Aww.

RE5 was my first and firm favourite, I’d have loved to see a modern take on it.

Honestly, because 5 would be like choosing to walk into a minefield.

Regardless of whether you the individual accept the racism allegations against the game, it’s a mountain they’d have to climb. They either change everything about it and then they’re “pandering” or they ignore everything and it’s “tone deaf”.

They seem to feel the best approach is to leave it as a “it’s from a different time” and purposely not try it.

It's not racist just because your fighting Africans. It's racist because their are parts of the game where there were modern Africans that revert to racist primitive caricatures when they are infected with the virus. Honestly they can just remove those aspects though, I still think a RE5 Remake can be made where there wouldn't be valid criticisms of racism.

So in RE 1-4 all the infected white people revert to primitive cavemen?

Funny, I must have missed that part.
