quit it halfway through. Item management's a real pain.
@@SyntheticMan I don't even consider it as canon. They didn't include any information in REmake even though RE0 was already in production. :)
Will you ever do a review of Resident Evil 7? I'd love to hear your thoughts on that.
RE 6 is very underrated - one of those games that just attracted unwarranted hate and it just gained a rep from there.
Between this and your last comment, it seems you just like bad games.
@@BWMagus cope, RE6 is fun.
I think this is the perfect resident evil. I cant literally think of anything I dislike about it.
i only wish a game with "game journalist" difficulty would lead you straight to the credits with pictures of ethnic people
So I whent back and played the original along with 2 and 3 for ps1 . Just to recap before I hop into the remakes and 8. I've never beat 1 before and after doing so its now one of my favorites. I started the remake and am looking forward to getting farther into it
as a current player in this generation that started playing games in the 360/ps3 era. I gave fixed camera angles a try and I loved them!
in fact before RE remake I gave silent hill 2 a chance on a pc emulator and I loved it. but I do still prefer the modern gameplay from RE2 remake, its not that I think fixed cameras angles are bad but more that I grew up with modern controls and I'm more comfortable using them. specially RE4.
I love this review and the billards puzzle was kinda easy just do to the fact I play pool once a week
Well I tried dead space on your recommendation and loved it.. so I guess I'll trying RE1 after all this time refusing to 😏
Thanks for actually giving one of my game recommendations a shot, that's exactly why I make these retrospectives.
For RE1, just try to go in with an open mind. Classic survival horror was all about resource management, so no fun shooting mechanics. It's enjoyable in its own unique way, but it won't appeal to everybody.
I've seen all your videos. I love your shit and I want other people to love your shit.
Maybe someday the youtube algorithm will accept me into its heart... 😭
Yup still the best. I consider RE4 a masterpiece and enjoy the RE2 and RE3 remakes. I also genuinely enjoyed RE7 but for me nothing compares to REmake.
@Emo Gamer 18 Both way better then Village though 😁
@Emo Gamer 18 haha I always see people praising his “rich character development” but you just pointed out his only two consistent traits xD
@Emo Gamer 18 Wish they would do something to shut up the old fans who are sick of him.....like bring someone else back!!!
@Emo Gamer 18 Right? Hell I’d rather watch Jill go grocery shopping.
WAIT THAT'S ZOMBIE FOREST?! I ALWAYS CALLED HIM MR. JINGLES😅
I'd have to disagree on zero. While it had some clunkier execution than some, overall it was still a pretty decent horror experience and fun game, although it was definitely btfo by remake 1 and 2.
Not bad at all tho, sometimes frustrating
Totally agree with what you said. But despite the fact that Resident Evil Remake is one of the greatest games of its genre, there are still things it could have done and can be done better such as
1/Improving the combat. The combat is clunky and lacking in terms of tactical depth. Resident Evil Remake being a classic survival horror experience needs not handicap itself with poor combat. Better combat encounters not only add to the challenge and tension of the game but also a greater dimension of resource management and decision-making.
2/Making the handgun and survival knife more useful. These weapons don't do much damage and take up precious inventory space resulting in experienced players just stashing them and using the shotgun and the grenade launcher (for Jill) instead.
3/Improving the camera angles. I've seen a lot of praises for the static camera angles used in classic RE games, but I haven't seen anyone pointing out some of their limitations. For starters, the transitions can be jarring and confusing for navigating corridors, movement controls (especially when you need to do some puzzles) and of course, dealing with the enemies. Also for some reason, certain sections of the game such as the road to Lisa's shed feature too many cuts for such a short distance.
4/Improving Chris. Chris got completely shafted in comparison to Jill primarily in terms of story and gameplay experience. It's bizarre that Capcom has stuck to their gun about this issue. Why couldn't RE Remake be like RE2 Classic/Remake where the two main characters are on pretty even footing at the start of the game, and the differences and the gameplay experience between them aren't so marked and obvious. Chris is both harder and more frustrating to play.
5/Improving the little things: allowing players to combine items on pickup, allowing splitting of items, better puzzle mechanics, a slightly larger inventory for Chris and Jill and the ability to drop items to reduce some of the tedious backtracking, upscaling the backgrounds and cinematics, a few checkpoint saves before bosses on lower difficulties to help out new players, touching up some of the story moments like Jill being a complete dummy when Enrico got shot to death Wesker just a few meters away, etc.
Nothing is perfect, even this game. Several of its shortcomings are the inevitable products of old-school designs for better or worse. It can still be even greater with more work put into it.
I love playing as Chris - far more challenging
Yes REmake is the greatest game of all time!
For me the best RE is RE3 Nemesis in terms of the lead protagonist, the setting and the horror atmosphere and of course NEMESIS
My favourite resident evil game of all time is the original resident evil 3, that for me is what survival horror is all about 👍
But this remake was truly astonishing, it sits securely at my second favourite of all time 👍
Plus great content man, you've got yaself a sub
well, Chris also has grenades as an emergency weapon, which lets him blow up zombie heads much easier, as well.
Dude the dialogue in the RE1 Remake should be the LEAST of your worries
if you could skip the door animations itll be perfect.
I just watch his videos cause I like his voice 😂.
Thanks, never thought someone would compliment my voice lol.
@@SyntheticMan Im just glad your an resident evil fan as well. I was hoping for a code veronica remake not an re4 remake. I watched your re3 remake video, & was like finally someone who gets its not a fu##ing remake it was a waste of $60. Should of been $20 DLC.
Love his rants one of my top 5 rn def gonna stay there
i love this game 🧟♂️
You have got to be from Central NY. Probably Syracuse or Oswego. We can’t escape our CNY accents
This is single handedly the scariest RE game. Especially when the crimson heads come into play!
i wouldn’t put it as scary as re7, but for me personally it’s #2. maybe it’s because my first play through of re7 was in vr. scariest shit ever
I got zero instead of the re1 remake on my ps4. Wish I got the latter...
