Bump.

Even worse

>RE4

>make game linear

>add more action

>give zombies weapons

>give zombies ranged weapons

>the game gets received very good

>surely because of the zombies with weapons

>not because the game is third person now

>RE5

>more action

>even more linear

>add more zombies with ranged weapons

>RE6

>MORE ZOMBIES WITH GUNS

>ONLY ZOMBIES WITH GUNS

>MORE LINEAR

How hard can it be to understand that people just want an open area to explore and puzzles and shit to solve?

just add the third person camera and voilà, you made a successful resident evil game.

I like the coop, though i wish it had been splitscreen only or online with a friend, not a npc following you.

And jill looks like shit in revelations.

Revelations was also a linear game. What are you smoking.

>>13930506

You could and do walk around the same area multiple times.

Only the arcade style mode was fun. I can't stand stories in games anymore. That blonde fucked up girl with the exposed wetsuit tits gave me a couple of boners.

I don't know about you but my problem with 5 isn't the linearity, though it is pretty fucking linear let's be real, but rather the pacing. Every single level feels like a climax level which makes the game feel way shorter than it is. 4 had a lot of segments where you cooled down, warmed back up and then were thrust into another really big gauntlet. 5 was too "Hollywood" in the sense that it was ALWAYS EXPLOSIONS ALL THE TIME. Also forced co-op and removing the merchant was a dealbreaker. What the fuck were they thinking.

>What the fuck were they thinking.

>"oh shit Mikami is gone, what the fuck do we do now?"

>"just copy 4 and change a few things while tossing in fanservice"

>"we have to rework the majority of the game with a co-op partner mid-development because the gaijin are complaining"

Should I play this on normal or insane for my first time through?

>>13930973

I just don't see the point in making it mandatory. How hard would it have been to just make a single player campaign and add the option of having a buddy play with you? Was it really that fucking hard for them to make maps that accommodate room for one more character?

>>13930992

Yeah but muh ashley was useless meme.

Playing extermination for ps2 has gotten me hungry for some of these games. I never played 3, maybe I'll give it a go.

>>13930992

I think part of it was having to scrap shit mid development to do it. Dead Space 3 had the option (with co-op only areas) and that came from fucking EA. Once added, Capcom probably kept putting in areas designed around splitting up to justify the feature. It explains all the shitty parts that require two players opening gates and pulling levers. I get fucking with the inventory since either player pausing mid fight would fuck the other up, but they should've just done what you said for having co-op. Or at least find their balls and tell the press to fuck off.

Ashley was legit one of the best escort missions in gaming. You'd think they were playing Dead Rising with all the bitching, and even tard wrangling in that game becomes easy with practice.

>>13930992

That's the reason I prefer the shitmess that RE6 was, to the turbo shitmess that RE5 was. I don't have to take care of Sheva stealing all of my ammo and health, and then running into the chainsaw guy and dying repeatedly. The only way to make Sheva useful was to give her an SMG and then have to feed her bullets every half a second, while the AI in RE6 is useful and doesn't jew all of your supplies. They're both awful games though.

>>13931060

Ashley really is one of those meme complaints that find a strange echo due to how right they sound even when massively exaggerated. Navi's another one.

>>13931073

Honestly, I got RE6 for free and couldn't bring myself to get more than five missions in. There was just something fundamentally broken with the gameplay. 5 was uninspired and kind of tedious but 6 just frustrated me to no end in ways I couldn't quite place.

>>13931659

>There was just something fundamentally broken with the gameplay

6 tricks you into thinking you should play it like 5/4 when in reality you really just wanna abuse all the animation Iframes shittery 6 adds.

>>13929021

I just want a proper sequel to RE4. Why can't Capcom do anything right anymore?

>>13929021

Survival horror a shit. Action horror is where it's at.

Rev 2 > Rev 1

>>13931714

You mean like dodges and such? It's true I never really tried to exploit them at length.

>>13931735

>Action horror

Doesn't exist. It can't be horror and action packed

>Survival horror a shit

You are clearly underage
