So, the Resident Evil Purists are pretty much dead, right?


Recommended Posts

RE2 remake came out, its based on RE4's gameplay, its more action-packed.

 

Didn't hear a peep from the RE fans who demand fixed-camera. In fact, a lot of them seem to be happy about this RE2.

 

RE purists are dead.:blessed:Thank god, I always knew they were just RE4-haters trying to find a cover for their bitterness.

LOL @ this revisionist shit that RE4 sucked   RE4 was easily the top game of that generation. Mechanically, it was so advanced, so ahead of the curb that every western game copied it. It was

RE4 is exceptional. The atmosphere is still top notch and it’s filled with the tense, foreboding moments you expect to see in a RE game.

well, that too

No, I'd still pay money ($15) for a fixed camera DLC for this game that reworks it for function.

 

Also why do sheep care about Resident Evil, you guys haven't had a real one in 14 years :reg:

LOL I can set my watch to this butthurt.

 

No, the RE purist did not make a SOUND from the moment this game was announced until release. They're not actual RE gameplay purists, they're just original trilogy fanboys.

 

Its a shame because REmake completely threw away the original artstyle, and made it look significantly better and realistic.

 

The only flaw I see with RE2 is that they intentionally chose to keep the same aesthetic, the same late 90's design.  Some of those gameplay clips could be mistaken for RE Revelations.

re 4 is garbage now. 

 

as for re 2 remake - it's what the fans wanted: classic re atmopshere and a  mix of exploration/combat/tension/puzzles...but with a more modernized combat system.

I like the old style, I like the new style. I'm just a RE fan, I don't really have a preference.

 

I think REmake 2 did a solid job blending the two styles. There's definitely some improvements that could be made but this was a great first attempt. Hopefully the next RE game does a better job and nails it.

I forgot about RE7.

 

RE7 is also responsible for killing the RE purists.  So now, the series has been fixed-camera tank controls, 3rd person action and aiming controls, and first person controls.

 

The series has pretty much dissolved its perceived unique gameplay mechanic, and people are just happy at the improvements to its atmosphere.

 

Still doesn't stop RE4 from kicking the most amounts of ass. Hope Mikami can return back to Capcom in the future to oversee the eventual RE4ever remake in the year 2025.

I'm just glad they've turned away from the action games masquerading as survival horror like RE4, 5 and 6. Even the hybrid effort like Revelations 1 and 2 sucked ass. 

 

I was almost done with the series before RE7 came out.

Get the fuck out. :camby:

the game is unplayable now. 0 atmosphere. clunky controls. shit setting. at least re remake, despite its  awful tank controls,  has great atmosphere. 

 

4  was a great action-adventure game for its time, but it sucks now.  5 was worse (my biggest disappointment last gen)

lol it's true :smoke:

Maybe for filthy lemmings that hate games so much they bought an xbox, but for the rest of us RE4 is the pinnacle of action horror.

RE4 is fucking garbage, Jehurey :tom: 

 

Don't even put it in the same sentence as RE2make :mj2:

 

The camera was never RE4's problem... it was the lack of horror or puzzles, the waves and waves of stupid looking enemies.  The stupid castle location with a lava pit right inside :drake:  the dumb fucking characters :tom:  the fucking Ashley escort mission :cruise:  

 

What a shitty RE game. :shake:   RE2 is as close to pure RE with over the shoulder as you can get... and that's why it's awesome.  :reg:
