Capcom The Resident Evil Thread

From this link, it said neXt chapter/saga after Re9.

I don't think a reboot would work for such an old franchise like this. There's just too much baggage/ history to do a page 1 reboot.

I like all the ridiculous continuity and lore established over so many games, so I prefer the series to never get rebooted.

I finished the very first Resident Evil last summer on the classic side of Playstation Plus. I'm hoping they put Resident Evil 2 on there at some point. Loved that game.

RE2 is my series favourite.

Last night, i just watched a walk through of Re1's mansion parts to familiarize myself again with the old map.

For some reason, I like the mansion's look more in the 1996 game, than in the remake. I feel like the details of the remake when it came to the visual look of the mansion looked too grand for me.

If they remake the first game in RE Engine, I'm hoping a miX of both mansions. Not too empty/plain and also not too grand/maXimalist. I'm also not a fan of the eXtra rooms in the remake. They made that mansion too big.

I know I'm way late, but finally playing RE4 Remake.
Doing what I always do, start off on easy (assisted iirc for this game) and then move on to other difficulty modes. I love comparing enemy health/damage, item placement, loot drops, etc.
It does feel a bit too easy at times, very much with training wheels at times. So, can't wait to get to the other difficulties and compare.

But i'm loving it.

 

[MadderMaximus]

I've been loving the RE4 Remake, but I don't have a lot of time put in. I'm on a 2nd run-through, about to take on Krauser for good, and I still don't have my previous infinite rocket-launcher lol.

That is so cool. Capcom should chuck the modder some cash and put this in the official game.

Enough of the remakes make new games or reboot the entire franchise.

 

[psylockolussus]

I watched that fiXed camera video as well I think last week and yeah it is cool.

I think Capcom could easily offer 1st person/fiXed camera if they want to. I feel like we are already in 2024, this should be an option now, well since GTA V came out in PS4 (that game offers 3rd/1st person).

It's my favorite. I once played it for an entire day straight. Only taking breaks for the rest room and food. I was addicted.

You could play almost any other game in this series and have a better time. An incredibly half-assed sequel.

nice. was it just and an AI partner or did you have a friend playing with you?

lol well Mr. Joe Von Zombie, I'm actually not really into zombie games or the horror genre, for that matter. I made an exception for tlour and for this game particularly because I had the nostalgia of watching my cousins play it back in 2009, and one of my best friends persuaded me to buy it on sale from the Pstore so that we could co-op.

 

[psylockolussus]

I don't like the sound of RE Open world game for RE9.

Is it going to be like those FromSoftware games, where you are thrown in a big location. You can freeroam yet enemies are just everywhere.

Or is it going to be like GTA/Assassin's Creed, when there's npcs on the street and you can ride a vehicle while going to point A to point B.

It sounds eXperimental like RE6 (with its multiple campaigns) and I hope it doesn't backfire.

I went solo every time. Sheva was hassle sometimes, but overall it wasn't a big deal. Haters can burn, because I love that game and had a blast.

gotcha. I was playing as Sheva in the current playthrough. man...we really gotta get back into it. I think we were on chapter 4? there are 6 chapters total, right?

 

[psylockolussus]

I think it will be like this

2025: Resident Evil HelIX
2027: Resident Evil 5

As much as I want to see Re5r sooner than later. Releasing it just 1 year after IX might not be a good idea. Plus RE4R was released almost 3 years after RE3R. Though I would like to be surprised if we get a remake of the first game or even Zerø or Code Veronica. Those three need a third person camera treatment.

Resident Evil 9 Reportedly Internally Delayed - PlayStation LifeStyle

Production on Resident Evil 9 has allegedly been delayed, with another Resident Evil title possibly jumping ahead of it.

www.playstationlifestyle.net

I'm more excited for the next remake than a Resident Evil 9, so I don't mind if it doesn't come out til 2026.

From that article, it sounds like its going to be either Code Veronica or 5 - for the next remake based from the fan demand. I know Capcom listens because they hand out surveys for fans to fill up. But they should really just go ahead with Code Veronica. The remake Claire actress can't possibly be just a one and done. After Code Veronica remake, there would be plenty of time to remake 5 anyway. Which I can't say to Code Veronica, if another post Cv gets remade again.

Resident Evil 9 Reveal, Release Date Announcement Reportedly Coming Soon - PlayStation LifeStyle

A known insider has claimed that Resident Evil 9 will be revealed soon and its release date won't be too far off.

They should have either Jill or Claire as the protagonist of RE9, if they wanted a returning veteran character.

Before the Ethan games, Chris/Leon both had their lead moment on RE6 (with female characters like Helena, Sherry and Ada all relegated to supporting characters). In Re5, it was Chris and in RE4, it was Leon. In Re7/8, the veteran character we saw returned in the story was Chris. And now in Re9, its going to be Leon? See,how they keep circling back to these two characters in the last two decades.

Meanwhile Jill and Claire (excluding the remakes) haven't headlined a numbered game for two decades. Leon is probably my favorite RE character, but they should really give Claire and Jill the lead role again aside from the remakes.

 

[TheVileOne]

How long was the time skip in Resident Evil Village? Aren't Leon and Chris in their 50s at this point? Leon should be pushing close to 50 at this point. I read that Rose could have accelerated aging, but has that been confirmed?

I mean I do get it. Leon is a popular character. Maybe Capcom feels more comfortable sticking with a reliable mainstay character after the Ethan saga which marked a shake-up for the franchise when it really needed it.
