Capcom's upcoming Resident Evil Requiem will bring players back to a familiar yet nightmarish setting for the series ninth main installment
These camera modes will feel like separate games due to the extensive work that has gone into preserving immersion. The developers have done delicate work to ensure gamers playing using either mode will feel fear.
Dunno why they disagreeing with you but even REVillage Gold edition Playthrough is whole different experience than the First person one. I’m a big RE enthusiast so I’m very happy that Capcom are looking to please fans of the two genre . It’s the best of both worlds Imo
Talk a bout a massive exaggeration.
The environments, enemies and especially story, will be the same regardless of which perspective is used.
Having said all that, 1st Person will always be superior in games like this, simply due to the far superior immersion. 1st person 'brings you into the game world' type of feel. 3rd person feels like 'you are following behind the person who is in the game world'
Then there is VR, which is 1st Person on steroids.
Regardless of which, saying it will 'feel like 2 separate games' is incredibly exaggerated and inaccurate.
Talks about a massive exaggeration then continues to talk about how experiencing a game in First Person feels so much different than in 3rd person, making the same point the article does.
damn son, nice one
xD
they were able to argue with themselves off their own original idea..
quite impressive
Resident Evil Requiem director claims Koshi Nakanishi Leon Kennedy is a "bad match for horror" but doesn't outright deny he's in the game.
maybe hes a bad match, cause hes been through some shit and isnt all too scared of anything anymore haha
True! But that probably still makes the comment that he's a "bad match" correct from a creative directors perspective.
He's in the game, it takes place in raccoon city like c'mon. I think we might see others as well at least i hope so, it's been so long without jill being in anything.
The game releases the month before they celebrate 30 years for the franchise. It would be insane not to have everyone return in some way. Though I hope this has a good deal of puzzle rooms and stuff like the originals. I enjoyed RE8, but after the castle there really wasn't anything to the puzzle solving.
They are probably leading us on a bit, it’s Raccoon City, Leon, Claire, Jill, Carlos, Sherry have massive ties to the incident so at least some of them are going to be included.
Besides gameplay wise it’s still up to us the player how he plays, if we get killed then that’s on us, not because he’s gotten soft.
I refuse to believe they want to go back to Raccoon City, closing up this arc 30 years later, use that kind of subtitle and not include any of the Raccon City survivors.
I'm not against new characters but over the many years Capcom seem to keep adding them when they could have been including legacy characters who we've not seen for a long time.
In RE5 Barry was originally going to be your partner before the whole racism row kicked off while Sheva was just basically just a contact they meet in Africa.
RE6 could have just been Leon and Claire if they wanted, especially since Sherry was in the game.
Revelations could have just been Chris and Jill together for the full game
Revelations 2 could have just been Claire and / or Barry
Rebecca has only been seen in the animated movies, Carlos has never been seen since RE3 and Billy has never came back since RE0. Jill has also been missing as the main character since Revelations and that was 2012. It's not like these characters are being milked.
Also if you think about it, why Grace? Why not just have her mother rather than killing her off? Alyssa wasn't super skilled, she was just a reporter and in 2025 she would have been a lot older which would have slowed her down adding onto that survival horror aspect they are going on about.
The issue is with most of their new characters from Helena, Piers, Jake and even Ethan, they just aren't that interesting at all.
Leon was already a professional by time of Resident Evil 4 and it was arguably one of the greatest games of all time. I wish Mikami would return to get Resident Evil back to undisputed glory.
RE4 was one of the least scariest games in the series and Leon was part of it. It's hard to make a scary RE game with a seasoned character whose already overcome the most extreme horror.
No dude, Koshi Nakanishi already did that way back in 2017 with one of the best entries in the series and he's back again and i can't wait to se what Requiem is about. I don't really want Mikami back cause his newest games sucked but i admit i would be interested to see what he could still and if he could still do something with the RE franchise.
EDIT: I forgot to add that not only he did that but he was the director of a game that single-handedly made Crapcom become Capcom again and then CapGOD, Re7 and the new RE Engine was so good it put them on the path of greatness that they are still on today, hell they're maybe even better today.
Resident Evil Requiem first story details, info about Grace Ashcroft and Raccoon City officially revealed.
People say this gen sucks etc etc but I have played as many games as I ever had and probably more. If days were longer I would play even more games. I still haven’t played some good games from last year.
Can’t wait for this one just I hope I can squeeze it in.
For sure, there are so many great games to play. This has been the best generation for me, there is always something to play and more games to come. The online that hates everything crowd has distorted alot of gamers view on reality.
Everything about RE9 so far sounds phenomenal. I can’t wait to see more and play it. RE franchise is GOATED.
