Yes! That's what i wanted. This 2020, re8 next gen.
Face scan of Sienna Guillory would have been perfect. (2004) or (2012)
Nothing beats the flood of RE games that hit the 'cube back in the day!

Good God that is a horrible redesign for Nemesis. What's with the stupid looking crooked nose? And the ridiculous looking skinny, long teeth? The OG design was 10x better than this. Hopefully, they fix it, or at least have it where they can change his model to something more like his OG one.

Partially may be fine. But the reason I think Capcom wouldn't outsource it fully is because after a downward spiral at the start of the generation, Capcom have been managed a lot better in recent years, and now they're as good as they've ever been again. So hopefully they won't take any major risks with their big titles. The RE spinoff is somewhat understandable, but I wouldn't gamble with RE3. Especially after how well received RE2 was, and the expectations ppl will have of its sequel.
That timeframe would explain why we're already seeing the cover art on PSN. Indicating a 2020 release. |
I see nothing unusual of allowing the other remaster before having the sales projection being exceeded.
They probably already have a high enough projection that would make money, they simply over achieved.

I agree. RE2 is one of the best games released this year, and it's not unusual to think that the developers knew they had something good on their hands as they were building it.
Also, Capcom's devs seem to have mastered the RE Engine. Making RE3 is probably a lot quicker than RE2, which was a lot quicker than RE7, with the groundwork already built.

It's noteworthy because just a few years before that, Capcom couldn't even greenlight the R&D budget for Street Fighter 5. One of its biggest franchises. And Street Fighter 5 certainly didn't help, as it had a poor launch. The game was rushed out with minimal content, because Capcom wanted to have it out before the Capcom Pro Tour started that year, in February. Marvel vs Capcom Infinite was their next big, from scratch, project. And that one failed spectacularly, and was never salvaged. I believe Resident Evil 7, in Feb 2017, was the first big new project for them that ended up being a hit on home consoles. And the starting point of their comeback.
You can read my comment above for my thoughts on that. RE7 was released exactly 3 years after it started development.

Your reasoning makes sense.
But your initial post is what got the confusion. If you had said that you didn't expect they to greenlight before RE2 shipped to great acclaim you tied it more to being before they discover they outdid their forecast.
But yes From the comments that they didn't had budget for SF5 without the help from Sony (so it would take a lot longer to release) to being able to make 2 remakes almost simultaneously is a little odd.
But perhaps they made the PS1 way on the shared assets and team so the additional cost of RE3 was small compared to just RE2.

Professional artists can also do bad artworks, ya' know.
But it looks fine to me, personally. Everything.
My bet with The_Liquid_Laser: I think the Switch won't surpass the PS2 as the best selling system of all time. If it does, I'll play a game of a list that The_Liquid_Laser will provide, I will have to play it for 50 hours or complete it, whatever comes first.

Yeah, I left out a lot of details to save some time, in case it was already known to the reader, and to not make it too long. It was "finally" approved, after passionate fan request. It looks like something happened at Capcom around that time, where they went from being very frugal with their budget, to greenlighting multiple large scale games and taking risks again. But whoever made some of these 'risky' decisions at that time (and that includes moving Monster Hunter from portable to home console) are probably looking pretty good right now in the eyes of Capcom's higher ups. |
Yep whoever took the lead to approve MHW, RE7 and RE2R made some good decision and will be well seem by higher ups.
I'm sure I liked the REs decision and although I don't play MH people have really show support for it.

Marvel Vs. Capcom is a long running series, and infinite used tons of assets of Marvel Vs. Capcom 3, which did not look good when moved over to the new engine. It was a very ugly game, with characters no one wanted, and going against a far superior tag team game, which had 3v3, when MvC went back to 2v2. It is by no means, a "from scratch" game, when 75% of it is just the previous game's assets.
It's like saying any of the Tekken games are "from scratch" when they're all built over the previous games, using decades old animation, and the first game was a Virtua Fighter clone.
Considering how much Resident Evil 3's setting overlaps with Resident Evil 2, the time span doesn't seem too wild. Jill is walking through the same police station Claire was in. If I'm not mistaken, the first time around, things were minimally edited, and taken from different angles in RE3. How much is this police station really going to change over the course of a few weeks?
Knowing that they'd make Resident Evil 3, just after Resident Evil 2, I'm sure they wouldn't have made things too complicated for themselves.
