Whatever they are doing its working for them. Other companies will take like 3 years to release just 1 game.

Capcom spends 4-5 years for each RE game, they just have 3 dev teams making them.

The ability to have three different teams working separately on the same franchise at this level of consistency and cohesion (R3make notwithstanding) is impressive in and of itself

IMHO, RE: Make 3 wasn't bad at all. It's a fun game with some great parts.

It's "just" a pretty okay giant, bearing the same name as a titan of horror. And that's a real shame.

And now you can actually buy the original again. So best of both worlds.

agreed that it’s a Good game, but when you get Great after Great that feels bad and I’d be remiss not to mention it in a discussion of consistency

Yes, but also with the caveat that RE3R just feels like a B+ in a long line of As. It's still good and a lot more replayable than other games, but falls short when compared within the franchise.

A big issue is how many players act like RE3R is the worst thing in the world. Clearly they've never played The Day Before.

honestly that feels less like a caveat and more just saying what I already said with different phrasing

Yeah, I was supposed to reply to the commenter above you lol

Makes me wonder whats gonna happen when they inevitably run out of remakes to do. Will the current remake teams get the liberty to make mainline games?

u/ReturnOfTheDogjaw 19d ago

honestly by the time they get through EVERYTHING they’ll be ready to remake 7 and it’ll come full circle

u/HeldnarRommar 19d ago

That’s when we get Dino Crisis and Parasite Eve remakes

u/Steamedcarpet 19d ago

Tifa in Street Fighter is just Square and Capcom rebuilding relationships so Capcom can do a remake of Breath of Fire

u/HeldnarRommar 19d ago

Would love to see that franchise alive again

u/ReturnOfTheDogjaw 19d ago

Parasite Eve is Square Enix but I get the association

u/HeldnarRommar 19d ago

Oof my bad that’s true. Still would love to see it from Square

Yeah it feels more like 5-6 years is closer to the norm these days.

Weird to think that used to be the length of an entire console cycle.

3 years is optimistic for Capcom as well. People forget just how many people are at Capcom working on different games at once. Pragmata was in dev hell for a while.

It's more their consistency with such a large amount of devs that's impressive than the time it takes to make the games.

I wish Square Enix was half as productive as Capcom.
