Were crimsonheads a listed feature or did they leave that as a surprise for the players to find out about back when the game first launched? I really hope it was the latter because that'd be great. I love when games do things like that. There was this indie horror game called Monstrum where you're stuck on a ship and you have to escape from a monster and there are 3 possible monsters, each with their own strengths/weaknesses/tells, and for a long time they only had 2 possible monsters, some big hulking fire thing and some weird slithery-fucker that'd crawl around in vents. They had announced that they would be working on the third monster, a spectral thing that I don't think makes any sound and the only way to tell if it is nearby is if the electrical systems start going crazy (so lights flickering and the like). They ended up patching him into the game during one of their bugfixes and not telling the players about it so that people would get freaked the gently caress out when this brand new creature was chasing them down and they had no preparation for it.

Play Titanfall 2 and try not to think about how badly EA is going to gently caress over Titanfall 3 so they can gut Respawn and wear its skin like a suit.

No. The surprise was out instantly because of the internet of course (same with Eternal Darkness) but I don't even remember the game hinting at it. If you played the original you'll find it weird that zombies don't vanish when leaving the room then when you come back thinking it's safe it's suddenly not. It was a great surprise, just like Lisa and the big rear end Neptune.

Thank Video for Games on the phone. Im currently "training" to get a class B CDL. Today I'm sitting on a bus while someone else drive for 10 hours. FFV is a great game, but the Ios versions is not good.

The one thing I hated about all the old RE games was playing inventory roulette, beyond tedious to have only 6 slots sometimes, especially for tiny keys.

Okay, after taking everything said into consideration, I'll do TF2 (because it's short) and then probably Talos.

REMake was amazing, but it was the second RE game I shelved because I was a giant wuss and got too scared to play. This is embarrassing but when I was 17 I bought Resi 2 for the Dreamcast and eventually got my Mum to return it because I was too creeped out to play. I ended up getting REMake on GameCube but stopped playing after getting to the room with the coffin chained to the ceiling. I never actually finished it until I got the PS4 version

RE0 had a few good ideas and a whole host of dumb ones and the game feels like a worse version of RE3 as a result. The frogs were cool, but I feel like they only show up in one area.

How is Zxeno pronounced? Also I have only ever played 1 resident evil game and that was the first Revelations for the 3DS. What was RE0's problem? I think I remember reading stuff about the inventory system being stupid and requiring you to drop stuff on the ground or something but I might be confusing that with something else.

FirstAidKite posted:How is Zxeno pronounced? On top of that there's no item boxes meaning you have to drop items in rooms which sounds interesting at first, but in practice you end just picking the most convenient room to leave items in anyways so it just makes things more of a hassle. On top of that there's just really not a lot to the story even by Resident Evil standards, and most of the game just doesn't have much going on. The most interesting area is the train section, and that opens up the game and isn't too long so its all downhill from there. Also Revelations 1 is one of the weaker games in the series tbh, though a little better than RE0. Raxivace fucked around with this message at 00:36 on Jan 5, 2018 |

Here's how I rank the games fwiw: REmake > RE2 > RE4 > RE5 = RE6 > Revelations 2 > Code: Veronica > RE7 > Revelations > Survivor > RE3 > RE0 > Dead Aim > Survivor 2 The only one I'm not really sure how to include is RE1 since while its rough around the edges it did basically set the template for the classic games.

I like RE0 more than most people seem to but I guess it's one of those things where it's a lot more fun on subsequent playthroughs when you already know when you'll need each item (I think the hookshot screws a lot of people over on their first run) also it's cool getting to play as rebecca who is clearly the most powerful member of S.T.A.R.S. since she does two mansions in like 48 hours

It's the first time I can recall playing a sequel and thinking "this is much worse than what came before it" at the age of like 12 where every new thing is good to you.

i liked Nemesis as a kid but it was really weird. the giant worm sequence? the hospital? all the poo poo with the mercenaries? it was all bizarre. i also think the b-story of RE2 did such a better job of a hulking unkillable menace. Mr X was nightmare fuel for me as a kid.

RE3 had a dodge button so you could actually fight Nemesis, who was a cool idea, but the gunpowder poo poo is dumb. looking at that list really drives home how inconsistent the series is. what even *is* a Resident Evil game? It became a plethora of things after Code Veronica. I'd be okay with the current road of making new 1st person games alongside remasters of stuff like RE2 and 3.

RE0 has the "inside of a train" setting going for it which is criminally underused and such a natural fit for a horror game . I'd love to play something that took inspiration from Alien: Isolation where you're exploring a moving train and moving from car to car while being stalked by some singular relentless enemy -- the linear series of rooms and the high speed movement and the sounds of the engine all come together to be really freaky in my head

Nemesis was a big deal when it came out, because Resi 2 was huuuuuuuuuuuge. I think back and the Resident Evil series used to be massive (e.g. Dreamcast getting Code Veronica was a big deal) then it kind of faded for a bit, came roaring back with 4 and then faded again... I think 7's doing well, yeah? And as far as unplayed Resi's on my list I've got to do 0, Rev 2 and 7.

i recall liking RE0 a whole lot (the fact that I finished it alone says much), more than Code: Veronica. that said i recall almost nothing about it other than who you play as and the train.
