Remasters are more common than remakes, and the story of RE2 remake is a surprise to be sure but a welcome one. The Resident Evil franchise started off as a pillar of survival horror, but in time grew to be more centered on the action rather the ambiance. But then Resident Evil 7 debuted and the horror was back. Things were scary, uneasy, southern. And the reception to this style paved the way for the Resident Evil 2 remake. But can a game from the past be polished with current engines and graphics? Where do we draw the line between preserving that nolstagiac gaming experience to then improving upon limitations of that time? Let's play Resident Evil 2 to fine out!

There are also script problems, like when Leon says, "you said the virus turns people into monsters, not reptiles!" This kinda doesnt make sense, since he has seen zombie dogs, so other animals wouldnt be out of the question. The story in my opinion sucked in the remake, as it disregards some important aspects that linked the original to other games, such as Re1, Umbrella Chronicles, and Darkside Chronicles.

And I don't mean that as in it is disturbing or anything, I mean they bring the art style to a point of realism that it ultimately looks more cartoon-like than they wanted. I would like them to go back to the old art style, but with the same level of detail that they have here.

@mightybardin5965 4 жыл бұрын
well tank controls are not only clunky, they’re slow, and sometimes camera angles make movements absolutely wonky, especially if you’ve never used then before. Now I can’t say for anyone else but I don’t necessarily hate tank controls. It’s just for me was born in 1998 so the games I grew up playing, while still clunky in control were less so than it’s not to long ago predecessors. In fact the first time I got a taste of true tank controls was actually on 10/11/2019 when I found an gamecube emulator and the original RE2. I struggled so hard to wrap my head around it that I died three or so times Before I even made it to the gun shop in Clair A because I just couldn’t wrap my head around these weird controls. I probably wouldn’t have stuck to the game if it weren’t for that arranged mode to help me get aquatinted with the movement of yesteryear. Now that I’m aquatinted with it, I’m ok with tank controls. However it’s no contest if I’m given the chance between choosing either tank controls or modern controls, I will always chose modern controls

I don't hate it too, specially in the 3 old games. But 4 onwards i think they became a little frustrating, because, by association, i was already expecting strafing and more agile movement system, which would be a bless in an action game like RE4. Is infuriating too see leon slowly turn when there's an enemy near you just because reasons.

@@conorallen100 Tank controls work really well with the RE franchise's early titles. They add to the tension and take control away from the player for the sake of atmosphere, which is a bold choice, but one thing that people tend to overlook is how well the tank controls work with the static camera angles. With tank controls, pushing forward will always make you go forward, regardless of where the camera is pointing so you don't have to worry about awkwardly leaving a camera's range and entering a new area only to press the wrong direction and walk right back out. They actually took out the tank controls in the RE1 remake for Gamecube (I don't remember if they were off by default, though) and it broke some of the game's mechanics and pacing, which goes to show you how well the two really fit together.

The reason much of that went unexplained is because it would disrupt the story with exposition for an event that has nothing to do with the player character. It's a good choice. If you want to know more, it's in the notes you find. The mayor's daughter is there to entice you into reading those notes, for example. But a long winded explanation into what happened to her by the Chief or whatever would just cause the player to ask, "Why are you telling me this." I'm also baffled as to why people keep expecting to be able to "explore more of Raccoon City" in RE2 when that was one of the major differences that separated RE2 and RE3.

There were some repeats, but that's something this reimagining could've improved on. This is not gonna be an issue if Capcom remakes any RE post RE2 though, as those usually only starred one main character.

Nail in the coffin for your ineffectively made and flat-out wrong point: RE4's old camera angles mod makes it play like classic RE games without changing the controls in the slightest because they're--and wait for it...-- tank controls. So you can say it again if you want but at this point that would just be sad. RE4, without any modification to the controls, has tank controls; it's not debatable.

Loved this game, went above and beyond to complete it myself. But I feel you should give the game a bit more credit for a few things. especially all the easter eggs (Rebecca's photo , Brad's poster, the squad's picture, Rita and David from outbreak and a few others for example.) The fact you can change the audio to the original is amazing too, along with the new free DLC 98' skins makes it a surreal experience lol. I did find it a bit of a bummer that there is no true continuity between scenario A and B like in the originals , but in my opinion they added enough for it to feel good anyway. I sincerely hope we will get a true DLC where we get to play and explore like in the main game instead of an arcade shoot em up. Maybe Brad's attempt at escaping as a RE3 Remake precursor ? Or even an Outbreak scenario with Rita and David? I'd love that.

Okay, I feel like there is something that needs to be said about RE4 here. Yes, the gameplay changed, but it was a RE game through and through. It is possible to completely run out of resources, the story is following the same path, and it has the same theme, bioterror. That's right, bioterror, not zombies. Zombies may be the main enemy in the first few games, but the series, including in the original Japanese name, has always been about bioterror. Think about it, what non-zombie enemies are in the first game? Here is a few: the Adders (snakes), Lisa, Tyrant, the Chimeras, the bees, the Hunters, the sharks, Yawn, Plant 42, and the tarantulas including the big red one. It wasn't until Operation Raccoon City that things started to deviate in terms of completely leaving the survival horror genre.

@@satorukuroshiro I have a counter argument, RE4 is single handedly responsible for the direction the series took, with it's over-the-top action set pieces, constant ammo drops from enemies ensuring you never truly ran out of ammo, stupid melee combat, obnoxious QTE's, ugly drab colour scheme... basically everything that people hate about 5 & 6 started with RE4.... not to mention it's one long escort mission with the most useless annoying character in videogame history, Ashley, I was more afraid for my sanity if I had to listen to her shout "LEEOOOOON!" one more f***ing time! As someone who is old enough to have played ALL the original series _day one as they released_ RE4 is definitely not considered an RE game in my eyes. Fun action shooter yes, like 5 & 6 are, but RE it is not.
@amarson2322 4 жыл бұрын
Samur/Aye Look “ugly colour scheme” “stupid mele combat” “you never truly ran out od ammo” is actually all just your opinion, a lot of people loved re4 and its one of the mostcritically acclaimed games of all time. It reinvented 3rd person over the shoulder camera thats is being used till to this day. Unmatchable level and encounter design, enemies are also creative and scary (regeneradors doesn’t ring a bell to you ?) You can easily run out of ammo if you aren’t carefull enough. Its a perfect mix between horror and action..something that re5/6 lacks....So don’t compare re4 to re5 because of the only thing they have in common is gameplay and over the shoulder camera. Atmosphere and level design is so much better in re4 than in those khm hkm action gameshmh hm. Also its the highest rated game in the series with 96 score and 9.1 user score. Ashley could be annoying but useful instructions like “follow me” or “wait” button can make your life a lot easier. Lets see enemy is approaching you while Ashley is on vulnerable position and you can quickly press “follow me” button so she can evade the enemy, its really not that hard to navigate her through some obstacles through the game. So your immature trynna be egdy swearing about that is not necessary.
@SA80TAGE 4 жыл бұрын
@@amarson2322 those aren't opinions, they are facts... unless you like the colours of shit stained brown, dull greys and puke greens? And no, the regenerators aren't scary. Only a child would be "scared" of anything in any RE game, and I was already an adult when RE4 came out. Running out of ammo was also never an issue if you knew how to aim properly and didn't waste ammo like a noob. While not really combat centric, Splinter Cell did that 3rd person ots camera 3 years before RE4, Max Payne did it 4 years before, so it didn't re-invent anything. Only reason people love this game so much is the nostalgia from it blowing their tiny minds as a kid. I'll also add that "a lot of people" love the Transformers movies, but that doesn't make them good movies.

Nemesis sprints after you from a random door or jumps from somewhere. And can insta kill with the tentacle. Impressive though you completed this so well, wonder how you got on with the additional survivor games. I did hardcore on both characters plus hunk under 9 mins, that's enough for me. (Hardcore was tough, and a bit brown with ammo amount placed in 1 or 2 boss arenas, 1st birkin fight in particular).

Re 4 is closer to a resident evil game than resident evil revelations, or any other iteration from up to the point of re 6. Playing it on professional makes it exactly like a proper resident evil game, whereby I remember as an inexperienced player, I was getting the same vibes, if not better than that of resident evil 2 in terms of survival. I think it was the naivety that it was going to be the same as a normal run. It rewards skilled players really well, but of course the forced action sequences are a terrible part of this great game. Its just resident evil nemesis without the item management. Sad that most people do not realise this.
