The Resident Evil series sucks now. The recent games actually feel like bad parodies now

Have you played RE 2 remake?

I really like horror games!!! Here is the best list I believe https://bestgamingthings.com/list-of-the-best-horror-games-2019/. Do you know any other cool horror games?

The Evil within games and the Resident evil Revelations series are my favorite. Little nightmares is also a cool horror side- scroller.

Characters have rigid animations for both movement and interacting with the environment which during a few sections can feel less the player faults and more the engine giving the player bad luck, hitbox detection's are odd, and NPCs commonly get stuck in the environments are just some of what I remember at the top of my head.

Weapons also feel like they should have more weight and impact.

I let a lot of this slide simply because Revelations are cheap budget Resident Evil games, and are hardly asking full retail price.

I don't understand any of these! The game played great for me! It has one of the best mechanics and controls, far better than 'full budget' titles like RE 5 and RE 6 which had some big flaws. The Revelation series is amazing and the first Revelations game is the only 10/10 game in the entire series, flawless.

I would state however if you cannot really mention what makes ORC good outside of "I don't care" you are not really making a good case/ discussion for that game outside of a pretence notion.

I think I already did:

ORC was a great game with a great atmosphere, very well-designed enemies, bosses, and boss battles.

It also has some really nice, memorable, and atmospheric soundtracks. The monster design is great. The bosses and boss battle designs are fantastic, from every aspect. The Crimson heads are far better than the ones in RE remake. The game also has very high replay value.

And I never said it was flawless. I mentioned it had some flaws before. I personally didn't feel comfortable performing melee attacks, so I totally forgot about the melee, pretending it doesn't exist! And I didn't like the fact that you couldn't carry more than two guns and one of them had to be a pistol which has never been my weapon of choice.

The main protagonists were unrelatable and forgettable too. I also experienced some crashes and unresponsiveness when using some special abilities.

And you're not the only one saying they experienced glitches in the game. Some others said that too, but I don't remember encountering any of those funny glitches people talked about. The loading screens weren't long either. And the framerate wasn't 60 all the time, but it was fine and felt quite smooth. I played on PC, though. I also don't know a game named 'Socom'.

@Macutchi I like your profile picture!

Revelations 2 is a great game and enjoy quite a lot about it despite handling really clunky

I don't understand which part of the game was 'clunky' for you! It played great for me! The game has fantastic mechanics and controls.

The fanbase majority agree it's a game better forgotten.

ORC wasn't even a Resident Evil game

I don't care about what 'the fanbase' say. They also praise a heavily flawed game like RE remake. ORC was a great game with a great atmosphere, very well-designed enemies, bosses, and boss battles. It wasn't flawless, but I played it a lot and enjoyed it a lot and it's among my favorite RE games.

realistically we as humans can not carry it all and putting that on the player is a choice, of what to carry and when. Which adds to the tension of self-doubt.

The original remakes strengths to me is its drastic tension/ horror vibes, Crimson Heads and choosing which ones to burn has real weight on your choices. Characters dying which alters your playthrough adds to that choice, and lastly the puzzles, which to me older Resi game bosses are like puzzles, as they have a very clear concept how to come to the conclusion.

I agree about the inventory. You can't expect to have an unlimited inventory, especially in a survival horror game, but at least it's supposed to be reasonable, right? RE remake just wastes your time by forcing you to repeatedly go back to the room with the item box and it's just annoying. RE 2 remake does it a lot better. The inventory makes much more sense in that game.

Have you ever played Revelations 2? It has the best inventory system in the series. You can even put an item down and pick it up later if you want to. It's very helpful. I expected RE 2 remake to do the same, but it didn't. Revelations 2 was such a great game. Both Revelations games are fantastic. I believe the first Revelations game is the best in the entire RE series.

I also agree about the puzzles. I personally liked RE remake's puzzles and found them entertaining. They weren't very easy. They weren't very hard either. I liked the puzzles and actually enjoyed them, but unfortunately, puzzles are among the very few things that game did right. The bosses and boss battles were awful (and the camera made them even worse). I liked Lisa Trever, though. I'm also a fan of Crimson heads, but Operation Raccoon city is the game that made the best version of them.

GhostWire Tokyo seems interesting but that trailer honestly did nothing for me. Would love some gameplay

Eitherway I hope Nakamura Ikumi chans first game as director goes well, she has the portfolio to back such a project and Mikami Shinji san seems to believe in her vision. And that worked out well when a different person directed TEW2.

No Caption Provided

Hadn't heard of it before! That sounds interesting! I hope it'll be a good game. And Nakamura is the director? She was the concept artist for The evil within. I have some interview videos of her talking about the creatures' design on my board. I can post a link for you if you're interested.

And yes, Mikami wasn't the director of TEW 2, but the game turned out to be great.

@henrythefifth: You think D00M III, heavily flawed game that repeats the corner Imp spawn over one hundred times has better scares than the two Remake Resident Evil games?

. . .alright.

I haven't played any Doom games. I'm not a fan of first-person shooters, but I've heard people praising Doom games!

Also, I've played both RE remakes. RE 2 remake was awesome, but the first remake was a pain, especially because of the fixed camera and character movements. I also hate auto-aim (which is inevitable in a game with fixed camera). The ridiculous inventory and lack of autosaves didn't help either. It was really a chore to play. I found it frustrating more than anything else. Haven't played any other fixed-camera RE games.

Not a fan of those horror games where you just run and hide and wait.

I agree. I want to fight and kill!

@RSM-HQ said:

Good taste, TEW and Resi games are some of my personal favorites. However I recommend not using a forum called Games Discussion to tell people to go elsewhere. Not really the purpose.

That's what Off-Topic is for.

I do believe the rules have a no advertising policy here. So keep that in mind dood.

Thanks! And you're probably right. It might be better if I post it there. I noticed this site has very few boards and not even a single board for discussing horror! This is my first time posting here. I'm not familiar with the rules.

Well, I have a weak heart ( a real medical condition) so I cannot play really scary games in case I get heart attack.

Sorry to hear that.

It's about all kinds of horror games, any horror game you like can be discussed. I'm personally a survival horror fan with The evil within games and some of the Resident evil games being my favorites.

I'm also a fan of side-scrollers.
