    To anyone saying this game "Isn't a Resident Evil game"
    The greater Resident Evil franchise consists of everything from Dino Crisis, to Devil May Cry, to various in-series spinoffs. Such as Resident Evil: Survivor, an FPS. Survivor 2: Code Veronica, a short but good FPS. Dead Aim, an FPS/Third person hybrid which sucks. Gaiden, a top-down 2D game on the GBC. 0, a single-player co-op version of the previous games. Two whole rail-shooters (The Chronicles games, Umbrella and Darkside), a pair of online co-op pseudo-classic games. Umbrella Chronicles, a third-person shooter. Umbrella Corps, a first/third-person tactical shooter. The series went from fixed-camera to third-person, fixed-aiming to letting you move around like a real third-person shooter. Resident Evil has been many things. The series has no identity.

      Ironically, RE1 was suppose to be a FPS game, but Mikami had to resort to FCA because of the hardware limitations at the time.

    Having guns that can't actually kill the enemies is actually an interesting idea and would make thematic sense in a lot of the horror games that have you fighting monsters that could easily shrug off a bullet or two. Instead of using a gun as a weapon, you could use it as a tool to break structures at a distance or as a lure to make monsters go where you want them to. It might take a bit of effort to make it work, but a scene where the protagonist realizes that his gun will do nothing against the big monster and needs to find a more creative way to use it would make for a pretty cool scene.

Sometimes you just want to appreciate the craftsmanship of a good ol' scary story, well told and dripping with atmosphere.

    Every time the writers from RE4 hear you talk about how the went "intentionally camp" for the story... They nervously laugh, make an excuse to leave, and cry into the steering wheel on the way home.
    On a serious note, you always seem to assume it was intentional. I wonder if your opinion on the game would change at all if a writer from the game told you that was their best attempt at a serious complex drama narrative.

      It wasn't the black enemies really. It was the fact that the swamp levels had literally spearchucking tribals and firebreathing shamans, which would be fine on their own but combined with the "realistic" depiction of a poor African township in the beginning comes off as really racist.

    @jasonhasenfus6090 Před rokem

    So I had this thought of a way to combine the whole outlast gameplay where you run and hide from the monsters along with the resident evil thing here you can actually fight. Make it so combat is discourage. And I don’t mean like make ammo scarce or the enemies are bullet sponges. But in where the player character can barely fight. Where he’s the average Joe who has never fired a gun is his life so when you get the gun your aim is shaky so you can barley aim. You don’t know how to dampen the recoils so depending on what weapon you have your arms are their flung back or you get thrown on your ass. And the reloads times are long since you character barley knows how to reload. So combat is an option but you can barley shoot since the protagonist doesn’t know how to use a gun. You could have some kinda progression where their A:the more you sue the gun the more the character learns and adapts. Or B: you can find instruction booklet on how to reload more effectively and proper stances. You don’t get to a point where it’s becomes and shoot fest but you can at least defend yourself just enough so you don’t get devoured.

      I've heard a LOT of dissent about the gameplay, and the POINT of the story, as Yahtzee even noted, is that they realized their lines are cheesy and overdone, so they played into it by giving the game an action movie plot.

  • @amarantine1323
    @amarantine1323 Před 7 lety +3

    "Bringing back previous resident evil characters no one cares about" Bruh the best thing about resident evil (in my opinion) was that it stayed with familiar charters that you know and love. Resident Evil for the very beginning has also been cheesy campy horror. It was scary at times but funny at others with the bad acting and dialogue. All together I find the series very charming as long as you don't take it too seriously. I hated that 7 had nothing to do with the original characters.

  • @singularityghost6290
    @singularityghost6290 Před 7 lety +7

    I'm surprised he liked it at all. I hated it, there was almost no suspense, the best horror they had was jump scares, and the insane survivability of the main character made the game trivial. Not to mention everything hinged on a plot thread that made no sense (why do I care about my wife who abandoned me? Why would I choose her the murderer over the woman who has been helping me?) and also had no agency for the player. The major choice in the plot is a non choice, the game ends just about the same either way

    • @Starcraftgamer97
      @Starcraftgamer97 Před 7 lety +1

      Heretek To me Zoe withheld. vital info and the other would make that take priority. Though there still was jack shit that made that choice relevant. It was literally the final nail in the coffin for me and the game, which had numerous issues throughout it. I honestly felt like my 60 bucks was wasted. The dlc released a week afterwards is like a shit covered knife being twisted in my back.

    • @Starcraftgamer97
      @Starcraftgamer97 Před 7 lety

      Heretek Also yeah: I was expecting more than just atmosphere but they did nothing to capitalize on it. All those jumpscares were crap and predictable, the writing trivial, and even if I played this on Madhouse it wouldn't be better. Enemies just get tankier, faster, one hit kill you, and chase you. When I know everything is there, it gets ruined. Enemies like the Bakers can rarely be used in such small settings effectively.

      3. It does not end the same way, though I get what your are saying. Mia either dies and all your effort have been for naught or you save her so you can go home and plow her while the dog stands in the corner and watches you.

Yeah, if cheap ass and predictable jumpscares count as horror now a days. The atmosphere was hands down the best part of this but nothing capitalized on it. I am easily the most easy to scare people on the planet and this game got me a total of...1 time maybe? Maybe 2?
