How Resident Evil 3 Remake Changed Jill Valentine
However, as many other franchises have discovered, you cannot just depend on this feeling. RE2 and RE3 remakes made sense from a functional standpoint, but RE4 may not be necessary beyond feelings of nostal
While the trailer does not confirm that the gameplay within the game will take place at an earlier date, the clues do point to a more in-depth introduction giving us insight into the city’s descent to chaos. As far as important dates are concerned, the gameplay in the original Resident Evil 3 began when Jill Valentine left her apartment on September 28, 1998 , a day before Resident Evil 2 ‘s events begin. By September 28, the city was already in desolate ruins, overrun with hordes of zombies and had become lawl
The 2010s saw a resurgence in zombie popularity, largely due to AMC’s hit series The Walking Dead . In 2020, zombies are still a highly relevant antagonist in pop culture, whether it’s TV or video games. Zombies definitely aren’t going away anytime soon when it comes to the entertainment industry, so why should they go away in the next RE rem
It is important to take note of the way the lighting and shadows block out the full picture of the Nemesis in the new trailer, as even Jill probably did not have time to get a clear look at the creature, other than deciphering something big and threatening stalking her. Therefore, this can still setup the first ‘clear’ encounter with the Nemesis in similar fashion to the original game’s timeline in the story, without any major chan
However, it looks like this game franchise could be a victim of attrition and “falling interest.” It’s the same reason why the movie sequel always seems not to do as well. If the numbers are low for RE3 , the chances are high that the same will happen to an RE4 rem
A good example of this is the way Brad Vickers died in Resident Evil 3 remake. In the original game, Brad died in front of Jill Valentine, after he was captured and killed by Nemesis. This scene soon became one of the most iconic and memorable deaths in the Resident Evil franchise, and surprisingly enough, Capcom decided not to include this in the remake. Instead, the 2020 reimagining finally gave Brad his redemption arc , allowing him to sacrifice his life to save Jill. Sure it’s disappointing that Brad was killed by zombies instead of Nemesis, but the change made for a better story, making Brad’s death more meaningful as compared to the original g
Considering RE4 is known to sell better than Code: Veronica , it’s more than likely Capcom will go with the money. The game was even able to sell roughly 1.6 million units for their 2016 re-release on Xbox One and PS4 . And that was just another remaster. When profits come first, Code: Veronica will need to take a back s
Resident Evil Code: Veronica is one of the top selling and best reviewed games on the Dreamcast. In 2020, its cult following is strong enough to make Code Veronica a top trending topic on Twitter. When rumors suggested that RE4 was next in line for a reboot, fans of the famed Dreamcast game voiced their frustrations and got the attention of the gaming press. The Cult of Code Veronica will not be silen
Code: Veronica embodies the survival horror franchise in ways RE4 never will. Beginning with Resident Evil 7 , Capcom has shown a survival horror resurgence with main title RE games. But, of course, the action-Adventure Game Missions RE games have also sold provably we
Resident Evil 4 also stands as one of the most iconic and popular stories in the series to date, with the return of Leon and the establishment of an entirely new tone for the franchise becoming unanimously celebrated by the fanbase. There’s no denying that the game features some of the best moments in the entire series so far, with Leon’s first encounter with the game’s horrifying villagers , the intense cabin assault, and his battle with the unstoppable Verdugo standing as a mere handful of the game’s biggest highlights. It stands to reason that a tale this iconic in terms of both Resident Evil and gaming as a whole deserves to be touched up and re-released in modern-day, regardless of whether or not its original release still holds up under modern scrut
Code: Veronica originally released on the Sega Dreamcast in February 2000. This game is about five years older than RE4 which shows with the game’s much more dated graphics. Meanwhile, RE4 has gotten remaster after remaster since its 2005 release. At the same time, Code: Veronica hasn’t seen any graphical improvements since the HD re-release in 2
Although, at its time, Resident Evil 4 was certainly revolutionary when it came to third-person shooters. But in 2020, the game stands out as a product of the past that doesn’t live up to current shooter standards. Adding a “run and gun” dynamic to the game would definitely appeal to casual gamers and bring RE4 up to sp
Following Sony’s most recent State of Play event, it’s finally official that Resident Evil 3 will be seeing a modern reimagining in early April next year. The iconic game has been the only thing on the minds of franchise veterans since the rampant success of the Resident Evil 2 remake back in February, and while many forecasted that the game would be a major ways off, it turns out Capcom has its finger on the pulse when delivering the next big Resident Evil experie
