>>14367657

That is some stellar logic you got there.

>no suplexing zombies

<nuRE7 DLC's come out

<First one you are Chris punching zombies

<Second one is an old guy punching zombies

<they are praised for being able to punch zombies so badass

and that was the moment i stopped taking seriously nuRE fans

Wich is the best version of code veronica?

I only played the original dreamcast version way back when it came out.

>>14367630

>own 3 different versions of RE1 on N64

HA! RE1 was never on that system, larper.

>>14368820

Perhaps he meant RE2.

>>14368820

OP btfo :^)

>>14368718

Outside of the whole CV vs CVX thing, CVX HD>GC>DC>PS2 (only because muh 480p though)

PS2 version surpisingly emulates easier than he DC or GC one.

>>14368850

>>14368873

Guise, even if it sucks, new models for SFM.

>>14368910

Does wesker still get his ass kicked by alexia in CVX HD though?

>>14368788

Outbreak though. Also zero and CV.

REmake on the GC is perhaps the finest example of a company doing a proper upgrade/refresh to a classic. I know they redid it on PC but that came first and blew me away. Updated graphics while still keeping the atmosphere and asthetic of the original just upping it 100x's and only adding small changes that make sense to gameplay (Quick 360/knife-stungun charges/Crimson heads). I hold almost everything up to that standard. 4 was not a RE game to me, even though I like it alot. I just think of it as a sidegame done with a different mindset. 5 was really the end for me, it had gotten so far away from the originals in play and atmosphere and story I just really didn't care anymore, even though 5 wasn't all that bad a game, it was even less RE than 4 was. Don't get me started on 6 and 7.

>>14368991

I agree 100%

>>14368991

RE4 still retained a top tier atmosphere though.

>>14369105

Would you prefer they make actual bestiality porn?

I would

>>14369123

No complaints here either.

>>14367630

>GameCube doesn’t have any horror games.

>what is Eternal Darkness.

>taking the Resident Evil story seriously

It's your own fault really. It was always dumb bullshit.

<baaarg we are da evil capitalists who make evil monsters because we're evil.

>>14367634

shh

>>14367657

Only if you pay for it

>>14369157

I just want a coop game where you have to Enter and Escape The Hive while battling a Giant boss at the end of each level

I actually really liked the first movie, it has a "slick and clean evil laboratory" atmospheric vibe I just can't get enough of.

>>14369123

SFM can be good, but it rarely is.

>>14369704

I liked how he redeemed himself at the end and the Zombie/Refugee wall.

The only good parts of the movie, just nice premises that are well executed.

But I really do want a coop game where you go in all tacticool with gasmasks and kill zombies and mosnters on a fuckhuge underground lab and then have to escape.

>>14367630

RE is loved by autist who love to unlock door

personally love the remakes in hd for PC, and be able to emulate the ones for consoles i never had

but since capcom is a business, they will make anything that fit the normie standards, ergo leaving autist who preached the franchise as a superb product, under the bus

also love the cgi movies too, if im here i have to be at least a bit autist, and re cgi are really on top of deus ex machinas and over the edge situations that are fun to see them develop

till re 5 everything was fun, decreasingly but still fun, best one for me are 4 and veronica

>>14367630

And now for the actual truth not written by a Hardcore Gaming 101 reader.

>2005

>it's been 10 years of survival horror fad

>no one gives a fuck about resident evil anymore

>resident evil 4 is released

>fresh take on a stale genre

>great and uncommon setting

>a few people question the turn to action, those people are laughed at like bashers of Revengeance who complained about muh real metal gear

>>14370719

I blame that more on Japs in general just not getting tactical shit right. Kojima's the only I know that I know of that comes close and I assume that's only because he's a huge westaboo. Actually MG Survive doesn't seem like a bad idea if it's just the base movement and gunplay of MGSV put in a Raccoon City-esque setting.

>>14370835

From what I remember of the time, looking at the gameplay and trailers I fully expected the game to be a shitty action game just banking on the name. Instead I found it to be a competent TPS with horror elements, while actually good, just wasn't what I thought Resident Evil should've been.

>>14369157

How did that go so wrong? No really, how, I've never played it.

Oh! Did that autist responsible for the Kingdom Hearts summaries come back for Resident Evil?

>>14367657

>breaking everything down to sex fantasies

JEW DETECTED

>>14375976

>cuckchanner has shit opinion

Imagine my shock!

>>14371020

Resident Evil is neither zombies or atmosphere, it's strategic inventory management of dwindling supplies. That's the source of anxiety: no one ever flinched at horrible monsters gruesomely killing you, but they did sweat when good ammo was wasted

>>14370719

Operation Raccoon City is not bad at all, powers and bosses are pretty good. It gets a bad name from its incredibly obtuse first level, the tutorial. I can guarantee no more than 3 people on this board have played it, the rest just accept the consensus like good redditors.

>>14369157

>>14375924

Rushed because Capcom decided it shouldn't compete with RE6's release date, same with Revelaitons, but the devs they chose was a cookie cutter studio that only did SOCOM games for Sony, what happened when they had little to no oversight and pretty much added shit from the Live-action Resident Evil movies? a still badly designed Resident Evil SOCOM mod with the last level used is one from the multiplayer, and Leon can take a hundred shotgun blasts to the face till you get the ending, gameplay felt fucking wrong "Triple Threat" shit they touted was pretty much zombies and monsters didn't work and cover-shooting felt wrong and disjointed, melee system is shit, the environment is bland and terrible, Wolf Pack/Delta Team is alright but Echo Six is self-insert facfiction.

>>14379722

>>14379738

Get the fuck back to reddit.

>>14370835

Revengeance was a spin off made by a different team you complete dolt. They aren't even comparable.

>>14367648

>resident evil 6 is the worst because SJW journofags said so!

I never understood this retardation. It's not THAT much different from 4 or 5.

>>14380755

Thats because resident evil is cooler and you know it.

>>14381014

Different is about right. It's up to one's taste, really. I prefer Resident Evil sometimes as it adds parasites, mutating viruses etc to animals and humans or even hybrids. There's something that screams out 'realism' despite how stupid and unrealistic it is, it just werks. Of course, sometimes the monster designs are predictable at times like slapping a huge eyeball on shoulder or back and then give the monster a huge claw. Okay then. I'm indifferent to it, but I really like it when they go wild with the monster like RE5's leeches boss on a tanker ship.

While with Silent Hill, the monsters are more vague and up to the player's imagination to understand what they represent. Truthfully, I don't like SH2's 'inner personal demons' theme they got going on there. I'll rather try to stick closer to the original cult storyline shown in 1-3 and have demons born out of torture & twisted realities from abused girl/god.

>>14380856

Isn't it bad for excessively wonky gameplay and a plot doofy even by RE standards?

>>14369704

I have no love for that movie, but that costume was incredible.

>>14379660

I really really really like this picture friend

Only just got round to playing RE7. Here's how I would fix it:

>More enemy variety besides bugs and molded

>Lucas is the giant boss at the boathouse, not Jack, that way each of the Bakers has two boss fights each

>Flesh out the testing area and the second floor of the old house which feel like straight corridors and not actual levels

>Ethan goes to the sunken boat unimpeded and there is no character switching and you get to keep your inventory, instead the enemies are just much tougher

>The sunken boat is crashed into the old house instead of being it's own worldspace so you get that feeling of seeing it early on and wondering when you can get to it and everything is on the same map

>You get an animal key in the sunken boat that opens more doors to stuff in the main house where you can get the key to the salt mines

>The salt mines are an actual level and not just lots of molded in some tunnels

>Little girl completely removed, the reveal is simply that a bioweapon was found by the Bakers

>Final boss is one malformed monstrosity of all the Bakers conjoined together as a 'family'

I think i'd be happy with this.

>>14367630

nice blog

>>14390107

t. never played the game

>>14395806

To be fair, those were Commie zombies on motorcycles.

>>14394021

That would be nice. I'd also make the Madhouse mode the default difficulty, with more and more challenging stuff added as you unlock harder difficulties. RE7 had a problem with way too much ammo and healing items so that after the Marguerite boss fight the game basically becomes FEAR: No Fun Allowed Edition. Speaking of FEAR, it's funny how Capcom put a writer behind the FEAR expansion packs to RE7 and he just pretty much copypasted the premise from FEAR. By the way, was Madhouse actually locked only for preorderfags with no options for buyfags?

>>14395900

>RE7 had a problem with way too much ammo and healing items so that after the Marguerite boss fight the game basically becomes FEAR: No Fun Allowed Edition.

Yeah, by the end of the game I had multiple full stacks of handgun ammo, a fully loaded burner and machine gun, and I didn't even touch the magnum.

>Speaking of FEAR, it's funny how Capcom put a writer behind the FEAR expansion packs to RE7 and he just pretty much copypasted the premise from FEAR.

The creepy little girl thing is so overdone, and it hit peak cliche when she wants a family, as if the 'otherworldly X just wanted human thing of Y' wasn't done to death.

>By the way, was Madhouse actually locked only for preorderfags with no options for buyfags?

It's available off the bat for people who preordered but anyone else has to unlock it by beating the game.

>>14367648

OP here, actually like bits of RE6's story, like the Chris and Piers thing. I did drop the series until 2016 when Capcom released the Origins collection. After that, I tried 6 and it was fun but janky. Leon and Ada are shit, Jake is unironically great and Chris would've been a fine point to cap off his story and kill him off. Shame 6 and 7 ruin that.

>>14368718

It depends on your preference. A lot of people don't like how Wesker is portrayed in 5 and the original Dreamcast release of CV cuts down on that and has a beautiful scene where the main villain kicks the shit out of Wesker.

Other than that, what the other anon said. CVX HD has improved lighting, PS2 GCN and PS4 are all exactly the same.

>>14368788

If you enjoy the story, the Gun Survivor games (mainly 1 and 4) add some interesting story bits. Outbreak is also fun for this as it expands on 2 and 3 (as does Biohazard 4D Executer).

CODE:Veronica is also good to pick up as it caps of Claire's story and its side game Gaiden (which was the canon side story to CV at one point) is also fun.

Basically, play all the games pre-4. They're great. If you want an actual ending, pick up Umbrella Chronicles and 5. If you want an actual, actual ending, play Lost in Nightmares and REv2, then wait for the Alex Wesker/Natalia thing to get wrapped up.

>>14368820

Meant PS1.

>>14368917

>7 tier SFM models

Claire will look like shit and Sherry will look like the kid from The Shining.

>>14369566

Actually, in classic Resident Evil stories, the zombies were mistakes. The actual monsters, Cerberus, Hunters, Tics, Tyrants, etc. were all made and sold to countries as BOWs to fight in wars and this is shown best in Damnation, They're actually really useful as well, Nemesis would've killed Jill and finished his mission if not for Carlos helping her, and the he survives getting shot by a rail canon after getting his shit kicked in and sprayed with acid multiple times. The t-103 is also really good as it survived getting tossed in lava, and G-Birkin needs to be in the center of a huge explosion to be killed.

Only REv1 does the evil capitalist thing where the main villain causes bio terror to make the world realize they need his shitty company to prevent bio terror.

That's one. Meanwhile, the PS2 had SH2-4, SIREN 1 and 2, the Fatal Frame games, Resident Evil Outbreak 1 and 2, Dead Aim, Rule of Rose and full PS1 backwards compatibility

>>14413877

>m-muh re4

Piss off

Gameplay wise 6 is a shit ton better than 5. At least you have better control over your character. 4 & 5 character control/movement was fucking retarded. 6 fixed it. Games still suck though.

>>14413916

6 would be better if it had the same crunchy guns as 5 and if it had tighter movement.

Shame 7 killed any chance of 6's gameplay to get developed further, as I feel like another game would've fixed most of the issues people had.

>>14415142

I have the pdf downloaded, but haven't been bored enough to read it like Archives or the art books.

Weren't the zombies accidents though, while the villagers in 4, and the human BOWs in 5 and (most of) 6 all intentional?

>>14415686

Luigi's Mansion is unironically my favourite Mario and my favourite spook game, so you got me there.

Alone in the Dark was my favorite game as a kid. Then RE came out and it was even better. And just when you thought it couldn't get better, out came Dino Crisis. Then cam e the crappy RE sequels. And out of the darkness came Nocturne and blew all the previous games right the fuck out of the water. Too bad they never made an official sequel even though the Blair Witch game was pretty good.

>>14415202

The zombies were humans that failed to become Tyrants. The goal was to make more Tyrants and zombies were just failures that had to be disposed of, because they weren't nearly as useful, but were also super dangerous to staff.

The villagers in 4 were Saddler's personal army and they were intentional. The same went for the Africans in 5 as Wesker needed footsoldiers that weren't mindless, but also wouldn't betray him. In 6, they were just part of a terrorist attack. I don't really remember the point behind 6 though. I kinda remember some guy wanting Ada and then he dies after killing a bunch of chinks. I've yet to play 7 as I'm waiting for a complete edition to show up someday. From what I understand, the enemies are largely unintentional. It was the single bow that escaped that converted them all, and she's really the only reason they exist. Luckily, she never had any real plans to escape the swamp or else she could have caused a lot of damage.

In CV, they were intentional on the island as Wesker was attacking and needed to weaken Alexander's defenses. They were unintentional in Antarctica iirc. An Outbreak had occurred and none of the staff were expected to be turned. It's been years, so I may be wrong on that. In 2 and 3, they were completely unintentional. Birkins released the virus without realizing it and the rats spread it throughout Racoon City. In 1 and 0, Marcus's ghost returned to exact revenge on Umbrella. The Queen Leach made a copy of him at the time of his death, so it isn't technically Marcus. I'm curious if it was even aware that it was creating zombies whenever it killed? It could also be that it didn't care. It was shown that biohazards had been escaping into the mountains for a while after the initial outbreak. I doubt all of them were destroyed, so I wonder if there are more instances of Baker families out there?

>>14402850

What a piece of crap this is. Half of it doesn't even make sense and he puts in all these cheesy joke lines but when he did the Jill and Barry find Forrest scene, he doesn't even put the best line in the game "JUST TAKE A LOOK AT DIS"

>>14416586

>aiming with controller.webm

>>14418430

>The other games shouldn't even be called Resident Evil.

Yet you have RE7 on that list of yours

>>14418430

RE 6 > RE 5 > RE 3 > RE 2 > Veronica > RE 1 > Outbreak > Revelations > RE 0 > RE 4

They're all pretty good. RE7 is awful.

>>14420032

and some of its products are not FDA approved for human consumption

>>14420009

I'm surprised they made RE7 a main entry. They could have made it a spin-off or have it take place in the RE universe. Like Dino Crisis.

>>14419764

It's at the first position possible, which is after the classic games.

What are you talking about?

>>14420109

They could have called it Resident Evil: Biohazard and start another spinoff series, then make RE7 one last sendoff for the main crew and REv3 a sendoff for those leftover and Natalia.

>>14420494

> not the same decade

> not the same console

> not the same graphical engine

> not the same story line.

It's a good game, hence why I place it at #1 position (after the original games), but it's just not a classic.

>>14422327

Why are copies from paintings never considered as good as the original?

Why are copies from brand name articles never considered as good as the original?

Why are copies from expensive jewelry not as good as the original?

That's you right now. I don't know, should have payed more attention in your non-STEM classes maybe?

>>14422344

You're just saying "it's not as good because it's new" over and over. Get to the point.

>>14422344

>Implying REmake is a copy

Nice meme spacing you massive faggot.

>>14422586

It is. When you re-make something, you copy it.

>>14422593

Your grasp of the English language is very poor. It's not a duplicate or reproduction of Resident Evil 1 like you seem to be implying.

>>14422607

Copying something or someone usually leads to an approximation of that something or someone.

>>14369704

>It was also really cool how much detail went into Nemesis in the later film except how the fight with him was so lame.

I actually really enjoyed the first 15 minutes of that movie. Zombie stories that take place AS things are going to hell rather than AFTER it's happened are really cool.

Nemesis is just generally neat. Shame what happened to the STARS though.

>>14367630

You will never understand the beauty of Resident Evil.

>>14424973

Wasnt she a lesbian in those?

The thing i will forever remenber from those novels is claire being constantly worried about being raped.

>>14425022

They werent bad, its just that inserted little things like that were hilarius.

>>14425029

With that, you could get away with shit easier. Everytime someone reports you, both the news and people would think it's a lie.

>>14424973

>>14427763

RE5 is definitely better than 7 mostly because of the coop

>>14427860

1) Everything is better with friends even shitty games. The proper way to judge a co-op game without bias is with strangers.

2) Co-op games a very limited half-life. So unless you bug one of your friends to play it you can't experience co-op since no one is playing it online.

>>14425029

There's an actual robotics company out their called Cyberdyne Systems named after the one that creates Terminator's Skynet program.

>>14427951

I'd rather play a shit game with friends than a boring walking sim tbqh

>>14428043

It's still better than the Hollywood fuckery that was Resident Evil 4.

What, you don't like B-movie schlock?

>>14430004

I don't like it when big company executives get together and decide to turn a well loved franchise into an Arnold Schwarzenegger, US vs The Rest type bullshit.

>>14430004

global horror, as its name suggests, means that horror is something that the character is surrounded by as opposed to the Hollywood, Americanized version of horror that concentrates on one big villain like stupid RE4.

>>14431507

> Re 1 : Mysterious Virus on the outskirts of Racoon City

> Re 2 : Racoon City, a city in the USA overthrown by zombies

> Re 3 (where the fuckery kind of originated but was still contained) : a new Tyrant prototype

Re 4 : faggot Leon in some homosexual town in Spain or Latin America that has literally nothing to do with anything, collecting gold dropped by vampires while chit-chatting on the radio with a midget incest villain.

The game was the result of executives meeting up and deciding they wanted to do a cool action game.

It's shit and I don't care if you read on Kotaku that it was the best Resident and it was 10,5/10.

>>14431507

No, I don't like the intellectual equivalent of fast food in video game form, you're right about that if anything.

>>14431559

Wait, what's wrong with Leon apart from the cornball delivery? He was a reused protagonist.

>kotaku

Like anyone reads that here, faggot.

>>14431564

You know, you don't have to waste posts like this.

>>14431825

>Clock Tower

How did that feed into it?

>>14439864

The issue with Leon is that he doesn't act like the Leon we saw in 2 and 3 (and if you want, Gaiden), and later on, the CG movies, 6 and Darkside would give him a personality more in line with what we saw in earlier games.

RE4's Leon sticks out like a sore thumb given how different he is.

You can reuse a protagonist, but that doesn't mean you're saved from criticism. RE7 would go on to reuse Chris and his depiction caused a huge shitstorm and an obvious backpedal on his character (back to where it was, rather than have Chris 'I'm Evil Now' Redfield)

Pretty sure he got a letter from a lawyer. I wouldn't know about him being included.

>Tfw RE7 is a good game and technically its >mansion with scorpion key level bullshit>woods>run down industrial area>lab>boss excecution is faithful to the formula but its themes don't quite match.

Don't get me wrong Jack was a interesting RE character. His 'please ethan, free my family' bit was genuinely touching. I just miss the 'not quite american' racoon city where everything was designed by a madman and shits bananas but just action horror enough.

>>14442191

I still think there is more that can be made with racoon city.

For example, how about playing an RPD officer as shit is going south and endgame is the last stand of the police and umbrella mercs we saw in the intro of RE3?

There we could see actual racoon city and not just the alleways.

Bonus points if there is radio chatter between cops, you can help civilians and stuff like that.

>>14442216

>No game set during RE2/3 where you are part of a team of soldiers right out of predator/aliens struggling to contain each small rust belt tier mountain town in the arklay forests.

>>14442364

I was thinking more along the lines of dead rising, but sure.

also,those RE modded maps are pretty great.

>>14442391

I'm surprised that they play just like the RE games. In that you do the same stuff to progress. Same goes for the Silent Hill Custom Campaign.

>>14442494

Oh shit, the silent hill ones i havent tried.

What i really like about those maps is the detail they go into with the limitations they have.

>>14442191

RE7 was better than the RE5-6 'don't deserve to be called RE' fuckery, but it's still just a weird mix of Silent Hills Demo (heavily, heavily influenced obviously) and classic RE plus Chainsaw Massacre movie.

When I saw the trailer with the police car sirens I genuinely thought that they would move to the city after defeating Dad the first time.

That would have made it great.

I actually liked the RE7 demo better than the game itself and the DLC's were better too, weird.

>>14442216

Basically, they should just do a single-player campaign of Resident Evil Outbreak.

That's the last interesting thing I see that could be done with Racoon City.

Claire : been done.

Leon : been done.

Chris : went to Europe before virus spread to Racoon City.

Barry, Jill : same.

The other cops : get killed.

For me, the most interesting part is the fate of the civilians.

And, honestly no one wants to play a civilian that dies for an ending.

Which brings me back to my first point : 'RE Outbreak'-style solo game.

>>14442263

>>14442360

episodic-games are an absolute cancer and everything that is wrong with gaming.

So, instead of buying one game you guys would rather buy 10 DLC's repackaged as 'episodes'. Really?

RE5 is fucking disgusting. Nothing heightens the tension during an encounter with a dangerous and frightening monster goofy animal in a horror game Gears of War clone than a shoehorned tagalong kaffir whore making a quip or a genius observation like "Gee, ain't he a big guy? He must have some kind of weak point on him!"

Fortunately for me, I made a fan fiction where Sheva Alomar is confirmed killed by Chris Redfield, who became evil when he joined Umbrella at the end of RE7. I've become so attached to it that I don't consider the Not A Hero DLC to be canon (it was really just a movie that Chris and Lucas, who are working together for Wesker on his secret island facility off the coast of Malibu, decided to shoot in Lousiana so Lucas could fake his death but some cajun swamp yokel accosted them and demanded to be in their movie.)

>implying RE5 isn't the worst game in the series

>>14449965

that honor belongs to 6

>>14450213

Not at all. 6 is pretty good.

>>14449965

I wouldn't say any mainline title is the worst. That includes CV and 0.

Seriously, there are games like ORC, Confidential Report 1-4, Umbrella Corps, the Chronicles games, Revelations 1, and you go around saying something like 5 is the worst? It has it's issues, yeah, but it's not completely broken (ORC, Corps) or shits on the story and characters (Chronicles and REv1)

But if we're only going by mainline titles, 5 still isn't the worst. Half of 6 is complete garbage, that being the Leon and Ada half. Chris and Jake are okay though, if it was just them, the game would be perfect.

7 isn't that good either, as on release it only had the main campaign and a gimped Arrange Mode, and a DLC that took a year to come out. The main campaign wasn't even that good, it was half shit (Guest House, Lucas House, Boat, Mines), and the other half, the "Return to RE", was linear as fuck and rips off RE1.

4 also isn't that great. Weakest Mercs by far, including Battle Games and RE3 Mercs. The side campaigns about Ada aren't as good as the Survivor campaigns of 2, and the main campaign drags on for 10 hours too long and is mediocre past the village.

We already know the issues with CV and 0. Partner system is terrible, the backtrack is bad (but in CV, major backtracking only occurs if you're shit at the game and not remembering the fire extinguisher isn't 'game breaking'), the hookshot is godawful, Steve is bad (I liked him).

0 is mediocre classic RE, CV is merely good classic RE.

What are the issues with 5? There's Sheva, but you just have to be good with item management or have a friend. 5 definitely has the best Mercs (for the action games) and the tightest side campaigns, and I'd argue it's the hardest game in the series on Professional.

>>14449965

Wait, theres people that believe code veronica and zero are bad games?

>>14451708

>he seems to be talking about mainline

>in the series

also, chronicles 1 is bad because it's a mediocre light gun game in a series of generally enjoyable games, chronicles 2 is bad because of the "immersive" screen wobbling it adds, effectively turning it into a cerebral palsy simulator

then again I might have a bias against it since I only had a wiimote with no sort of proper gun attachment so it fucked up my wrists

>>14451708

Majority of my post was comparing 5 to mainline titles, there was just a bit at the start where I said there are a lot of RE games that are worse.

>>14451476

Yes, mainly because they're too hard. The only good criticism is how bad the hookshot is in 0.

I said 'That includes CV and 0' because sometimes they aren't counted as mainline.

>>14450303

>Typical Hotline Miami 2 custom level.jpg

>>14452556

>Yes, mainly because they're too hard

What a bunch of cunts then.

They have their flaws, but they are not bad games at all.

>>14454872

Well, I'd say 0 had some definite issues, such as the poorly done partner system which artificially extends what would've been a much shorter game, the hookshot wastes way too much time on a first playthrough, and the bosses are all generic big bug monsters.

CV on the other hand has much less issues. The only issues really are that it doesn't carry over new mechanics from RE3. Everything else is either an issue because you find a character annoying, you think the story's dumb, or the backtracking is bad (and the only bad backtracking occurs if you fuck up)

>>14451476

>Wait, theres people that believe code veronica and zero are bad games?

Yes this is/was actually the mainstream view on these games and for that you have to see these game in the context of the time.

Resident Evil was a big update on the game design that was pioneered with Alone in the Dark and started the Survival Horror craze on the PS1, also despite people making fun of how it looks today it had great 3D graphics for its time.

Then came Resident Evil 2 and not only was it an update to Resident Evil 1 on all fronts, but also blew peoples heads away with its Racoon City scenario.

Afterwards came Resident Evil 3 Nemesis, which had a nice gimmick with Nemesis hunting you through the game but it was overall just more of the same you had with Resident Evil 2.

By the time Code Veronica came out Resident Evil failed to keep up in the graphical department and other 3D games became much smother to control, also it started the whole Wesker Matrix bullshit. People were put off to say the least.

At the same time Capcom started to throw out the Light Gun Shooters and the Game Boy game: Gaiden, Survivor 1&2 and Dead Aim all weren't things that the Survival Horror fans of Resident Evil wanted.

Also there was the whole Resident Evil Outbreak shtick, which was at a time when good PC Online gaming was at its heyday and everyone was laughing at online console gaming. It failed spectacularly.

Then the Resident Evil Remake came out and it had two problems, it was good and a remake. So Resident Evil Fans were just left wondering why Capom can't make a new good Resident Evil that continues the Story that was abandoned after Resident Evil 3.

It was followed by Resident Evil 0, which was a prequel at a time when people were already pissed that most movies were just prequels or remakes. It also looked and played outdated, compared to the other blockbuster games that came out at the time.

So overall many Resident Evil fans of the first hour and the mainstream just consider the six years between Resident Evil 3 and Resident Evil 4 as a terrible time when the franchise was in the shitter. And depending on if they liked the new game design that came with Resident Evil 4, it may have never left the shitter.

>>14463833

I remember playing code veronica on the dreamcast when it came out and thinkings it was a pretty great game, althought for me at that time 3 was still the best game because sweet controls.

Then again, where im from resident evil was one of the most popular game series until 4 and noone had a gamecube.

>>14463833

Resident Evil 0, even by today's standard, is a beautiful game. It was way, way ahead of its time in terms of graphics.

Just as Resident Evil 1. Only 16 year olds on /v/apors would disagree.

>>14457712

I think there are at least two more, plus something about the main antagonist of Gun Survivor. We may have to hunt through archives for the rest, however.

Did 7 make canon that the people from outbreak survive or is the reporter just a reference for fun?

>>14463833

none of that is correct though

the reason people hate CV is probably because they think it's when RE jumped the gun and became about wacky superpowered freaks, which is relatively reasonable, and the reason people hate 0 is because it was a lazily designed game

the new enemies in RE0? an ape. a big frog. a big scorpion. a big earwig. a big centipede. bats. a big bat. a man, but made of leeches. a bigger man, made of bigger leeches. even the outbreak introduced better enemies and it barely differed in design process

not to mention the horrid AI, the horrid inventory system, and the story that was full of plotholes and bits that conflicted directly with the rest of the RE stories

>>14466270

>6 is a steaming pile of garbage

>re0 wasn't bad

also I fucked up and said chronicles, meant to say umbrella corps, which is reasonable considering they're both bad games

>>14466421

outbreak is 100% canon, it's just a matter of what happened and who survived what

official RE canon is decided by two things: whether capcom themselves are involved, and whether or not they say it's canon

gaiden is an outlier since capcom has said nothing of it but it's most likely assumed non-canon

>>14466479

>outbreak is 100% canon, it's just a matter of what happened and who survived what

I know its cannon, what i mean is the protagonists survived.

Theres a news article in 7 written by the reporter woman from outbreak.

Hence why I wrote about the "Wesker Matrix" bullshit. You didn't read that?

>>14466764

>Isn't that what Outbreak 1 and 2 tried to do?

The problem with the Racoon city scenario is that Capcom failed to really take advantage of it when it was hot shit and later attempts to revisit it came off as Capcom milking the franchise.

>>14468888

not from the point of view of graphics, I'm pretty sure they're using the same engine.

>>14469865

He is right about it being inferior to REmake though.

>>14468888 (heil'd)

Checking these dubs.

>Hence why I wrote about the "Wesker Matrix" bullshit. You didn't read that?

I liked the T-Veronica Virus but this was also a valid point. However the thing I like the most about CV is the gameplay itself.

>The problem with the Racoon city scenario is that Capcom failed to really take advantage of it when it was hot shit and later attempts to revisit it came off as Capcom milking the franchise.

This is also true, and Capcom is too stupid to take advantage of the people who would buy a redone Outbreak in a heartbeat just for the stable online infrastructure. At least we can still play it with Jap consoles and emulators.

>>14470132

G was never sentient. His human memories did however influence his actions at some instances including seeking out his daughter as a related vessel he impregnate. However everything else that comes with that is instinct, he was mindless for all intents and purposes. Like other powerful BOWs he was much more intelligent.

>expecting it to follow the whole game rather than be fun

You haven't given me a single reason for why the game itself is bad.

>>14471435

>You haven't given me a single reason for why the game itself is bad.

All the cutscenes and VAs are bad, and DC Douglas was so bad he became retroactively good (and is now the David Hayter of the series).

Every retelling is terrible, and RE3 in particular is shit, cutting out 85% of the game. It would've been better if they never made it.

The extra Wesker chapters are shit and are filler with the exception of the final Wesker chapter from Umbrella's End and maybe the Rebirth chapter.

The extra Ada chapter is probably the only thing in the whole game I'd call good, and even then it's there to explain 4's fuckups.

The main villain, that Russian guy, is fucking retarded. And before you say 'RE was always about shit like that', fuck off. RE was pseudo-science grounded in semi-realism. If CV didn't exist, we could say pseudo-science grounded in full realism for the first half of the series (pre-4 half). Umbrella Chronicles shows up and tosses in this big Russian guy with his Tyrants that are much better than Wesker's shitty t-002, and he has 12 clones that all get off on pain.

It's fucking dumb, and overcomplicates the series.

The gameplay is bland. Everytime I play it, it's boring. The hits don't crunch, nothing is satisfying, and I'm not driven by the terrible retellings or original story to continue. Same for Darkside, but at least it had semi-decent looking CGs.

So, in short, the only good part of Umbrella Chronicles, is one extra chapter about the worst character in the series, and even then, only the original story is good, the gameplay is fucking horrendous

>>14472565

>If you're gonna be retarded and ruin a whole series, go full retard til it wraps around into good again.

>>14466479

RE0's inventory is some of the worst shit. Ditched the item boxes, and you can potentially leave a key item on the other end of the mansion, it made the train sequence interesting, but when I got to the main mansion I was still looking for the damned item box because holy shit that's a chore. I just figured the drop items bit was so you could clear inventory space for key items if you showed up overprepared.

NOPE.

On the other hand you had the most inventory slots in any game, so I guess that was supposed to even it out, but the key item on the other end of the map shit was fucked, and some items took up more then one slot.

>>14475236

You're supposed to use the rooms with the typewriters as your item box. There's a reason why the safe room music plays in those rooms. Granted it totally ruins the point of dropping an item anywhere you want.

>>14475236

honest to god if the game had just kept the tight cramped space gimmick like on the train or made the train a lot longer, it would've been so good

but no

they had to fuck that all up by making it like RE1 again with a large mansion or mansion-like building

>>14476385

THIS

>>14472565

This all sounds cool, but I think the horror game aspect should switch over to being this monstrosity. Things like how human enemies and NPCs (including civilians) react to your presence, how even Umbrella (or whoever made you) treating you like a thing instead of a person (excepting maybe your teammates or direct makers), and the disturbing noises you make in combat. Boons could feed into it, like creepy-looking nightvision, being able to smell different emotions (with "fear" practically clouding the target once you show up), or shredding people apart with your hideous strength. If you had a family before this process, well, that's gonna be milked for all its worth. Welcome to the Post-Modern Prometheus, Resident Evil style!

>>14450213

No,that belongs to 7

>>14480130

7 isnt a shit game, like 6 was, at least 7 is solid in what it tries to do.

>>14480935

7 is flawed but a step in the right direction, the flaws being the lack of quantity and variety of enemies, and it's story pacing is similar to that cinematic bullshit FPSes and TPSes are doing these days. Oh and no hot girls.

6 tries to please everyone but only the guys love mercenaries or who need their caaaaaaaaaarrrrrrzzzzy fix love it. And there are hot girls but is it just me but does helena look a bit off?

>>14481002

The only redeeming thing of 6 is sherry being back and being a super cute girl, i couldnt care about any others in there, specially not that slut ada.

I played it co-op with my cousin, whom i have been playing RE with since the PSX days, and we found it so boring we couldnt even finnish the game, the game being a run and shoot simulator at that, if you fail at making couch co-op with shooting fun you have failed as a game in my book.

>>14480973

It's subject to change, I was joking.

Point is I have no idea how to end that shit, but it either involves an ending where you're seen regenerating ominously or something cliched like that, or you become an unstoppable menace that can't be killed period.

I don't know how to end that without either underhyping it or overhyping it. You either get nuked and survive, or get nuked and don't, and the second one doesn't reward the player for going balls to the wall evil. It could be an ending where they create something that can't be stopped and THAT exposes them, but the world has an uncontainable threat that goes straight through armies or defense systems with no sign of stopping.

You can bet your ass that it's going to be a non-canon ending either way. Godzilla is the joke ending.

>>14485643

>>14481660

>>14480826

I dunno what y'all are talking about but it reminds me of a dream I had where I picked a game up from a store called "resident evil mountain 5"

it was essentially a game where you played as nemesis and did all sorts of nemesis shit but I distinctly remember a part where I was surfing on the underside of a car through the streets of raccoon to go fight a giant birkin so make of that what you will I guess

>>14485643

Aaah, the iterative process of Anon strikes again.

http://residentevil.wikia.com/wiki/Cleaner You might be interested in this B.O.W., since what you (we?) want to make is essentially from the POV of a greatly superior (and non-disposable) one.

>T-X Frankenstein

Ha, you got it. For extra points, maybe your home base is located in the Arctic Circle out of a massive icebreaker-type ship (with VTOL pad). Maybe you could run into a distaff "Bride" late(r) in the story. Perhaps she is meant to replace us given our increasingly free will.

>What "we" are

From the look of things, we might want to make our Monster a product of the C-Virus, or rather a unique custom job using the C-Virus as a base, and traits from T spliced in. This allows for the intelligence and controlled mutation seen in the former while retaining the strength and regenerative ability found in Tyrants. That our Monster can transform back into a humanoid is a major step forward in-setting (go away, Simmons, you couldn't control that at all). If someone could get a hold of TBoE's author(s) for consultation, that'd be great.

How expressive should we be? Obviously we can't speak, no more than one syllable at most (RUN should come up often in Evil playthroughs, GO in Good ones), but I think we should know military handsigns at the very least (if only as a piece in the puzzle of who we were). No need to go full Koko the Gorilla. Though I'm picturing T-X's first use of the "OK" sign coupled with a toothy rictus as a moment of minorly character arc-important comic relief, your team thinking you're about to go on a tantrum when asked "Do you feel anything?" after a new stabilizing injection. I don't think we should be able to write whole reports a la Bitores Mendez either, but again can draw symbols and make simple (later multisyllabic) words in block capitals (with the words used changing depending on the path taken) with diamondtip stylus on a black slate (paper and pen having proved useless in our vice-like grip).

>profit

Ah, so you'd rather have a typical corporate villain than the would-be supermen and visionaries of the other games. I can respect that. This said, a Resident Evil game without madmen is barely a Resident Evil game at all. So let's make at least a few of them our targets, either in the pay of the Company's rivals, more bioterrorists who stole the Company's assets, and perhaps a would-be superman who says some hauntingly impactful lines about what we serve and who we are. Perhaps the CEO has one or more of his own ex-Umbrella madmen on payroll. Our dear Sanguina Corazon might just be one of them, if reformed/trying to atone, and how we react to that information is a significant divergent choice.

It would be rather nice for the final boss to indeed be the head of the Company, having survived his own madman's expected betrayal, torn them to shreds for it in his new body, and reflecting ruefully to us that it's a pity he can't attend board meetings in person anymore. This after a good minute of listening to him on a (audio-only) conference call with "our key investors" assuring them with only a mild flange to his voice that the "latest product" has exceeded expectations in "first-run testing." He would look like a more monstrous version of himself by that point (even wearing his tattered business suit still), but would devolve over the course of the fight until he resembles a funhouse mirror version of us. Much of his battle chatter would revolve around the massive amounts of dosh he'll make once he's read Doctor Anon's data (which you destroy halfway through), and how plastic surgery for his vanity will be easy to afford (if needed, he'll arrange that his own DNA can used to reverse-engineer the virus). He only loses it once your team's cracker notes through speakers that the Company's assets have been liquidated and his own bank account frozen.

>autism

You're on 8chan, it's to be expected.

>>14486954

http://residentevil.wikia.com/wiki/Cameron Oh yeah, this could be one of our madmen. Capture or successful sampling (meaning you can't go all-out) means some potential weird enemies or even a boss rush of different past B.O.W.s later on.

>>14486954

I think in regards to the player character Tyrant, he should still have a stoic behavior that fits past characterizations while showing intelligence. Having the guy smile is a no-go since it'd be awkward with a mouth full exposed teeth or variable model, rage of having a loved one hurt is within that range, hand signals are good, but you have to use it sparingly, he might even laugh if it's not uproarious. Like a dude on your team will make a joke at someone's expense in the observation room across from them and he'd have a subdued "heh heh heh" thing going since he has super-senses, it'd creep them out at first, they'd think it was a random response that lined up instead of what it was. It'd eventually build up to the point that he has more pronounced responses, might even have short internal monolouges in the form of examination texts.

Basically you need to have the player actually controlling a Tyrant in personality in order for this to jive.

Also >>14487099

You definately run through the gamut of B.O.W.s, because my idea for mutation upgrades is that you get multiple samples from other B.O.W.s to research body part additions, getting an extra heart grafted, etc. If I had permission, you'd eventually have secret missions where you fight the mainline tyrant (Prototype, Lisa, Nemesis, Birkin etc) and get their shit too, which would be available ahead of time in weaker forms. (A restraint suit like Nemesis that makes capturing easier, weapons, tentacles, multi-arms)

For gameplay i'd do a behind the back fighter ala Anarchy Reigns or Godhand, but alter it so it's not as fast and is designed around slower pursuing type gameplay, you'd be able to have all sorts of movement depending on the parts you use. As for Frankenstein's identity he'd be a scientist or homeless man kidnapped off the street named Frank Graves. because fuck you that's a goddamned Resident Evil name.

RE6 should have just been a Leon game.

>nothing on the Company head

…Does that mean approval or "do not speak of this again"? Oh well, nothing for it. Name, Martin Killinger, callsign CROESUS. He's the one who gave our monster the codename "T-X Frankenstein," and as such is in on "the joke." I've yet to decide why he knows this, or what history your past self may have had with him, but it's a fair wager that we had our memories fragmented to hide something. He is watchful of his Company's bioengineering department and Frank as a prototype in testing. He becomes much more interested in our monster as the number of reports on our apparent intelligence mounts. This also gets the attention of his pet madman, Doctor Jonah Pierce, callsign WALDMAN, who happily informs you (in the same way you might talk to your dog) that your "successful" genes hold the key to a viral breakthrough in the science of bioweaponry…kaffkaff, and medicine, of course. Why, he might even unlock the secret of controllable and sapient super soldiers from it, and battlefield medicine will become a thing of the past! However, Killinger is rather tight on the purse strings, and has more than once slighted the "good" Doctor on the pace of his slow results and failures. This will not stand, and is why he eventually tries out his final product on the Company head.

Only, he's not poor besotted Excella Gionne, and instead of turning into an obedient monster or a gibbering mass of flesh…Killinger just gets bigger, uglier, with a calcified hide replacing much of his skin, and a new capacity to reshape his limbs into weapons. Pierce is promptly skewered with one of these weapons as a "disciplinary action," but informed with all sincerity that his family will be fully compensated as thanks. I imagine the guy remaining calm during the first leg of the boss fight, getting increasingly testy as you damage him and destroy equipment, before finally losing his cool entirely once it's clear his Company is finished. Past that point, his mutations get increasingly monstrous and uncontrollable, while his vocabulary declines rapidly (and hammily), until he's more hideous than you and even less articulate.

>model trouble

Hadn't thought of that, but yeah, it's tough to do human expressions with a mug like that.

>internal monologue

I like that idea, but I'd like to expand that a little. Have sequences after plot-important missions where you think about what happened, putting emphasis (read:camera and sound) on particular phrases and actions. Some things might remind you of your hazy past, and you get muffled flashbacks that get clearer the more "pieces" you find. Plenty of strangers in those, but enough familiar faces and voices to give the mutant the notion that…he was once someone else. That there was a different life before the existence he suffers now. Things like uncovering a memory of reaching out to a loved one (possibly after yanking one of your human sidekicks out of harm's way (which could be excused as getting them out of your way) with your more human arm), and remembering with sudden clarity that the arm involved lacked mottling, cancerous growths, and even claws. Naturally, this moment is in first person, and the human arm fades over your present appendage. If this happens in the middle of a mission, a bullet or biting mouth will easily bring you out of your reverie, but if it happens afterward, you'll just be left with the thought, and the team will wonder why you keep staring at your claws (Bleeding Heart wonders aloud why you look "lost," while the others half-heartedly chide her for it; they don't know what to make of it either beyond maybe a "glitch").

>ugly friendly giant

Oh hell no. Stretching the metaphor a little, handsigns and other subtler things are to T-X Frankenstein's mind as a dog's tail is to how it feels. I'd like to keep the "OK sign," but in a much less humorous and more emotional context; in this case, it would be the equivalent of said dog sitting down to watch you with the tail swaying a little instead of going for your throat. You sure as hell can't pet the beast (he'll curl his lip if you even reach in that direction), but you can pass by if you want. Up until the midpoint, every mission start and finish should be treated by your teammates like very carefully disarming a bomb: tense, nerve-wracking, and with the knowledge that a single misstep could cost everyone nearby their lives.

>>14508292

Change in direction splintered the fanbase and people working on it dont know what the fuck to do with the series now, atleast 7 isnt a shitshow.

Of course, but leon being lovestruck by her its great.

I just hope Capcom reboots the franchise at this point, restarting from CV.

They could reintroduce old ideas and concepts they ditched, like DASH and Elza, as well as work Gaiden and 4D Executer into the canon.

I know that will never happen because of the 4 cocksucking, but a man can dream

>>14508335

Jake and Chris are better campaigns. Meme it up with 'muh Gears of Evil' and whatnot, but at least they're consistent and play well for what they are. They also have the best stories in 6 going for them

>>14508731

Theres no need to reboot, just move away from the same cast as always and introduce new stories, i do think that umbrella as a PMC has potential for intereting things to happen, the saem with the fact that apparently bio-terrorism keeps scalating in the world.

I want a reboot with the original cast and starting from CV though.

4 is the reason for the sorry state the series is in, and the Chronicles games made everything worse.

Umbrella already sold bioweapons to armies and them being a PMC makes no sense in 7 and fucks the timeline hard when you think about it for a second, and them being a PMC in 1998 blows their cover (they did have soldiers, but they were hired mercs)

And the games already played with the idea of escalating bio-terror, culminating in the CG films, the plot of 4 and 5, and all of 6.

>and them being a PMC makes no sense

It does though.

Umbrella fell for economical reasons, not because they were banned or anything like that.

The proper way of proceeding is to grab their remaining assets and turn into something else, with umbrella already having full on paramilitary groups, facilities and war material, it makes sense for them to become a PMC while also hiding their shady shit.

They fell because everybody knew what they did and even Wesker canonically testified against them in court.

>The proper way of proceeding is to grab their remaining assets and turn into something else

You could do that with the Nazis because that was the '40s. You couldn't do that in '03.

>with umbrella already having full on paramilitary groups, facilities and war material, it makes sense for them to become a PMC while also hiding their shady shit.

Nobody would hire them because it'd make them immediately look like the badguys. By 2003, everybody knew what Umbrella did. It's why Neo Umbrella was scary for civilians in RE6

It's barely even a RE game in my book.

http://residentevil.wikia.com/wiki/Rival_company Hey, you still here? I found this article. Perhaps we can finally cover Umbrella's mysterious rival. Also, what do you want to do with this idea in the present?

What the fuck is this

I was in stitches laughing at his daddy issues. Code Veronica's story is so bad, it's like the story equivalent of RE1's voice acting.

>>14525112

she was ready to strip naked right then and there for her terrasave boss until he started spilling the beans about how he wanted to be just like senpai and commit extreme bioterrorisms for no good reason

>>14520983

Well, you could write a novel or two.

>>14525130

Yeah but he didnt want to bang her, unlike steve.

I dont get why people imply claire is a lesbian when, after ashley, shes the female harater that has shown more interest in dudes.

Have you the skills and/or team to do so? I'm just saying, m8, reach and grasp.
