Yeah I agree, I actually think that when they are remade (RE5/6) they will actually be looked up on more favourably then when they were released. They are fine games, just maybe not what people wanted back then.
The racial RE5 issues are ridiculous, always were. Hopefully Capcom ignore it all and just do their own thing in their own Japanese way.
Yeah I get that. Probably just my obsession with wanting full circle things lol But I have also really enjoyed the first person REs, possibly because they have been accompanied by the usual 3rd person RE games with the Remakes.
