What are your thoughts on the modern RE remakes?
2 is the only superior remake.
RE4 and RE2 are amazing games that were so well optimized on release.
RE4 has better reception
I have all the RE games except for 7 and 8 but I still haven't played them. For the past 2 years I keep saying I'm going to play them during October but then spooky season come and go and I never play them. I think I'm just gonna say fuck it and play them over the course of the summer.
All of the run flawlessly on my shitass pc cuz RE Engine is magic, so they're all kinobased
I'm retarded. I forgot to mention I played the OG 1-3 and 5. Never played 4. I honestly don't remember if I played 0 or CV, probably not. I started 6 and Revelations but didn't get far.
I really liked 2 because I love the mixture of old-school resi corridor backtracking with post-RE4 OTS TPS gameplay. Though it has a lot of problems, especially with the route A/B stuff which was phoned in hard.
3 sucked across the board. As a game it can be fun but deteriorates into brainless shooter gameplay with bad bosses and terrible on rails sequences. Just treat it as DLC for 2.
4 is a good remake but it's wildly inferior to the original in many ways. Crosshair shooting will always be inferior to the laser sights in OGRE4, and having laser sights for certain weapons as a callback to that will not make up for losing them on every other gun.
2 spoopy for me
I liked the remake of 2. I haven't played the others. But I will complain about the Silent hill 2 remake, what reason was there to add so much bloat? By the time I got to the labrynth I was ready for the game to be over, but no still have to do the three puzzle to unlock the thing in the central location every other location has. The original didn't have this problem, even the RE remakes didn't have this problem. I have zero desire to replay the game for the different endings because of all the filler added
Absolutely disgusting clusterfuck de-makes.
Literally capsule everything wrong with the modern industry.
Wet, urine reeking slaps in the faces of all the RE fans that waited two decades for RE2 and 3 to get THE REmake (2002) treatment.
what reason was there to add so much bloat?
Just so they can market the game having "four times more content!!".
Also, the modern audiences (tm) HATE replaying games, so the first and only run of theirs need to last more than a single evening.
The SH2 demake was exactly the same trash as RE2-4, and literally yet another SH: Homecoming reskin. The over-shoulder action slop cancer needs to cease.
Completely and utterly make the originals obsolete.
I'm le filtered because I can't kill every zombies I met
Didn't even touched original 0,1,2,3,code Veronica
woke slop
Unfortunately classic survival horror will probably be relegated to the indie space. Zoomers shit and piss their pants at the thought of tank controls
4th survivor is some of the most fun ive had in a long time. made me wanna speedrun
REmake 1 - trash where every addition sucked shit
REmake 2 - trash where every omission sucked shit
REmake 3 - trash that is blatantly a DLC that got turned into a standalone game
REmake 4 - trash where every change sucked shit
Remakes are shit. Play the originals.
REmake 1 - trash where every addition sucked shit
filtered.
2Remake was decent but then Capcom decided to fuck everything with R3make and some lousy multiplayer games that no one played
Haven't played the remake of 4 so I can't say anything about it
Unfortunately classic survival horror will probably be relegated to the indie space
It already has been doing so for the past decade.
You're also underestimating the zoom zooms. Many older Gen-Zedders are huge classic RE and SH fans. Not to mention just like the turn-based JRPG gameplay was "disliked" by the modern audiences (source: the AAA publishers of 2020s), the oldschool genres and playstyles are coming back in style. Simply because the mainstream industry is sooo fucking monotone and predictable these days.
2Remake was decent but then Capcom decided to fuck everything with R3make
I don't get you DEmake2 fags shitting on RE3DE. They are exactly the same trash, exact same sins.
Remake 1 is fine, the new content added was fine and it wasn't overly bloated like SH2 Remake that felt the need to pad out areas that were already the perfect length
I'd at the very least like a proper HD remaster of SH 2-4 but since Konami doesn't want to pay the voice actors or an actually competent remaster developer it's probably never going to happen. We will just get a bloated remake of 1 and 3 and 4 will probably be ignored
exact same sins
RE3make cut way more than RE2make, but more than that is the fact that people were more forgiving towards RE2make because no one knew if it'd be any good, and Capcom themselves stated that they were unsure if it'd do well. But once it was well received, everyone assumed that Capcom would go and make the next remake even better, and more faithful.
This was a mistake on their ends, because Capcom is a shitty, lazy company.
I'd at the very least like a proper HD remaster of SH 2-4
Just play the PC versions, my negro:
pastebin.com
No censorship, no nu-VAs, 8K res at any aspect ratio if you so desire, unlocked framerate.
Remake 1 is fine, the new content added was fine
Most of its new content was just linear paths and one of the hokiest monsters in the series.
Should've kept Lisa Trevor as new files and you find her still maintained room or something, keep it mysterious, as she is in the main game she is really silly (especially with the underground crypt that all guardhouse staff have to go through to reach the labs).
people were more forgiving towards RE2make because no one knew if it'd be any good
And it was not. It was absolutely fucking awful. Literally THE worst case scenario come true to any and all classic survival horror fans that were actually ALIVE back in the 1990s.
Being a more solid turd instead of pool of diarrhea isn't much of an upgrade. And at least RE3R shipped with classic style OST out of the box, and didn't even try to mimick the oldschool gameplay with its OTS style.
RE2R>RE2
RE3>>>>>>>>>>RE3R
RE4R>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>RE4
Garbage to be quite honest with you.
And the RE's that actually needed never got a Demake.
I'd at the very least like a proper HD remaster of SH 2-4 but since Konami doesn't want to pay the voice actors
Greater issue than that.
A lot of VAs are dead or can't be found due to insufficient documentation, and some issues resolved in ambiguous ways (like Lisa's SH1 VA settling out of court for unpaid reuse of her performance in SH3, and that resulted in all SH1 lines being removed from the PC version despite the settlement).
It's probably impossible to actually remaster 1-3 without severe amounts of legwork done for the performances.
They should be able to do SH4 though, it is still for sale on GOG.
people were more forgiving towards RE2make because no one knew if it'd be any good
Like 95% of the people who bought it never played an original RE game lol.

This is why de Demakes never got shit on as the inferior products that they are
I'm thinking of getting RE4Remake, is it any good. Is the gold edition worth it.
RE4Remake
First Demake that doesn't feel like a demake cause the original was an action / arcade game from the get go. Yeah it's worth it, the new Ada DLC is fun.
I will never forgive Capcom for ruining the RE3 remake. All I wanted was a modern version of RE3 and I got a huge pile of shit. Not only was it shit but they got my hopes up by making RE2 remake so good. Fuck them.
he only plays horror games in october
Solid games but creatively bankrupt.
All I wanted was a modern version of RE3
And thats exatcly what you got
I think they're getting away with 4 because it's technically just the same PC release from the 2000's. Or they made the VAs sign away any rights to royalties after the SH1 lawsuit but didn't do it with the SH2/3 VAs for some reason
Love them all. I don’t obsessively jerk of 30 year old games from my childhood. I don’t care that a 3 screen area from re3 was omitted because it was just filler in the original, and so on.
especially with the underground crypt that all guardhouse staff have to go through to reach the labs
It utterly grinds all forward momentum to a halt when you make it through the caves and pop up in The Cabin in the Woods™ and have to backtrack all the way to the mansion entrance through a bunch of empty rooms just so you can fight a retarded looking Silent Hill wannabe in a Mortal Kombat arena under the house.
That bit in the crypt is fucking retarded for other reasons too, like Barry holding Jill at gunpoint and how it's immediately forgotten or Wesker getting knocked down the bottomless pit and just popping up in the lab later like nothing happened.
2 is great.
3 is bad.
4 is really good but very different.
I'm not upset they exist at all.
Or they made the VAs sign away any rights to royalties after the SH1 lawsuit but didn't do it with the SH2/3 VAs for some reason
The SH1 lawsuit happened after 3 released. It's possible they updated regulations after 4 to tighten down on that issue, and that might also be why they sought out the actors of 2 and 3 during the HDC so they could avoid anymore lawsuits.
For context, Lisa's VA sued and got $5000. Her performance was a minor one comprising a few seconds, so all the 2 and 3 actors would get way more in all likelihood.
But even if they did all get $5000, there was about 8 significant VAs between 2 and 3 (not counting smaller roles). That $5000 is now $40,000.
No. It's the worst trash and a massive downgrade in every conceivable manner.
They cut out too much shit from the original, completely but the later areas to not even attempt to evoke the original game, and they completely botched the B-Scenario. I don’t know why RE3 gets a bunch of flak for doing that, but RE2 gets a pass.
It felt like RE4 was the one where they dug their heels in, and said “we’re not going to cut anything out. Everything will be in, even if it’s shifted around a bit, we’re even going to add a few things”, because of course. They’ve had their tongue up RE4’s ass for 20 years running, while the classic fans are expected to leap for joy over the scraps that they’re allowed.
Re1 and 2 remakes are great, Anon Babble is just full of contrarians. 4 is forgettable, 3 is one of the worst games in the franchise
they got my hopes up by making RE2 remake so good
Nigga, you are dumb as fuck.
RE2 and 3's demakes are literally exact same trash. Insulting as fuck cash-grab, made for people who HATE Resident Evil
mork didn't like it though
Explain.
putting THE REmake and De2make in the same sentence
kys.
Re1 and 2 remakes are great,
No puzzles
No labyrinths
Not a survival Horror
DUDE BUT LE GRAPHICS
Also 4, the only one were the Demake is superior the original is...........LE BAD
OH . MY. FUCKING. UMBRELLA.
2 deserves to exist, but it doesn't replace the original
3 is unfinished
They're going through all this for that small of an amount of money? What a bunch of cheap bastards. The Silent hill pachinko machines probably make more than that in a day
The SH2 demake was exactly the same trash as RE2-4, and literally yet another SH: Homecoming reskin. The over-shoulder action slop cancer needs to cease
“OMG, THE GAME IS MORE THAN JUST A GLORIFIED WALKING SIMULATOR NOW, AND THE ENEMIES ACTUALLY FIGHT BACK INSTEAD OF JUST KIND OF TWITCHING IN PLACE AND WAIT TO BE BEATEN TO DEATH, I’M GOING INSAAAAANE!”
3 is one of the worst games in the franchise
This is how you spot remakefags, because it really isn't.
Yeah sure, RE:3 is worse than
Survivor
Survivor 2
Outbreak 2 (posers don't know)
CVX
Zero
5
Darkside Chronicles (Shaky Cam rail shooter lel)
Operation Raccoon City
Revelations
Resident Evil 6
Umbrella Corps
2 and 4 good. 3 is shit.
You sound like an idiot.
yellow paint
brown and bloom
ineffective weapons, because "lol horror!"
move and shoot meme, no wobbly aim
insane amount of input lag and wind-up time, because "muh realism".
soulless UIX
no more Ballistics
no more "No Thanks, bro!"
Ada's and Ashley's VAs and models suck
every single cutscene's cinematography sucks
RE4 demake is awful
You should like a kissless virgin who has never played a single RE game before the RE7 or DEmake 2. And never will.
You are also brown.
bloats areas that were already perfectly paced with pointless padding like breaking down walls and now having to find all the clock hands
spams enemies at you mid to late game Killing the atmosphere completely
Nowadays? Yeah, mostly during winter/colder months. It just feels right.
Now i'm having second thoughts. Thanks anon.

When was 4 announced relative to when 3 came out, I want to see what they'll do with 5
Great game, definitely worth it if on sale. Don’t ever listen to retards on here seething about nuRe, if you could see their irl faces you’d never give their opinions the time of day.
NP bro.
I'm honestly shocked that some people didn't know about this clusterfuck yet. Even the biggest fans agreed that it was a hackjob remake that nobody asked for.
no sex discrimination... LE BAD!!!
based devs
The 3 remake was outsourced wasn't it? Were they working on it side by side with 2 or was it hastily thrown into production after 2 was a huge hit?
Correct, all remakes suck.
playing the originals first will show you just how shit the remakes are
playing the remakes first will show you just how shit the originals are
2 complete invalidates the need for the OG to exist. It's the same game except better looking. The ideal remake.
Cut content
”What the fuck, why would you cut content that was in the original? How lazy can you get?”
Leave it exactly the same
”It’s literally the same game, just soulless now. Why did they even bother?”
Add new content.
”It’s fucking bloated now, and ruins the pacing.”
There’s no winning with people like you.
Muh pacing
What are you, in a hurry? Just stick with the original.
my god you're fucking delusional
It's the same game except better looking.
Fuck no it’s not, not even close.
Not an argument, esl.
Adding waste bins, breakable walls and horde encounters added nothing but run time to the game. It's also really formulaic to the point I groaned when I got to the prison and it was the exact same "go to three areas solve the three puzzles to get the three items and bring them back to the central puzzle to progress" every "dungeon" has. The only padding I found added to the experience was the extra stuff in the town and they should have left it at that. Also the abstract daddy and Eddie boss fights are objectively worse than the original.
stick with the original
Yeah I will, I've had enough garbage bin moving, wall breaking and cabinet moving for a lifetime
you’re still just fighting the same 4 enemies. SH2 was never a good game, it had elements about it that were good, music, atmosphere, tone. But no good gameplay = not a good game.
The funny thing is most of the complaints about the RE4 remake apply equally to the RE1 remake in one form or another, but that one gets a pass for some reason even though it sucks just as much.
