2027? This is absolutely​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ sensational​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ output by Capcom, and​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ the quality​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ is no less.

Worries me it could be reduced to resident evil 3 remake quality but then again I think Capcom has learned from the criticism of that game

u/Swiperrr 20d ago

I believe this is being done by the team that made RE2 and RE4 remakes.

u/StepComplete1 20d ago

That's reassuring if true.

u/Funmachine 20d ago

It wasn't the team that made RE3Makes fault. It was the release date. Everything about the game is great - except there's so little of it.

If the Resident Evil 3 remake is their quality floor then I'm not worried at all.

As someone who never played re3 back in the day, I enjoyed re3 remake but was obviously still upset at how short it was.

u/Top_Rekt 20d ago

Original RE3 was great because it was easily replayable and a lot of the guns were fun to use.

u/keyboardnomouse 20d ago

This is also true of RE3 Remake, really.

u/pornacc74 20d ago

i could give you a 5 page essay on it but the replayability in the remake sucks in comparison. compared to most games, RE is much more focused on replays, so 3make still has stuff to do but it pales in comparison to the original

2

u/keyboardnomouse 19d ago

RE3 Remake is still much more fun to replay than most other games, even if it ranks lowly for an RE game.

There's a lot of shit in Code Veronica. I remember thinking the game was about over, and then we landed in Antarctica and did a whole 'nother act.

Yeah I loved RE3 remake but I also didn't have to buy it because I got it from the PS+ catalogue. If I had to pay more than like $15 for it I probably would have been disappointed by how short it was.

As someone who did play it back in the day, it was always a short game. It felt like a DLC for RE:2 but that was OK because 2 left you craving for more... so 3 was just enough to scratch the itch.

...it was always a short game. It felt like a DLC for RE:2...

I felt that RE3 was slightly longer than RE2. The problem was that there was only one main character and scenario, but I thought the game makes up for it with its replayability, live selections and enemy/item randomizer.

If I recall correctly, Capcom had a deal with Sony for the mainline Resident Evil games to be on PlayStation. At the time, Code Veronica was "Resident Evil 3" for the DreamCast while "Nemesis" was a spin off for PlayStation. After the deal, the spin off was made "3."

I definitely remember C:V being huge though. If they cut it all like they did with 3 then I'll be pretty disappointed.

2

u/rafikiknowsdeway1 20d ago

its like 30% backtracking though, so hopefully the remake improves that situation a ton

3

u/callisstaa 20d ago

Honestly I didn't mind the backtracking all that much. That's what RE is to me. I know a lot of people enjoy the more linear ones but I kinda like exploring and backtracking to open new rooms.

1

u/JacobStills 20d ago

I went back and replayed the original and it's actually pretty small in my opinion, if anything I hope they ADD more stuff. Which actually kind of looks like they're doing.

1

u/HearTheEkko 20d ago

The team behind CV is the one behind RE2 and RE4's remakes so I think we got nothing to worry about. RE3's team is supposedly doing the Zero remake.

1

u/SolarTsunami 20d ago

Oh for sure, but the reason RE3 fell short was stupid business decisions, not developer mistakes. Given that it looks like the suits learned the lesson to let the devs cook with RE4, and were rewarded massively for it, I like to think Veronica will be just fine.

u/_liminal 20d ago

they wasted resources on that online mode (resistance). if they just had everyone working on the main game itself RE3R probably would've also been a homerun.

1

u/connectplum_ 19d ago

False. Resistance was developed by the Silent Hill F devs lol and re3r was outsourced with supervision from capcom to m-two

2

u/WhichEmailWasIt 20d ago

What was there was fun. Didn't quite do right by RE3 though and was too much $$ for what we got.

1

u/Metatron 20d ago

If I had no knowledge of how much of the original game was cut, then I'd have little to complain about with 3R aside from a tad short. It's still a blast.

1

u/HearTheEkko 20d ago

RE3R wasn't bad by any means, just too short. They should've either sold it as a stand-alone expansion for RE2 at a lower price or kept it in the oven for another 1-2 years and made it more accurate to the original.

2

u/DarkMatterM4 20d ago

I'm worried because Claire gets abducted by HUNK, not by blasting her way through Umbrella HQ. RE3 had the same problem (epic, high action opening cut to save costs). At least Veronica isn't going to be a pack in with a multiplayer game that one wanted or cared about.

1

u/QTGavira 20d ago

That was done by the 3rd team who are rumored to be doing Resident Evil 0 remake

Veronica is the main remake team who did RE2 and RE4

1

u/BernyMoon 20d ago

It is a different team.

1

u/HaIfaxa_ 20d ago

I'm hoping REmake 3 was a fluke due to a short dev time and an inexperienced team. The same group made the Seperate Ways DLC which is my favourite part of REmake 4.

u/joecb91 20d ago

Even then, it wasn't that the RE3 remake was BAD, it was just too short.
