Thread: Resident Evil 6 (10.02.12) | Switch Edition - 2019    

Leon the more american based Dante!....i miss old Dante

I kinda want them to follow the style of Lost in Nightmares DLC (was very close to RE1 feeling, mansion and all obviously) rather than the original RE5 game. Original RE5 was way too bright and tame, i really hope they step it up some.

Edit: Mmm nice trailer, guess i took too long to post. :7

There was RE5 DLC? I actually enjoyed the game when I rented it but I never got to do the co-op.

I know that caught me offguard and really made me jump. Then again, I was like 10 or 11 the first I played those games, so they had more of an impact on my first impressions of them.

I was around that age too, there's a lot of nostalgia involved with me and RE1-3 and I played them a lot too. But like I said, each RE game definitely has moments that make you go "HOLY SHIT" (I think I said so before), but REs "horror" was always more about immediate shocks and jumps than lasting fear or any real kind of terror. Not to say it doesn't work for making a game scary, but the fear is temporary and immediately shrugged off upon the death of your enemy.

Dead Space was the same for me. I would be scared until the enemies showed themselves, then I would be considerably less scared because I could see and kill them, and then not at all scared after they died. The only thing that counter acts the 2nd part is if the enemy comes with some instant kill move and is hard to kill. RE4 did this with the Regenerators/Iron Maidens(?), which I personally felt was the best enemy in that game, but positioned very poorly for the most part (except for 1 instance which was truly terrifying).

Admittedly, 3 did have a bit more ammo than I think it should've, but it definitely had more of a horror feel to it than 4 or 5 did. As for RE2, I suppose my opinion is a bit biased since I adore that game and find it to be the best in the series, though I do agree that the REmake definitely has the highest level of tension and creepiness.

Don't get me wrong, I don't disagree that RE1-CVX were scarier, because they certainly were. It was though in part thanks to the control scheme though. As the characters became more reactive and less sluggish the games have gotten less scary. A lot of the fear I felt in the old RE games were me thinking "TURN AROUND FASTER FASTER OMG RUN" or "HURRY UP AND AIM HOLY SHIT TURN AROUND SHOOT HOLY SHIT RUN". Most of this happened during RE1 mind you. Addition of quick turn and dodging (which they later took out) made RE2 and 3 less scary because it was easier to run away, escape, evade and in general shoot stuff. At least I think 2 had quick turn.

REmake was definitely the scariest game of the series (tied with the first time I played 1). Combination of tank controls, persistent enemies, a real lack of ammo (and a real need to use it - I remember my pacifist runs lol) combined with that perfect RE1 atmosphere. I loved it.

edit: Just watched trailer.

Chris and Leon? Sign me up. Motherfucking power team for sure.

Holy fuck, Boulder Puncher and 30-feet Gap Jumper both in one game?! Scary or not I'm sold!

From the trailer it looks like they're trying to design Leon's scenario with a solo, more horror centric feel and Chris's being more action oriented.

Wondering if the co-op element has to do with that other guy and the girl he's with.

(also quickturn was introduced in 3, 1 and 2 had the same scheme)

Was that blond girl the president's daughter from 4?

WHAT THE FUCK! Just seeing this shit after a miserable day at work. DAY 1!!

Now the question everyone is wondering.

Did Capcom make it? Or was it outsourced? Also Leon and Chris in one game? Broooomance.

Edit; looks like Capcom is making it!! Hot damn. Also; I am 95% that was Ashley. Sounded like the same VA. Also that chick Leon worked with on the radio was in the trailer as well.

The oven man in RE4 should be the mvp in that game. After getting so comfortable within the game, and then having that dude out of nowhere bust out the oven door made me scream then laugh my ass off after.

Also fuck what anyone says, RE4 had the best fucking boss fights in the series. That one boss where you had to escape the cage while he's chasing after you was one of the most tense fights in the entire series for me.

REMake is good but once you realize that all you have to do is knife the normal zombies in the knees, you can stockpile so much ammo that you never feel like you can't handle anything in the game after you get passed Lisa Trevor.

I have so much I wanna say because I grew up with this series but im using my phone and its a bit inefficient.

Want another Mercenaries mini-game as fun as the one that was on RE4. God that shit occupied me for hours.

Cool another FPS game.
