Rely on Horror: The staff I interviewed explained that with Resident Evil 6, the company tried to bring new life into the franchise. According to the company, people were slowly, but surely growing tired of the classic Resident Evil formula. Slowly walking through zombie-infested houses, awkward aiming, forced camera-angles had to go and with Resident Evil 6 they wanted the series to become a more modern and fluent experience, while of course still maintaining core-elements.

Who was getting tierd of that, seriously it was the main thing about RE which added to it's scary/horror elements.
You know just because people want to go back to it's roots dosen't mean we automaticaly want the fixed camera angles back. The new over the shoulder gameplay in RE4 was fine, they just needed to add a little bit more horror which they could of easily done, look at the Lost in Nightmares RE5 DLC when your walking around the mansion in the beginging I felt like I was playing a RE remake but with RE4s gameplay.
"while of course still maintaining core-elements."
...seriously....where was the core elements of RE in RE6, they were non exsistent.
"Leon’s campaigns is more classic survival-horror"
...no
"Jake does a lot of sneaking and stealth"
...just no
Chris and Jakes play a like and Leons sections are basicaly what RE5 would be like in a darker enviroment.
"Overall the message was that they strongly believed that the company produced a quality product that innovated the series "
LOL...how ignorant
Were was the innovation in RE6 it was a generic third person over the top action game and a very badly done one to be honest. Everything we saw in the game had been done before.
"and they hoped that people would accept it for what it is"
Accept a very badly done RE game which is average at best...yeah I'm not a sucker who is going to let you off again Capcom, you need to learn from your mistakes.
nobody said "you know what, I wish resident evil was more like modern shooters" NOBODY ASKED FOR THAT!
It's like online modes which used to be great but then COD gets to the developers and they make the online COD like
Killzone did it with Killzone 3
Uncharted did it with Uncharted 3
Resistance 3 did it
Battlefield is getting similar now
Medal of Honour
Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six and even Brink had COD like elements
I could go on...developers need to stop trying to be like another game because all they are doing is ruining the game in the process and ticking off their fanbase
I mean look what greed has done to something like Overstrike...it's now a bland, generic, third person co-op game called FUSE
EDIT
Oh by the way loving the disagrees above...some people can't handle the truth
Want to know something...if you put up with Capcoms crap then you'll get crap.
he have the best campaign from all and yes brought back some classic moments.
Is the good
Stop hate
People should at least rent it, and if they like it they should buy it :). The final game is a lot better than the 2 demos.
TIP: Change the camera speed from 5 to 1.
"while of course still maintaining core-elements."
like dark atmosphere, jumpy moments, survival horror "Leon and Jake's campaigns" puzzle solving, characters....yeah all there
"Leon’s campaigns is more classic survival-horror"
if classic means RE4 then definitely yes.
"Jake does a lot of sneaking and stealth"
yup it has the survival and tension elements.
that said, RE6 borrowed a heavy influence from west in terms of gameplay (i think it's because alot of ppl complained about the controls, stiff gameplay and not being able to shoot while moving) but it's still a great game.... Capcom and Japanese devs in general need to stop cater to the west
hey Carl_Shocker, aka Whitelightning aka MikeCosgrove "the guy who called out cgoodno!"
....you need to stfu, you're repeating and copy pasting your shit on every Capcom or RE related article.....haters like you will be the reason for Capcom to give the franchise to the west like they did with DMC, ppl complained about Lost Planet 2 Capcom hired a western dev, ppl complained about DMC4, again, Capcom hired a western dev, i don't want RE franchise to suffer the same fate!
Your the one who defended the crap out of this game before release and Capcom, you even said at one point it would get amazing scores....and look whats happened.
To keep defending something which has done terrible and a corrupt money grabbing company...well your the one living in denial.
See the thing is j-blaze your in the MINORITY here, RE6 was a crap game and you have to accept that because people like you is the reason why Capcom treats us like crap.
"hey Carl_Shocker, aka Whitelightning aka MikeCosgrove "the guy who called out cgoodno!"
LOL....oh good one, try to call me a bunch of past users because you want to try and get me banned. Are you serious...if I was a duplicate account I would of been banned day 1...I've been on here over a month, especialy if I called out a bloody mod.
"you need to stfu, you're repeating and copy pasting your shit on every Capcom or RE related article"
You know what I find hilarious about this...you do the same except you praise it. So are you trying to say that anything negative about your precious game isn't allowed, sorry but I'm not the only one doing it, take a look around
Honestly some people...totaly delusional, it's like your living in your own world sometimes.
Whats the point of creating a series then? Whats the point of setting a fanbase? You may love this new RE formula but what will happen if lets say in 10 years sports game are the boon and we se RE 9 turned into a shameless racing game with a cannonical continuity.
I dont give a crap about CoD because im not a fan of the series but we RE cant ignore a 10 year awesome series geting pissed on.
RE6 failed because its not a RE game.
Core elements my ass, the horror, ammunition saving, fixed healths, zombies is what made the RE series awesome.
Im tired of TPS so i take SH games any day.
If a company gets tired of a franchise single most unique selling point (Read: survival horror) then do not make the game. Why the hell did the game have "Resident Evil" on the packaging if their intent was making something entirely new? I don't get it.
"The staff cautiously proceeded to explain, that they hope everybody will judge the game by its own merit and not that of previous installments."
I must say then if that's the case how about we call it something other than Resident Evil (Biohazard)? Since well you know were not suppose to think about the previous games....
I totally agree with you about Lost in Nightmares, too. It felt like a remake of the original RE; it was tense, interesting, enjoyable, and I was on edge from start to finish. I just wish it lasted a bit longer!
RE6 really disappointed me. Its ambition was admirable, but its execution was deeply unsatisfying. If I wanted an action game with 'mass-market appeal', I'd have bought one of the many existing TPS titles already available. I wanted a Resident Evil game. RE6 was not it.

We wanted the call of duty fanbase to buy our game the end.
edit: Article was barely worth reading.
Least i have popcorn though.
this is all my problems with this generation summed up in one sentence.

I blame the movies personally, there AWFUL, all of them, but, they keep making them, people out there are paying real money to see or buy these AWFUL films, there the audience Capcom are going for, "the easily pleased" market
Why bother using your imagination in making a decent, thought out game, for a lot of the consumers out there are not going to have......an imagination of there own, just give them anything, theyll buy it
Res 6 will sell MILLIONS, despite the negative reviews, I doubt ill ever even rent it
Whaaaaaaat ??? first episodes got better metacritic scores than RE5 and RE6, especially remakes on GameCube i never get enough of them.
"When asked if people were judging it because it was not like the original from 1996, the staff cautiously proceeded to explain that they hope everybody will judge the game by its own merit and not that of previous installments."
WTF ??? If we compare it to the old episodes RE6 sucks and if we compare it to action games from this gen RE6 still sucks. What do they want me to compare it with ? Barbie game ? I think RE6 will still suck!
RE doesn't need to be reinvented it needs to go back to the roots like they did with RE Zero. fixed cameras, crazy very realistic atmosphere, not too much action, puzzles, keys, maps to find... I loved that idea and nobody does that these days.
Absolutely nothing wrong with that, but they did not keept the core-elements there, and thats why it's getting hate. It's a well deserving hate, imo.
Also, why did they remove alt costumes from use in the campaign? This is the one of the first RE games to not have alt costumes in the main game. Mercenaries has it available, but it's still BS
p.s how can something be scary if this world has corrupted and disturbed our minds its nearly impossible unless things randomly pop up of no where besides that its hard to make horror games or films.
guys just imagine you play dead space 1 and replace the Necromorphs creatures to zombie and imagine when you enter dark room and you hear liker steps and voice . how great atmosphere will be .
and if we want to talk about action and emotional things just look and hear the warning in this video

crapcom your talent is zero and we will not support you.
just leave this game alone this is shinji mikami game .
you killed and buried this game by your fools ideas .
They had to change, but probably went in the wrong direction too fast for the old-school RE fans. They want new fans, and some new players wouldn't be akin to that old RE formula, so it's a catch-22 for them. Gotta do things differently, but then you alienate your loyal fans (who you most likely will never be able to fully please).
However, as I've said before, I'm enjoying this game enough to look passed any issue listed here. Nobody is forcing anyone to soak this game in and love it...but it's worth a try.
It's called Resident Evil Capcom it's part of a franchise. When you have a game that's part of a franchise it's expected be better than the last game. If it's not then it's bad. It's like they have forgotten this and expect everyone to like whatever shit they spew.
