Resident evil will return to it's roots

[yurieu]

RE4 could be a good horror game, walking on a forest fighting crazy dudes with axes and chainsaws. that sells!

anyway, there is no point in discuss horror factor in RE4, its an action game, declared, and maybe its one of the first games of a new breed of super-dude-against-an-army game.

anyway, it was a great sucess. now, there are so many other games with better use of the 3rd person shooting. but RE still trying to include the Bollywood action.

i agree with the other folk who said they should try the 3.5 system. but my idea can change if i play the Revelaitons. but im still thinking Revelations is about an ugly jill and a russian fighting regenerators.

There is nothing more frightening than seeing a trained, complete expert being thrown into a situation where he/she is out of his/her depth. As you say, that sells. xD Ugly Jill? This is the only iteration of Jill I've found even slightly good looking. *waits for Jill fans to descend upon me with righteous fury*

Yeeeeeeeaaaaaaaoughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Good? Jill in Revelations good?

YOU SHALL NOT PASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This kind of feeling RE4 captured well. as we can see, even the police officers made it great. i think RE6 tried to catch the global outbreak, and it could work good with all the characters, but the technical issues and some nonsense BS ruined it, not to mention the ugly graphics. making it uglier than RE5 its a foolishness.

so, its time for a smaller game, beautiful, serene, bucolic, low paced... they must make the gamer feel terrified or relaxed, not QTE-Punch-QTE-punch. the next gen is coming and they will be able to use 3rd parties engines at almost full powah.

and, for the hardcore and to hearth warm everyone, they should make a spin off with static cam.

I shall pass. I shall indeed. XD

I agree on the setting but I like the occasional QTE- I think RE4 did it just right, and the knife fight was great. Of course, you could negate damn near all QTE gripes if you added a feature that disabled the QTE sequences after the first playthrough. As for the static cam, they could totally implement that into an over the shoulder game. Like in a sequence where you're drugged, or flashbacks. xD

I wish CapCom would take Resident Evil 4 beta, aka Resident Evil 3.5, and make a new character and fix the story line. I like the hallucination thing that happens to Leon, because any inanimate thing, like a Stuffed animal or a doll, can come to life to attack Leon. The hook man character looked scary too, he is a perfect enemy for Resident Evil Genre.

I think if they get talented people, Capcom could make something good with the beta material.

I wouldn't want them to change the character, they could still release it as an alternate Biohazard and then continue from where it left, they just need to finish it 100% and release if for consoles and we're all gonna be happy !

Interesting idea at the face, but then you realize that you're giving capcom an alternate timeline to work on... the mind reels at how many ways to Sunday they could fuck it up. I can even imagine a crossover, some rip in the fabric of time where everyone teams up with their alternate universe doppelgangers to stop a reborn Wesker from becoming King of all Dimensions using a new "insert letter here" virus. I would rage-weep so hard. xD

@news bot, heh they controlled cerberus? That makes no sense lol. Tyrants, Hunters etc I can understand since they were biologically crafted but dogs were just like people, an accident. A licker would be closer to a mutant than anything else, aka let's see what happens when we inject this guy directly with the t virus. If lickers were controllable it would mean I could scoot down to the lab for an inhibitor gun and control every monster in site. Geez did I miss something or did resident evil throw all their lore out of the window?

It's all explained in the very first game in the series.

CERBERUS: If Cerberus is trained, it can be made to act on several commands at once.

HUNTER: Although intelligence is anthropoid degree, such as orangutans, they can understand and execute about ten kinds of commands through training.

TYRANT: In addition, its intelligence is high for an individual using the Clay Virus and includes a power of understanding almost equal to a human. It can carry out various commands more easily than the Hunter.

The Lickers in Damnation are controlled by the artificial Plaga, which is similar to control by a queen ant or bee.

Nothing in the series prevents horror from taking central stage again. Bioterrorism? Okay, change the angle from being a hardass soldier fighting monsters to some poor civilian bastard trying to survive them. You're also not bound by contract to use any older characters. Jill? Let's just say she retired after BH5. Chris? Stayed on for a bit, then retired. Jake hopefully died when a backflip went tragically wrong.

Tone down the budgets and make them smaller-scale horror-focused games with new characters in the same universe and timeline, if you really need to. There is absolutely no need to piss away 16 years of work on one of the most viable and consistent fictional universes in the industry.

Easy to see the lack of creativity and imagination in some people.

^ This. I still think that the characters we know and love should be there, but just as NPC's, doing stuff on their own in the background.

[EvilMarshy]

Yeah, it seems I missed it, well more like forgotten it, I haven't read the files of RE1 since my first play through.

I can't seem to concentrate yet this morning...

While I never cared about the story, I don't mind it going forward. It's the gameplay I would like rebooted. They could always keep RE going as is, since it's still popular and try a new IP that's close their original Alone in the Dark rip-off.

Something about Jill has definitely always been a little off...

[Wrathborne]

Different strokes, different folks.

I concur. Glad to find someone who agrees with me. XD

... Riiiighhht.

Plant 42 fans, enthuse yourselves.

[Akimbo]

I'll believe it when I see it.

They may find a way to bring back Umbrella into the storyline or they may just reboot it altogether, much like they did with DMC.

I wouldn't know what to think about a reboot, until they showed a trailer or something, but as long as they bring back the horror theme and make it less action orientated, then fair enough.
