Probably fucking awesome. I liked RE2make but it wasn't amazing by any stretch. They just removed too much stuff. Gameplay itself was nice and tight and HD was nice blah blah blah, but the original RE remake is still the best.

It's ironic that the autist who claims I'm obsessing over him can't stop obsessing over how much he hates two games that we've talked to death about by this point.

Don't tell this guy that you can do WWE style German suplexes and roundhouse kick the enemies in Resident Evil 4. He'd rather spin around in circles down a hallway from the POV of a CCTV camera.
The games that continue the core spirit of Resident Evil by being cheesy mediocre plot ridden "horror" movies in video game form?
You mean saved the franchise from death like Fallout 3 did to Fallout?
The series that is an homage to cheesy mediocre plot ridden horror movies with 99% of the characters all being Americans and most of the games being set in America? Resident Evil has always been "westernized."
No, we just don't want to play a game from the POV of a CCTV camera looking at someone turn like they're standing in place way on the other end of a hallway. The Mario comparison is perfect because we can easily swap your shit RE takes for someone making shit Mario takes. Your "RE4 isn't real Resident Evil" would be the same thing as some retard saying "Mario 64 isn't real Mario because it's not a 2D side scroller pixel game."
That argument sounds retarded and so do your RE ones.
1. There are plenty of homage games with Tank(Bad) controls/Fixed(bad) camera. Go play them. They're cheaply priced and will provide you with enjoyment.
2. You've literally done nothing but tard rage about 3rd Person camera for several posts. You have no room to talk you absolute hypocrite. Comparing Resident Evil 4-6 to Gears of War (I assume you weren't talking about God of War) is also dumb. Gears of War is a TPS cover shooter game that has no resource management at all. There is no backtracking in gears of war and you automatically pick up ammo from boxes on the ground or the guns of the dead enemies. There are levels that begin and end and there are checkpoints, not typewriters or things of that nature. Resident Evil 6 does have a cover system but it's quite different from Gears. As someone earlier said, apples to oranges.
3, Again like I've said, you're a hypocrite. You're "chimping out" about 3rd Person because we DARE to want that instead of fixed camera/tank controls. Nobody here is telling you you're bad for liking TC/FC, I haven't seen even one person. Hell people tell me they like FPS Resident Evil and I don't sperg out on them. I merely call them out when they try to compare 7 to the original games and say that tired old "hurr durr muh back to da rootz" garbage. Because 7 is nothing like the Original Trilogy.

I'll be honest, while I personally prefer the old "tank controls" style of Resident Evil, I also get why it died out. Fixed camera angles and tank controls were originally only there to get around the technical limits of being a PS1 game and I'll admit a lot of my preference for the old style is due to nostalgia.
There's a reason why RE4 gets a re-release every console generation and even when RE went back to a more horror-oriented direction in RE7 and the RE2 remake, they were done in either first-person or the Over-The-Shoulder style.

Exactly. People see those things as stylistic decisions, not the practical decisions that they were. They made sense at the time, just like 2D side scrolling made sense with the technology they had. Now, people take those styles of game and treat them like actual styles, because of nostalgia or because they are are cheaper than making games using more modern techniques. But those are genre throwbacks. We don't have the same technical limitations to limit us. If Resident Evil had continued to use that same style of gameplay up till today, people would probably be calling it old and stale because it isn't innovative anymore. There's a reason that RE-clones began to drop off massively after we left the PS1/Saturn/N64 generation, where they proliferated. But then you have people like Avalanche Reviews who consider the original RE to literally define survival horror (yes, tank controls, prerendered backgrounds, and all), when RE wasn't even the first survival horror game (that title goes to 1989's Sweet Home, another Capcom game that Resident Evil is a partial remake of), nor did it originate the tank control style of gameplay (which was invented by Alone in the Dark).
Funnily enough, the original Resident Evil was originally conceived as a first person shooter. It was shifted to being an Alone in the Dark clone because of the technical limitations, and because the team weren't sure how to do horror in first person (the only first person games at the time were shooters like Quake; games like Outlast and Amnesia didn't exist yet to show that type of game was possible).

Because you're not an unreasonable person. You prefer the old style of games and that's ok, but you're not a spergy cunt about it like the dude who ironically has pictures of Resident Evil 5 Wesker as both his profile picture and banner. If he hates the second trilogy so much, why doesn't he have Wesker from the first game as his pfp and banner?
Alone in the Dark is getting remade (again). This remake looks to be taking inspiration from RE 2 Remake which is ironic because like you said, Alone in the Dark walked so Resi could run.
Funny enough, you have original style Resi clones popping up now as sort of a tribute and nostalgia bait for fans of that style.
Resident Evil 5 doesn't have a cover system and the enemies with guns are in a small section at the end of the game. I'll hand it to you about Resident Evil 6, specifically in Chris' campaign.

well re5 did have cover prompts at least in the first areas where you encounter the manjis.
then again, re4 had them too when encountering the guys tossing explosives that one time.

If you don't mind me chiming in, Those are indeed the trappings with classic survival horror. But I think the key people always seem to forget is the Survival part.
If the game poorly balanced/more action focused and you always have more then enough supplies then needed even if you play sloppy then it's no longer about surviving.
Take for example Evil Dead Hail to The King. It has all the trappings of classic SH, but once you done with the learning curb of the controls you will never not be ready to murder what ever deadite cock blocks your way(and they fucking love spawning in front of you). Enemies can even drop ammo for the guns, and HP, like RE4. Hell the HP drops has a limit(from what I can tell) if you hold too many at once Enemies will stop dropping them completely till you use some. It's why despite looking like RE clone with a Evil Dead skin, it really more of a proto action horror. Even the final boss spawns HP for you despite it not making sense.

There's like three of you gatekeeping faggots that were provoking an argument out of me and I tried to avoid it, and you got it. It's just as I stated that you can't talk about liking the old games over the new ones without you dilating trannies to just accept that and move on.
I already said I don't think anything beyond RE6 is canon. Go back and look. I do appreciate aspects of that trilogy, retard. I don't have to hate them entirely. You don't understand nuance. I just think the OTS shit is tired and has run it's course.
Go jerk off to Blaire White some more. You like a man in a dress and men that roll around in a ring sweating onto each other.

I think people, especially old fans, get way too caught up in the perspective issue and completely lose the plot. Survival horror works just fine in OTS or First Person because it is a collection of mechanics and tone, not a camera perspective.
RE7 to me is very much a survival horror game, but I get the impression people would be kinder to it if it was a fixed camera title.
I can't stand this shit about his videos. Every single one has some extended rant where he whines about people mislabeling a game as survival horror because it doesn't have tank controls and fixed camera angles. It's such a bizarre distinction that only classicfags get hung up on.

SOME people would be kinder to it but waaaaaaaay more people would be annoyed or uninterested in the game. But you wouldn't hear much about it because they're normal people that will never have a single PS1 RE meltdown on the internet. Wesker is the perfect example of why devs should never, ever, listen to the Yoko's on the internet.

There's at least three or so of you whiny, pretend-grognard faggots (one of which admitted he never played any of the older games) that keep circlejerking in this thread and throwing fits anytime anyone disagrees with you, and you all keep circlejerking about the same topics over and over.
Nobody's gatekeeping you crybabies. People are just disagreeing with your points because you keep talking like you've really never played the series to any sort of appreciable depth. The only reason you were marginally agreeable at first is because you were essentially parroting the same talking points and common takes that have been present in the common discourse for years now.
Arguing doesn't necessarily have to have a negative connotation either, but you seem to take exception to being disagreed with. That's a "you" problem more than anything, and it makes you come across as disingenuous.

I'd love more period piece zombie games in general. It's a shame RE is firmly planted in 21st century because s western or maybe Vietnam era outbreak could be a ton of fun.
