Resident Evil 3 now has three main types of active dodging available to players, and each one is tied to the same button. Which one is triggered is determined entirely by the timing of the player as they perform the dodge. It takes some time to master, but with practice, dodging will be an extremely useful technique for play
An update one should certainly expect from a Resident Evil 4 remake is the refinement of the mobility and aiming mechanics. Resident Evil stuck with the tank-controls aiming technique for the longest time, but eventually evolved to allow for more freedom of movement without sacrificing the series’ evocative feeling of vulnerability. Resident Evil 2 Remake is a prime example of this , eschewing the stationary aiming design and allowing players to reposition ever so slowly. But on the flipside of this, the remake should be careful not to slip too far from the original game’s constraints. Resident Evil 4 ‘s weapon aiming had realistic weapon shake where every slight adjustment required the upmost precision. A Resident Evil 4 remake shouldn’t lose that aspect of its tactical gameplay, but should at least allow for more mobility in com
One of the most iconic villains of the Resident Evil franchise, and one that defines Resident Evil 3 in particular, the Nemesis will of course be making his return. The Nemesis in Resident Evil 3 will have a slightly new look , though, which may take some getting used
For those unaware, Resident Evil 3: Remake isn’t just a remaster with better graphics, but a completely reimagined version of the game. As with any remake, it is important that developers reinvigorate the beloved game with new and more modern ideas and mechanics, but equally important that they avoid changing too much so as to step on the toes of the original. So far, Resident Evil 3 Remake seems to be doing this well, as is evidenced by the spot-on recreations of its many, harrowing monst
Having said all that, is Capcom’s portrayal of Jill in the remake different from the original? With everything we know so far, the answer to that would be yes, Capcom did take a different approach in Jill’s personality, but the developers were still able to retain her overall character. She remains independent and capable, compassionate to others but tough on her enemies. Sure, she is a little bit sassier than her previous portrayals but her comebacks are always within rea
Given this, the personalities of both playable characters weren’t as fleshed-out, especially when compared to modern games. However, based on dialogue alone, Jill did not really embody the traits of a traditional video game heroine, and while she is capable enough to handle the situation she’s in, she lacked the flair and personality that is common in today’s video game protagonist. But in retrospect, even if it wasn’t intentional, Capcom’s portrayal of Jill in the first Resident Evil game does make sense, given that this game served as her origin story. Prior to the mansion incident, Jill has no experience in dealing with bioweapons, so it wouldn’t really make sense to portray her as a badass bioweapon killing machine when this is the first time that she even knew bioweapons exis
It’s worth noting that the remake is going to have better graphics and more clear resolution . Rather than focusing on that, notice key differences or similarities in the designs of each monster. Modern technology has the capability to make some truly horrifying stuff on screen, but conversely, sometimes showing too much can take away a sense of mystery and terror from something. This balance is what Resident Evil 3 Remake designers were tasked with finding, and they did a pretty solid
Of course, this is not to say that Jill’s previous portrayals were bad, in-fact they still remain iconic and became foundations of Capcom’s approach to her redesign. But nostalgic glasses aside, Capcom’s latest portrayal of Jill Valentine, with her toned-down realistic outfit , and a stronger personality, is a step in the right direction, which hopefully, will remain consistent with any other appearances she may have in future Resident Evil ga
Resident Evil 4 , though featuring plenty of familiar cramped spaces that the franchise was known for, was the first game to truly blow the world out into a more vast, Open World racing-air world. The game still remained true to the core of Resident Evil , but Resident Evil 4 was revolutionary not only for the franchise but for games in general. Despite being confined to the series’ trademark tank controls, the game was incredibly innovative in perfecting the third-person shooter genre. The over-the-shoulder camera design in Resident Evil 4 greatly succeeded where many other precursor games had experimented and failed in previously. Some of the best third-person shooters released since 2005 have Resident Evil 4 to thank for its incredible aiming technol
Though Breath of Fire has mainly been exclusive to the Japanese gaming market in recent times, the original Breath of Fire was released on Super Nintendo in North America in 1994, though it is considered a sleeper hit by many JRPG enthusiasts, especially in comparison to other SNES classics such as Earthbound and Dragon Que
