Aight niggas, here's my ultra short review and impressions:
Resident Evil 3 is simply a joy to look at, it's crisp, visually pleasing and it features some really cool scenes and environments from the chaos of Racoon city. The game is fast-paced, like a movie, that doesn't let go of you, and it's simply a fun but short ride.
I like the reworked story that ties in with the RE2 remake, but I understand that isn't everybodys cup of tea, and that's fine. You can always play the originals. As such, the remakes almost feels like a entirely new game on its own.
But how does it compare to the original Resident Evil 3? And how is it as a remake?
Tougher to answer, indeed. Diehard fans of vanilla RE3 will definitely feel disappointed with this remake, as there are cuts here and there in content and in the story and especially how Nemesis is implemented.
People wanting a 1:1 remake will definitely feel angered, and expectations not met. It is what it is.
I think the Remake gives a fresh take on the story of Jill, and how she's been researching and doing detective work on Umbrella, the game starts you off in medias res, and it goes full on from there. You might say it starts in the middle of the orignal RE3, and that's okay.
Nemesis is for the most part pretty cool, and I like that he doesn't chase you around for hours on end. I would have used abit more Normal Nemesis encounters and more areas, but that's ok.
Would I have wished the game was a bit longer? Sure! Do I mind that it isn't? No! Because what we got, was really really fucking fun and entertaining. Quality over Quantity, niggas!
For whatever reason, Capcom seems to have wanted RE3R to be much quicker, and fast-paced, and they wanted to clear up some of the story. In that sense, it ties in with RE2R perfectly, but leaves vanilla fans in the dust. RE3R is a weaker remake than RE2R, but it's still fun as hell. Sadly, Capcom should maybe have fleshed out the game abit more, which means more neemsis encounters, more open areas to explore, and perhaps a longer story with carlos and jill. Heres to hoping for dlcs.
