    The sole reason I like RE 4, 5 and 8 its because of the treasures and gun upgrades. I like 8 the most as it combined the gun parts upgrade from RE 2 remake and RE 4 and 5 stats upgrade.

    I feel Wesker's characterisation would benefit more from being explored in a Code Veronica remake rather than Resi 5. Maybe as that game's answer to separate ways.
    Downsizing the number of QTEs would certainly be an improvement, and the inventory system could do with some work.

      Code Veronica is far more deserving of a remake than RE5. Better story, better characters, better music just overall a better game.

      ​@@RainCoatCultWhile I feel like RE5 is fine the way it is. It's not perfect but I think they need to take the time to step back. To remake some other RE games. I wouldn't mind that game getting one, it'll sell decently but not the level as the other ones. Regardless, I want to see remakes of other games. Take a break from the main line games.

  • @kirbles2035
    @kirbles2035 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    I only want the villains to have more depth only if Wesker is still hilarious. To this day RE5 Wesker is one of my favourite villains ever. As to whether or not RE5 is going to get remade, given how divisive it is, I've always thought it'd make more sense to remake DMC1. DMC can't really go anywhere storywise right now, so remaking that first game always made sense to me instead of DMC6, especially since Hideki Kamiya said he wanted to remake it.

  • @IamHat
    @IamHat 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I am replaying Re5 right now and i really need better controls it was fine with me when it came out, it was fine with me when the Xbox one dropped and it was fine with me 3 years ago.
    Idk what about me changed but i honestly need there to be an either/or relationship with guns and melee.
    Guns feel good for a third person game that old and melee is hilariously awesome. But the whole stun them with guns and hit the contextual Melee button doesn't make any sense to me anymore and i misremembered the game i thought this was the Re you could go melee only

      You know that you don't need to shoot it right? You can just yank it off. Unless you're wasting magnum rounds on it, it really doesn't make that big of a difference. Even then, you shouldn't be risking it, because a single shot from a magnum will kill her. Literally the only times I've fucked that up is when I try to shoot it off.

  • @DanteMasaru
    @DanteMasaru 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    How about we leave out the boulder punching completely? Just a suggestion. Totally agree on Sheva being more fleshed out, but considering how well they fleshed out Marvin Branaugh, I've faith Capcom won't come up short in this department. Yes, Lost in Nightmares would make a great prologue for the game and it's quite possible you nailed that one.
    There's also the inventory system, while not that bad of a system, it's a serious step back from RE4, so I would appreciate a REwork. Finally, Wesker was more fleshed out in Code: Veronica, which is the next game I think Capcom will REmake and possibly flesh out Wesker even more along with some other characters. Also, Code: Veronica is in desperate need of a REmake 'cause that game hasn't aged very well.

    People think they want horror and when they get it they call it boring and slow. People enjoyed Resident Evil 4 in spite of the very little horror that was in it. If they do this to RE5 and make it all at nighttime it will hardly be the same game anymore, and for the worst. I'd like to think capcom would find out how to do it but the fans of RE are kind of bipolar and ask for things they don't really want, so I have a funny feeling a remake for RE5 won't be for the people that liked the game but for the people who didn't, which sucks because its one of the best selling RE games.

      But we already have RE1 remake?? Imo Re5 would benefit the most out of any of the games from the remake treatment(fleshing out characters, improved gameplay, etc). The others have either already been remade or still hold up pretty well to this day. (Except 0, but that game always felt kinda off in the grander narrative.) Though storywise I guess a CV remake would make sense first. Still would prefer 5 tho since imo CW holds up better than 5 these days.

      By the weirdos. Probably cross dressing. Simply because they will praise it as a trans statement, use it push garbage. Ignoring the underlying mental condition of the character. But more representation.
      They probably would still scream racism, even though the territory is different. Either way. They will cry. Didn't stop them then and won't stop them now. I could see they trying make sheeva out to be the first black female badass in all of entertainment history... Ignoring what reality is.
