I paid around 20 dollars in my country due to regional pricing. I would be disappointed if i had paid 60. It's a good game. But it's too short.
I don't agree. I don't think devs should just assume people are gonna replay their game. I haven't replayed a game in 15 years. I see a lot of games and developers do this and when I see quotes from creators it's always like "...when you're on your second playthrough...." and I'm like why the hell are you assuming people are gonna replay your game? Get over yourself. I mean, if you specifically designed it in a structure that is based on scenarios or whatever that can't feasibly be done in one run, then that's one thing, but to design a game just expecting people to replay it is really lame. If a game isn't specifically designed to have multiple playthroughs and story lines within the structure, no games should have missables in the year 2020 within reason. At the very least they should give you a damn warning when you pass a point of no return. That in itself is lazy game design. Plenty of games give you that "you sure you wanna go there, once you do there's no going back *hint hint*"
Do yourself a favor, and don't play survival horror games.
One of my favorite genres, I play pretty much all of them. Most of them have adapted to the modern times.
I think designing a game around replayability is beyond most games in modern times.
RE2 was infinitely more replayable than RE3 and RE2 allowed you to backtrack and pickup almost any item in the game you missed, even when you advanced to other areas you were able to backtrack to the HQ and get them.
I suppose you have a point. With RE3R being more set piece-y and linear, exploration isn't as encouraged. However, there are a couple safe-guards: the shotgun and grenade launcher will respawn in the save room before the clock tower Nemesis fight, as well as in the save room in NEST 2 incase you missed them.
I don't even think it was that big of a deal, but as a completionist it annoyed me. Having one thing I missed in the entire game, one hip pouch was all I missed. And it turns out once you enter the sewers that is the point of no return for the beginning area of the game, not once you emerge from the sewers, because once you enter the sewers you can't backtrack out of them and once you leave you can't reach the other parts of Racoon City anymore, they're all blocked off. All they really had to do was have Jill mumble to herself before you enter the sewers "once go in here, I'm probably not gonna be able to make me way back..." and then a prompt come up that asks are you sure you want to enter the sewers and I'd have done a once-around and make sure I didn't miss anything.
Fact. It hyped me up for a lot of exploring, I couldn't wait to do the remake's version of the things from the original. I saw the gas station in the demo and looked forward to going there. Turns out the hose wasn't shifted forward in the story though, they just loved cutting parts out. I should have known how much was cut when the safe puzzle in the demo used up the medicine puzzle.
One of the few things that disappointed me as well... The only other thing was Carlos' emergency move. Wish he had a dodge as well, no need for the counterattack.
It's there, in higher difficulties.
I noticed this too, especially with the grenade launcher.
RE6 actually sold really well, in fact it's Capcom's third best selling game after Monster Hunter & RE5. What's amazing is that Capcom went back to slowed down survival horror with RE7 rather than making more assured bank off the RE5/6 formula. You can fault Capcom for many things, but with RE7 they actually listened to franchise fans rather that the sound of their cash register.
Actually, that's not entirely true.
The thing about RE6 is while its sales look good on paper, both the budget and marketing budget for that game was insane. Of course they did acknowledge they do want both the praise along with the monies.
I didn't say anything about RE7 being more or less profitable, though. Only that at the time RE5 & 6 sold well and that Capcom decided not to take the safe road by going back to survival horror. RE7 turned out to be a winning bet for them and a benefit in terms of fan appreciation.
Smh disappointed in you. You're way more brutal than me about these games. It's not what you want but it's not complete garbage, it's just mediocre. There's some quality in the things you don't value the series for. I'm still thinking this game is a 6/10 and RE2 remake is a 7 along with the original. I'd rate original RE3 an 8.5
Lol yeah I know, like I said, I was doing that 8+ times in a fight and unloading everything into his red rocket dick and he wouldn't die. I think I was at the 40% damage reduction.
No extra modes.
