So after putting zero effort into RE3 Remake and making some shitty multiplayer spinoff no one asked for, Capcom are now making RE battle royale.

:deadtroll:

RIP Capcom renaissance, welcome back Crapcom.

The fact that VR is even an option means it's going to be a first-person game, i.e. it will be drastically different from original RE4. Which is a good thing I guess.

Depends how they pull it off. It'll have to be significantly different for sure. They can't just make it first-person without drastically changing the encounters among other things.

DMC2 source code?
Does that mean they're planning a reimagined version of that game?

that doesn't mean anything. Capcom had DMC2 source code, and it was stolen.

well, it's better than RE3R-style "reimagining" that pales in comparison to original. The only way for RE4 remake to be good is to become a drastically new game.

Well it means that now DMC2 can be openned up to modding
Provided the leakers release the code...

Agree on the 1st part, but on the 2nd...
REmake 4 could be good if they give it the REmake treatment - i.e. leave the game as it is and just update the grapichs, maybe perhaps tweak 1/2 gameplay elements...


EDIT:
Best thing would be to not do a Remake at all and just pay this guy to include his work on a "remastered" version.

The first remake also expanded the story without making too many drastic changes. Definitely a textbook example of how a remake should be done.

Yeah, every RE game has some degree of campiness to it. The only thing I really disliked about RE4 was the weapon merchant.

The funny part is that fans are raging about Anderson RE movies where those movies are less goofy than games, saying those are not really "RE" movies. I am like. Nigga did you even play one game before saying that ? Does mutated zombie with rocket launcher and minigun hunting some small town cop makes sense to you ?

Resident Evil 8 spoilers ahead:

(Probably not much a spoiler when you think about it in the context of how RE7 played out and certain mechanics in the game, but anyway they found the following information in the animatics folder's file names)

There are animation files with the title of "Secondary_after_Ethan" and "Ethan_death_Primary"

Combine that with the fact that there have been leaks from playtesters that there is
a completely new female character you control in a portion of the game
and it seems like that could be it for ole
Ethan
.

https://www.reddit.com/r/GamingLeak...om_leak_archive_78_preview_re8_spoilers_re_4/

Kinda weird if it all shakes out like it seems it will.
I get that they want to have character deaths to up the stakes, and at the same time they can't kill Chris, but it just seems like a waste to kill Ethan off since 1) it won't really matter to most players so it's not really going to be an effective use, and 2) i was growing to like Ethan. Just seems like a waste. Also the female character that was playtested is apparently completely new, it's not Mia or anything.

EDIT: Oh also RE 4 remake is definitely happening, though that's hardly news now I guess. RE 4 remake seems like diminishing returns to me, it already played like a "modern" game.

A first person RE4make would be blasphemous. That game revolutionized third person shooters. Making it a FPS would be spitting in the face of all that is good and decent. If Crapcom does this I will disown them entirely and never look back.

Apparently, Village is a live-service game, complete with battle passes and weapon skins :negative:

Eh, all this appears to be related to its MP portion so I can't say it's something to be worried about overmuch.
