| lightbleeder said: Yeah well the thing with Resident Evil now is that it isn't survival horror anymore, now it is survival action, there are certainly parts in RE4 where you are being followed by a lot of "zombies" and you are desperate closing windows and doors and throwing ladders so the enemies don't attack you, I loved that feeling and it felt very "survival", everytime I heard the chainsaw my heart started pumping a lot. But the regular "zombies" in RE4 didn't scare me at all, I need real zombies with really scary faces to make me shit my pants! I want RE to be survival horror again! With normal sized people! |
I definitely agree with this. I miss the days of RE1, 2 and 3. I wish Capcom could have just made a new IP with the RE4 idea and left the RE series the way it was. RE is pretty much dead in my book. The RE's now are totally new games. I'm not saying RE4 and 5 are bad. They're good games, just not in the same genre as the original Resident Evils.
The originals felt like a truggle to survive in scaryland while the new one feel like a butt-kick festival. The characters now seem clearly up to the task unlike before. I understand that capcom changed the series to gain more appeal and $$$ which is why I seem to dislike capcom more and more.
