I would also like the classic fixed camera as an option, for more nostalgia vibes.

Modern day Eliminators are going to be a menace.

I actually haven't finished Re0 and RE1R despite owning them for years now.

Fixed camera turned me away.

Hoping this time Capcom puts in item boxes.

I had the same problem until I played on a controller rather than keyboard + mouse and then it worked better. I feel like the old style is easier to accept if you played them back then and have some nostalgia for them, because getting into that style of game in the modern era was challenging... for me at least. Would still say RE1R is among the best even if I would enjoy a remake in the third person format more.

I have nostalgia for RE1, RE2 and RE3 and have finished them on PS1. I also had the 1st Outbreak game for the PS2 (though I didn't finish it, because I couldn't figure it out). I had Survivor too for the PS1, I didn't finish it because I didn't like it because it was so different from the first 3 games.

I have already played RE4, before I got RE1R and RE0 and by that time I already adjusted myself to third person perspective. I pretty much bought the Origins Collection for my shelf, so it would be displayed next to the other RE games.

That's fair!

Some people get weirdly elitist when it comes to these long running franchises and they hold the first few games up to a standard nothing else can touch, and look down at anyone who would rank a newer game higher. I think sometimes nostalgia and memories attached to a game (and the state of mind/age you were in when you played it) can greatly add to the experience but for others it's not a factor at all.

While I do think some classics are classics for a reason and still hold up, I also don't see what's wrong with liking a remake more for example if you get better graphics and a more polished gaming experience. I have not played Code Veronica for example but the way people talk about that game is like the suffering and bad game design is part of the 'fun'.
