All this marketing stuff is bullcrap. Capcom never did a “true” Resident Evil game that didn’t sell well. It went downhill just when they tried to add more action “hollywood-ish” stuff starting from RE5.
Then, take SquareEnix for example. FF went downhill since they started experimenting with FFX-2. Yeah, I know XIII still sold well enough, but it could be sooo much better if they just forgot their “innovation” bullshit and just kept delivering the same good old gameplays from FFVI-X era.
I have been playing Resident Evil since it first came out in 1996. I was 7 years old at the time. From the very 1st to the last. The only problem I have with the 4-6,ORC,Dead-Aim 1 and 2 is that it was too action-packed. There wasn’t a feel of horror behind any of them. More along the line like playing SOCOM games. Where was the horror? Where was the true fear at that we experienced from 1-3?
Maybe go back to the beginning and re-do that but add more fear, horror and down-right scare the F out of you genre back into Resident Evil. Then it will be selling by the tens of millions again.
Wow, you outright admitted to be a minor when you first played the game, and thankfully you did not try to mimics anything otherwise angry parents would have caused a stir, then the media caught wind of it and exaggerate it.
I’m glad that you only came out to say this when you are already an adult at 20 year-old because we’re currently living in a age where social medias is the power tool for SJWs or those feminist groups to abuse their “authorities”.
Didn’t everyone play Resident Evil in first grade back in the days?
You can’t really do with people want the same characters to still be in the series. Especially the ones that have had years of experience with everything that’s happened in through out the entire timeline. The same characters deal with all this crap on a daily basis now so nothing really scares them anymore. Surprise yes but not scare. But if you take out the same characters that have been in the series this whole time people end up bitching about that and its not the same without them. There really is no win win with the type of people that just have to bitch about every little thing in games now a days. I’ve played the Resident Evil series since it first came out and for me personally Im fine with how things have turned out. Being able to see the characters grow into what they are now and be all badass about it is great. I mean being in these situations has pretty much desensitized them to the point that its just another day pretty much.
Why does it have to be the same characters? Resident Evil 2 used new ones.
Opening up the series to a wide audience is why it went to fucking s♥♥t, morons.
