Jed Pressgrove from Fate of the Game says: "Resident Evil 6 was a critical and commercial failure. No one should feel sorry for poor Capcom, the company who sold us at least five versions of Street Fighter II. It’s simply unfortunate that a reasonably entertaining game like Resident Evil 6 was skewered by video game journalists and fans."

Hey Capcom I want a remake of Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 on Switch or, maybe Switch 2. I loved both of those games on GameCube.
Good. capcom and square enix were my two favourite developers and now it's just CapCom! Square enix keeps missing the mark, their sparks gone.
Dragon's Dogma 2 continues Capcom's hot streak of favorably reviewed games as the studio lands first on Metacritic's top publishers ranking.
Responding to a query about frame rate problems from IGN, Capcom said in a statement that performance issues on PC may be linked to the heavy amount of CPU demanded from NPCs in the game.
"In Dragon's Dogma 2, a large amount of CPU usage is allocated to each character and dynamically calculates the impact of their physical presence in various environments. In certain situations where numerous characters appear simultaneously, the CPU usage can be very high and may affect the frame rate," a Capcom representative told IGN. "We are aware that in such situations, settings that reduce GPU load may currently have a limited effect; however, we are looking into ways to improve performance in the future."
What a load of bull there blaming the npc load for there poor performance? the new hitman games has way more going on beyond that they are saying any pc cpu is not powerful enough?
In the article it is also stated a ign reviewr got motion sickness playing ps5/pc version but still enjoyed it? like wow if that was me i would knock it down alot and asked for a patch asap.
So those about to play thank denuvo get a barf bucket if your on pc play 720p because like cites skyline its going to be a unoptimized cpu mess.
Man those on series s/steam deck/rog ally rip :(
Project Zomboid a simple looking isometric game has a similar problem as the Zombies are CPU heavy. If this is the issue GPU tweeks won't do anything, you need less calculations per NPC or more static NPCs
Well that’s just great…looks like I’ll be holding off on buying this on PC until it’s fixed. If I wanted low frame rates I’d just buy it in console smh…
no
Yeah...ok then
Have you played the old RE games, if you did, did you actually like them for what they were. If so how can you like the new RE.
It ruined the franchise
resident evil 6 was far from underated. The game was an action hollywood style game. No sense of a "survival" theme. A tank chasing you down!? in a mansion... wtf happened to resident evil.
Resident Evil 6 is an awful game.
'Resident Evil 6:Worst Resident Evil Ever'
That headline is more fitting. I've completed every other Resident Evil that has been made, but couldn't bring myself to finish Res Evil 6, it was a mess. There's no justifying it I'm afraid, it was crap.
EDIT:I will add that if Capcom want inspiration on how to progress the survival horror genre they only need to look at the survival horror aspects of The Last of Us.
They need to remember why people were interested in the franchise to begin with, it wasn't for the big action scenes, it was for the scares.
